Whicker's Orient - Alan Whicker (1972) - Tolo Harbour, Tai Po

During the initial segment of the film, despite most of it going on in Aberdeen, there is a brief moment where the editors have inserted some footage from another location. This is as Whicker goes on to interview a boatman but the guy is a bit shy about revealing his face and keeps it covered with his hat. If you look in the background you can see that this takes place off the coast in Tai Po because Pat Sin Leng can be seen in one image (top) and in the second image you can see the north slope of Ma On Shan (bottom). It was most likely filmed near to the Tai Po Kau pier given the angle on the hills in the middle image.
