Now I will hold my hands up and shamefully admit, that I had never heard of either Arthur Ransome nor Michael Hordern before I happened upon these delightful videos on youtube.
Some people will call these rubbish and nothing more than pompous waffle as was left in a comment on youtube. The same type of comments I have heard said on my favourite sporting author ''BB''s writings romantic rubbish.! Well I like this sort of thing and if only someone could do something similar with BB's writings and bring them to life as Michael Hordern does with Arthur Ransomes essay's.
I'm on episode ten at present and eager for more.
