      Nicholson was outside of the embassy as the helicopter was taking off I think

        Very sad news indeed. Along with Director Dave Munroe, he brought the tragedy of Cambodia to our screens. If not for him the tragedy of Pol pot and the Khmer rouge 4 years in power may have not been fully known. Superb journalist.
        I recommend Year Zero- Silent death of Cambodia and the follow up Documentaries including Betrayal.

            Oh good Blair is back controlling Labour central office along with Maddy, here we go again.
