Would appear they 'warned' the BBC prior to the programme being aired.

I am not sure if it is the Family themselves, or those appointed to protect their image.
In any event, the BBC has not covered itself with glory - again.
I think the problem I encountered when I used to freelance at the BBC is the same now as it was then - they live in an atmosphere where they believe they are so superior and untouchable, that they act accordingly, and that attitude will only increase until some robust accountability is put in place - commensurate with a broadcast that is publicly funded, but acts like an untouchable enclave.
