Rebels

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Hugh Sykes examines the lives of five 20th-century people who rebelled against society's conventions and considers the price they had to pay for their acts of rebellion. Guy Burgess betrayed the British establishment and ended his days in lonely isolation in Moscow. However, to the end, he remained a lover of England. He said: 'I didn't spy for Russia. I was just working for peace.' The programme includes interviews with Guy's brother, Nigel Burgess , university friends and BBC colleagues. Researcher mike WOOLF
