Timewatch

The BBC in Vietnam (1995x3)

Udgivelsesdato: Mar 30, 1995

The second of two Timewatch programmes on the Vietnam War. The reports of young journalists like Martin Bell, David Jessel, Brian Barron and Julian Pettifer brought the front line of the war into the front room. This review of the BBC's coverage includes dispatches that were often moving, like those on the fate of Vietnamese children orphaned by the war, or broadcast under conditions of great personal risk, as when Julian Pettifer came under fire in Saigon in 1968.
