liverpool saga

Posted by Catherine Jones on September 18, 2007 2:42 PM | 

I hope you've all had a chance to take a look at the Liverpool Saga which the Beeb has put online.
Much of it was read by Roger McGough at a special launch in the Small Concert Room at St George's Hall at the weekend.
He reworked the verse to give a flavour of the epic - complete with the odd groan and many laughs from the audience.
The Beeb is now looking at whether the 800 verse poem could be printed in a booklet form for people to buy and keep.
