Starting at Singapore, he travels by road and rail through Malaya to Northern Thailand.

'The lovely cool hills of Chieng Mai... I imagine when men disappear from home for ever, they must finish up in places like this.'
In this last programme in the series Johnny travels 500 miles north of Bangkok to the ancient city of Chieng Mai. Here he comes across a village entirely devoted to the making of umbrellas and parasols, and visits the Mieow-a primitive hill tribe, in the remote Northern mountains. He also sees some exciting sword-fighting, classical dancing, elephants at work with teak, and Thai boxing, the rules of which would not have suited the Marquess of Queensberry.
