 Henry Lincoln - Broadcasting Standards Commission, 1997
Mr Lincoln complained that, by reporting the conclusions he had reached in the 1970s without giving him an opportunity to explain how his views had developed since then, the programme had unfairly given the impression that his research had stood still and that he was associated with the conclusions of Andrews and Schellenberger.
Mr Lincoln repeatedly told the Commission at the hearing that there was nothing in his earlier views which he now disowned; however his views had developed and had been modified by later discoveries, and it was the BBC's refusal to allow him to talk in the programme about his developed views which was unfair.
On Mr Lincoln's complaint that a 1974 statement of his was used in answer to a completely different question posed in the 1996 programme, the Commission was assisted by Mr Lincoln's offer to provide a transcript of the relevant part of the 1974 programme (a copy of which was also provided by the BBC).

The activities of the Abbé Bérenger Saunière (as well as those of Pierre Plantard) are very well documented but Henry Lincoln has not noted these facts and they are certainly not to be found in any of his books.
A one-time television scriptwriter for British television series like ‘Dr Who’ and ‘Emergency Ward 10’ – Henry Lincoln planned from an early age to become an actor and he starred in episodes of ‘The Avengers’; and ‘Man In A Suitcase’ during the 1960s.
Lincoln also co-wrote the screenplay to the 1968 Boris Karloff film ‘The Curse of the Crimson Altar’ and thus was ideally suited to become that someone to collate, to promote and to popularise something that belonged to the world of the imagination.

 dOc DVD Review: Henry Lincoln's Guide To Rennes-Le-Château (2000) - Printable
Lincoln seems plucked out of Central Casting, a spry, white-haired academic who originally followed clues out of an old paperback called Le Trésor maudit (The Accursed Treasure), a book he accidentally came across in the late 1960s while on holiday in France.
Some of the sequences where Lincoln is speaking outdoors have a tendency to clip slightly, and though it doesn't present any listening problems, it seems more noticeable when leading into a piece where the narration was done under more controlled conditions.
Be warned though, this is not for the novice or casual adventurer, as it requires a fair understanding of the story of the priest Saunière, or you may be hopelessly lost.
