Susan Dean - 11/24/2023
Excellent analysis of what really happened in August 1997 & the truth about the Balmoral photoshoot. This episode was enhanced by the recollections of Richard Kay. Looking forward to the next episode. Some of what is portrayed in The Crown obviously didn’t happen. It’s good to hear what the actual protocol is from Robert Hardman & how some incidents/conversations just wouldn’t have taken place. Well done to all involved in the podcast.
