1
00:00:31,741 --> 00:00:33,868
Ask my daughters to come and see me.
2
00:00:34,452 --> 00:00:35,703
Yes, ma'am.
3
00:00:41,792 --> 00:00:43,002
Girls, it's too soon.
4
00:00:43,586 --> 00:00:44,795
I can't do it.
5
00:00:45,922 --> 00:00:46,964
I'm not strong enough.
6
00:00:47,089 --> 00:00:48,966
That's why you have
two grown-up daughters
7
00:00:49,133 --> 00:00:50,885
to step in for you in situations like this.
8
00:00:50,968 --> 00:00:52,511
I'll do it.
9
00:00:52,595 --> 00:00:55,139
Thank you, but that makes no sense.
10
00:00:57,725 --> 00:01:00,519
The speech is for papa about papa.
I would like to do it.
11
00:01:01,437 --> 00:01:02,939
It's right I do it.
12
00:01:03,105 --> 00:01:05,608
You don't enjoy public speaking,
whereas I do.
13
00:01:06,192 --> 00:01:08,694
- And I was papa...
- What?
14
00:01:09,654 --> 00:01:10,780
Favorite?
15
00:01:12,406 --> 00:01:16,077
- Well, are you going to deny it?
- Your father didn't have a favorite.
16
00:01:16,911 --> 00:01:18,120
He adored you both.
17
00:01:18,746 --> 00:01:20,164
Did so equally.
18
00:01:20,998 --> 00:01:22,917
As any good father would.
19
00:01:24,001 --> 00:01:27,088
Mummy, you decide, then,
as head of the family.
20
00:01:27,505 --> 00:01:29,423
But she's not head of the family.
21
00:01:30,549 --> 00:01:31,676
I am.
22
00:01:33,010 --> 00:01:34,303
And I will make the speech.
23
00:01:48,985 --> 00:01:50,278
- Ma'am.
- Thank you.
24
00:01:51,028 --> 00:01:52,363
Thank you.
25
00:01:57,952 --> 00:01:59,787
"Six years ago,
26
00:01:59,870 --> 00:02:03,582
"I heard the moving words
which my father spoke
27
00:02:03,708 --> 00:02:06,836
"when he unveiled the statue
of king George v.
28
00:02:07,795 --> 00:02:11,424
"I did not think then
that in so short a time
29
00:02:12,091 --> 00:02:14,552
"I should be called to take his place.
30
00:02:16,929 --> 00:02:22,226
"But it is with pride
that I unveil this noble statue today."
31
00:02:27,648 --> 00:02:29,066
Here you are, ma'am.
32
00:03:24,789 --> 00:03:26,040
Ma'am...
33
00:04:59,216 --> 00:05:01,677
We have been flagging our concern
for some time.
34
00:05:01,802 --> 00:05:06,599
These latest events, internationally,
merely strengthen our view.
35
00:05:07,475 --> 00:05:10,352
But sending the queen
on this forthcoming tour,
36
00:05:10,436 --> 00:05:11,937
in the current climate,
37
00:05:12,021 --> 00:05:15,983
would be to put the sovereign in
an unacceptable level of danger.
38
00:05:16,066 --> 00:05:19,570
What is it you would have the queen do?
Stay at home
39
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:24,658
in the wake of minor incidents
prosecuted by an insurgent rabble?
40
00:05:24,909 --> 00:05:30,164
What kind of signal would that send?
The crown does not back down.
41
00:05:30,956 --> 00:05:33,417
If britain had made a
habit of backing down,
42
00:05:33,542 --> 00:05:37,421
the world would already be
living under the yoke of fascist tyranny,
43
00:05:37,588 --> 00:05:39,256
and we wouldn't have an empire at all.
44
00:05:39,340 --> 00:05:43,552
Then might I suggest
we bypass Gibraltar altogether?
45
00:05:44,470 --> 00:05:46,889
It's an approach which I would favor, too.
46
00:05:47,264 --> 00:05:49,934
She's not ready for
something on this scale.
47
00:05:50,017 --> 00:05:51,393
She's not yet up to it.
48
00:05:51,685 --> 00:05:55,272
Especially with so many of our dominions
demanding independence.
49
00:05:56,690 --> 00:05:59,777
We must be considerate of her.
