Reliably excellent programming from Neil McPherson. This time he brings on Scottish director and actor Matthew Zajac, who tells the story of the 20th century itself through the person of his Polish father Mateusz, tailor, soldier and exile. One-man show that is never less than gripping as it crosses decades and continents effortlessly in Zajac's fluent writing and vivid acting (I counted at least 4 languages that he spoke in this show, could have been more).
