John recites with the dignity and expression that I think would be the way Kipling would have wanted it read himself. Thanks for this recitation of a classic poem. It is a joy to find this video.
I agree, his voice is unique. His sentence stress as Inspector Barnaby is amazing. When I have time I'll try to make a video to show what I mean by this!
Wonderful poem and amazing voice *_*

I am happy to learn English following series, John Nettles is a really great actor, it will be difficult to change him in the "Midsomer Murders".
What a voice in poetry reading, awesome.Sonnets of Shakespeare with so a brillant could be a summit.

I would add that John Nettles and the film crew were staying in an hotel in Wales two years ago while I was visiting the area. A thorough gentleman.