50
00:05:59,860 --> 00:06:02,696
- Patronize her.
- No, that's not what I'm saying, sir.
51
00:06:03,197 --> 00:06:04,198
Yes, it is.
52
00:06:07,576 --> 00:06:11,121
Bermuda, Jamaica, Australia,
ceylon, Uganda.
53
00:06:11,205 --> 00:06:13,374
It's going to be hot, your majesty.
54
00:06:13,541 --> 00:06:16,710
To that end, we've been working
a great deal with organza,
55
00:06:16,794 --> 00:06:19,213
crepe de chine and shantung silk.
56
00:06:19,797 --> 00:06:22,967
We also wanted to feature
something particular to each location,
57
00:06:23,259 --> 00:06:27,513
so we thought sprigs of native wildflowers
58
00:06:27,846 --> 00:06:30,391
indigenous to each country
that you're visiting.
59
00:06:30,599 --> 00:06:33,894
So, on her majesty's arrival in Sydney,
60
00:06:33,978 --> 00:06:38,274
we propose a white organza dress
scattered with pale yellow wattle blossom.
61
00:06:39,441 --> 00:06:40,943
How many dresses are there?
62
00:06:41,026 --> 00:06:43,654
- One hundred.
- One hundred.
63
00:06:44,572 --> 00:06:46,115
- And hats?
- Thirty-six.
64
00:06:46,198 --> 00:06:47,950
- Pairs of shoes?
- Fifty.
65
00:06:49,994 --> 00:06:53,372
Isn't this all a bit much?
Couldn't we try to economize?
66
00:06:53,581 --> 00:06:57,167
It is. It was a directive
from the government itself,
67
00:06:57,293 --> 00:06:59,169
from the very top of the government.
68
00:06:59,962 --> 00:07:02,715
To put our best foot fonnard
for Great Britain.
69
00:07:02,881 --> 00:07:04,425
Our very best foot.
70
00:07:11,682 --> 00:07:14,435
It is an absurd pantomime, the whole thing.
71
00:07:14,518 --> 00:07:16,395
I don't know why anyone
can't see beyond it.
72
00:07:16,562 --> 00:07:19,541
I don't know. Actually, I thought
the odd ostrich feathers rather suited you.
73
00:07:19,565 --> 00:07:22,318
- You should wear those more often.
- Up straight, please.
74
00:07:22,860 --> 00:07:25,446
Twenty years ago,
britain had influence and control
75
00:07:25,529 --> 00:07:27,169
over one-fifth of the world's population.
76
00:07:27,239 --> 00:07:29,199
You look where we are now in India,
77
00:07:29,867 --> 00:07:32,328
Pakistan, South Africa,
78
00:07:32,995 --> 00:07:35,623
Iraq, Jordan, Burma, ceylon.
79
00:07:36,290 --> 00:07:37,875
All independent.
80
00:07:38,876 --> 00:07:41,545
But nobody wants to face it
or deal with it,
81
00:07:42,379 --> 00:07:45,215
so they send us out
on the commonwealth roadshow.
82
00:07:46,008 --> 00:07:49,053
Like giving a lick of paint
to a rusty old banger
83
00:07:49,136 --> 00:07:53,223
to make everyone think it's all still fine,
but it's not.
84
00:07:54,099 --> 00:07:56,977
The rust has eaten away
at the engine and the structure.
85
00:07:58,228 --> 00:08:00,481
The banger is falling apart.
86
00:08:01,940 --> 00:08:03,776
But no one wants to see it.
87
00:08:05,235 --> 00:08:07,112
That's ourjob, that's who we are.
88
00:08:08,322 --> 00:08:09,990
A coat of paint.
89
00:08:12,117 --> 00:08:14,662
If the costumes are grand enough,
90
00:08:15,412 --> 00:08:17,206
if the tiara's sparkly enough,
91
00:08:17,289 --> 00:08:20,876
if the titles are preposterous enough,
92
00:08:20,959 --> 00:08:24,421
the mythology incomprehensible enough,
then all must still be fine.
93
00:08:24,546 --> 00:08:26,590
- Are we nearly finished yet?
- Not quite, sir.
94
00:08:26,674 --> 00:08:29,134
Four hours we've been here already
for a costume fitting.
