In this gripping and revealing conversation, Camilla Tominey — one of Britain’s most respected royal and political journalists — breaks down the full story of how the BBC became complicit in Martin Bashir’s infamous and deeply unethical Princess Diana interview. Camilla exposes the deception, cover-ups and editorial failures that allowed Bashir to secure the most controversial interview in royal history — and how the BBC protected him long after the truth began to surface.

This isn’t the sanitised version you’ve heard before. Camilla takes you inside the corridors of power at Broadcasting House, revealing how forged bank statements, intimidation tactics and manipulated fears were used to win Diana’s trust… and how BBC leadership ignored warning after warning.

She explains why Bashir wasn’t a “rogue reporter” acting alone — but part of a wider institutional failure that senior BBC figures knew about, looked away from, or actively helped bury.

In this explosive interview, Camilla and Andrew explore:

How Martin Bashir duped Princess Diana using falsified evidence

Why BBC executives shielded him even when doubts were raised internally

How the corporation tried to hide the truth from the public and the Royal Family

What the Dyson Report exposed — and what it still didn’t reveal

How this scandal permanently shattered trust in the BBC

Why Camilla believes the culture that enabled Bashir still exists today

Camilla also reveals the internal pressures, rivalries and editorial blind spots that shaped the BBC during the Bashir era — and explains how that culture paved the way for one of the darkest moments in British journalism. She delivers a rare behind-the-scenes account of what senior insiders were saying privately, and how the corporation’s instinct to protect its reputation made the scandal far worse.

Whether you’re fascinated by royal history, media ethics or institutional accountability, this conversation exposes the real story behind the BBC’s complicity — a story far more disturbing and consequential than the public was ever told.
