The BBC's board of directors has approved the appointment of a retired senior judge to lead an independent investigation into the circumstances around a controversial 1995 TV interview with Princess Diana.

came after Diana's brother, Charles Spencer, made renewed claims this month that BBC journalist Martin Bashir used forged statements and false claims to convince the late royal to agree to the interview.

Charles Spencer alleged that Bashir, 57, made false and defamatory claims about senior royals in order to gain his trust and access to his sister 25 years ago. The claims included that Diana's phone was bugged and that her bodyguard was plotting against her.

Who cares

She was eventually murdered bcoz she was fcuking Dodi and the royal family didn’t want Muslim blood in it.

That's shameful by BBC & equally so for CTV to be regurgitating this under the category of 'entertainment'. Try focusing on important things that matter to Canadians!
