The world was stunned when Diana, Princess of Wales and her companion Dodi Fayed were killed in a high speed car crash in Paris in August 1997 as their Mercedes attempted to escape the chasing paparazzi. A lengthy enquiry judged the crash to have been an accident after chauffeur Henri Paul was found to have high levels of alcohol and anti-depressants in his blood. Mourners left more than a million bouquets of flowers outside Princess Diana’s London home, and much of the world came to a standstill for her funeral in Westminster Abbey, which was watched by an estimated 2.5 billion television viewers