95
00:08:29,301 --> 00:08:32,304
Uniform, sir, not costume.
96
00:08:32,429 --> 00:08:36,600
You wear uniforms to battle.
This is a costume fitting.
97
00:08:41,605 --> 00:08:43,440
It's just a formality, your majesty,
98
00:08:43,524 --> 00:08:46,860
confirming your temporary assumption
of duties as counselor of state
99
00:08:46,944 --> 00:08:49,405
while her majesty is abroad.
100
00:08:49,571 --> 00:08:52,574
You are so kind to still look after me
from your retirement.
101
00:08:54,118 --> 00:08:56,286
How much is still in the diary?
102
00:08:58,038 --> 00:09:00,874
Well, iwent through it with major adeane,
103
00:09:00,958 --> 00:09:03,419
and we tried to throw out
as much as we could,
104
00:09:03,585 --> 00:09:06,463
but there will still be the usual
privy council meetings of course,
105
00:09:06,797 --> 00:09:10,008
some investitures and military inspections.
106
00:09:10,175 --> 00:09:12,136
Couldn't we give some of it
to Princess Margaret?
107
00:09:12,886 --> 00:09:15,556
I'm just thinking
she's had a tough time of it lately.
108
00:09:15,723 --> 00:09:18,308
Being allowed to shine a bit
might be good for her.
109
00:09:19,852 --> 00:09:21,478
Get her back on track.
110
00:09:27,067 --> 00:09:30,195
Besides, I had rather hoped
to disappear up to Scotland for a while.
111
00:09:30,946 --> 00:09:33,365
And Margaret could deputize for me.
112
00:09:37,286 --> 00:09:39,997
The office is tucked away
in a remote part of the embassy
113
00:09:40,205 --> 00:09:42,332
where no one will see me,
no one will find me.
114
00:09:42,583 --> 00:09:45,461
- What do you do all day?
- Nothing!
115
00:09:45,544 --> 00:09:47,624
They can't keep you there
and give you nothing to do.
116
00:09:47,838 --> 00:09:50,215
I beg to differ. Nothing is all I do.
117
00:09:50,841 --> 00:09:53,886
Are you at least alone in the office?
118
00:09:54,178 --> 00:09:57,264
No, sergeant Hewitt is here.
He's just walked in.
119
00:09:58,348 --> 00:10:00,100
- Can he hear you?
- Yes.
120
00:10:01,351 --> 00:10:03,353
- Does he watch you?
- Yes.
121
00:10:04,271 --> 00:10:07,441
- Is that the point of sergeant Hewitt?
- It is the only point.
122
00:10:08,734 --> 00:10:10,277
How awful.
123
00:10:13,155 --> 00:10:14,198
Well, it's not forever.
124
00:10:15,324 --> 00:10:17,034
Feels like it though.
125
00:10:17,785 --> 00:10:19,036
Two years.
126
00:10:25,167 --> 00:10:28,378
Without you to protect me, guide me...
127
00:10:31,381 --> 00:10:35,803
You know, I feel quite
unanchored without you.
128
00:10:37,137 --> 00:10:39,890
Yes, but it's what we agreed to do,
to help your sister.
129
00:10:44,186 --> 00:10:45,646
Then we shall be free.
130
00:10:59,284 --> 00:11:01,620
Well, that's it. That's me off.
131
00:11:02,079 --> 00:11:05,332
See you when you're
back from the tour in...
132
00:11:05,499 --> 00:11:06,500
Twenty-three weeks.
133
00:11:09,378 --> 00:11:12,798
- Well, call me if you need anything.
- Yes.
134
00:11:13,090 --> 00:11:14,842
You won't, of course.
135
00:11:16,593 --> 00:11:18,874
- You don't need me anymore at all.
- Yes, of course I do.
136
00:11:18,929 --> 00:11:21,056
No, you don't. Neither of you does.
137
00:11:21,932 --> 00:11:23,308
I have two grown-up daughters
138
00:11:23,392 --> 00:11:25,686
quite capable
of looking after themselves now.
139
00:11:27,396 --> 00:11:29,940
Who is it that you're staying with?
140
00:11:30,023 --> 00:11:32,985
The vyners.
Up in caithness at the northern gate.
