We visit the barn at Paul Costain's farm, Moorhouse, in Colby to join the ceremony at which the Seventh Manx Bard was named, robed and chaired. We hear Owen Atkinson reading some of his poetry and then telling us about how he works.

By the end of September, entries have to be in for Aundyr Brian Mac Stoyll, an award for creative work incorporating the Manx language made by the group, Pobble, in honour of the late Brian Stowell. Adrian Cain tells us about the sort of work that can be submitted.
