Episode description

It’s the morning after the scoop before, and the end of a bad week for the BBC.


After The Daily T revealed how Newsnight also doctored Donald Trump’s January 6th speech, and were called out live on air, Tim and Camilla go inside the BBC’s own response to the saga. Hint: it suggests the corporation is as deluded as ever.


Then, it’s a scandal which is arguably more damning than phone hacking. We hear from Andy Webb, the author of an explosive new book about Martin Bashir’s Panorama interview with Princess Diana. He lays out the nefarious tactics Bashir used to get it and how the BBC covered it up for 25 years.
