The Isle of Man is set to feature in a BBC programme about tax avoidance this weekend.

Journalists from Panorama have produced two programmes, the first of which will be shown on Sunday - Chief Minister Howard Quayle was interviewed for the show.

It's after hackers breached law firm Appleby, which has offices on the Island, and made off with client data.

The company has denied any wrongdoing.
