Is that what he's "most famous" for? Maybe a generational thing because I know him for the Michael Jackson and Who Wants to be a Millionaire Major Fraud documentaries. I think he came off worse than the subjects. Slimey soulless journo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh for me that interview is iconic and historic even above and beyond Michael Jackson .Not necessarily because it's the most interesting or entertaining but in terms of its importance ,significance and the consequences that flowed from it. It was that interview that prompted the Queen to write to Prince Charles and Princess Diana and basically say enough and order them to divorce. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