141
00:11:34,027 --> 00:11:35,445
Dunnett head.
142
00:11:35,529 --> 00:11:37,281
Goodness. That's the end of the earth.
143
00:11:37,406 --> 00:11:40,909
Yes. A chance to really
get away from it all.
144
00:11:42,703 --> 00:11:43,912
Have a good think.
145
00:11:44,830 --> 00:11:46,206
About what?
146
00:11:48,876 --> 00:11:50,127
Everything.
147
00:11:51,461 --> 00:11:54,256
Well, don't think too much or too deeply.
148
00:11:54,423 --> 00:11:55,841
Just gets one in a muddle.
149
00:11:58,135 --> 00:11:59,655
By the way, I've arranged for Margaret
150
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,890
to deputize for me, while I'm gone,
as head of state.
151
00:12:04,725 --> 00:12:06,310
Well, someone needs to do it.
152
00:12:06,476 --> 00:12:07,912
Can't have people
turning up for knighthoods
153
00:12:07,936 --> 00:12:09,813
and some civil servant handing them out.
154
00:12:09,938 --> 00:12:12,065
- Well, if you think she's up to it.
- Up to what?
155
00:12:12,149 --> 00:12:15,269
Standing still, looking pretty and putting
a sword on a few people's shoulders?
156
00:12:15,319 --> 00:12:18,405
- And presumably making speeches?
- Which will be written for her.
157
00:12:18,780 --> 00:12:20,115
And turning up on time.
158
00:12:20,198 --> 00:12:22,677
I believe there are people
who will get her where she needs to be.
159
00:12:22,701 --> 00:12:24,494
And behaving herself.
160
00:12:26,121 --> 00:12:27,581
She will be fine.
161
00:12:28,373 --> 00:12:31,293
And you, if you'll allow me
for just one moment?
162
00:12:31,376 --> 00:12:34,254
- Please.
- You need to give Margaret some room.
163
00:12:34,922 --> 00:12:38,050
Some space in which to shine.
She needs to shine, that one.
164
00:12:39,927 --> 00:12:41,511
And, as elder sister,
165
00:12:41,970 --> 00:12:44,890
you ought to be confident
and generous enough to respect that.
166
00:12:45,515 --> 00:12:46,600
I am.
167
00:12:48,518 --> 00:12:49,728
Are you?
168
00:13:11,083 --> 00:13:12,417
On your knees.
169
00:13:12,709 --> 00:13:14,920
- Is that absolutely necessary?
- Of course!
170
00:13:15,003 --> 00:13:17,381
I want to be sure I know what I'm doing
before you go.
171
00:13:19,049 --> 00:13:20,300
All right.
172
00:13:22,427 --> 00:13:23,845
I hope you have a steady hand.
173
00:13:24,221 --> 00:13:26,723
You seem uncharacteristicallyjumpy.
174
00:13:27,182 --> 00:13:28,558
Guilty conscience, perhaps?
175
00:13:30,602 --> 00:13:33,563
- Why should I have a guilty conscience?
- Have a think.
176
00:13:35,232 --> 00:13:36,858
If you mean Peter and his posting...
177
00:13:36,942 --> 00:13:38,235
Banishment.
178
00:13:38,318 --> 00:13:39,444
That wasn't my doing.
179
00:13:39,528 --> 00:13:41,405
I was simply acting
on the government's advice.
180
00:13:41,488 --> 00:13:43,216
The idea came from your henchman,
Tommy lascelles.
181
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,325
- Now, that's a little firm.
- Was it?
182
00:13:45,450 --> 00:13:47,536
Yes. And it's the flat edge, remember?
183
00:13:48,662 --> 00:13:49,705
Sorry.
184
00:13:50,330 --> 00:13:53,750
- So, how is he?
- Peter? He's getting on with it.
185
00:13:54,918 --> 00:13:56,628
Uncomplainingly.
186
00:13:56,712 --> 00:13:58,505
Because that's what strong men do.
187
00:14:00,132 --> 00:14:02,175
But it's a lonely existence in Brussels.
188
00:14:02,551 --> 00:14:06,388
No real job, stuck in a small flat,
followed by photographers,
189
00:14:06,471 --> 00:14:10,350
and to steer clear of all the parties,
steer clear of all the traps.
