Nigel Ely was working with Sky News when the famous statue of Saddam Hussien was toppled in Baghdad. With the help of a US Marine, Nigel managed to get his hands on a piece of that statue, the left buttock to be precise. The buttock is now in hiding and estimated to be worth seven to ten million US dollars. You’re going to hear Nigel’s action-packed story of how he came face to face with three angry American gunships, was ambushed, shot at, interrogated and ultimately escaped with a modern-day version of the Mona Lisa. I hope you enjoy the episode.
