EIGHT-year-old Owain Pryce, from Kimbolton St James Primary School, has made it to the grand finals of Off by Heart, to be screened on BBC2 tomorrow night, with his recitation of The Pig by Roald Dahl.

Anne-Marie Dossett, Herefordshire Libraries’ reader development librarian, said: “Owain really brought the poem to life.”

A young poet laureate competition is also taking place to find Herefordshire’s most talented young poet – for more details visit herefordshire.
