Mikhail Gorbachev's Bristol visit during charity support

There was a special guest on a train from London to Bristol in 1993 when former Russian president Mikhail Gorbachev came to visit the city.

He was patron of local charity CLIC Sargent - Young Lives vs Cancer - and accepted an invitation to come to Bristol after the charity had raised funds to help cancer victims in Russia.

The former Soviet leader, who brought the Cold War to a peaceful end, has died aged 91 after a long and serious illness.
