HC Deb 10 November 1948 vol 457 c1537
41. Mr. Emrys Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies why the film of "The Tale of Two Cities" has been banned in Singapore.

Mr. Creech Jones:

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given to a similar question by the hon. Member for Mile End (Mr. Piratin) on 22nd September last.

Mr. Hughes

Could the Minister say if the ban on this film on the ground that it contains revolutionary scenes still holds good, and can he assure us that he will not have "Bonnie Prince Charlie "banned for the same reason?
