Must try to catch the Paul Robeson documentary at 10 tonight or, more likely, hear it on Listen Again. The synopsis mentions passport difficulties in 1957. These must have been resolved by 1958, as PR visited the UK that year. Tony Benn writes in his diary that he entertained PR to tea on the terrace of the House of Commons and found him to be one of the most compelling people he'd ever met.
