This week at Balmoral we have all been trying to help William and Harry come to terms with the devastating loss that they and the rest of us have suffered.

No one who knew Diana will ever forget her.

Millions of others who never met her,

but feel they knew her, will remember her. I for one believe there are lessons to be drawn from her life and

the extraordinary and moving reaction to her death. I share in your determination to cherish her memory.

Our thoughts are also with Diana's family and the families of those who died with her as they seek to heal their

sorrow and then to face the future without a loved one. Welcome to the Crown, the official podcast. I'm Edith Bowman and this is the show that follows the sixth and final season of the Netflix series The Crown, episode by episode.

We'll take you behind the scenes, speaking with many of the creators involved and dive deep into the stories.

Today we'll be talking about episode 4 titled Aftermath.

After the news breaks of the fatal car accident killing Diana, Doherty and driver

Henri Pooh, devastated Prince Charles travels to Paris to supervise arrangements.

On his return to the Royal Family at Balmoro, Charles

warns the Queen that the unprecedented public outpouring of grief could put the family in

a difficult position if they don't break with

rigid protocol and make themselves visible to the public. At the same time as

Diana's death sends shock waves through the palace, Fyad processes the loss of his cherished

son. Despite hoping that the news will bring him and the royal family together in shared grief. He instead finds himself

increasingly shunned. We'll cover specific events and scenes that feature in this

episode so if you haven't managed to watch episode 4 yet I suggest you do

that now or very soon coming up on this episode of the Crown the official

podcast we'll hear from the research team on why it was so important

to recreate Dodefayad's funeral with such accuracy.
