In this new episode of Heretics, Andrew Gold speaks with Camilla Tominey about the growing public frustration with the BBC, the long-running accusations of BBC bias, and why so many viewers now feel the broadcaster has lost its sense of impartiality. From the Martin Bashir scandal and Princess Diana to the Trump documentary editing controversy, the conversation takes a detailed look at how the BBC handles political reporting, culture war issues and internal accountability.

She explains how teams sometimes behave as if “if you don’t agree with me, you’re not just wrong but bad and evil”. Andrew and Camilla revisit the leaked internal memos that changed the conversation around BBC neutrality, and why critics argue that the organisation often reacts to scrutiny with “silence, shame and cancellation instead of reflection”. Some who oppose Camilla’s reporting have claimed, and these are not her words, that “this is a Telegraph right wing plot to destabilise the BBC”. The episode breaks down where these accusations come from and why they persist. They take a close look at the BBC Trump documentary controversy and ask whether the public reaction would have been the same if the editing had been applied to Joe Biden. Camilla suggests that instead of “crying mutiny and coup”, the broadcaster should examine the substance of what is being alleged. The conversation also covers gender politics and public activism. Camilla notes how she does not see right wing commentators wearing masks and shouting “out, out, out, scum, scum, scum” in the streets, while Andrew adds his own satirical “Raus!” as they explore how toxic the culture wars have become. This wide-ranging interview touches on BBC leadership under Tim Davie, public debate around immigration, and why many viewers privately agree with opinions they feel unable to express publicly. The discussion ends with questions about Nigel Farage, whether Tommy Robinson could ever run for office, and a humorous look at Andrew’s own baptism. If you are interested in media bias, political journalism, free speech, British culture wars and the future of the BBC, this is a deep dive into one of the most important debates in modern broadcasting. #CamillaTominey #BBCBias #HereticsPodcast Join the 30k heretics on my mailing list: https://andrewgoldheretics.com Check out my new documentary channel: https://youtube.com/@andrewgoldinvestigates Andrew on X: https://twitter.com/andrewgold_ok Insta: https://www.instagram.com/andrewgold_ok Heretics YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@andrewgoldheretics Learn more about your ad choices.
