Talk about buckling under pressure. The House of Mountbatten Windsor still has say over their fucking media. Isn't Netflix worth more than their entire Crown Estate?
God DAMN the King!!!

Lol what a thing to get pissy about

I don’t think they were forced. The show cares more about the private reactions behind closed doors than the public events.

But it is a private event, no adaptation of this crucial event is not yet filmed to celluloid.

Perhaps they could also skip past the world wide televised funeral and parading around of the children as Royal Props to exploit for attention too.

Probably the right decision, it wouldn’t have added anything to the show besides a grotesque voyeurism.

No, it's not and a very cop out structure of storytelling. The Crown is known for its nuance and balanced storytelling so leaving one of the most important factors that led to the monarchy nearing dissolving in the subsequent funeral is hogwash.

It’s not as if they’re skipping her death entirely. Can’t think of anything more nuanced than deciding we don’t really need to watch Diana die to tell this story.

Yes, it should, because from the story's perspective, she's one of the main characters of the show. We had like 3 seasons worth of her character in the story. Nobody likes an offscreen death of a character who is on half of the shows runtime, do we.

It is a show that is about nothing but grotesque Voyeurism.

Probably right decision since tons of people on social media get angry very easy.

I'll never get the obsession with this family.

I pretty much don't care about royalty, but the Crown is a fantastic show.

That's it. They're not avoiding the story.
