In the aftermath of the Vietnam war many thousands of refugees took to the high seas to seek new lives.
As the scale of the refugee problem came to light, the newly-elected Conservative
Government agreed to settle 16,000 Vietnamese in Britain.
Their policy was to get voluntary organisations to settle them, teach them basic English, to house them and to get them jobs. But five years later there's evidence that these new settlers are having great difficulty in getting used to an alien way of life. High unemployment, depression, alienation and crime among the refugees is causing concern. John Forsyth asks whether the humanitarian settlement policy is turning sour.

The Christians Begin Again in China
Ten years ago the Chinese Church was in deepest night. Nearly all places of worship were closed and pastors were persecuted.
During the last four years dawn has broken. Over 1500 churches - Catholic and Protestant - have now reopened. The number of believers is higher than before the Revolution. But how widely is the government's new policy of freedom of worship being implemented? Why is the Vatican still regarded with suspicion? And how do Christians cope with living in a Communist-led state? Rosemary Hartill explores whether the shadows of the past have Bed.
