Roger McGough presents a selection of poetry about Winter, star-gazing and time, read by Pippa Haywood, Peter Marinker, Mark Meadows and Nadia Williams.

There are well-known works by Sheenagh Pugh and Alfred Tennyson contemplating the new year. Roger marks Stephen Hawking's 70th birthday with a poem by Robert Frost about the importance of telescopes.

Winter looms large, with poems by Longfellow, Edna St. Vincent Millay and Dana Gioia, but in contrast there are rays of sunshine from John Lyons.
