He was the BBC's first television correspondent in Moscow, but was expelled in 1985 for 'activities not compatible with his status' .. The Soviet security services later described him as a British Intelligence operative who worked for the BBC under the code name 'Timosha'. Tim Sebastian denied these charges.
