Panorama- Steve Rosenberg.

Constantly amazed that he hasn’t been deported, like Sarah Rainsford.

We watched the programme which enhanced our admiration for him as a talented journalist and a very likeable and decent individual.

I always feel relieved when he reports that he is well and able to do so. Long may that continue.

I didn't watch it but do see his regualr reports on Youtube. I think he is the only person giving reliable reportage from Russia.

Another tick for the BBC!

I, too, was in Russia in the early 90s, just as glasnost was dawning. I was part of a school trip to Leningrad(as was) and then Moscow. It was an overwhelming positive experience. I was the Russian speaker on the trip with my very limited Russian and people were friendly and helpful. We spoke with an English speaking teacher who had lived through the leningrad siege and famine. She was incredibly interesting and her story moving.

I was in Russia in the 90 s (not living there) but they were amongst the most hospitable people I ve come across they were very kind caring and loved to sing and dance real party animals (the vodka helped) Such a shame our country could become the same if it get the vile Far right to lead the way

Oh dear. I see the same if this far left Gov stays in power, which thank goodness is unlikely. The crackdown on free speech, jailing those who offend, rather than sex predators. Two tier policing, cracking down on Christians praying, while allowing Muslims to pray en masse in the streets. Allowing violent protestors to assault a woman carrying a union flag. Putting immigrants, illegal, needs above the British citizens needs and social housing. . It's only going to get worse, and the sleaze is growing daily. Sooner gone the better.

A friend flew his light aircraft from Alaska to Russia about 10 yrs ago, they were surprised but very friendly and helpful he even spent the winter there. Even Eastern Siberia was very westernized with KFC and Starbucks. He was not allowed to continue to China, so flew to Japan where he had to land on a golf course and broke his plane, that finished his round the world flight,

Such an interesting programme. His love for the Russian people shone through. He is such a talented man. I remember seeing a programme where he played the piano beautifully by ear. Well done Panorama.

Wasn't it interesting, calendar. He seems such a likeable man.

It was a very interesting programme. So sad when he talked about how wonderful it was to live in Russia in the 90's, and how things drastically changed once Putin was in power.

I often wonder how much longer they will tolerate him being there. He spoke of how he 'fell in love' with Russia.
