A Film Portrait of Sir Bernard Ingham
'I couldn't have done it without Bernard, he's the greatest', said Mrs Thatcher about her controversial press secretary, Sir Bernard Ingham. Throughout her time at No 10, he was her public relations minder and closest adviser. But he always insisted on remaining behind the scenes and off the record. In this intimate film portrait, for the first time on television, he talks frankly to Michael Cockerell, discussing the Falklands, the Westland affair, and the inside story of Mrs Thatcher's fall from power. See panel below.
