The BBC has vowed “never” to broadcast Diana, Princess of Wales’s 1995 Panorama interview with Martin Bashir again now the “shocking” way it was obtained is known, the corporation’s director-general has said.

An inquiry led by John Dyson found the BBC covered up Bashir’s “deceitful behaviour” to secure his headline-making interview with Diana and “fell short of high standards of integrity and transparency.”
