Diana's death fears
From Jennifer Miller Sir: Stephen Glover (Media studies, 25 October) might care to consider that for years rumour had it that the late Princess anticipated being sabotaged in the air: 'One day, I shall go up in a helicopter and I won't come down.' This was despite the patent absurdity of the idea, when she had deliberately chosen to travel by helicopter several times just before her death, even taking her sons with her, and it was inconceivable that she would have exposed them to such risk.
This new crystal-gazing, assassination by car crash, is hardly more down to earth. The Alma tunnel had already taken eight lives in 34 accidents before Diana's fatality and obviously there was no presentiment of danger when neither she nor two others in her party had taken the obvious precaution of wearing seatbelts.
