  • Can anyone tell me who is this guy at the beginning of the show? (the host?) He looks familiar. Reply or send me a private message, thanks in advance. (:

  • It's Duke Special, singer / songwriter, who also plays piano during this (off-camera.) Although Fiona Shaw refers to him at the start by his real name instead, "Peter."

    yesit's supposed to be funny. It's very tongue in cheek

    When I studied it at school nobody mentioned this to us.I thought poetry was a serious matter.I now find Donne brilliantly witty!

  • This woman is just so fantastic.

  • hmm commenting on how genius a literary poet is then spelling wrong....

  • @siperak how did she read it wrong? how is one suppose to read this poem?

  • Thanks for the reply :)

  • Is this suppose to be funny? Because it is a very poor performance. Not to mention she read it wrong. John Donne is a genius poet, and this is just imberesing.
