An unholy row over bishop accused of bullying. - File on 4 Investigates

Description

Anne Dyer is a trailblazer - becoming the first female Bishop in the Scottish Episcopal Church when she was appointed more than seven years ago. But since then, accusations of bullying and misconduct have dominated her period in charge - even for a time leading to her suspension and calls for her resignation.

Bishop Dyer denies any wrongdoing, while the church itself acknowledges there are deep wounds within the diocese of Aberdeen and Orkney.

Now File on 4 Investigates has discovered new complaints against the bishop, which she says are "totally without merit".
