I'm too young to remember how the Princess Diana Panorama broke? Can anyone remember how far in advance were the media and audience informed?

Not particularly explosive then, at least not in a domestic context anyway.

They had stores across the world. I'm 15mins (On iplayer) in and it really is quite explosive.

Perhaps something explosive?
Scott Bryan and various others had put two and two together and assumed it’d be a Russell Brand style expose.

Wasn't there a very similar Netflix doc from last year?

Much ado about nothing.
Can BBC News focus on some serious reporting on big international issues, for a change, instead of tabloid trash they've now become known for?
Meanwhile, nice to see Yalda back. Probably can't wait to get her remaining shifts done so she can go and do some proper world news reporting.

One thing that irritates me about the news channel is that presenters rarely acknowledge what's going on. Take that blooper video - it would be so much smoother if the presenter said "sorry for those technical issues" or "apologies the graphics aren't playing ball today" - instead of coldly ignoring it. It would show that they're thinking about the viewer.
This applies beyond technical issues btw - when they have that 15min filler at 13.45 it would be great for the presenter to say "Hello, I'm ... keeping you updated until the TOTH" or something similar, to give the output some humanity.

Or, as it seems, this is her last shift lol

The cynic in me suspects that the BBC saw how much attention C4’s Dispatches got through not announcing what it was about until shortly beforehand, and thought, “We’ll have a bit of that.”
