SIR Paul McCartney declined to take part in a film about a Russian attack on Greenpeace, despite being instrumental in helping to secure the release of 30 activists.
BBC producers pleaded with the former Beatle to take part, but the offer was refused amid security fears around the 81-year-old pop legend.
The film covers how Macca wrote his 2013 letter to Vladimir Putin calling for the release of 28 Greenpeace members and two journalists.
