Sir Harold Wilson, Gregory Peck and Ben Helfgott

Available for over a year

Michael Freedland discusses the Israel-Egypt peace accord with former British prime minister Sir Harold Wilson and Labour MP Eric Moonman. He talks to Hollywood legend Gregory Peck about his new film, The Boys from Brazil, in which Peck plays the notorious Nazi, Dr Josef Mengele. There’s a despatch from Israel, as it prepares to host the Eurovision Song Contest, an interview with former British Olympic weightlifter Ben Helfgott about the 1980 Games being staged in Moscow, a discussion of the position of Jews in South Africa – and reflections from Harry Blacker. 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, the sound quality is at times poor and due to rights considerations, the music may be shorter than in the original programme.
