Episodes

View All Seasons
Episode 1 • Dec 31, 1969
Jaipur
This series of travel programs filmed across the Indian sub-continent is compiled by writer-narrator Keith Adams and is his personal view of India. In this program he explores Jaipur, present-day capital of Rajasthan.
Episode 2 • Dec 31, 1969
Hindi Movies
Keith Adams talks to the directors and stars and examines the film making process in Bombay. He finds that in style, the Hindi movies are reminiscent of the Hollywood "weepies" of the 30s, complete with "impossibly good heroes and extremely bad baddies". Adam reports that some actors are signed up for 100 films at one time and spend their days rushing from one film set to another, shooting one scene here and another scene there. Producers explain to Keith Adam how they orchestrate their films for the unsophisticated audience which pays to see them. But Adam finds that with all their faults, the Hindi movies are a lively and diverting art form that seems to cater for the taste and needs of its audience. But, as he warns at the end of this amusing program, a visitor to the Bombay studios sometimes gets more than he bargained for - when he went to a studio during celebrations connected with a Hindu festival - he found himself ceremoniously plunged into a bath of red dye.
Episode 3 • Dec 31, 1969
Simla
Keith Adam recalls the days of the British Raj. He visits Simla, the town in the Himalayas which the British created during the nineteenth century and turned into their summer capital.

The Moghul Emperors
