High Adventure: The Face of Fu Manchu

BBC One
on BBC One London

Tonight's film in this season of adventure films starring Christopher Lee, Nigel Green
with Tsai Chin, James Robertson Justice.

Fu Manchu, the notorious Oriental master-criminal, embarks on a plan for world domination by means of a deadly poison distilled from the seeds of Tibetan poppies.
Sax Rohmer's famous arch-fiend returns to the screen after an absence of more than 20 years - now played by Christopher Lee - in an exciting tale in which Nayland Smith of Scotland Yard renews his pursuit of the seemingly indestructible Fu Manchu.
