Featured reviews
A very well made doco about such an iconic figure. I was too young at the time to appreciate who she was when she died in 1997 but the archive footage, good narration and modern twist of this doco gave such valuable insight into who she was and what life is. This is also before The Crown re-generated so much interest in her in recent times. She was a beautiful soul and I felt through Charles Spencer and other sources they did their best to capture her essence. She will always be the People's princess.
A legend, an icon and a star, who was chased to death by the press / paparazzi / media. Two little boys lost a lovable mother so far too soon, a world lost a model of justice and kindness and a royal house lost its luster and credibility from beginning to end.
How can the media and the press live with themselves or sleep well at night after chasing a beloved princess to death?
Luckily, Diana had a brother who stood up for her and who dared to put into words what almost the whole world thought, thank you so much sir Charles Spencer! Thank you for daring to say what everyone thought, your sister would be very proud of you to stand up for her as you did. Your speech at Diana's funeral will be remembered by a whole world, a whole world gave you aplaus this day .
The princess used her advantage for what it was worth in her position, but who would not do it when the opportunity lay before her?
She had no one, absolutely no one in the royal house who stood up for her, or who spoke her case. It was probably this that made her the strong personality she was.
I feel disgust for the media and the press, and disgust for Charles, Camilla and not least for Queen Elisabeth, for their abominable behavior towards Diana.
The royal house got what they wanted in the end, easiest way out of rumors and bad publicity of the royal house.
(Luckily we have freedom of speech and I can write exactly what I want)!
Princess Diana will be remembered for many many decades, she will never be forgotten.
Thank you for being strong enough to pave the way for future generations of women, for standing up for what you thought was right and and not least for standing up for the sick and weak in society!
You will always be a star and Princess of England in my eyes!
Rest in peace the star above all stars.

A really beautifully well made documentary. Lovely insight into the whole Diana story. A must watch.
And I grew up with the story of Lady Diana. This before cable tv. I really think that she tried to use her position, her place in the world, to make lives of unfortuned people, better. I really think that papparazzis are a bunch of assholes and they should all be shot.
When she passed, I was a teenager, didn't know much about her except that she was a very famous and rebellious wife of Prince Charles. This series/documentary really opened up so many aspects of her life and threw light on her struggles in her marriage, and especially with the press. It's truly shocking to think she had to be put through so much pressure from the Palace and being watched every second by the media, made it even harder to not fail or make mistakes.
Her advantage was that, she knew how to manipulate the media and she did, until it got her killed. Such a sad ending to something that could have been a great human legacy. And to think that in modern times, the Palace and the media haven't learned from their mistakes and were doing the same thing to Meghan Markle is astonishing.
It makes perfect sense, now, why she would want to leave Britain and the "royal" (I hate calling them that) family. I didn't use to side with her and her decision to disrupt that family but watching this documentary made me understand her so much better. Smart girl...
