BBC ‘made to look quite foolish’ as it settles claim with Princess Diana’s ex-chauffer

Royal commentator Josh Rom discusses the BBC being required to pay undisclosed damages to Princess Diana’s former chauffer, Stephen Davies, following a High Court case. Mr Davies accused the BBC of making fabricated allegations that he leaked information before Princess Diana’s famous interview with Martin Bashir. “He said that these fabricated and unfounded allegations and accusations are a real ‘blot' on his character, so to speak," Mr Rom said. “I think this is once again the BBC being made to look quite foolish here for what went on at the time."
