Five to Eleven

Five to Eleven

"Five to Eleven" was a popular television programme on BBC 1 in the 1980s. It ran for three years between 1986 and 1989. Different celebrities of the day presented poems or short readings in a simple format. The programme was screened at 10.55am each weekday morning, which explains the title.

Celebrity hosts included Richard Briers, Amanda Redman, Annette Crosbie, Judi Dench, Patricia Routledge, Emma Thompson, Joanna Lumley and even Sir Laurence Olivier (in December 1987).
