Only a week after the head of BBC pledged never to broadcast again its discredited interview with the Princess of Wales, it emerges that extracts from the 1995 programme will be included in a documentary to be shown on networks Sky and Now TV next month.
'The Princess', a documentary directed by Ed Perkins re-telling the late Princess's life through archive footage, will include footage of the interview, despite her son Prince William also expressing his wishes that this never be aired again. Perkins' film has already had a brief run in UK cinemas, reports Deadline.
The BBC returned the BAFTA award it won for the Panorama interview, in which Diana revealed her distress in her marriage, her eating disorders and her prophecy that she would never be queen, after interviewer Martin Bashir's deceptive practices in obtaining Diana's agreement to be interviewed were uncovered.
