obviously, in this case, martin bashir...hand knocking the desk, and i want to hear you. so, sorry. martin bashir had used some really deceitful subterfuge and, obviously, the princess was not a criminal, she was a young and rather vulnerable woman. these days, if you want to do anything like that, it would be, ithink, a very closely monitored. i don't think it was in 1995. i think martin bashir didn't have a producer, to the extent that he didn't have any sort of supervision, and it was really steve hewlett, the editor, and obviously steve had a lot of other things to do as well. so, a producer wasn't brought in to the process until right at the last moment. literally days before the interview itself, and that was reallyjust to handle the sort of, technicalities than the actual production of the interview. so... that wouldn't happen today. things have shifted. in fact, can ask you, and again, this is in a historical context, when you are the editor of rhe sun in the 90s, how much did you know ——of the sun in the 90s, how muc

let's return to our top story — the report into how bbc panorama reporter martin bashir obtained his bc fell short of its own high standards for integrity. the bbc has written to prince charles, earl spencer and diana's sons, the duke of sussex and duke of cambridge, to apologise. we heard earlierfrom earl spencer, who's been speaking to bbc panorama, in an interview that will be aired tonight. let's remind ourselves of what he had to say. well, the irony is that i met martin bashir on 31 august, 1995, because exactly two years later, she died. and i do draw a line between the two events. it's quite clear from the introduction that i sat in on on 19 september, 1995, everyone was going to be made untrustworthy. and i think that diana did lose trust in really key people. this is a young girl in her mid—30s who has lived this extraordinarily turbulent and difficult time in the public eye. she didn't know who to trust — and in the end, when she died two years later, she was without any form of real protection. 0ur royal correspondent jonny dymond is with me now. johnny, old spencer they'r

it's just terrible behaviour by martin bashir and one or two others, particularly martin bashir, becauserent omens to the story, of course, what martin bashir did himself, not a criminal offence, can't possibly see that there was any crime committed there, and then obviously the failure to investigate properly and ask the right questions by a number of investigators —— journalists, the former director general, and subsequently the elements of cover—up where what they did know wasn't communicated when other journalists were communicated when otherjournalists were asking questions about what had actually happened. so there were four elements in essence to the story, but the first one, the on the when i would see at any risk of criminal action being taken is obviously what martin bashir dead. quite aware how that might result in a criminal prosecution. it can't quite see myself, but i could easily be wrong, but let's see what happens. be wrong, but let's see what happens-_ be wrong, but let's see what ha ens. ., be wrong, but let's see what ha ens. a, ., .,, happens. martin, you can now dro
