If you have been reading all the coverage on Alex Salmond and want to know more about how he changed British politics, then I genuinely do recommend giving the series a watch. His interview was honest and forthright and fascinating. We never suspected it would be his last word on an amazing career.
Itās fair to say that Alex was not happy with all of the series, Salmond & Sturgeon: A Troubled Union, however I believe that we made a fair and balanced series that revealed much about his remarkable political achievements and gave some insight into where it all went wrong.
There are a lot of tributes out there. Some fair and insightful and some written by older male columnists whose obits have revealed far more about their own outdated perspectives than their subject.
He was the most gifted politician I have ever met, he could be great company and, sometimes, difficult.
š§µThe loss of Alex Salmond has come as a terrible shock. Iāve known him for over 15 years and in that period Iāve interviewed him numerous times for projects as varied as charity telethons to documentaries about Robert Burns.
