The only thing I know Tony Palmer for is his recent Malcolm Arnold documentary. And while that was a fascinating and well-produced film, it basically recycled -- uncredited -- bleeding chunks of Kriss Russman's 1991 Omnibus film.

In the absence of other evidence, that track record leads me to assume that Palmer is probably telling porkies in this rather bizarre episode Undecided

Shocking.  I will never look at that paper again.
