Remembering Bowie in Berlin

A week on, much has been written and said in the days since David Bowie's death was announced. Currently his work features very prominently in the charts here in Britain and around the world. Weekend takes a moment to look back at his life again: The Canadian-born travel writer Rory Maclean met Bowie when he was living in Berlin in the late 1970s. Maclean has described those times in his book 'BERLIN: Imagine a City' and gave us an extract.
