 John Simpson Returns to China
Part 1
John Simpson, the BBC World Affairs Editor, speaks with student activists who were imprisoned after the Tiananmen Square massacre. He also reflects on why he got it so wrong when he, along with much of the Western media, predicted regime change two decades ago.
Part 2
John Simpson meets the woman often called China's version of Oprah Winfrey on the set of the reality TV show 'Win in China'. He also gets unprecedented acces to social activist movements in China... and accompanies a group in Beijing tasked with cracking down on public spitting, as China tries to spruce up its image prior to the Olympics.
