In this special revisited episode, we go back to 1974, discussing the time a lone gunman attempted to kidnap 23-year-old Princess Anne (yes, we know she's one of your favourite characters on The Crown). While the media coverage of this story at the time emphasized the valour of the men who helped rescue Anne, the reality is that the princess played an instrumental role in saving herself. We chat about why it took Anne so long to share her truth. We also examine the details of this highly cinematic, but little discussed, story.
