The plot focuses on the differing views in how to deal with the death of Diana. The Queen, along with her husband and mother, see the death as a private matter, not to be treated as an official Royal death, in contrast with Diana's former husband Prince Charles and Tony Blair, who attempt to reflect the public wish for an official expression of grief. Matters are further complicated by the media, royal protocol regarding Diana's official status, and wider issues about Republicanism.

The film begins on the eve of the 1997 British general election, which saw Tony Blair (Sheen) as the United Kingdom's first Labour Party Prime Minister in 18 years. Results The election was fought under new boundaries with a net increase of eight seats compared to the 1992 election Anthony Charles Lynton "Tony" Blair (born 6 May 1953 is a British Politician who was Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 2 May 1997 to The Labour Party is a Political party in the United Kingdom.

Her Majesty's Government, or when the monarch is male His Majesty's Government, is the title used by the Government of the United Kingdom, based at

On 31 August 1997, Diana Princess of Wales died as a result of injuries sustained in a car crash in the Pont de l'Alma road Blair makes a public statement, written by his director of communications, Alastair Campbell (Mark Bazeley), in which he describes Diana as "the People's Princess. Public relations (PR is the practice of managing the flow of Information between an Organization and its Publics Public relations - often referred This is about the political associate of Tony Blair for others see Alistair Campbell (disambiguation. " The phrase catches on immediately. Over the next few days, Britons erupt in an intense state of grief, as millions go to Buckingham Palace and Kensington Palace to place floral tributes and notes along the railings. Buckingham Palace is the official London residence of the British monarch. Kensington Palace is a royal residence set in Kensington Gardens in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea in London, England

Meanwhile, the Royal Family is still on holiday at Balmoral Castle, the Queen's Scottish estate in Aberdeenshire, a contrast with the relatively modest middle-class household the Blairs keep in their constituency. Balmoral Castle is a large Estate house situated in the area of Aberdeenshire, Scotland known as Royal Deeside.

Diana's death sparks mixed feelings among senior members of the family. Diana had not been much beloved by them while she was alive. The Queen observes that, since Diana divorced her son, Charles, Prince of Wales (Alex Jennings), a year before, Diana is no longer a member of the Royal Family. Alex Jennings (born 10 May 1957 is an award-winning English Actor perhaps best known for his supporting role as Charles Prince of Wales in Consequently, as she insists to Blair, the funeral arrangements are a "private matter" to be left to the late princess's own family, the Spencers. There are many Spencer families, comprising all individuals with the surname Spencer. After initially hesitating, she accedes to Prince Charles' request, following the Queen Mother's suggestion, for his use of an aircraft of the Royal Flight to fly to Paris and bring Diana's body back to England.

The Queen's Guard and Queen's Life Guard are the names given to contingents of Infantry and Cavalry soldiers charged with guarding the official royal As the days pass, the British tabloids become increasingly impatient with the absence of an expression of public condolence from the royal family. A tabloid is a Newspaper industry term which refers to a smaller newspaper format per spread to a weekly or semi-weekly alternative newspaper that focuses on local-interest Prince Charles, during a brief conversation with Blair when Diana's body is returned to London and later through back-channel contacts, leaves no doubt that he shares Blair's views about the need for a more public expression of grief. In telecommunications A back-channel (also reverse channel or return channel) is typically a low-speed or less-than-optimal transmission channel Blair's popularity rises sharply, to the delight of the Prime Minister's more republican advisers, including his wife, Cherie (Helen McCrory), who see the Monarchy as hopelessly antiquated.

Helen McCrory (born 17 August 1968 is a BAFTA Award -winning English Actress.

Blair, however, does not share these sentiments. He wants to save the Royal Family "from themselves" before it is too late. Despite not concurring with the Royal Family's course of action, Blair respects the Royal Family and chides his wife for her lack of respect. (Later on, Blair reveals himself as a traditionalist who supports the Monarchy and angrily denounces the anti-royal disdain of his Labour counterparts. ) After days of building pressure, Blair calls the Queen at Balmoral and urgently recommends a course of action he believes is needed to retain (or regain) the public's confidence in the Monarchy. These measures include attending a public funeral for Diana at Westminster Abbey, flying a Union Flag at half mast over Buckingham Palace (a step without precedent in four centuries of royal protocol), and speaking to the nation about Diana's legacy in a live, televised address from the Palace. The Collegiate Church of St Peter at Westminster, which is almost always referred to by its original name of Westminster Abbey, is a large mainly Gothic church The Union Flag, also known as the Union Jack, is the national flag of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Half-staff or half-mast describes a Flag flying approximately halfway up a flagpole or ship's mast (though anywhere from one-third to two-thirds of the way up is acceptable

