November 8th - Wall's Well That Ends Well: Remembering the Fall of the Berlin Wall

from Simon Calder's Independent Travel Podcast

I am talking to Harald Henning, director of the German National Tourist Office in the UK, in a tiny Trabant car. Almost 35 years ago he bought one in Berlin for £25 and drove it to London as a competition prize. He recalls the unification of German – and talks about what makes the capital so special.This podcast is free, as is Independent Travel's weekly newsletter.
