The cold open features interviews with two distinctly different photographers.
Muir gives the impression of a fictional character and serves asThe Crowns official acknowledgment ofQueen Elizabeths death in 2022.
Oh, that girl, sighs the queen.
Her Majesty isnt wrong with that sentiment, just misguided.
The wayThe Crowntells it, Diana is little more than a sitting duck.
But Diana cant worry about that right now because shes about to see her sons for the last time.
Oh, listen to your son, Diana!
But thats idealistic thinking, just like this whole interaction is in the first place.
While the royals are in Scotland,Diana heads to Bosniato visit land-mine victims.
That famous event, with Diana covered in protective equipment, took place in Angola in January 1997.
The queen is disgusted.
Charles is oddly curious; Harry catches his pa sneaking a peek, LOL.
Mohamed, on the other hand, is delighted.
Never mind the effect of the photos on Dianas mental health the palace has gone into full damage-control mode.
Charless private secretary wants to take advantage of the situation with a counterphoto.
It doesnt take much to convince Charles because he knows the drill.
(In reality,Arthur Edwards served as photographer.)
The next round of papers arrives, and the photos are a massive success.
Most important, the queen is pleased.
Maybe if the queen had provided compassion instead of judgment, Diana would still be alive today.
Its Diana who is erratic, reckless, and out of control.
Not the relentless photographers, her spineless boyfriend, or her unscrupulous friend Mohamed Al-Fayed.
Do you, Lilibet?
Did you ever truly feel that way?
Dianas Duran Duran T-shirtis such a nice touch.
