Poetry in Motion, Larkin and Keats
Article Abstract:
Poet Andrew Motion does not feel that he will ever become a true people's poet, even though he does sometimes criticize popular works. He has written literary biographies of both Philip Larkin and John Keats. He first encountered Keats while still at school, and this is what made him decide to become a poet. He published his first poem at the age of 20 and his first collection at the age of 25. He was literary executor for Larkin, and preserved all Larkin's papers apart from some explicit diaries.

Article Abstract:
There are undeniably some faults with some of the BBC's comedy programming. However, it is wrong to claim that the BBC's latest situation comedies are not as good as its previous ones. Even if situation comedies have changed, this is probably a good thing. It is important to accept that some situation comedies will inevitably be unsuccessful. It must also be realized that the BBC is producing a lot more comedy than it did in the past, so the number of failures will also go up.

Not your regular cowboys
Article Abstract:
Country music group the Mavericks has become extremely successful, and in Oct 1995 won the Vocal Group of the Year award at the Country Music Association Awards. This is a considerable achievement for a group which does not have the origins traditionally associated with country music. It has four members, which is unusually large for country music, and they come from Miami Beach, which is also not associated with country music.
