:00:51. > :00:53.I must also warn you I'm no public speaker.
:00:54. > :00:58.Almost all my life I've spent trying to avoid publicity of any kind.
:00:59. > :01:00.Never before seen footage of British double agent Kim Philby -
:01:01. > :01:08.That's one. And another.
:01:09. > :01:16.And the sixes that sank England - they lose to the West Indies
:01:17. > :01:39.The leak of 11 million confidential documents
:01:40. > :01:44.from a Panamanian law firm, has revealed the extent
:01:45. > :01:46.to which the world's rich and powerful use tax havens
:01:47. > :01:57.The documents, some seen by the BBC, show how clients were helped
:01:58. > :01:59.to launder money, dodge sanctions, and evade tax.
:02:00. > :02:01.One of those mentioned is a close friend of
:02:02. > :02:03.the Russian President Vladimir Putin, alleged to be involved
:02:04. > :02:06.The law firm at the centre of the revelations,
:02:07. > :02:09.Mossack Fonseca, says it's operated beyond reproach for 40 years,
:02:10. > :02:11.and has never been accused or charged with wrong-doing.
:02:12. > :02:17.Here's our Special Correspondent Richard Bilton.
:02:18. > :02:20.Panama's carnival attracts visitors from around the world.
:02:21. > :02:25.But, away from the lights, this place is a thriving tax haven.
:02:26. > :02:30.Investors come to Panama for secrecy.
:02:31. > :02:33.You can go to Panama and you can get a foundation,
:02:34. > :02:38.or a trust or a company, and you can use those complicated,
:02:39. > :02:40.slightly strange structures to hide and disguise your ownership
:02:41. > :02:51.An enormous leak of files from this company, Mossack Fonseca,
:02:52. > :02:59.From outside, Mossack Fonseca looks like a perfectly respectable
:03:00. > :03:02.company, but this is a business which has helped people from around
:03:03. > :03:10.The documents were leaked to the German newspaper
:03:11. > :03:12.Suddeutsche Zeitung and shared with the International Consortium
:03:13. > :03:18.Panorama has been analysing the documents.
:03:19. > :03:21.We found links to 72 current or former heads of state.
:03:22. > :03:30.Like the Icelandic Prime Minister, Sigmundur Gunnlaugsson,
:03:31. > :03:35.who had a secret stake in an offshore company.
:03:36. > :03:39.The company held his wife's interests in Iceland's banks,
:03:40. > :03:45.Nobody knew that when her husband was dealing with the Icelandic banks
:03:46. > :03:48.after their collapse - including the British
:03:49. > :03:53.demands for compensation, which he turned down.
:03:54. > :04:06.He walked out when questioned by an Icelandic reporter.
:04:07. > :04:10.Mr Gunnlaugsson is today facing calls for his resignation.
:04:11. > :04:13.He says he has not broken any rules and his wife did not benefit
:04:14. > :04:20.Mossack Fonseca say the services they provide are commonly used
:04:21. > :04:22.worldwide and they are responsible members of the global financial
:04:23. > :04:32.But some of the deals in the files are extraordinary.
:04:33. > :04:35.We believe we have found a billion-dollar laundering
:04:36. > :04:46.This man, cellist Sergei Roldugin - close friend of President Putin -
:04:47. > :04:50.was officially the owner of two secretive companies which benefited
:04:51. > :04:59.For example, an offshore company borrows $6 million.
:05:00. > :05:06.Three months later, the loan is written off for just $1.
:05:07. > :05:12.Why would anyone want to give all this cash to a cellist?
:05:13. > :05:15.There is nothing I've seen which would make me do anything
:05:16. > :05:17.other than say stop, we need to investigate very closely
:05:18. > :05:22.To you, does it look like money-laundering?
:05:23. > :05:27.Yes, it does look like money-laundering to me, for sure.
:05:28. > :05:30.Mr Roldugin hasn't answered our questions.
:05:31. > :05:35.Mossack Fonseca say they have a strong compliance record.
:05:36. > :05:39.Through the leak, the world can now see more clearly how the wealthy can

:05:58. > :06:00.The government says it's ready to offer incentives to secure
:06:01. > :06:03.a buyer, for the Port Talbot steelworks to safeguard
:06:04. > :06:09.The Business Secretary Sajid Javid, says the plant's costs and pensions,
:06:10. > :06:14.It's emerged today that one potential buyer has been in contact
:06:15. > :06:18.Here's our Political Correspondent Carole Walker.
