Kintra: Prose, poetry, music and Doctor Who!

Prose, poetry, music and Doctor Who!

BBC Radio Ulster - Kintra, Prose, poetry, music and Doctor Who!

More Yarns, a writing competition, a musical challenge and a very unique poem.

We’re out and about once again this week with all three presenters on the road. Rab is in Ballymena for the launch of another edition of ‘Yarns’ while Helen visits the Linenhall Library to find out who has won the poetry section of the Ulster Scots Writing Competition. Meanwhile, it’s payback for  Rab who takes Willie out of his comfort zone to try his hand playing pipes and drums. And finally – a treat for fans of Doctor Who!
As always, listeners are invited to contact the programme with a good Ulster-Scots yarn or event to talk about. The easiest way to do that is by email - kintra@bbc.co.uk.
