Scotland's Cold Warrior
Allan Little talks to nonagenarian Frank Meehan about his extraordinary postwar career that encompassed ambassadorships to Czechoslovakia, Poland and East Germany.
Frank Meehan is 93 years old and quietly enjoying his retirement in Helensburgh. But it's what he retired from which marks Frank out as remarkable. He served at the heart of the Cold War for more than 40 years, in a career which took him from the aftermath of the Second World War, through the Gary Powers incident, to terms as ambassador for Czechoslovakia, Poland and East Germany.
Allan Little talks to him about an extraordinary life on the front line.
