Four Seasons - Poems for the Winter Solstice

Daljit Nagra revisits the BBC's poetry archive and selects 'Poems for the Winter Solstice' - a collection of seasonal poems celebrating the year's turning point.

Poets Caroline Bird and Vanessa Kissule join actors Simon Russell Beale, Juliet Stevenson, Anton Lesser and Siobhan Redmond to share readings of much loved and memorable verse. There is rain, snow, darkness and warmth to mark the shortest day of the year.

Producer: Sarah Adezzio & James Cook

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in 2018.
