BBC's 'ugly' portrayal of Hirohito angers Japan

The BBC has come under attack in Japan for "a malicious, prejudiced and ugly" portrayal of Emperor Hirohito in a forthcoming edition of Timewatch.

The docu-drama will show the emperor as having "a physical handicap and a warped personality" says the magazine Shukan Shincho, which has obtained an early version of the script. It says that the programme should not be broadcast.

The magazine expresses astonishment at the script, citing Japanese historians who dispute the implication that Hirohito was an active war leader who escaped justice, rather than a powerless figurehead.

He was considered a living god in Japan until the Second World War defeat. Hirohito remains beyond criticism in Japan amid a widespread refusal to accept that he bears at least some moral responsibility for wartime suffering.

The BBC approached Yasuhiro Nakasone, the prime minister from 1982 to 1987 at the end of Hirohito's reign, but his secretary said he rejected the BBC without consulting Mr Nakasone after seeing the script. "The contents were so clearly intended to make a villain of the emperor," the secretary explained.

A BBC spokesman said: "The programme is in the very early stages of filming. Consequently, scripts will go through a number of drafts.

"It is not possible to make a full or informed judgment as it will not be completed for several months. It is not the intention of the BBC to offend Japanese people."

Historians may also question the idea of a physically handicapped Hirohito, though the precise handicap is not specified.
