  • Beautifully read by a gent who is a credit to the acting profession. Many thanks for posting.

  • 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!

    Thanks for your comment.

  • Thank you, Nettles does it beautifully.

  • 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.

  • 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".

  • 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.
