From a king battling cancer to a princess undergoing preventive chemotherapy, and an heir navigating the delicate balance between privacy and duty, the royal family grappled with a range of struggles during this tumultuous period.

Kelly Wright, KI’s MD of Distribution, adds, “The recent challenges faced by Britain’s royal family have captivated audiences worldwide, eliciting a global outpouring of concern and empathy. With its insightful analysis and intimate perspectives, ITN Productions’ film presents a poignant portrayal of a monarchy confronting these challenges with resilience and grace."

Featuring insights from royal commentators and journalists, the film illuminates how, amidst speculation and conspiracy theories, certain segments of society have intensified the pressure on the Royals. With expert analysis and intimate perspectives, this documentary paints a vivid picture of a monarchy grappling with intense scrutiny and adversity.

Produced by the award-winning ITN Productions and commissioned for Channel 5 by Denise Seneviratne, "2024: 100 Days That Rocked the Royals" is directed by Myles Judd and executive produced by Daniel Smith.
