The programme the following week was described by ITN as being "about the changes in Soviet Russia. Former communist (and later British Chancellor) Denis Healey; novelist Tatania Tolstoya and other Russians including journalist Vitali Vitaliev and dissident Vladimir Bukovsky." The Communist journal "Unity" later wrote "The last time I saw Bukovsky was on a Channel 4 programme "After Dark" in which he slaughtered the drinks trolley and got up the nose of the former Labour leader ["sic"] Denis Healey who seemed to work out pretty early that this bloke was not the best of people."
