Newsnight - Fall of the Berlin Wall

As the Berlin Wall starts to be taken apart as rapidly as it arose, Peter Snow and Olenka Frenkiel report from the city on how people on both sides of the divide are reacting to their new freedom of movement.

A studio discussion about future prospects is interrupted by Frenkiel, who brings in a piece of the wall, while Donald MacCormick in London speaks to David Shukman in East Berlin about the latest developments there.
