They've decided to dabble in what is traditionally regarded as a wealthy man's game. But the dreams of riches are not easily turned to reality. Now they badly need a winner.

A season of film biographies of artists and musicians.
Getting Away with Murder or The Childhood of Claude Chabrol
An Omnibus film about the greatest exponent of crime films since Hitchcock.
'I like to see people kill other people. Murder in films adds a little spice, makes the audience feel they haven't wasted their evening.'
Claude Chabrol , director of films like Blood Wedding, The Butcher, The Beast Must Die, narrates his own - sometimes tongue-in-cheek - autobiography. Scenes from his childhood are re-enacted by the Chabrol family, with a special appearance by Stephane Audran , Chabrol's wife, and star of many of his films,
' I prefer to see blood spilt in bourgeois homes - like to see them suffer a little.'
Introducing Thomas Chabrol as the young Claude.
Provocative and constantly entertaining ... A new and ambitious approach to TV biography. (THE GUARDIAN) Film editor PAUL HUMFRESS

Nine documentary programmes which take a close look at a controversial police force in action. 3: The Bamboo Curtain
Hong Kong keeps its precarious hold on the rump of China by the grace of Peking. A delicate and unspoken code of behaviour exists between the two countries, which is practical and by which neither loses face.
But much to the embarrassment of HM Government, a lot of Chinese want to get out of China to Hong Kong. Without visas, their best hope of reaching freedom is to swim. But there are also the patrol boats of the Royal Hong Kong Police. Whatever his private feelings, each captain knows what he must do if he comes across freedom swimmers.
