Clocking in at a total runtime of four hours, the documentary collects every interview with late Princess, words from her loved ones and input from the world's leading experts on Diana.

'The Story of Diana' was not the only documentary to air for August, the month that marks her tragic death at age 36.

Diana: In Her Own Words aired

on August 6 to a rather mixed reception, with one of Diana's closest friends remarking that it betrayed the late Princess's privacy, while Daily Mail writer Jan Moir believed that Diana would have loved the documentary herself, according to the Independent.

The purpose of these documentaries are to help remind the world of who Diana was, honoring her kindness and beauty while helping to bring her back to life for a modern world from which she was sadly taken away far too soon.
