Diana’s disgraced Panorama interview to be aired on Sky, against Prince William’s wishes
The Telegraph“It is my firm view that this Panorama programme holds no legitimacy and should never be aired again,” the Duke said in May 2021. “It effectively established a false narrative which, for over a quarter of a century, has been commercialised by the BBC and others.” It will come just weeks after the BBC’s director-general apologised again for the interview, vowing the corporation would not show the Panorama episode in full again, with only “few and far between” reasons for extracts to be used for journalistic purposes. BBC distances itself from film The BBC on Thursday distanced itself from the new film, saying it had not granted any live or outstanding licences for “any or all” of the interview to be aired. A Sky spokesperson said filmmakers believe it tells the story of the late Princess in an “unmediated way”. “As the film aims to tell Diana’s story through archive material as it occurred, it is not influenced by the context of what we know now, about this, or any other event.”
