BBC Two - Dylan Thomas: A Poet in New York

Dramatisation of the last days of the poet Dylan Thomas in New York in 1953.

Drama charting Dylan Thomas's last days in New York in 1953, where triumph turned into an elegy.

In 1953 Dylan Thomas went to New York for the last time, his marriage a wreck, his drinking out of control. He was on his way to meet Stravinsky and to wallow in New York acclaim - but what was he escaping? How did such a triumph become a requiem? The last days of a great poet.

Knowledge, drama, comedy and the arts for a broad adult audience.

BBC Two is a lively channel of depth and substance, carrying a range of knowledge-building programming complemented by great drama, comedy and arts.
