At last, Diana's infamous 1995 BBC interview hits the air (and the monarchy) in TheCrown Season 5 Episode 8.

Episode 8 of The Crown Season 5 opens with a Board of Governors meeting at the BBC, where Director General John Birt has called the session to order. The only problem? It’s technically not his to call. And Big-Dick Board Chairman Duke John Hussey makes a point to alert him so, making a bombastic show as he limps in late to the meeting. It’s the first inclination of the power struggle at the BBC, where traditional leadership like Hussey want things to remain the same.

Diana may have Dr. "Dish" Khan and Bashir eating out of the palm of her hand, but there is one man she cannot win over — her young son William. She again asks for updates over the phone about his time in school, and he monosyllabically responds that it’s not going so great. Some of his friends have visited, and there are some guys he’s hopeful are future friends .

The Duke unknowingly proves Birt’s private assertion when he later asks for a sitdown to ask for the special honoring the Queen his wife requested. Duke wants to do something for her on behalf of the country, as she deserves all of their gratitude for her years of service. And who better to celebrate the Queen than the BBC? The two institutions are “inherently” intertwined, he says. Birt can’t help himself and uses the tee-up to swat down what he sees as the Duke’s outdated views.

With that all said, the big night for the modern-day Gunpowder Plot has finally come, and we see Catesby/Bashir suit up to sneak into Kensington. Once again, there seems to be no worst security than that of Kensington Palace. Whereas earlier this season, Diana’s allies were sneaking in small audio recording devices, now they’re sneaking in entire television crews and equipment . And no one bats an eye.

The news that Diana has requested an urgent meeting with the Queen cuts the group's conversation. At last, the dramatic showdown teed up earlier in the episode. Diana arrives and tells the Queen she wanted her mother-in-law to hear it from her first — she has done a frank interview with the BBC that will be broadcast in a couple of weeks.
