Hong Kong - Qingdao
'A different adventure every day....'
In the last of this series of four programmes the QE2 reaches the two Chinas - capitalist and communist.
At Hong Kong 2,000 workers swarm over the liner - and leave her whiter than white. At Qingdao in Red China the city almost comes to a halt as the cruisers disembark.
Made-up children chant their doll-like welcomes to these 'visitors from another planet', while in the stadium, before 20,000 Chinese, the QE2 football team takes on Qingdao's best.
Nigel Broakes , the man who in effect owns the QE2, talks about her future - and his passengers reflect upon their comfortable adventure ... Film editor IAN PITCH
