EXCLU: “I was blown away by how authentic Elizabeth Debicki was in her portrayal of Diana. It was like being back in the room with her 30 years ago. It was unnerving. It was like being with a ghost. It spoke to me very clearly,' Andrew Morton said.

in which his office is broken into is accurate, that he believes the break-in was part of a campaign to intimidate him, and that he believed Diana’s claims that her phones were being bugged—as depicted in the show.

One of the themes in the new series of the Netflix show is that Princess Diana believes her phone is being bugged, and that she is being spied on by Britain’s security services. The theme is established in the second episode, when Diana starts to express anxiety about hearing strange clicks and noises on her phone.

Her private secretary Patrick Jephson replies: “It’s my understanding that every call, incoming and outgoing, goes through the main palace switchboard, making it very difficult indeed to set up a tap.”The background to all this is that she is starting to collaborate with Morton, then a royal correspondent, using tapes supplied to him by an intermediary, James Colthurst.
