BBC chief: We are taking Diana Panorama interview allegations ‘very seriously’

The BBC is taking the allegations surrounding Panorama’s interview with Diana, Princess of Wales, in 1995 “very seriously”, its boss Tim Davie has said.
The director-general’s comments came following allegations by Diana’s brother Earl Spencer that he was shown “false bank statements” by Martin Bashir. He claimed these statements were used to help the reporter gain access to the princess.
