I've been listening to the #BBC 's #InOurTime for years now. The episode I heard today, about #WilfredOwen is perhaps unique. Rather than merely asking his guests questions, or to read a few lines, #MelvynBragg himself intervenes to read the end of *Dulce et Decorum Est*.

Poems that are dear to his heart, it seems. Merited.

(An unusual ending to the episode too...)
