BBC chief Tim Davie apologises after investigation identified ‘clear failings’ in tactics used by journalist to secure interview
Martin Bashir commissioned fake bank statements and used “deceitful behaviour” in a “serious breach” of the BBC’s producer guidelines to secure his Panorama interview with Diana, Princess of Wales, an official inquiry has concluded.
The investigation, conducted by former supreme court judge Lord Dyson, found that the “BBC fell short of the high standards of integrity and transparency which are its hallmark” including a cover-upup in an investigation into Bashir’s 1995 Panorama interview at the time.
