In this cultural, musical and informative link to Poland, Bozena Wilson, and her team of regulars, ensure an interesting evening’s listening.

Illustrious guests on Poles Apart have included Lech Walesa, former President of Poland, and - on a musical note - members from the Myslovitz Band. 

Famous guests

Monika Rozanski, the programme’s co-presenter, whose flair for interviewing is now legendary, has talked to Film Directors such as Agnieszka Holland, and General Anders’s widow, Irena Anders - herself a revered historical figure, who enlightened listeners with her fascinating life story.

Locals also pop in for a chat, and give their views on the goings on around Coventry and Warwickshire as seen through their eyes.

With part of the broadcast in English, the programme aims to capture the interest of anyone who may want to visit Poland or just learn about her rich and diverse culture. Poles Apart is there to whet their appetites too.
