Pick of the Day
Days That Shook the BBC with David Dimbleby, 9.00pm, BBC Two
Interesting new series this, given that the current British government constantly undermines the BBC and seeks to privatise Channel 4.
It's a personal take on controversies that affected the BBC during the legendary presenter David Dimbleby's time there, including its role in key moments of political and cultural change.
In the first episode, he examines the way that the BBC has dealt with power, and how it has sought to preserve and assert its independence over the last half century.
From Margaret Thatcher (above) and Harold Wilson, to the British monarchy, Dimbleby considers moments in which the BBC has come into conflict with key parts of the establishment.
Following conversations with current and former BBC staff members, including broadcaster Emily Maitlis, he argues that ensuring the BBC's separation from those in power lies at the very heart of the Corporation's remit.
