Martin on the Beeb

Being stuck at home with a cold (a sore throat and hacking cough not being conducive to conducting an all-day course) I finally edited the streams of some Martin Shaw BBC interviews from this past January and turned them into MP3s. The interviews are mostly about A Man for All Seasons, but he does mention Pros, and not altogether unhappily.

I've uploaded them on YSI for now. If the links run out, comment and I'll uploaded them again.

On the Steven Wright show here

On the Woman's Hour here

Participating in a discussion about sexy voices on the Woman's Hour here

Reading a John Donne poem, as proof of his sexy voice, here

Nice! Thanks for these (and, boy, does he ever have a sexy voice.)

I could just listen to him read that poem over and over.

Oh wait, I have done.

His dirty laugh at the beginning of the poem...I need a cold shower!

I purchased The Silmarillion read by Martin Shaw. That blew the top of my head off.

It's when he hits the line "unlace yourself" that I become rather warm.

I just picked up The Silmarillion myself. Can't wait to start in on it.
