About this episode
The Front Page is revisiting some of the major stories we covered in 2022.
August marked 25 years since Diana, Princess of Wales died in a car crash in Paris.
The shadow of her shock death still hangs over the British monarchy, which today finds itself embroiled in its most contentious period since the bitterness of the nineties as her children now find themselves fighting the same battles she did.
Documentarian Ed Perkins' film The Princess offered a fresh perspective on the story familiar to so many around the world.
He joined Damien in August to discuss Princess Diana’s legacy and how her public fight is mirrored in the Royal battles unfolding today.
You can read more about this and other stories in the New Zealand Herald, online at nzherald.co.nz, or tune in to news bulletins across the NZME network. New episodes return on January 9th.
