Tunes, chat and poet Jackie Kay
Mark Radcliffe presents a feast of top tunes and chats to poet Jackie Kay.
Mark Radcliffe presents solo, with a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast.
Today, ahead of National Poetry Day and 6 Music’s Way With Words season, Mark is joined by poet Jackie Kay. Scotland's Makar - or National Poet - from 2016 to 2021, Jackie discusses her work, her latest collection of poetry and a recent documentary.
Also on the show... a host of quality radio items including 'The Chain' - our world-famous list of over 8000 interconnected songs.
There’s also the chance to take part in ‘Tea Time Theme Time’, guessing the link between three top tunes.
Plus a finely balanced blend of new and old music, setting you up for a Sunday.
