The events in the movie take place around Lady Diana's death (August 30th, 1997). While Tony Blair is being driven in his limousine, speaking on the cellphone, cars that can prominently be seen through the rear window are a Mercedes S Class type W220 (first released in 2000)and a 2nd generation Toyota RAV4 (released in 2001). Also, while reconstructing the events leading to Lady Diana's car crash, significant number of scooters papparazzi use in the chase are of more modern origin than 1997.
