Princess Diana’s fatal car crash is recreated in the very first scene of The Crown season six.

The harrowing incident is not shown on-screen, but a car - carrying Diana and Dodi Fayed - is seen speeding past a man walking his dog before entering the tunnel.

As the vehicle’s horn blares, he gets his phone out and calls the emergency services.

“I’m at Pont de l’Alma. There’s been a crash in the tunnel. I think it’s serious,” the man says.

The Crown’s opening credit sequence then rolls.
