EP.811: Martin Bell, Legendary Ex-BBC War Correspondent
On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to legendary former BBC war correspondent Martin Bell and current UNICEF UK Ambassador on the Yemen War. He discusses the unimaginable suffering he’s seen, the lack of mainstream media coverage of the war which is the world’s worst humanitarian crisis. Finally, we speak to Andrew Lownie, author of ‘The Mountbattens’. He discusses mistakes made by Mountbatten during the partition of India, why Lord Mountbatten rushed the process of partition, the events leading up to his assassination by the IRA and more!
STATEMENT FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON:
The University of Southampton holds extensive collections of contemporary archives for the purposes of study and research, which are available to the public to use under the University's regulations for the use of archive collections.
Like many repositories with archives covering periods of more recent history, it may be necessary on occasions for the University to withhold some material under exemptions set out in the Freedom of Information Act 2000, all of which seek to balance public rights of access to material with competing responsibilities and obligations.
The University gave Mr Lownie access to all parts of the archive it was permitted to, for which he expressed thanks to the University in his book.
