- Daily reports of fighting
around the airport...

1:01:05
...14 kilometers outside Phnom Penh,
the capital of Cambodia.

1:01:09
And now, an on-the-spot report
from our correspondent in Thailand...

1:01:13
...Hugh Elder.
1:01:16
Where do they get this crap?
1:01:19
Do you see that guy across the gate?
The little guy?

1:01:23
Could we not all look at once, please?
1:01:26
I have it on reliable sources
that that's Hugh Elder.

1:01:30
You're kidding.
1:01:31
He's disguised, but I got suspicious
about him. You know what I mean?

1:01:35
- How does he get copy out?
- How does he get his copy out?

1:01:38
With specially trained hens.
1:01:41
The BBC has, like, commissioned
them to walk past the Khmer Rouge...

1:01:45
...like their regular fowl.
1:01:47
They've been crossing the border into
Thailand every day and every night.

1:01:52
I told you.
1:01:54
Unconfirmed reports say
the Khmer Rouge are demanding...

1:01:57
...that any officials of
the defeated Lon Nol government...

1:02:01
...especially the so-called
Six Traitors of the Cabinet...

1:02:04
...be handed over to them.
1:02:06
It is not known whether
any of the ex-ministers...

1:02:09
...may have taken refuge
in the embassy...

1:02:11
...where, in the words of a UNICEF
representative in Bangkok...

1:02:14
...the situation is said to be
"increasingly precarious."
