Indeed, it took the British Broadcasting Corp. As a matter of fact, the BBC team conducted interviews with nearly all the Watergate principles except Nixon himself. The 55 interviews included everyone from the conspirators - Dean, John Ehrlich-man, H. Haldeman in the last interview before his death , Jeb Magruder - the burglars including G. Gordon Liddy , the prosecutors including Archibald Cox , a member of the grand jury that wanted to indict Nixon, even Nixon's second vice president, Gerald Ford - an amazing array.
And Nixon - who resigned from office 20 years ago this Tuesday - appears via news footage of the period and David Frost's famous interviews, including outtakes from those interviews that have never been seen before. Indeed, the producers admit that when they began work on the documentary they were unconvinced that the prevailing view - that Nixon was indeed guilty of the crimes that forced his resignation - was factual. But the evidence piled up that Nixon was indeed guilty.
The documentary dispassionately lays out that evidence - most notably tape recordings of Nixon himself authorizing the cover-up - leaving no doubt as to the former president's culpability. Part 1 looks at the events leading up to the burglary; Part 2 deals with the plotting of the cover-up; Part 3 how the cover-up fell apart; Part 4 Nixon's battles to prevent the release of the damning tapes to the prosecutors and Congress; and Part 5 the events that led to his resignation.
What helped convince the producers was also what convinced the prosecutors that Dean was telling the truth. Part 3 of the documentary recounts the moment when the prosecutors informed Dean that the Oval Office tapes existed.

The materials generated to prepare the President for the interviews make up the first three series of this collection. It includes four different versions of transcripts of the interviews. Preservation and original order for the transcripts was maintained by dividing them into series that document the order in which they were created.
The Office of Richard Nixon created a set of transcripts designated as Speech File Drafts that appear to be the first drafts of the transcripts. The final series of the collection consist of the actual broadcast transcripts. Roughly 28 hours of interviews were edited down to four 90 minutes broadcasts.

Haldeman - whose forced resignations left the former President emotionally drained and whom he kept on his staff out of kindness too long - kept a judicious silence. Ehrlichman is serving a term at an open prison in Arizona and could not be reached, but the warden said the programme was not broadcast on the two channels available in the prison.
The two heroes of the Watergate impeachment process on Capitol Hill reacted predictably. Rabbi Baruch Korff, who became a frequent visitor to the White House and a staunch supporter of Mr Nixon to the end, accused David Frost of baiting him. When it comes to the differences between what Mr Nixon told David Frost and the actual record as known from published tapes, there were three discrepancies.
Mr Nixon conceded in the interview that he had known by June 22, , that Gordon Liddy had been involved in the Watergate burglary, but never told the judicial authorities.
