5. Sylvia Plath and Seamus Heaney

Charlie and Lee return for another week of poetic wonder, this time reading poems by Sylvia Plath and Seamus Heaney. They discuss the joy of youth, Lee's love/hate relationship with Seamus Heaney (which seems to develop throughout the episode) and how lovely Faber and Faber's books are!
