Shamed reporter Martin Bashir has insisted his 1995 Panorama interview with Princess Diana 'was as she wanted it' - but admitted he was 'wrong' to forge bank statements. It had no bearing on [Diana], it had no bearing on the interview.' Graphic designer Matt Wiessler - who made the forgeries - blew the whistle on Bashir and was subsequently banned from the BBC. Bashir said he and his family remained close to Diana after the interview. It had no bearing on [Diana], it had no bearing on the interview.'
