On returning home, Woodward gave a press conference, which was broadcast live in the UK and Boston. She said that she would be giving an interview to the BBC, for no money, and wanted to return to her life. The interview was conducted by Martin Bashir in a special edition of the flagship BBC programme "Panorama", in which she maintained her innocence. In a later interview, Woodward admitted to "lightly shaking" the unresponsive baby, an action recommended by the National Institutes of Health.
