- But in a rare lapse, former US president Bill Clinton (left)
lost his temper, when asked repeatedly in a BBC interview if he
was genuine in voicing regret over his affair with ex-intern
Monica Lewinsky.

- He ranted for several minutes at Mr David Dimbleby during
the taping for the programme, Panorama.

- Mr Clinton then branched out into an attack on media intrusion
into the private lives of public figures.

- The Times said Monday that Clinton, known for being media savvy
and cheerful in public, let out a rant that lasted several minutes.

instant. It is something substantial and sustained," said a BBC
executive who viewed the interview, according to the Sunday Telegraph.
