渡江探险
修筑康藏公路部队某部红旗排长李玉明,从医院回到了团部,政委和同志们都热情地欢迎他。但他却迫不及待地要求回排里去。原来红旗排正在担任几万修路大军的开路先锋,可是被一条水急、暗礁多的江水挡住了去路。他们强渡了几次,都没有成功,而且有人负伤。政委同意李玉明立即回去,并要求红旗排在“七一”以前渡过江去,寻找一条通向桥头工地——狮子山高峰——的通路。李玉明回排的第二天,就参加了连长陈文键组织的又一次渡江。这次又出了问题,拖住橡皮船的电线在暗礁上拌断,船顺流而下。副排长谭大山为了救船负伤牺牲了。当晚洪水又上涨,没有经验的新战士玉才,在警卫时没有注意系船的绳子已在石头上磨断,船被洪水卷走了。他在交班时,因胆小怕事,竟伪称船仍在崖下。接班的老战士王宝臣(外号迷糊)粗心地没有检查,结果担了丢船的过失。没有船就没法过江了,同志们情绪沮丧,连长陈文键更为严重,想等洪水退回再渡江。但李玉明不同意,他要求更好地组织过江,再做试验。他想到后面有几万筑路大军在等待,前面又有无数的康藏人民日夜盼望着修通公路,因此决不能拖延渡江日期。正好,团政委及时地来到了江边,解决了这两种思想的矛盾和物资上的困难。他召开了全排军人大会,发动了群众的智慧,肯定了李玉明和战士们提出的好办法——用木筏渡江。新的渡江开始了,这次虽然也出了问题(木筏又撞在礁石一卜了),但李玉明和战士们都游上了西岸。在藏族青年巴桑的帮助下,电线也拉了过来,开始在江上架起溜索。李玉明经过巴桑父亲扎西老人的指引,立即带了玉才和王宝臣向狮子山进发。途中,他们又遇到山上滚石的袭击,但他们仍然无畏地前进。新战士玉才在实际锻炼中,也迅速地成长了,他终于向玉宝臣坦白了丢船是自己的过失。当东岸的战士们正在焦急地盼望时,政委发现了狮子山上的人影。这就是李玉明,他已成功地登上了高峰。在修成的钢桥桥头,无数的藏族青年男女在歌舞。他们歌唱金桥给他们带来了幸福,歌颂英雄的解放军像神鹰一样地渡过了天险。
法老的女儿
英国青年Wilson和随从在埃及旅游,突遇风暴,便与阿拉伯商人一同躲入金字塔避风。守护金字塔的人嘱咐他们保持安静,因为这座金字塔里安息着法老的女儿。Wilson在阿拉伯商人的诱惑下吸了大烟,昏沉地进入幻境。这时,法老的女儿Aspicia复活了,从天而降,她伸出手唤醒了沉睡的Wilson后就消失了。Wilson感觉自己变成了埃及人Taor,并追随美人而去。月光下,他在森林里找到了Aspicia,二人一见钟情。接着一段又一段的变奏,一直跳到天亮。在狩猎的路上,一头雄狮企图袭击Aspicia,被Taor 一箭射中,不过,Aspicia还是被吓昏了,倒在Taor的怀中。这时,法老驾到,看见女儿躺在陌生人身边,下令把他抓起来。Aspicia醒来后告诉父亲是 Taor救了自己。法老立即放了Taor并邀请他到自己的宫殿。                                                                                                                                            在法老的宫殿里,努比亚国王前来求婚,法老大喜,当即应允。Aspicia不从,便和Taor商定二人私奔。Aspicia用首饰买通了把门人,又让女仆化妆成自己留在宫中,二人趁夜深人静时从小门逃走,努比亚国王随后率兵追去。                                                                                                                                            逃婚路上,他们来到尼罗河边的村庄,受到渔民的热列欢迎,Taor让已经疲劳的 Aspicia先休息,他自己和渔民们去捕鱼。不料,他们刚离开,努比亚国王就到了,持刀威胁Aspicia跟自己回去完婚。Aspicia铁定了心,死也不嫁给他。她从窗户跳进了尼罗河。当Taor和仆人赶来营救时,被努比亚国王捉住,押回了法老的宫殿。法老要他说出女儿去向,而 Taor根本不知她已经跳河了。                                                                                                                                            再说Aspicia, 坠入河底,来到了河神的王国,受到了热情招待。但她心里只有 Taor。一番歌舞后,河神满足她的愿望,把她送回岸上。                                                                                                                                            在法老的宫殿,正当法老要用眼镜蛇处死 Taor和其他参与“阴谋”的人,渔民们护送 Aspicia回来了。她告诉父亲出逃完全是她自己的主意,与其他人无关。是努比亚国王用刀逼她跳了河,而河神救了自己。法老大怒,和努比亚国王决裂。 Aspicia又为Taor求情,法老不允。于是Aspicia以死威胁,冲上去要和毒蛇一拼。法老舍不得失去女儿,终于同意二人喜结良缘。                                                                                                                                            梦醒时分,仍然沉浸在欢乐中的Wilson环顾四周,Aspicia的身影渐渐消失在暮霭中,这原来只是一个美妙的梦。
法律之外
Daniel Mays (Line Of Duty, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Public Enemies) stars in BBC Two's powerful factual drama as Peter Wildeblood, a thoughtful and private gay journalist whose lover Eddie McNally (played by newcomer to television, Richard Gadd), under pressure from the authorities, turned Queen's evidence against him in one of the most explosive court cases of the 1950s - the infamous Montagu Trial.   More than ten years before the decriminalisation of homosexual acts in 1967, Peter Wildeblood, and his friends Lord Montagu (Mark Edel-Hunt) and Michael Pitt-Rivers, were found guilty of homosexual offences and jailed.   With his career in tatters and his private life painfully exposed, Wildeblood began his sentence a broken man, but he emerged from Wormwood Scrubs a year later determined to do all he could to change the way these draconian laws against homosexuality impacted on the lives of men like him.   Daniel says: 「I'm incredibly proud to be part of a drama that tells such an important real-life story. Peter Wildeblood is a fascinating, complex, yet flawed character from a time when being a gay man in Britain was incredibly difficult - I can't wait to bring his tale to life for the BBC Two audience.」   Patrick Holland, Channel Editor, BBC Two, said: 「50 years ago, it was a crime to be a gay man in the UK. Against The Law is a stunning piece that melds drama and documentary testimony to tell the story of one man, and his wider generation, as they struggled to make society accept their sexuality as non-criminal. It is brilliant to have a film that brings the authorship of Brian Fillis, the vision of director Fergus O'Brien, and the outstanding talent of Daniel Mays and cast to this important subject」   The drama also features Mark Gatiss (Taboo, Sherlock) as Wildeblood's prison psychiatrist, Doctor Landers and Charlie Creed-Miles (Ripper Street, Peaky Blinders) as Superintendent Jones.   Woven through this powerful drama is real-life testimony from a chorus of men who lived through those dark days, when homosexuals were routinely imprisoned or forced to undergo chemical aversion therapy in an attempt to cure them of their "condition". There is also testimony from a retired police officer whose job it was to enforce these laws, and a former psychiatric nurse who administered the so-called cures. All of these accounts serve to amplify the themes of the drama and help to immerse us in the reality of a dark chapter in our recent past, a past still within the reach of living memory.
