- On 22 December 1984, ITN filmed US President Ronald Reagan as he welcomed British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher to Camp David, the president's country retreat 62 miles outside Washington DC. Thatcher was accompanied by George HW Bush, Reagan's Vice President, who spoke with Thatcher over breakfast before the main talks scheduled for the afternoon. On the agenda were issues around the US Strategic Defence Initiative (SDI), more commonly known as the Star Wars programme. The pair would also discuss the recent visit to Britain made by Soviet president Mikhail Gorbachev, giving Thatcher a chance to brief Reagan on the personality now leading the USSR. In a press conference following the talks, Thatcher described how she had assured Mr Gorbachev of the steadfast alliance between Great Britain and the United States, and warned him of the futility of trying to drive a wedge between them.
