The film set on the 1997 which saw Tony Blair as the United Kingdom's first Labour Party Prime Minister in 18 years. Queen Elizabeth is slightly wary of the new prime minister and his pledge to 'modernise' the country, but Blair promises to respect the independence of the Royal Family. Blair with his wife, visits Buckingham Palace for the first of his weekly audiences with the Queen, this scene, is pretty look funny, how the new moderisme prime minister, must obey the rule of Kingdom, the protocol said that he must bow when meet the queen, and her wife must be wait, outside the door, until the queen receipt her to get in. Blair must down on knee when the queen, blessed him as a new prime minister of United Kingdom.

A few months later, Diana, Princess of Wales is killed in a car accident while visiting Paris with her boyfriend, Dodi Al Fayed. Britons erupt in an intense state of grief, as millions come to Buckingham Palace to place floral tributes along the fence. Blair makes a public statement, written by his director of communications, Alastair Campbell, in which he describes Diana as 'the People's Princess'. The phrase catches on immediately.

Meanwhile, the Royal Family is still on holiday at Balmoral Castle, the Queen's Scottish estate in Aberdeenshire, a contrast with the relatively modest middle-class household the Blairs keep in their constituency, Blair's house, were decorate with a book, one gibson guitar, and full of kitchen set. Diana's death sparks mixed feelings among senior members of the family. Diana had not been much beloved by them while she was alive. The Queen observes that, since Diana divorced her son, the Prince of Wales, a year before, Diana is no longer a member of the Royal Family. Consequently, as she insists to Blair, the funeral arrangements are a "private funeral" to be left to the late princess's own family. After initially hesitating, though, she accedes to Prince Charles' request for his use of an aircraft of the Queen's Flight to fly to Paris and bring Diana's body back to Britain. Charles ensures that Diana's coffin is draped with a royal standard instead of being a "plain wooden box."

The British public went temporarily insane. Outpourings of grief for Diana; queues to sign hastily set up books of condolence; rotting floral tributes all over London. And Blair, aided and abetted by Alastair Campbell, seizes the moment, describing Diana as ‘The People’s Princess’. The beleagured Queen, isolated in Scotland, is increasingly vilified in the press for her terribly British reaction – and it's up to Blair to try and save the monarchy from itself.The newspaper is take a lead, government keep watching the development of English grief, when they see one statement from, people, who want to watch the Queen came to london, and they want flag half of pole on the palace, the soft war between monarchi of England, and the people, around the world.
