Inquiry criticises the BBC over Princess Diana interview

Serious failings, unethical practices and woeful incompetence are all phrases to describe the BBC and reporter Martin Bashir after an independent inquiry into a world-first interview with the late Princess Diana. Her son Prince William has criticised the interview for contributing to her fear, paranoia, and isolation. A friend of Diana agreed it fed that paranoia but admitted she had wanted to do it. Simone Simmons was with her when she agreed to speak to Mr Bashir and the BBC but the interview recorded was not the one the princess agreed to. “She had wanted some form of an interview to get back at (Prince) Charles but not one that was so contrived to make her totally paranoid,” Ms Simmons said.
