With November 20 marking the 30-year anniversary of Princess Diana's bombshell BBC Panorama interview, the 1995 TV special has once again been making headlines. But Diana's brother, Charles Spencer, has taken issue with how the network covered the anniversary, and has reached out with a formal complaint in conjunction with the author of a new book about the BBC's Panorama coverup.
In 1996, Earl Spencer was approached by journalist Martin Bashir in an attempt to gain access to Diana. The disgraced broadcaster's tactics included showing Spencer false bank statements and other documents in order to lure Diana into speaking with him for Panorama—an interview that had devastating effects on the princess.