190
00:14:10,434 --> 00:14:12,936
- What traps?
- The traps being set for him.
191
00:14:13,562 --> 00:14:15,689
Those who would wish to lead him astray.
192
00:14:16,606 --> 00:14:18,275
Catch him in a compromising position.
193
00:14:18,984 --> 00:14:21,170
Those who would cheer
the dissolution of our friendship.
194
00:14:21,194 --> 00:14:23,697
- Margaret, you're imagining things.
- Am I?
195
00:14:24,448 --> 00:14:27,284
Yes. And anyway, it's not for much longer.
196
00:14:27,409 --> 00:14:28,452
Two years?
197
00:14:29,202 --> 00:14:30,888
Yes, but the first three or four months
will fly by
198
00:14:30,912 --> 00:14:33,540
while you're kindly filling in for me.
199
00:14:33,623 --> 00:14:36,376
- I'll try not to upstage you.
- How kind.
200
00:14:36,460 --> 00:14:38,795
I can't promise
I won't bring my own character to it.
201
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:40,505
Well, I never expected anything less.
202
00:14:40,797 --> 00:14:42,717
That's the advantage
having a character to bring.
203
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:47,387
Too much character, an excess of character.
204
00:14:48,263 --> 00:14:51,850
Now, look at me and tell me you didn't
say that without a little bit of envy.
205
00:14:53,810 --> 00:14:56,855
Just remember
who you're standing in for when I'm gone.
206
00:14:56,938 --> 00:14:58,732
My characterless sister.
207
00:14:59,983 --> 00:15:01,276
Your queen.
208
00:15:01,818 --> 00:15:02,861
Not a showgirl.
209
00:15:19,961 --> 00:15:24,508
Introduced to the people of Bermuda
for the very first time.
210
00:15:24,591 --> 00:15:26,551
The royal couple then fly to Jamaica.
211
00:15:26,843 --> 00:15:30,013
An enormous crowd gathered here
on a particularly lovely night.
212
00:15:56,915 --> 00:15:59,626
The last time you departed on this tour,
213
00:16:00,043 --> 00:16:03,713
it was cruelly cut short
by the death of your dear father.
214
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,968
In his final months,
the king told me many times
215
00:16:08,051 --> 00:16:11,513
that he could feel it all slipping away.
216
00:16:11,596 --> 00:16:14,933
The empire, our place in the world.
217
00:16:15,809 --> 00:16:20,272
He saw this tour as a chance
to keep each dominion close,
218
00:16:20,397 --> 00:16:22,566
preserving that empire.
219
00:16:23,567 --> 00:16:26,611
So, take him with you in spirit. Let his...
220
00:16:29,573 --> 00:16:34,327
Let his example guide you,
his thoughts influence you.
221
00:16:35,954 --> 00:16:38,957
- I will.
- And if I may...
222
00:16:40,792 --> 00:16:45,130
Never let them see
the real Elizabeth windsor.
223
00:16:47,007 --> 00:16:49,968
The cameras, the television.
224
00:16:50,051 --> 00:16:56,266
Never let them see
that carrying the crown is often a burden.
225
00:16:57,767 --> 00:16:59,352
Let them look at you,
226
00:17:00,312 --> 00:17:04,274
but let them see only the eternal.
227
00:17:10,113 --> 00:17:11,615
Thank you, Winston.
228
00:17:12,115 --> 00:17:13,700
Your majesty.
229
00:18:18,348 --> 00:18:20,850
Well done! You made it!
230
00:18:21,226 --> 00:18:24,229
If it was easy to come
here, everybody would.
231
00:18:24,479 --> 00:18:26,731
Thank god it isn't, and they don't.
232
00:18:27,732 --> 00:18:29,859
- Will you want a rest?
- Certainly not.
233
00:18:30,026 --> 00:18:33,571
I've been sitting for hours.
I want a nice, long walk.
234
00:18:34,447 --> 00:18:36,032
Or, better still, a ride.
235
00:18:51,172 --> 00:18:53,174
Go on. Go get him.
236
00:19:11,568 --> 00:19:14,696
Scotland, the beauty.
237
00:19:15,238 --> 00:19:17,878
I'd almost forgotten what it feels like
to have the spirits lifted.
