Michael Freedland speaks to Israeli opposition leader Shimon Peres, covers the plight of the jailed Soviet Jewish ‘refusenik’, Anatoly Sharansky – and hears Israel’s Eurovision winning song, Abanibi. He also speaks to the organisers of the Ideal Kosher Home exhibition – and there’s a reflection from actor and writer Robert Rietti. This is a programme from the BBC archive, originally broadcast on BBC Radio in the 1970s. Aspects of the programme reflect the time when it was made and due to rights considerations, the music may be shorter than in the original programme.
