Google results aren't even the issue here.
Wouldn't interviewing a President (let alone 4 Presidents), a Queen and other heads of state be a crowning achievement for a TV reporter?
I would think a reporter would get copies of these crowning achievements, if for nothing else to show family, friends, grandchildren later in life. Alan seems to have failed to do that, not once, not twice, not three times, but at least 4 times, or we wouldn't be talking about what Google results show. Alan could have shown the video. Hell maybe counting Queens and other heads of state he failed to get copies much more than 4 times....maybe as many as 18.
THAT seems to be his number.
