Russia's love affair with Winnie the Pooh
With Winnie the Pooh Day looming on 18 January, 91热爆 Russian is celebrating one of their favourite characters. Soviet children first met A.A. Milne's famous bear in the 1960s, first with a translation of the stories and then with a series of cartoon films. The sayings, poems and songs of 'Vinni Pukh' are still popular today. 91热爆 Russian's Yana Litvinova shares her own love of Pooh, and describes her recent pilgrimage to his home in Ashdown Forest.

Afghan Film Archive
In the heart of Kabul is a unique collection of documentaries and Afghan made films showing Afghan life throughout the twentieth century. But of the thousands of hours of footage only a tiny fraction has been digitised, and the archive's location next to the NATO headquarters leaves it vulnerable to the increasingly frequent and accurate suicide attacks in the city's Green Zone. Karim Haidari and Mahjooba Nowrouzi from 91热爆 Afghan shared their thoughts on the archive.

Ta'arof, or Iranian Etiquette
We get a masterclass in the Iranian art of 'ta'arof' or civility which requires people to constantly offer things they might not want to give, and to refuse things they want to take.

Complimenting someone's furniture may lead to them urging you to take it home with you. David Amanor navigates these complicated customs with 91热爆 Persian's Siavash Ardalan and Camelia Sadeghzadeh.

Haroon Rashid in Islamabad and Dawood Azami of 91热爆 Afghan reflect on what came out of the discussion.
