2: Hancock & Hamilton

Episode 2 of 3

Kevin Eldon looks at the links between comedy and poetry. With Poecia Tree, Hancock’s Half Hour and Paul Hamilton. From 2015.

Comedy and poetry have always had strong links, with many comics and poets blurring the boundaries.

Comedian Kevin Eldon continues his peek either side of the fine line that divides them.

The second of three programmes features:

Poecia Tree

Hancock’s Half Hour: The Poetry Society

Special guest Paul Hamilton.

Along the way there is a rich mix of poetry that might be funny, sometimes cringe-worthy, occasionally absurd, sporadically nonsensical, but often brilliant.

Producer: Luke Doran

Made for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 4 Extra and first broadcast in January 2015.
