On 9 September news cameraman Neil Davis was killed filming the attempted coup in Thailand. This programme, taken from a longer film by David Bradbury and shown as a tribute to Davis's skill and courage, includes the close-range film he shot in Vietnam that made him a legend among newsmen and brought the horrors of war home - literally - to millions of people. Davis talks about working under fire and his belief that 'it's the cameraman's job to bring the truth to the people. No matter what happens.'
Produced and directed by DAVID BRADBURY (R)
