Tony's List: From Poland With Love




Fascinating People, Fascinating Places show

Summary: <p>Episode 2 of 3</p> <p>As the Cold War was winding down, a group of 11 East European teenagers -- barely known to each other -- appeared on the playground at St. Mary's Roman Catholic School in Bishop's Stortford, a quiet town 30 miles from London. How would the town, and their new classmates react to their arrival? And why had they come? In this peculiar three-part story, I recount a tale of daredevil escape, a fake passport, war, the end of communism, and the remarkable story of these 11 people.</p> <p><a href="https://pixabay.com/music/" target="_blank"><strong>Music: Pixabay</strong></a></p> <p><strong>Featured Guests: Kazik Bem, Neil Rodrigues, Marta Kazmierska-Skupinska, Tony Wood</strong></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/daniel-mainwaring5/message
