From Broadcast:

Channel 4's head of specialist factual, Hamish Mykura, will take part in a debate commissioned to discuss the issues raised by the controversial documentary Diana: The Witnesses In The Tunnel this evening.

The broadcaster has postponed the first episode in the new series of US sitcom Will & Grace to make room for the show.

The debate, which will air at 11pm after Big Brother, will be presented by C4 News anchor Krishnan Guru-Murthy and is produced by LWT from The London Studios.

The programme will examine C4's decision to include in the film photographs taken at the scene in the aftermath of the crash that killed Princess Diana against the wishes of Clarence House.

It will also debate the case the film makes to exonerate the paparazzi of causing the crash and the ongoing interest in Diana 10 years after her death.


Media commentator Roy Greenslade and the Queen's former press secretary, Dickie Arbiter, will appear alongside Mykura.

Viewers will be able to quiz Mykura and the film's executive producer, Philip Armstrong-Dampier, in a webchat on Channel 4's website at www.channel4.com/dianadebate.



Slightly off topic, but I see it's being made by LWT. What kind of end logo do you think we'll be seeing here, as it's usually the Granada brand used for ITV Production's shows on other channels?

I bet more people will be pissed off about Will and Grace being postponed than the Diana pics - though of course the OFCOM complaint count won't reflect that!

I suggest that we all boycot BB if Chan 4 shows Dead Diana Pics.

I'll boycott bb anyway,Just for it being pure ****


I'll second that! Smile

BB is not an acceptable use of television airtime. Why so many millions of viewers want to sit around watching a bunch of people, er, sitting around, is beyond me. Confused

The kind of vacuous, "look at me"-merchant that a person surely has to be in order to want to be a BB contestant, is precisely the kind of person I'd cross the street to avoid. So watching a group of such people on telly is about as appealing to me as being cut open alive. Rolling Eyes


I can't believe that stupid DJ who gave up her job to watch it Shocked Evil or Very Mad Rolling Eyes Laughing
