Rhyme and Rhythm

BBC Radio 2
on BBC Radio 2

Poetry forms the counterpoint to the music in this six-part series presented by Marjorie Lofthouse with Jenny Agutter and Peter Egan.
The easy rhythm of music is blended with the wryness of rhyme from writers ranging from the acerbic Americans Dorothy Parker and Judith Viorst , to the engagingly English Pam Ayres and the satirical Roger McGough.
Tonight's theme is Nighttime - a mix of spine-tingling readings and atmospheric music. A BroadVision production
