Historic Russian Radio Announcer Yuri Levitan

LINK TO YURI LEVITAN'S FAMOUS SPEECH.

Today in our Russian class we were introduced to a very famous Russian.

In this speech, he introduces the speech with;

 Внимание! Говорит Москва

Attention, Moscow speaking.

As a child who grew up during the , 'Cold War', this is an amazing insight into Russian history.

The BBC is presenting a new series entitled the 'Cold War' and personally, I can't wait to see it!

THE COLD WAR BBC 

Punch and Judy. That's the way to do it!

How do you explain Punch and Judy?

It is part of the British Seaside culture.

Even today, it is still seen around the country, although nowadays, it is hardly PC! [Politically correct]

PUNCH AND JUDY ON THE WEB

Apparently in Russia this type of Street theatre is called PETRUSHKA?

Maybe you can confirm Olga?

In France of course there is  the Guignol of Lyon.

A very popular TV show called LES GUIGNOLS was also similar to a show in the UK called

 SPITTING IMAGE. 

Very funny and very popular, satirical , tongue in cheek, rude! humour
