No 鈥渨eeee, sleekit, cowrin, tim鈥檙ous beastie鈥 appears in this week鈥檚 programme, but the man behind the poem - Robert Burns - is the focus of the chat as we talk about his influence on poetry and song. There鈥檚 another opportunity to hear Helen Mark鈥檚 very colourful 鈥渁ddress to the haggis鈥 as we remember the essential elements 鈥 including food and drink 鈥 of a traditional Burns Night. There鈥檚 music from Armagh singer Janet Dowd and Diana Culbertson who鈥檚 accompanied by the Dunloy Accordian Band.
Guests Paula McIntyre and Dr Frank Ferguson join Helen, Rab Lennox and Jonnie Crawford for this week鈥檚 programme.
