Rob Rinder: TV judge says ‘history is repeating itself’ after travelling to Poland
TV judge Rob Rinder has warned “history is repeating itself” as refugees flee war in Ukraine.
The criminal barrister turned TV personality has travelled to eastern Europe in a bid to help the grandparents of Oksana Platero, his former partner on Strictly Come Dancing, safely cross the border into Poland.
