The Diana Chronicles

Even after her death, Princess Diana remains a mystery. Was she 'the people's princess', who electrified the world with her beauty and humanitarian missions? Or was she a manipulative, media­savvy neurotic who nearly brought down the monarchy? In The Diana Chronicles, listeners will meet a formidable female cast: Diana's mother, her scheming grandmother, stepmother, and a terrifying trio of in-laws and relations: Fergie; Princess Margaret, the fading glamour girl; the implacable Queen Mother and - more formidable than all of them - her mother-in-law, the Queen. Add Camilla Parker-Bowles, the ultimate 'other woman' into this combustible mix, and it's no wonder that Diana felt the need to break out of her royal cage into celebrity culture.
