Bald Worm Share a Poetry (Programme) a Day: Off By Heart



Ask your parents to let you watch (either live - BBC 2 on Friday night - or on the BBC iplayer) a BBC special by Daisy Goodwin on performing poetry

Off By Heart follows primary school children from across the country as they take part in a national poetry recitation competition - the first of its kind.

The film follows 12 finalists who progress from regional heats to a grand final where they face a judging panel including Philip Pullman, Benjamin Zephaniah - author of 'Turkey Christmas' - and Dawn Postans, Head of Examinations at LAMDA.
