Paul Kenyon: 30 Years Under Fire as a BBC War Reporter

CONFLICTED

An ex-Al Qaeda jihadi turned MI6 spy and a former monk turned filmmaker, have been embedded at the heart of conflicts in the Middle East. Together Aimen Dean and Thomas Small unpack the realities of war, fundamentalism and their global implications through first-hand experience.

In this episode, Thomas talks to distinguished BBC journalist Paul Kenyon about his new podcast series Two Nottingham Lads. Paul recalls highlights from his remarkable career, which has taken him from Iran to Libya to Ukraine to Stockport —as he watched, in real time, America lose its grip on the international order.

Paul talks about:

 How two Nottingham lads ended up on opposite sides of the Ukraine War

 The time he was detained by Iranian secret police

 Watching anti-Gaddafi tribesmen ride into Benghazi on horseback

 Accompanying unarmed Ukrainian guards as they marched uphill toward Russian troops

 Getting to know the notorious ISIS brides in the Midlands

 Being the only BBC journalist in Liverpool who witnessed the outbreak of the riots there in summer 2004
