Gilmore - John Humphrys

Episode 770,   Aug 16, 2013, 11:28 PM

John Humphrys is now so closely associated with Radio 4's 'The Today Programme', it's easy to forget his pedigree. His face was a familiar one on BBC TV news; and he was a foreign correspondent. It is during the spell overseas that this work was done. Hear John reflecting on one of the huge stories of 1977, the execution of double murderer Gary Gilmore in Utah State Prison.
