We investigate why an episode of Hardtalk received so many complaints. Rajan Datar speaks to long-standing BBC broadcaster Robin Lustig to get his views on walking the line between interrogation and rudeness. And, following the rerun of a Newsnight interview on the BBC World Service with the mother of a Columbine massacre shooter, Robin talks about the intricacies of handling sensitive information.