238
00:19:18,575 --> 00:19:21,661
Well, you're welcome to stay any time
to get away from it all.
239
00:19:21,745 --> 00:19:24,956
You'd soon grow sick of me.
You know what they say, guests and fish.
240
00:19:28,251 --> 00:19:29,753
Or you could become a neighbor.
241
00:19:30,170 --> 00:19:31,850
There's a castle along the coast for sale.
242
00:19:32,922 --> 00:19:35,842
They're threatening to tear it down.
The owner can't afford to keep it up.
243
00:19:35,884 --> 00:19:39,095
Chap called imbert-Terry. Strange fellow.
244
00:19:39,512 --> 00:19:41,181
Rumor is that, on occasion,
245
00:19:41,264 --> 00:19:44,934
he sings to the seals
that swim past the castle.
246
00:19:47,270 --> 00:19:48,688
How queer.
247
00:19:52,150 --> 00:19:53,526
Has it been very difficult?
248
00:19:58,656 --> 00:19:59,866
It has.
249
00:20:01,368 --> 00:20:03,078
I don't want to sound self-piteous,
250
00:20:03,787 --> 00:20:06,289
but loss has followed loss.
251
00:20:06,456 --> 00:20:08,792
First and foremost, the loss of a husband.
252
00:20:10,001 --> 00:20:11,503
Then the loss of a home,
253
00:20:12,712 --> 00:20:14,547
having to leave the palace.
254
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,844
The loss of motherhood
as daughters become adults.
255
00:20:21,888 --> 00:20:24,516
Loss of a routine, a sense of purpose.
256
00:20:25,266 --> 00:20:26,768
The loss of the crown.
257
00:20:28,478 --> 00:20:33,691
Imagine 17 years' experience as queen,
of being the head of the family.
258
00:20:34,317 --> 00:20:38,738
Bertie was a wonderful husband and father,
but he needed a great deal of help as king.
259
00:20:39,114 --> 00:20:40,949
And then we lose him,
260
00:20:41,783 --> 00:20:44,702
and at precisely the moment
when they should be giving me more to do,
261
00:20:45,161 --> 00:20:48,289
stop me falling into despair,
they take it all away.
262
00:20:53,294 --> 00:20:55,004
They take it all away.
263
00:20:58,716 --> 00:21:03,513
They put it all into the hands of a girl
who's totally unequipped for it.
264
00:21:11,688 --> 00:21:14,357
I'm so sorry. So sorry.
265
00:21:16,401 --> 00:21:20,280
"Bermuda will always have
a distinguished position
266
00:21:20,363 --> 00:21:22,490
"within the British commonwealth.
267
00:21:22,574 --> 00:21:26,578
"A position which will, I trust,
remain unshaken
268
00:21:26,661 --> 00:21:29,831
"by the storms
through which the world is passing.
269
00:21:30,665 --> 00:21:36,421
"My husband and I have been deeply touched
by the welcome we have received here.
270
00:21:37,046 --> 00:21:40,675
"Bermuda holds and will always hold
271
00:21:40,758 --> 00:21:43,219
"a warm place in our hearts."
272
00:21:44,345 --> 00:21:45,555
May god bless you all.
273
00:21:54,397 --> 00:21:55,857
I thought that went well, ma 'am.
274
00:21:56,316 --> 00:21:58,693
Message delivered loud and clear, I'd say.
275
00:21:59,277 --> 00:22:02,238
"Stay loyal or die." Is that it now?
Can we knock off?
276
00:22:02,405 --> 00:22:03,823
I'm afraid not, sir.
277
00:22:03,907 --> 00:22:05,825
Without wishing to rush you, ma'am,
278
00:22:05,909 --> 00:22:07,869
we do need to move on
as quickly as possible.
279
00:22:08,077 --> 00:22:09,412
Yes, of course.
280
00:22:13,625 --> 00:22:14,792
Your majesty?
281
00:22:14,876 --> 00:22:16,770
So sorry, ma'am,
I really can't manage any faster.
282
00:22:16,794 --> 00:22:18,554
- Please don't worry.
- Ready for you, ma'am.
283
00:22:18,630 --> 00:22:20,089
Give her a chance!
284
00:22:21,382 --> 00:22:24,636
I'm in the Navy again.
