Phil Collins, Carol Ann Duffy and Gillian Clarke, Patrick Ness
Phil Collins discusses his new memoir Not Dead Yet; Poets Laureate Carol Ann Duffy and Gillian Clarke on their anthology of 'essential poems'; Patrick Ness on Doctor Who.
As Phil Collins announces his return to the stage for his first live dates in 10 years, the former Genesis frontman discusses that and his new memoir Not Dead Yet.
Two laureates, Gillian Clarke, who was the National Poet of Wales, and Carol Ann Duffy, talk about The Map and the Clock, their new anthology that moves through 14 centuries, several languages and all over these islands, to present their choice of the poetry of Britain and Ireland.
Writer Patrick Ness is best known for his Carnegie-winning novels for young adults, including Monsters of Men and A Monster Calls. He discusses his first foray into television with Class, a new BBC spin-off of Doctor Who which sees a group of students try to save their school from attack.
