Ivan and the Dogs
Wed, 4 Nov 2009 23:43:44 -0000

the Dogs by Hattie Naylor is the true story of a boy who walked out of his
Moscow home at the age of 4 and spent two years living on the city streets
with a pack of wild dogs. Anyone else hear it? I was completely gripped by
it, and ha ...

Incidentally how long are they going to keep up this series of transmissions

built-in Freeview.
I did the obligatory re-set this morning on both and the DVDR is fine,

BBC2.
