Frederick Forsyth is the phenomenally successful author of such books as The Day of the Jackal and The Dogs of War. He has come back from Ireland to live in Britain and tonight he talks about his book The Devil's Alternative.

Plus Yuri Krotkov, who worked for the Russian secret service, defected to the West, and has now used his intimate knowledge of the Russian leadership to write a highly-acclaimed book about Boris Pasternak, The Nobel Prize.
