Re watched this last night -originally recorded from BBC TV one Christmas IIRC.

Did anyone else ever see it? Story of the defection of Rudolf Nureyev - a massive news story in 1961 - splashed all over front pages.
An astonishing young Russian dancer plays Rudolf - so much like him it’s uncanny.
Don’t know whether it’s still available anywhere, but highly recommended. Also for chilling reminders of the Cold War and the KGB.

I remember watching this years ago. It was terrific and I'd love to see it again. Where can I find it?

I just checked the iplayer and Netflix, but no luck.
Nothing on Amazon either, but google found some DVDs for sale, one was £9.99.
If I didn’t have the recording, I think I’d treat myself!
