It is almost 30 years since the death of Princess Diana, a moment that changed the royal family, the British public, and the way we think about the monarchy. In the years since, her story has continued to shape the royal family, from William and Harry's very different paths, to Harry and Meghan stepping away from royal duties, and publicly criticising the institution.  So, how much has the monarchy really changed since Diana’s death, and how much of what we see today can be traced back to 1997? Enda Brady joins Pat to look at Diana’s enduring legacy, the royal family today, and the latest chapter in the Harry and Meghan story.
