The Iron Curtain of Europe being lifted came a little too late to be part of the original ten episodes but just in time to have its own episode. Patrick Watson visits some of the major cities of what then was the USSR, just in time to provide a glimpse at what was going on. Mr Watson speaks with people on the streets, politicians, and even with some of the big names in CPSU. In all he visits Moscow, Bucharest, Warsaw, and Gdańsk as he travels by train from late February through the first week of March 1990.
