The picture on the back of my A-level core text copy of Skirrid Hill made pretty much my whole English class fall in love with Owen Sheers. His voice is quite sexy too. :)

I'd love to see this series on You Tube if it is possible.

This sounds like a book worth getting to know, one compiling 20th century British landscape painting with 20th century poetry is one I would love to see. The Hayward Gallery had just such an exhibition many years ago. Now we are firmly in the 21st Century the time is perhaps right for such an evaluation.
