THE BEEFING: Princess Diana vs the BBC
Description
In 1995 a history making interview inside Kensington Palace between the late Princess Diana and ex-BBC reporter Martin Bashir changed the trajectory of the monarchy forever.
The Panorama TV interview watched by an estimated 200 million worldwide, became one of the most dissected moments in modern royal history but resulted in an inquiry into how the BBC 'covered up’ the controversial methods Bashir used to secure it.
In this episode of The Beefing, Helen Smith unpacks fresh claims made in a new book, Dianarama, and explores why nearly three decades on many still blame Bashir for Diana’s death.
