On Monday His Holiness the Dalai Lama of Tibet visits Britain. For the last 25 years he has lived in exile but even by 1950 the days of the Tibet he ruled were numbered. The writing on the wall was in Chinese characters. The Chinese had long claimed Tibet to be part of China. That mysterious, forbidden Tibet, walled off from the rest of the world behind the Himalayas and seen by only a handful of foreigners was about to be swept away for ever.
This programme compiled from film of both Chinese and Tibetan origin, shows what went on in Tibet after the Chinese take-over of the country: the journey the Dalai Lama made to Peking in 1954; the uprising of the Tibetans against the Chinese; the flight into India of the Dalai Lama and 100,000 Tibetans; the destruction of a culture - of some 3,000 monasteries only parts of 13 are believed to remain today.
