From Japan Paul Griffiths reporting, and the British economic scene surveyed by Brian Widlake and David Taylor with Robert McKenzie.
Felix Greene continues his look at China since the cultural revolution.
Table tennis is the national sport in Communist China but many western sports like skating, ice hockey and basketball are now catching on.

Tonight, Felix Greene - British reporter and friend of Red China - looks at the leisure and sporting activities of the 770 million people of China, many of whom prefer to spend their leisure time visiting reminders of China's past - the palaces of the Emperors, the Temple of Heaven and the Great Wall.
