The Finger of God
The first in a series of four talks by the BBC's Foreign Affairs Editor, John Simpson , in which he looks back at the extraordinary events of 1989 and 1990, a period which saw the fall of communist regimes across eastern Europe. In the first programme, he looks at the breaching of the Berlin Wall and the role of Mr Gorbachev as the common denominator of change.
