Description
Andrew Bomford interviews gossip columnist Nigel Dempster on the publication in a book of letters regarding the affair between Princess Margaret and Robin Douglas-Home, at the centre of a blackmail scandal in the 1960s. He says the letters had been in public before and blackmailing the Royal family would seem like the most logical step for Robin Douglas-Home as he had money problems. For Billboard programme.
