Geoff Moore... Vienna

Off to Vienna for one week looking at 'Third Man' legacy now celebrating 50 years since the film was made in the city in 1949 starring Trevor Howard and of course Orson Welles. There are tours, above and below ground plus a museum only open on saturdays and a cinema that shows the film every day. Also off to see a wine growing area outside the city where some of the old wine storage cellars have been turned into holiday homes!
