The upcoming fifth season of hit Netflix<\/a> drama The Crown<\/a> will reportedly depict Princess Diana\u2019s 1995 interview with Martin Bashir for Panorama, and will reflect information that has since been revealed about how the interview was obtained.<\/p>\n

The interview made headlines as Diana revealed details surrounding the breakdown of her marriage to Prince Charles, and when asked whether Camilla, now Duchess of Cornwall, \u201cwas a factor\u201d in the breakdown, Diana said that \u201cthere were three of us in this marriage so it was a bit crowded\u201d.<\/p>\n

An inquiry was held recently into how the interview was obtained, with the report finding that \u201cdeceitful behaviour\u201d had been used to secure the interview. An internal BBC probe into the same matter in 1996 was also criticised as \u201cwoefully ineffective\u201d.<\/p>\n

Now, a source close to The Crown has reportedly told PA<\/a>: \u201cSeason 5 of The Crown will dramatise events surrounding the Panorama interview, given the pivotal part it played during the time period the new series covers. It will reflect what we now know about how the interview was obtained and how Diana was treated.\u201d<\/p>\n
