BBC Two - Dylan Thomas: A Poet's Guide

Owen Sheers examines the work of Dylan Thomas.

Documentary in which Welsh poet Owen Sheers examines the works of Dylan Thomas, and reveals him as both a visionary and a craftsman.

Famous for his womanising, drinking and tragic death, Dylan Thomas is the rock star of 20th-century poetry. But for Welsh poet Owen Sheers, his tempestuous life often obscures the power of his poetry. Sheers takes us on a journey that reveals Dylan Thomas as a visionary and a craftsman.
