When business is good, the Chinese gamble; when business is bad, the Chinese gamble. This unwritten law of economics has made
Stanley Ho so much money that he doesn't even know how much he's worth. Apart from three Rolls-Royces at his Hong Kong house he has property and businesses in Portugal, Spain, Australia, the Philippines and Macau. The flourishing source of all this wealth, as he tells reporter David Lomax, is a string of casinos. How did he set them up? How does he keep coining it in? Why, among his gifts to charities, did he give so much money to the RAF Museum at Hendon? Why does he need the biggest fleet of jet-powered ferries in the world?

Street Kids
Every year thousands of youngsters end up on the streets of London, looking for a job and a cheap place to live. Some make it, but for far too many of them the dream turns into a nightmare. They end up on the margins of society, without a roof over their heads - scavenging for a living. Few Londoners have any idea about how these thousands of youngsters survive. In the week that an official report shows homelessness at record levels and the homeless getting ever younger, Peter Marshall investigates.
