Christopher Cook and Sean Street are in Thomas Hardy country to continue their occasional series of literary landscapes. For many readers, Dorset and Thomas Hardy belong to each other, and tonight's programme explores the literary heritage of the past as well as the contemporary scene, discovering what it's like to live and work in the shadow of those great names.
Including a tour of Hardy's home, Max Gate , and a visit to the Dorset County Museum, familiar to Hardy himself, to learn about plans for a new Writer's Gallery celebrating the literature of the county. Plus poet Selima Hill - a Dorset resident - and music from the Yetties.
Producer Stella Hanson
