The revelation of many sexual allegations against Mohamed Al-Fayed has shocked the UK. The former owner of Harrods, confidante of Princess Diana and friend of British high society has been accused of a litany of crimes and a decades-long career of harassment and abuse. Given that Princess Diana died whilst under the care of the Fayed family, many have asked if she knew about this aspect of his personality, whether anyone tried to warn her and if her life could have taken a better and safer direction after her divorce from (then) Prince Charles. Phil delves back into his own biography of Diana and looks for clues.


Then the brilliant sports writer Leo McKinstry joins Phil to talk about the world of cricket in the 1930s-50s. Many consider this to be one of the most sedate and civilised of sports, but it was dominated during this time by some truly larger than life characters - none more so that England’s Bill Edrich: war hero, notorious boozer, committed womaniser and life-long scourge of ’the establishment’. By revealing the story of Bill’s extraordinary life Leo takes us into a truly fascinating world.
