Rupert Loydell and Dr. Kym Martindale, both poets, writers and lecturers, read from a range of poems by W.S. Graham. Graham, born in Scotland, moved to Cornwall in 1944 where he made many friends amongst the artistic community of St. Ives. Some of these friendships are mourned in his moving elegies for St Ives artists Roger Hilton, Bryan Wynter and Peter Lanyon.
