Ismail Merchant (of the Merchant-Ivory team whose films A Room With A View and Maurice have been shown on C4) takes a look at this uniquely British institution. This second programme finds out that 90% of Indian restaurants are not owned by Indians at all, but by Bangladeshis.  1/4 Next Feature Back-Up Sports What's New

Many of the early immigrants to Britain had worked on British ships, and saw no reason why they should not work on the British mainland itself. Predictably, the immigration authorities viewed it differently and many families were separated for a long time.  3/4 Next Feature Back-Up Sports What's New

One was scared out of his wits when he first arrived in Scotland, and probably even more frightened when gangs of Scottish lads piled into his restaurant after being thrown out of the pub. But, now, he's a wealthy man and a friend of Scottish Secretary Malcolm Rifkind. Things have changed - even the flock wallpaper will have to go!
