The one-hour special will cover the events of 30 years like the break-up of the marriage of Charles and Diana, and Diana's death in a car crash in Paris. "Charles and Di: Once upon a time" — the subsequent series will take a look at the romance and subsequent fairytale wedding of Prince Charles and Diana, while "Wild About Prince Harry" will take a closer look at Prince Harry's childhood and growing up years.
Other programmes will feature stories on royal wedding souvenir collectors, the various people who make the wedding happen and members close to the royal family.
