with Paul Scofield as Alexander Solzhenitsyn in a biographical feature on the man who during his lifetime has become the USSR's most acclaimed writer and its most notorious opponent; who has been exiled twice, once to the borders of China and now to the West; and who, if he has nothing else in common with the Soviet regime is, at 55, the same age.

After the programme, at 9.0*, Ian McIntyre chairs a discussion on Solzhenitsyn and the cultural opposition in the USSR.
