Comment
In the days between Princess Diana's death and her funeral the Queen has to deal with and come to terms with her views, the popular views of the press and nation and the political pressures on Tony Blair as the new Prime Minister. A good examination of the philosophise of the people involved and fortunately avoids the conspiracy theories. Helen Mirren rightly recieved an Oscar nominationfor her portrayal of the Queen.
