Exactly 41 years ago today, on 29 August 1930, the most isolated community in the British Isles leapt into the headlines. The island of St Kilda had been evacuated. One hundred and ten miles from the Scottish mainland, for years cut off and ignored, her tiny population had been struggling to survive. Finally they had given up.

In this film four of the islanders, as well as the resident nurse and the missionary's daughter, describe life on the island in those last years and the events which led up to the evacuation.

Introduced by Jeffery Boswall

There are 400 desert islands in the Red Sea waiting to be explored. They're the home of graceful gazelles, fast falcons, land hermit crabs that have forsaken the sea for a life in the air, and colourful fiddlers living between the tides. Mysterious mangroves reveal a strange water-bird, and underwater coral gardens house poster-coloured fish.

Starring Gregory Peck
with Thomas Mitchell, Vincent Price and Sir Cedric Hardwicke

The action, adventure and deep emotions of A.J. Cronin's famous story of a missionary in 19th-century China come vividly to life in this film version.
Gregory Peck in his first major screen role plays Father Francis Chisholm, the priest whose struggle against violence and banditry to establish his mission becomes its own reward.
