From today Guy Fawkes Day - Play School can be seen on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays on BBC-1. It will, of course, also be seen every weekday, usually in colour, on BBC-2.

They are sometimes joined by visiting story-tellers.

Above all I am not concerned with Poetry. My subject is War, and the pity of War. The Poetry is in the pity.
Wilfred Owen was perhaps the greatest of the young English poets who were killed in the First World War. Most of his later poems were conceived and written in the trenches in France. In writing them he tried to bring home to civilians in England the futility and wretchedness not only of trench life but of the war itself.
The Poet Laureate C. Day-Lewis tells the story of Owen's life and introduces readings from the poems and letters by Peter Wyngarde, Alan Dobie and Keith Barron
