We had the chance to squeeze in 'Shiaght Laa', and we think of Illiam Dhone, William Christian, by hearing a song by Brian Mac Stoyll, a poem of lament by Mona Douglas and an oration by Lewis Crellin being read by Stewart Bennett. 

As well as another lesson by Phil Gawne out of Edmund Goodwin's book, First Lessons in Manx, in 'Goll as Gaccan' we hear two chapters out of another book, written by George Kneale about the Voyage of Odin's Raven, and it's read by David Fisher.

In 'Claare ny Gael' there's a version in Manx of a story written by a famous author of strange horror stories, H P Lovecraft. This one is called The Terrible Old Man.
