Unhappy Talking doll with Princess Diana's real voice

Quote:
A talking doll of the late DIANA, PRINCESS OF WALES is upsetting royal fans in Britain - because it features her real voice.

US toymakers TimeCapsule have manufactured 10,000 mini-Dianas, which speaks historic lines like "I'd like to be the queen of people's hearts" and "I don't sit here with resentment. I sit here with sadness".

British critics insist the doll is tasteless and disrespectful, insisting the stylish royal would never have worn the ill-fitting white suit and garish make-up that her doll likeness wears.

UK newspaper Daily Mirror has branded the doll "the most tasteless, tackiest-ever tribute to Diana", while Scotland's Daily Record newspaper labels it "tacky" and slams its "strangely disjointed ankles, garish make-up and unconvincing hair, it bears little resemblance to the late princess."
