Derek Nimmo is joined by the great raconteur - actor, director, writer and impressionist Peter Ustinov. In a wide-ranging interview, he discusses the dangers of working with horses on film and orchestras on the stage. He also shares some observations from his time in the United States of America, his thoughts on the state of the world, religion, poverty, sex and how - in order to make sense of global events - he invented an imaginary country and considers how it would conduct itself on the world stage.
Finally, he tells a story about being picked up by a Soviet taxi driver in New York.
