THE French priest who gave Princess Diana the last rites as she lay dying in hospital has condemned TV drama The Crown for scenes that recreate the lead up to her fatal crash in Paris.
Father Yves-Marie Clochard-Bossuet says: “Their filming is commercially driven, and they are simply interested in attracting as many viewers as possible.”
Yep, that’s the name of the game. But here’s the thing: Viewers don’t have to play it.
But we always do. And we will again.
Mark my words. Despite the widespread criticism and the online message boards flooded with virtue signallers saying how disgusted they are by The Crown’s exploitation of Princess Diana, her marriage breakdown and subsequent death, the majority of them will still watch and it will be “trending” within hours of series five being released next week.
