Wingfield-Hayes' producer producer Maria Byrne and cameraman Matthew Goddard were also held. The BBC said Wingfield-Hayes was questioned for eight hours by North Korean officials and was made to sign a statement. The BBC said that the North Korean leadership was "displeased with [the crew's] reports highlighting aspects of life" in North Korea's capital, Pyongyang. A BBC correspondent and his crew were detained for three days before being ordered to leave North Korea Monday after officials from the country's communist dictatorship became upset over the content of his reporting. In the report, Wingfield-Hayes said the children kept in the hospital looked "remarkably well, and there isn't a real doctor in sight".
