1: Communism with Sugar on Top
Sugar, cigars, rum - the Cuban economy still depends heavily, as in pre-revolutionary days, on traditional symbols of luxury and wealth. Yet, 27 years into its Communist revolution, much of Cuba's trade is with the Soviet bloc thousands of miles away, while relations with its near-neighbour the USA are as bad as ever. What impact has
Communism had upon life in this Caribbean island, and how far have traditional Latin values survived?

'When I was a boy it was still not unreasonable to speculate about there being "a friend for little children above the bright, blue sky", the same who wanted me for a sunbeam: they needed a friend up there before penicillin. The latest edition of the MHB I've not seen. It's said to be in harmony with antibiotics, moon shots, black holes and weathermen, so it must have been severely mauled like the James I Bible and the Tridentine Mass.'
Reader Anthony Finigan Producer DAVID BYERS
