Thomas was one of the most popular poets in Wales in the last century. They married in 1940 and moved from Denbighshire to rural Montgomeryshire, where Thomas was appointed rector of St Michael’s in Manafon. In one of his poems, Thomas described his wife ‘at work/ always, mending the garment/ of our marriage’. Grant and Perowne are certainly excellent at carrying the excitement they feel upon entering a particular hotel into a conversation recorded months later. Grant and Perowne will be travelling further across the world in coming episodes.
