Hong Kong
2: 'My great-grandfather had six wives....'
The Orient's rich and famous open their doors to Alan Whicker as he continues his series on the people of free-market Hong Kong, due to be repossessed by China in 1997. David Tang honours his great-grandfather with six wives, but he also smokes cigars, reads The Times and speaks 'like some old English colonel'. Gerald Godfrey is English but his lifelong passion is Chinese art and he serves caviar 'with a mother-of-pearl shovel'. Jenny Sun runs a telecommunications business, but still goes to a fortune-teller in search of her next husband. Film editor uz THOYTS

Starring
Charlton Heston
David Carradine
Stacy Keach and Christopher Reeve. On a homeward journey in the inhospitable North Atlantic, the US nuclear submarine Neptune collides with a Norwegian freighter. Its hull ripped open, the Neptune sinks to the crushing depth of 1500ft and comes to rest precariously on the crumbling ledge of an ocean canyon.
Miraculously, 42 crew members have survived, but with only 48 hours of oxygen left, help seems a long way away.
