Andy Webb - The BBC is LYING to You About Martin Bashir (And Why He's in HIDING)

Investigative journalist Andy Webb joins Andrew Gold to reveal the truth the BBC desperately wants to keep quiet — that the corporation is still lying to the public about Martin Bashir, and the real reasons the disgraced reporter has effectively gone into hiding. Webb has spent years pulling apart the BBC’s internal documents, witness accounts and suppressed evidence, and in this explosive conversation he exposes the parts of the story the BBC continues to deny.

In this gripping clip, Andy Webb explains how Martin Bashir went from being one of the BBC’s star journalists to disappearing from public life — and why the BBC still isn’t telling the full story. Webb exposes how Bashir’s lies, forged documents and psychological manipulation weren’t one-off mistakes but part of a long-running pattern. More importantly, he reveals how senior figures at the BBC covered for him, protected him and downplayed his wrongdoing long after they knew the truth.

Webb breaks down how the BBC crafted a narrative designed to make Bashir look like a lone, misguided journalist — when in reality, the corporation ignored red flags, silenced whistleblowers and buried internal reports for decades. According to Webb, the BBC continues to distort the facts even today in an attempt to protect its reputation, minimise its responsibility and avoid admitting how deeply Bashir’s deception penetrated the organisation.

So why is Martin Bashir in hiding? Webb explains how Bashir’s public silence is no coincidence — and how ongoing questions about his methods, his past and his role in manipulating Princess Diana make it almost impossible for him to re-emerge. Webb also breaks down how Bashir’s actions pushed Diana into a heightened state of paranoia, leaving her terrified of surveillance, betrayal and threats that were entirely fabricated. The BBC’s decision to shield Bashir, rather than expose him, allowed those lies to go unchallenged.

What did the BBC know — and when? Why is the corporation still avoiding accountability? And what would happen if Bashir ever chose to speak publicly again? Webb answers these questions with forensic detail, revealing the uncomfortable truth behind the BBC’s ongoing dishonesty.

If you want to understand the full scale of the Bashir scandal — and why both he and the BBC are still running from the truth — this conversation exposes everything.
