Tom Mangold is known to millions as the face of BBC television's flagship current affairs programme Panorama. His memoir, Splashed, is packed with revelations about some of the stories which made the headlines during his long journey from print to Panorama. His intent was to uncover some of the more raucous and downright absurd events that marked his life in journalism alongside some of the more serious work which made his name. He describes his national service in Germany through his years in the '50s on Fleet Street's most ruthless newspapers, a period where cheque book journalism ruled and shamelessness could be viewed as a major skill for any would-be journalist. Mangold then moves on to his illustrious career at the BBC, where he developed a reputation for his war reporting and his involvement in a series of major investigations. He then moved to the Panorama team where he worked for twenty-six years.Mangold takes us backstage at Panorama and reveals a world not quite as serious as the stories it broadcast each and every week.From world exclusives with fallen women to chaotic interviews with Presidents, Splashed unveils significant revelations about some of the stories which made the headlines during his long journey from print to Panorama.
