James Cameron one of Fleet Street's leading foreign correspondents
He looks back to 1956 when he was on holiday in Greece: a holiday that was shot down in flames, first by the uprising in Hungary, and then, within days, by the Anglo-French invasion of Egypt. He recalls, from the BBC Sound Archives, bitter arguments expressed at the time, and talks now, with the benefit of hindsight, to fellow correspondents and people he was with at the time.
