As Francis Bacon's influence and legacy fall under the spotlight with Tate Britain's major retrospective, this evening discussion, chaired by Tim Marlow, asks Maggi Hambling, Jenny Saville and Nigel Cooke to share their views and relationship to the painter. They offer an artists perspective into what makes Bacon "One of the greatest painters of all time".
