Literary hiccup


A BBC video I can't embed: Welsh culture minister Rhodri Glyn Thomas announces Tom Bullough as winner of the Wales Book of the Year prize, only to correct himself when the beaming Bullough reaches the podium: it's not you, pal, it's Dannie Abse.

Congrats to the venerable Dannie, but heartfelt sympathy to the crestfallen Tom (and, of course, to the probably mortified minister).
