A must for GCSE students
This is an excellent way to help students initially engage in poetry. It is thought provoking and therefore suitable for the more able student too.

Useful!
Well narrated by a pair who ask and answer questions with each other. Not useful as an introduction to the anthology but very useful as a revision tool.

GCSE’s do not have cheat codes!
Whilst helpful to reinforce knowledge, DO NOT count on this to teach yourself in the first instance, I would recommend videos by mr bruff on YouTube.

Grrrrr!
Good ideas for readers to consider but how can you make a claim for iambic rhythm, then add syllables when pronouncing words? It’s ‘ev’ry’, not ‘ev-e-ry’. There are other blunders, too, and the humour is too forced. There is to much interpolation for this to be valuable to students. It could be very misleading.
