The main things I took from this were: being impressed at how Timothy Spall was able to keep his facial expression looking exactly like a dog’s anus for the whole film, thinking that Diana’s chambermaids ushering her along a corridor looked like volunteer stewards at a CAMRA beer festival, and empathising with Diana’s feeling of being hopelessly trapped. Although in the case of the latter, mine was less about a restrictive dynastic culture and more about having paid £4.50 to rent on Prime and I might as well see it through cos there’s no way I’ll be going back to finish it later.
During her Christmas holidays with the royal family at the Sandringham estate in Norfolk, England, Diana decides to leave her marriage to Prince Charles.
