I've heard it said , that if you want to improve your income from the public, then dying is a really good career move. Someone made shedloads from the flowers, flags, T-shirts, moosical tributes, books, postcards, interviews "by friends who knew her best". Not just Paul Burrell and James Hewitt. And anything to do with her still sells very well.

Diana was killed because she was about to reveal that Prince Charles had an affair err no that already happened. Okay she was killed because she was about to reveal all in a tell all interview err no that already happened. She was pregnant and her Muslim baby would be in line to the throne err no that doesn't work because her divorce meant that any future children would not be linked to the Royal family. So I am hard put to understand a motive for her assassination any damage that she could do to the Royal family had already been done. Occam's razor she was killed by a drunk driver who baited the press to catch him and a bodyguard who failed to do his job and ensure she didn't get in the car with said drunk and wear a seat belt. The French have no love for us if it was anything else I am sure they would not have held back. Pretty much how I see it. Diana was an enormous pain in the arse, but if that was a reason to assassinate people gay men would be in hiding. The ridiculously over the top out pouring at her funeral was the first time I noticed just how overtly feminised our society had become.

Although it wasn't Charles Calthrop in the end.

Those who queued for hours to sign a book of condolence, the mountains of flowers left at Royal residences every day, and of particular hilarity, the funeral procession with people crying and throwing flowers at her coffin.

This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

She ain't dead. She's living on an island, riding Shergar and drinking cocktails with Elvis, JFK and Lord Lucan.

Yeah your probably right. Got the impression she was a bit of an old bike.