Blair's recommendations outrage the Queen's husband, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh (James Cromwell) and the Queen Mother (Sylvia Syms). James Oliver Cromwell (born January 27, 1940) sometimes credited as Jamie Cromwell, is an American Film and Television Sylvia Syms OBE (born 6 January 1934) is an Ondas Award-winning English actress. Philip is also surprised that Elton John is asked to attend and sing a song (Candle in the Wind) in Diana's honour.

They view such steps as an undignified surrender to public hysteria, created by the tabloids, that will eventually calm down when the public comes to its senses. The Queen seems more concerned about this and although she shares their feelings, she begins to have doubts as she closely follows the news coverage. Speaking with her mother, the Queen muses that there has been some shift in public values, that perhaps one should step aside and hand over the monarchy to the next generation when one no longer understands one's people. Her mother reminds the Queen of the vow she made as a princess (to devote "my whole life, whether it be long or short. . . to your service").

While at Balmoral, as a way to take their minds off Diana's death, Philip takes his grandsons on stalks, to take a 14 point stag that has been sighted on the estate. Defined narrowly a game stalker is a hunter who for sport approaches close to his timid quarry before making a kill A deer is a Ruminant Mammal belonging to the family Cervidae.

Hearing a distant gunshot, she shooes the animal away, and it appears it has escaped. Later in the day, the Queen decides to carry out the recommendations of Blair. While preparing to leave for London she learns the stag has been taken on a neighbouring estate, by a visitor on a commercial shoot. She visits the estate where the stag is being dressed, and shares concern with the estate gamekeeper at the amateurish way it was hunted, and hopes that it had not suffered.

The film ends when the Queen returns to London, inspects the floral tributes, and goes on live television to speak about Diana's life and work, even going so far as calling her "an exceptional and gifted human being. " This gesture seems to diffuse the public's anger. Two months later, Blair comes to the Palace for a weekly meeting. The Queen has regained her popularity, but believes she will never quite fully recover from "that week". She cautions Blair that he too will find, one day, that public opinion can turn rapidly. With some banter about who should be advising whom, they go for a walk in the Palace garden, talking about Blair's current policy plans and apparently enjoying each other's company. Then the credits roll.

Morgan has said that her performance was so convincing that, by the end of production, crew members who had been accustomed to slouching or relaxing when they addressed her were standing straight up and respectfully folding their hands behind their backs.

Historical Inaccuracy

Screenwriter Peter Morgan has stated that the film was not intended to be an historically accurate representation of the Queen's role. He says "As far as I am aware, I wrote about a cold, emotionally detached, haughty, difficult, prickly, private, uncommunicative, out-of-touch bigot. But people adore her [i. e. the character], because they think it was written with compassion and integrity rather than being a hatchet job. " [11] However, there was considerable effort to recount the story with a degree of accuracy. Morgan reconstructed the events of that week through extensive interviews with many unnamed sources close to the Prime Minister and the Royal Family. Many of these sources were able to corroborate the accounts of others, giving Morgan enough information to imagine the intervening scenes. [6]

Some aspects of the characters are known to be true to their real-life counterparts. Cherie Blair's hostility to the monarchy has been widely reported, including her refusal to curtsey. Cherie Blair (born 23 September 1954 known professionally as Cherie Booth QC, is an English Barrister. A curtsey (also spelled curtsy) is a traditional gesture of greeting in which a woman bends her knees while bowing her head [12] According to Morgan, "cabbage" is an actual term of endearment Philip uses for his wife.

The most notable inaccuracy is that Robin Janvrin is represented as the Queen's Private Secretary during the aftermath of Diana's death, but in fact that position was then occupied by Janvrin's predecessor, Sir Robert Fellowes, a brother-in-law of the late Diana, Princess of Wales; Janvrin was only the Deputy Private Secretary up until 1999 when he took the position of Private Secretary to the Queen.
