Whilst touring Hamlet in Moscow with the Shakespeare Memorial Theatre in 1958, Coral Browne is astonished to have Guy Burgess appear in her dressing room.

Having disappeared from England in 1951 together with fellow diplomat Donald Maclean, spy Burgess is a wanted man.

This full-cast dramatisation was originally broadcast on BBC World Service. 1 CD. 1 hr.
