Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Tenko is a television drama, co-produced by the BBC and the ABC. A total of thirty episodes were produced over three series between 1981 and 1984, followed by a one-off special (which was twice the length of the other episodes), Tenko Reunion, in 1985.The series dealt with the experiences of British, Australian and Dutch women who were captured after the Fall of Singapore in February 1942, after the Japanese invasion, and held in a fictional Japanese internment camp on a Japanese-occupied island between Singapore and Australia. Having been separated from their husbands, herded into makeshift holding camps and largely forgotten by the British War Office, the women have to learn to cope with appalling living conditions, malnutrition, disease, violence and death. | |

Anyone Can Die | |
| Tenko / int_1237828f | comment |
Anyone Can Die: And how! The series doesn't sugar coat the appalling conditions of the camp at all and characters drop like flies throughout all three seasons. | |

When it's revealed that Lillian ratted out Rose, the other prisoners beat the shit out of her and she receives a Traumatic Haircut courtesy of Blanche. | |

Bad Boss | |
| Tenko / int_3cb1d38d | comment |
Bad Boss: Sato is almost as much of an asshole to his underlings as he is to his prisoners. | |

Adult Fear | |
| Tenko / int_46118dc5 | comment |
Adult Fear: The womens' children are sent to the camp with them and have to endure the same awful conditions. This trope eventually drives Lillian half mad with fear for her son to the extent she becomes a collaborator just to get him extra food. | |

All Women Are Prudes | |
| Tenko / int_5c36a51 | comment |
All Women Are Prudes: Averted. The women miss sex and intimacy keenly and Maggie is ecstatic to jump into bed with a male prisoner when she and Dorothy encounter him on the road after the camps are freed. | |
