Worldwide special report
How were Grunwick, Southern Africa, human rights, the arms race and other such issues reported to the Soviet Union's 200 million TV viewers during the year? With little opportunity of reading the western press or travelling abroad, television brings most Russians their only glimpse of the world outside.
Moscow TV has 50 correspondents around the world but they don't only cover the hard international stories. In this year's output from Britain, Russian viewers saw a report on the Loch Ness Monster and Sherlock Holmes.
Martin Bell, awarded the top British TV journalist title for his foreign coverage, talks with Boris Kalyagin, Moscow's new London correspondent, about their respective jobs and the view of the world as seen on Soviet screens.
