The assassination of Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme remains an unsolved mystery. How did a lone gunman manage to murder him during the height of the Cold War, and why? Ros Taylor welcomes Jan Stocklassa to the Bunker to discuss his documentary, The Man Who Played With Fire, which attempts to answer once and for all: who killed Olof Palme?

“There is a 37 year long cover up at the root of this investigation.”
“He was not a run of the mill Swede, he wasn’t afraid to provoke people around the globe.”
“Sweden has never had a politician who was so hated.”
