Following the dramatic political change in Burma led by Nobel Peace Prize recipient Aung San Suu Kyi, the BBC was asked to assist in the creation of Burma's new public broadcasting network, and the individual they chose to advise was Sandy Bremner.
BBC Scotland’s Managing Editor for the Northeast and Northern Isles, Sandy Bremner has a distinguished background as a television executive and journalist.
Born in Banff and a graduate of the 51cg, Bremner was an investigative reporter for the Press and Journal, winning Scotland’s Young Journalist of the Year award, before joining the BBC.
In this Masterclass, Sandy will talk about his role in stories on the Orkney child abuse inquiry, the Piper Alpha tragedy, Hong Kong’s handover to China, Diana’s fatal crash and his ongoing activities in Burma.
