BBC Radio Ulster - The Culture Cafe, From Heaney to a Hen Do - Steve Cavanagh, Jo Donnelly and Glenn Patterson

On The Culture Cafe, writers Steve Cavanagh and Glenn Patterson and actress Jo Donnelly.

Joining Marie-Louise Muir around the Culture Cafe table are writers Steve Cavanagh and Glenn Patterson and actress Jo Donnelly.

This week Marie-Louise Muir invites crime fiction writer Steve Cavanagh to discuss his new novel "Kill for me Kill for You", writer Glenn Patterson talks about the Autumn launch of his novellas "Two Summers" and Jo Donnelly chats about "The Hen Do" by Diona Doherty which she is appearing in soon and she is full of the joys of Seamus Heaney as her husband (actor Marty Maguire) recites "Mid Term Break" to her in the car on the way to BBC Broadcasting House Belfast, a poem she admits she has never heard before! The guests also discuss guilty pleasure box sets, albums and books, from "Wolf" to "Colony" to The Who. For 4 grown up people there is far too much sniggering. Enjoy!