:06:19. > :06:22.What is the Government prepared to do to save
:06:23. > :06:27.The formal bidding process for the Port Talbot plant will open
:06:28. > :06:29.this week, and the Business Secretary said the Government
:06:30. > :06:33.is prepared to put in money to help clinch a deal.
:06:34. > :06:36.Frankly, I don't want to live in a country where we have to import
:06:37. > :06:41.That is why we have been clear we will do everything we can to keep
:06:42. > :06:43.steel-making at Port Talbot and to help those workers.
:06:44. > :06:46.I want to find a buyer for the whole of the business.
:06:47. > :06:50.Of course, there will be help that needs to be provided.
:06:51. > :06:53.Because we have been working on this for weeks, I have thought carefully
:06:54. > :06:56.about the kind of help we can provide.
:06:57. > :06:59.I understand the Government has had preliminary talks with a potential
:07:00. > :07:03.buyer for Tata's UK business, but a sale might require Government
:07:04. > :07:07.investment to modernise Port Talbot, to make it more profitable.
:07:08. > :07:10.The Business Secretary said other key issues are the plant,
:07:11. > :07:13.what type of steel is made, pensions - though funds have been
:07:14. > :07:18.set aside for future liabilities - and power.
:07:19. > :07:21.The steel industry wants more relief from energy taxes.
:07:22. > :07:24.Ministers have said they do not believe nationalisation is a viable
:07:25. > :07:30.But the opposition says it should remain an option.
:07:31. > :07:34.If we haven't got that leeway in the timescale, as a fall back,
:07:35. > :07:37.yes, nationalise in the short-term to stabilise the situation,
:07:38. > :07:41.prepare the sector then for putting it back out to another buyer.
:07:42. > :07:44.That will give us the stability we need in the sector.
:07:45. > :07:47.If the Government allows our steel sector to close now,
:07:48. > :07:50.Port Talbot to close, it could cost us between 1
:07:51. > :07:53.and 1.5 billion to keep people on the dole and have economies
:07:54. > :08:00.Ministers say they will encourage councils and all other public bodies
:08:01. > :08:04.to buy British steel for future building projects,
:08:05. > :08:07.but many in the steel industry say the Government has to do more.
:08:08. > :08:09.The size of the crisis that we find ourselves in,
:08:10. > :08:12.or the severity of it, means that we need direct financial
:08:13. > :08:18.Now, that might be only in the short-term, but without it,
:08:19. > :08:22.then we have a very uncertain future.
:08:23. > :08:25.The formal bidding process for Port Talbot will open this week,
:08:26. > :08:29.but time is tight if a buyer is to be found to save the business.
:08:30. > :08:32.I understand the steel tycoon Sanjeev Gupta has made initial
:08:33. > :08:37.No substantial discussions yet though.
:08:38. > :08:41.This will be a complex process, but the pressure is on,
:08:42. > :08:46.because Tata has said it wants to find a buyer within weeks,
:08:47. > :08:49.and the jobs of thousands of British steel workers are hanging
:08:50. > :08:54.Carole Walker, BBC News, Westminster.
:08:55. > :08:56.The government has ordered an independent inquiry
:08:57. > :08:59.into the UK's Anti-Doping Aagency, after it was accused of failing
:09:00. > :09:02.to act over claims a doctor prescribed performance enhancing
:09:03. > :09:06.drugs to sports stars, including Premier League footballers.
:09:07. > :09:10.Three clubs today described the claims as "false".
:09:11. > :09:12.The doctor concerned, Mark Bonar, has denied any wrongdoing.
:09:13. > :09:22.The truth of the matter is, drugs are in sport.
:09:23. > :09:25.Dr Mark Bonar, caught claiming to have helped scores of sports
:09:26. > :09:32.Secretly filmed by the Sunday Times last year, the London-based medic
:09:33. > :09:34.prescribes banned performance-enhancing drugs
:09:35. > :09:45.If somebody came into me and said why are you giving BLEEP
:09:46. > :09:51.testosterone, I would say, look, his testosterone level is 15.
:09:52. > :09:53.The normal range is 4-30 and he has symptoms of testosterone
:09:54. > :09:59.His levels were sub-optimal, and I've just topped him up.
:10:00. > :10:02.The reason is to increase his performance.
:10:03. > :10:08.Bonar says he's worked with 150 elite sports people,
:10:09. > :10:16.including boxers, tennis players, an England cricketer, cyclists
:10:17. > :10:21.If you're a footballer in your 30s, how are you going to keep up
:10:22. > :10:25.There is no suggestion that any of the three Premier League clubs
:10:26. > :10:27.implicated were aware of any of any alleged wrongdoing.
:10:28. > :10:30.They say the claims are false, and without foundation.
