The Crown Song Clip

Netflix has released the full scene from “Avalanche” (episode nine in season four of The Crown) that features Emmy nominee Emma Corrin as Princess Diana singing “All I Ask of You” from The Phantom of the Opera. The scene is based on a rumored event, when Diana supposedly recorded herself singing the show’s love ballad as a gift for Prince Charles on their seventh anniversary in July 1987, while in costume on stage at London’s Her Majesty’s Theatre, where the musical premiered in October 1986. Composer Andrew Lloyd Webber has denied the story, but the musical’s official Twitter seemed to confirm the event when “Avalanche” premiered last November. The episode, written by Peter Morgan and directed by Jessica Hobbs, also featured Corrin singing Billy Joel’s “Uptown Girl.”
