Nearly fell out of my chair when I saw this item show up on the BBC website, and other UK papers have followed suit. How the hell can this be, that a decade has now passed and the government is just getting around to revealing what it knows...can someone please explain this?

I've put out a request for photos of Diana memorabilia...and it is streaming in...watch the slide show for a remarkable experience.

The coroner in charge of the Princess Diana inquest has decided to hold a preliminary hearing in January in public, rather than in private.

Mohammed Al Fayed, who mounted a legal challenge for the hearing about Diana and his son Dodi to be held in public, said he welcomed the decision.

UK law states inquests must be held in public, but early hearings need not be.

Lady Butler-Sloss was said to have been persuaded to change her mind because of public interest in the case.

Harrods boss Mr Al Fayed said that although happy with the decision, he would not tolerate any more attempts to conceal the truth.
