The Crown: Princess Diana's revenge dress seen in the Netflix show is auctioned for £12,000 along with 500 of the show's props


Aside from the late Queen herself, her ladies-in-waiting and Michael Fagan, the intruder who broke into Buckingham Palace in 1982, very few can claim to have set foot in Her Majesty's bedroom.

Buyers can purchase the 'audience room bell', rung by the Queen to usher in waiting prime ministers (£200-£300), Her Majesty's mahogany writing desk, complete with photographs, trinkets and lamp (£3,000-£5,000), and a Filofax used by her dresser, Angela Kelly, played by Lizzie Hopley (£500-£800). Most intriguing of all, and strangely intimate to behold, is her dressing table, an Edwardian-style mahogany and mother-of-pearl dresser (£2,000-£3,000), which comes with an array of eerily accurate paraphernalia: her favourite lily of the valley perfume, Yves Saint Laurent foundation and a gold Cartier watch. Kate (played by newcomer Meg Bellamy) and William (Ed McVey) don't appear until season six of The Crown — and there's a crucial part of their royal romance up for grabs: the see-through dress from the charity fashion show at St Andrews University in March 2002.
