Article Abstract:

The BBC has been criticized for paying nearly 280,000 pounds sterling to the makers of the documentary 'Reggie Kray - The Final Word.' This documentary contains an interview given by gangster Reggie Kray shortly before his death, and seems to go against the BBC's tradition of objectivity.

How Britain eavesdropped on Dublin

Article Abstract:

The Electronic Test Facility (ETF) operated by the Ministry of Defence in Capenhurst, England, intercepted the international communications of the Irish Republic transmitted from Dublin, Ireland, to Anglesey, Wales, between 1990 and 1998. The signals were carried from Anglesey through the network of microwave radio relay towers operated by British Telecommunications. The ETF was constructed on British Nuclear Fuels Ltd land, but this company was not aware of its purpose.
