BBC Radio 4 Loose Ends - John Cooper Clarke + Jackie Kay + Antony Szmierek
Join Stuart Maconie and guests for a special festival edition of BBC Radio 4's Loose Ends.
You can expect the show's trademark wit and freewheeling conversation as well as sparkling music performance all laced with the CSL live magic.
Guests include the legendary poet and comic John Cooper Clarke - "the bard of Salford" and former Scots National poet or Makar Jackie Kay, who turned to writing as an escape from bullies and kept going when she realised her words made everybody sit up and listen.
With music from "alt-pop poet" Antony Szmierek's much anticipated new album.
