Synopsis
Episode 1 of Whicker's Orient where journalist and broadcaster Alan Whicker travels around in Asia. In this episode he visits legendary film producer Run Run Shaw. "Run Run Shaw is a film mogul who makes more than 60 feature films a year. His magic formula is not sin and sex, but blood and guts; sagas whose heroes and heroines perform implausible swordfights and back-somersaults to the tops of buildings. Whicker meets this Chinese wizard at his Hong Kong studios."
