Second in a special three-part Timewatch documentary on the "red scare" in America. No Place to Hide. Mention McCarthyism and most people think of the Hollywood blacklist. In contrast tonight's film bears witness to the real victims of the anti-communist witch-hunt: the tens of thousands of ordinary people whose lives were destroyed by what amounted to an American
