Franco Building with Jonathan Meades
BBC FOUR, 10.00PM As incontrovertibly iconoclastic as ever, the architecture and former food critic Jonathan Meades continues his occasional survey of dictators and their buildings by looking at Francisco Franco, the man who ruled Spain for over three decades. He feasts on the tower blocks of Benidorm and other resorts, scrutinises Franco’s mausoleum and assesses the darkest aspects of his reign in a documentary that may be provocative, but is most enjoyable as well.
