The Story of Diana

The Story of Diana is so powerful that it will stay with you for a while after you watch it. It is a gripping tale of the rise and fall of Lady Di. The makers do an incredible work of putting together voices from the press, the photographers, her inner circle, high society privileged tribe and more.

It is powerful to see her emerge as a woman of strength after moving out of the royal family and carving an identity for herself. What touches you the most is how she picked up the ashes and was ready to move to a happier place in life when she met an unfortunate end.

The account put together in the film from the point she met with the accident to the last frame showing her final goodbye will leave a lump in your throat. Your heart will go out to the young William and little Harry as they follow their mother's body.

The Story of Diana has a roller coaster of emotions - you will feel rapturous, angry, heavy-hearted and still happy when you see Lady Di's infectious smile.

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 really beautifully well made documentary. Lovely insight into the whole Diana story. A must watch.

Shown over a two-day period (August 9 and August 10, 2017) on network TV, Diana Spencer is fairly portrayed as a fairy tale princess of our modern day who made the best of her situation. While she fought back the best she could against the infidelities of Charles during her marriage, her manipulative ways and her own infidelities tarnished her reputation. If nothing else, she was a goodwill ambassador for the British monarchy and was influential for the projects she was most passionate about. And, she was a wonderful mother. Perhaps, that is the saddest part of her story, that she never got the chance to be the wonderful grandmother that she could have been had she lived.

Part 1 was wonderful and tearful but it wasn't the story of Diana. It was more of 'The Story of Princess Diana'. We know nothing about her childhood except certain moments spoken by her brother.

Part 2: It's all about the stalking, shameless media and how it drove the Princess crazy and sad. This is more of the story of a Disgusting British media and the criminals of British islands aka 'Australian' media - the real murderers of Diana.

In Short, it's Not The Story of Diana. It's the story of her murderers - the Brit media, the Australian media and the flirty Charles & his pros mistress B*. Camilla.

Worth a watch though..
