would make contact in the evening and get the file back next morning. | :01:09. | :01:15. | |
I put the files back in their place. That idea, regularly, year in, year | :01:16. | :01:17. | |

a century of their musical stop it is one of the most important rock | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
bands so far in music history. You can't really deny that. | :01:34. | :01:52. | |
China may be the world's second-biggest economy, | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
The country's citizens are getting nervous and are sending their money | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
Analysis of the Panama papers, the leaked document showing how | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
the world's elite have tried to hide their money, | :02:05. | :02:06. | |
revealed some of the biggest culprits are in China. | :02:07. | :02:08. | |
The Chinese authorities limit the amount of money | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
people can take abroad, but as Celia Hatton has been finding | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
out, some go to extreme measures to get their millions out | :02:14. | :02:15. | |
They are desperate to keep their money safe. | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
Many are anxious to smuggle their wealth out of China, away | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
I met a man who works as a money mule, carrying cash over the border | :02:27. | :02:35. | |
TRANSLATION: I strap the money to my body or I carry a small bag. | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
Customs officers always target people with lots of luggage, | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
or those who look nervous, so I just try to act normal. | :02:47. | :02:53. | |
It is not just people with ties to the leadership who are stashing | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
Growing numbers of people are moving their money out of China | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
on a scale never seen before, and much of that money passes | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
And then the money has to go somewhere. | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
Last year, Chinese buyers snapped up more than ?35 billion in overseas | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
Every Chinese citizen can transfer ?35,000 a year outside the country. | :03:13. | :03:23. | |
Anything more than that often has to be moved illegally, | :03:24. | :03:25. | |
but for those who fear their nest eggs will be wiped out by China's | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
slowing economy, and for those who want to hide their wealth | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
from the authorities, money smuggling is a necessary risk. | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
The outflow of capital is something that the Chinese government | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
They are aware of the scale of it, but the fact that they are giving it | :03:41. | :03:51. | |
a fair bit of priority and yet the scale of the problem remains | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
so large means that they are not entirely on top of it. | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
Across Hong Kong, it is common to see visitors from mainland China | :04:01. | :04:07. | |
Think of it as a symbol for what is happening around the globe. | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
China's richest people, including the country's top leaders, | :04:13. | :04:14. | |
are choosing to take their money out of the country to spend elsewhere. | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
They are protecting themselves, but making China more vulnerable. | :04:19. | :04:20. | |
Celia Hatton, BBC News, Hong Kong. | :04:21. | :04:30. | |
He was one of the most notorious British spies of the Cold War era. | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
Kim Philby rose up the ranks of the intelligence service MI6 | :04:35. | :04:36. | |
while all the while passing secrets to the Soviet Union and the KGB. | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
But he has never been seen talking about his 30 years of | :04:40. | :04:42. | |
The BBC has unearthed fascinating video of Philby addressing | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
officers of the East German intelligence service, | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
Gordon Corera has been examining this | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
Britain's most famous spy, its greatest traitor. | :04:54. | :05:06. | |
I must also warn you that I am no public speaker. | :05:07. | :05:14. | |
Almost all my life I've spent trying to avoid publicity of any kind. | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
The BBC unearthed this hour-long video, the images grainy, | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
It is 1981 and Philby is addressing the Stasi, | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
Never intended for the public, this recording has lain hidden | :05:28. | :05:33. | |
Every evening I left the office with a big briefcase full of reports | :05:34. | :05:43. | |
which I had written myself, full of files taken out | :05:44. | :05:45. | |
of the actual documents, the actual archives. | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
I used to hand them to my Soviet contact in the evening, the next | :05:49. | :05:51. | |
morning I would get the file back, the contents having been | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
photographed, and take them back early in the morning and put | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
That I did regularly, year in, year out. | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
Mr Harold Philby, on the right, holds a press conference to deny | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
charges that he was involved in the disappearance | :06:06. | :06:06. | |
Until now, this was the only known video of Philby speaking. | :06:07. | :06:16. | |
It is 1955, and he was denying reports he was a Communist. | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
The last time I spoke to a Communist, knowing him to be | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
Eight years later, he fled to Moscow. | :06:23. | :06:31. | |
Philby is buried in a cemetery on the outskirts of the Russian | :06:32. | :06:33. | |
capital, along with other heroes of his adopted homeland. | :06:34. | :06:40. | |
Philby died in 1988, 25 years after he came to the Soviet | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
It was a country he regarded as home. | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
He was the spy who came into the cold. | :06:49. | :07:08. | |
They interrogated me to try to break my note. My advice to agents was to | :07:09. | :07:16. | |
deny everything. The secret account of his betrayal | :07:17. | :07:18. | |
emerged after his death. Finally, more than half a century | :07:19. | :07:33. | |
of music and revelry by the Rolling Stones is being | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
celebrated at a new exhibition There are instruments, costumes, | :07:37. | :07:38. | |
artwork and many other items Beginning as a blues | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
band in the early 1960s, charting the rise to the rock giants | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
they are today. Will Gompertz has been chatting | :07:46. | :07:47. | |
to them all about the secret "First, you shock them," | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
Mick Jagger once said, "and then they stick | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
you in a museum," or All 54 years of the Stones' rock | :07:54. | :07:55. | |
and roll history is laid out in this sprawling retrospective, | :07:56. | :08:04. | |
the costumes they wore, the guitars they played, | :08:05. | :08:05. | |
and the global brand they created. You must feel this sort of welling | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
up of nostalgia. What do you think the legacy | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
of the Stones is? It is one of the most | :08:15. | :08:25. | |
important rock bands, Because of its longevity, the rock | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
band has a cultural history place, because as you walk through this | :08:31. | :08:44. | |
exhibition, you can see it goes through all these different eras, | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
all these different things have It becomes more than | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
just a rock band. There is a mock-up of life | :08:51. | :08:55. | |
backstage at a Stones gig, and a re-creation of the fetid flat | :08:56. | :08:57. | |
they shared as teenagers Keith, what do you think | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
of the show? I went past the Edith Grove flat | :09:01. | :09:08. | |
and I wanted to crash out. What would happen if it was today | :09:09. | :09:24. | |
and you were in Edith Grove today, and you were a bunch | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
of 19-year-old lads? Today there is so much variety that | :09:29. | :09:30. | |
I do not think the band could happen The career-spanning exhibition | :09:31. | :09:38. | |
presents a really vivid reminder of just how long the | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
Stones have been going. Have you ever tired of it, | :09:43. | :09:44. | |
have you ever thought...? I used to quit at the end of every | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
tour, it would drive you up Playing Brown Sugar | :09:50. | :10:02. | |
for the 50th time. The band has travelled the globe | :10:03. | :10:09. | |
over the past five decades and has just returned from an historic | :10:10. | :10:12. | |
and successful trip to Cuba. Ronnie, you played all over | :10:13. | :10:14. | |

Nairobi or somewhere, What about a trip to | :10:24. | :10:31. | |
