Excess Baggage

on BBC Radio 4 FM

Michael Palin 's Iron Curtain. 1: Trieste. "From Szczecin.... to Trieste ..., an iron curtain has descended across the Continent" -Winston Churchill , 1946. In the first of two special editions of the travel programme, Michael Palin explores Trieste and how it was forced to play as a bordertown between East and West, capitalism and communism - and he gets to drink some pretty good wine as well.