:10:31. > :10:33.Leicester City is one of those clubs, and today, fans
:10:34. > :10:37.at the match against Southampton gave their reaction.
:10:38. > :10:43.You wouldn't want to be paying to see a sport which
:10:44. > :10:48.As things stand, they said they have not found anything,
:10:49. > :10:49.there's nothing to suggest otherwise.
:10:50. > :10:52.So I think we've just got to continue and enjoy what we see
:10:53. > :10:57.The newspaper investigation stems from evidence passed to the UK
:10:58. > :11:00.Anti-Doping Agency two years ago by a whistle-blower athlete.
:11:01. > :11:03.It says it failed to act at the time because Bonar was not
:11:04. > :11:06.governed by any one sport, but decided not to pass the case
:11:07. > :11:13.The Culture, Media and Sport Secretary John Whittingdale said
:11:14. > :11:16.he was shocked and deeply concerned by these allegations and has asked
:11:17. > :11:17.for an urgent independent investigation.
:11:18. > :11:23.He added doping could be made a criminal offence for athletes.
:11:24. > :11:26.I think I welcome the fact that there's going to be an investigation
:11:27. > :11:29.into UK Anti-doping and the way it operates.
:11:30. > :11:32.If that then leads to more robust procedures being put in place,
:11:33. > :11:37.more funding being put in place, and hopefully at some stage even
:11:38. > :11:40.leading towards the criminalisation of steroid use in sports,
:11:41. > :11:46.Bonar's conduct is currently the subject of an investigation
:11:47. > :11:50.by the GMC into the treatment of a patient not related to sport.
:11:51. > :11:53.Today, his clinic terminated its agreement with him,
:11:54. > :11:55.after it was revealed he does not currently have a UK licence
:11:56. > :12:02.Tonight, Bonar said the newspaper allegations were false and very
:12:03. > :12:05.misleading and he has never had a relationship with any
:12:06. > :12:07.Premier League football club or player.
:12:08. > :12:10.These are unsubstantiated allegations.
:12:11. > :12:12.Investigators will treat them with caution until they are presented
:12:13. > :12:17.But they do raise questions about those tasked with protecting
:12:18. > :12:21.clean sport and the fear will be that, amid a doping crisis,
:12:22. > :12:24.this could just be evidence that the range of sports afflicted
:12:25. > :12:32.The suspicion currently hanging over the integrity of sport shows little
:12:33. > :12:49.A woman jailed for drug smuggling in Peru in three years ago
:12:50. > :12:52.has spoken for the first time about what she called her
:12:53. > :12:55.Michaela McCollum, who's from County Tyrone, was arrested
:12:56. > :12:58.at Lima Airport with cocaine in her luggage.

:13:13. > :13:16.later admitted trying to smuggle drugs out of Peru.
:13:17. > :13:21.There were jailed for six years and eight months,
:13:22. > :13:24.Now a very different looking 23-year-old,
:13:25. > :13:27.she has given her first TV interview since leaving prison.
:13:28. > :13:30.Feels like a dream, feels like it's not real.
:13:31. > :13:34.Feels like I'm going to wake up any moment and be back in a nightmare.
:13:35. > :13:43.A lot of times, I didn't know how to say no to somebody.
:13:44. > :13:46.I kind of just followed along with it.
:13:47. > :13:49.I guess part of me kind of wanted to be something that I'm not.
:13:50. > :13:51.Seen here, shortly after they were sentenced,
:13:52. > :13:55.McCollum and Reid were found with 11 kilograms of cocaine,
:13:56. > :13:57.stuffed into food packets in their luggage.
:13:58. > :14:00.The drugs were worth more than ?1 million.
:14:01. > :14:02.McCollum says she now realises the damage her actions
:14:03. > :14:08.Obviously I regret the harm that I've done, so much suffering
:14:09. > :14:15.Obviously in the time here, I thought, if the drugs had have got
:14:16. > :14:19.I probably would have had a lot of blood my hands.
:14:20. > :14:22.The amount of families that would have ruined,
:14:23. > :14:27.I did that, I caused destruction to society.
:14:28. > :14:30.It's simply that I made a decision in a moment of madness.
:14:31. > :14:34.I want to demonstrate that I'm a good person.
:14:35. > :14:37.It's understood McCollum will won't be free to leave Peru
:14:38. > :14:39.It's understood McCollum won't be free to leave Peru
:14:40. > :14:43.for some time, under the conditions of her parole.
:14:44. > :14:45.Melissa Reid, who has been seeking to serve what is left
:14:46. > :14:48.of her sentence closer to home in Scotland, remains in jail.
