Omnibus

on BBC One London

Building for a New Age: a Romanian Story. Lenuta and Marin Sorescu had their family home and belongings bulldozed into a hole.
Elisabeta Kosy lives with her seven children in such a polluted area that she has to wash her chickens with detergent before she can cook them. Until his execution on Christmas
Day 1989, Nicolae Ceausescu was both Romania's president and chief architect. His House of the Republic was nearing completion,
25,000 flats a year were being built and villages had been obliterated. In the aftermath of the 1989 revolution, Omnibus visits Romania and talks to some of the people who are having to rebuild their lives. Producer Ian Potts Editor Andrew Snell
