A special edition of the programme as Michael Freedland reports from Warsaw - in the company of survivors of the Holocaust, many returning to the city for the first time – to mark the 40th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising. Features Ben Helfgott, Menachem Cohen, Shlomo Lahat and many others. This is a programme from the BBC archive, originally broadcast on BBC Radio in the 1980s. Aspects of the programme reflect the time when it was made, the sound quality is at times poor and due to rights considerations, the music may be shorter than in the original programme.