Eight minutes. Not nine, not seven.
285
00:22:25,678 --> 00:22:28,198
It's from there to the next location,
where you'll make a speech
286
00:22:28,223 --> 00:22:29,863
to ex-servicemen at the royal yacht club,
287
00:22:29,933 --> 00:22:33,937
then by ferry to visit a school near
mangrove bay on the west of the island.
288
00:22:34,103 --> 00:22:36,457
Then you will host a garden party here
at the governor's house...
289
00:22:36,481 --> 00:22:37,649
Right.
290
00:22:37,774 --> 00:22:38,900
For 1,000 or so guests,
291
00:22:38,983 --> 00:22:42,362
where we're hoping to find a moment
for the ceremonial planting of a tree.
292
00:22:42,445 --> 00:22:45,532
Will we find a moment
during any of this to use the lavatory?
293
00:22:45,615 --> 00:22:47,784
I do hope tomorrow's better.
294
00:22:47,867 --> 00:22:49,577
I'm afraid not, sir.
295
00:22:49,661 --> 00:22:52,288
Up at 4:30 for a 6:00
am. Flight to Jamaica.
296
00:22:55,375 --> 00:22:58,545
Here we go again, waving like lunatics.
297
00:22:59,629 --> 00:23:00,755
Oh, god.
298
00:23:00,838 --> 00:23:03,174
With any luck, one day,
they'll all own television sets,
299
00:23:03,258 --> 00:23:05,343
and they won't come out like this again.
300
00:23:05,510 --> 00:23:07,971
Ma'am, sir, just before we take off,
301
00:23:08,054 --> 00:23:11,516
I thought I might go through the itinerary
for our first day in Jamaica.
302
00:23:11,599 --> 00:23:13,935
- Goody.
- Yes. Do sit down, Michael.
303
00:23:14,018 --> 00:23:15,144
Thank you.
304
00:23:15,228 --> 00:23:16,271
We arrive at noon
305
00:23:16,354 --> 00:23:18,606
to be greeted
by the governor and representatives
306
00:23:18,690 --> 00:23:20,066
of the west Indian islands.
307
00:23:20,149 --> 00:23:23,736
A guard of honor will be formed
by the Jamaican constabulary...
308
00:23:28,658 --> 00:23:31,995
This is the picture
we shall never forget in Jamaica.
309
00:23:33,371 --> 00:23:38,209
The lovely lady and the tall,
handsome figure of the sailor, her husband.
310
00:23:39,335 --> 00:23:43,214
So near to all the children
that they can almost be touched.
311
00:23:44,257 --> 00:23:46,175
So graceful and so near...
312
00:23:46,259 --> 00:23:48,678
Colonel charteris thought
you might like to see the speech
313
00:23:48,761 --> 00:23:50,471
for tomorrow night, ma'am.
314
00:23:50,555 --> 00:23:53,391
- Give you a chance to prepare.
- Thank you.
315
00:24:01,232 --> 00:24:02,692
Oh, dear.
316
00:24:03,860 --> 00:24:07,280
- Would you bring me a pencil, please?
- Ma'am?
317
00:24:07,363 --> 00:24:11,200
And ask colonel charteris if he'd be so
kind as to come and see me in the morning.
318
00:24:18,374 --> 00:24:20,126
From all over the west indies,
319
00:24:20,209 --> 00:24:22,587
people have come here today
for this ceremony,
320
00:24:23,421 --> 00:24:25,089
expressing their loyalty to her.
321
00:24:35,558 --> 00:24:37,185
- Good morning, sir.
- Good morning.
322
00:25:01,125 --> 00:25:03,127
- Come in, Martin.
- Your royal highness.
323
00:25:04,837 --> 00:25:07,131
The speech for
the ambassadors' reception tonight.
324
00:25:07,256 --> 00:25:08,841
Yes, ma'am?
325
00:25:08,925 --> 00:25:11,761
This was written for my sister.
Very well written.
326
00:25:11,844 --> 00:25:14,055
- Thank you.
- Manifestly for her.
327
00:25:14,138 --> 00:25:18,267
In her register, reflecting her character,
if that's the right word.
328
00:25:18,893 --> 00:25:21,437
As we both know,
I have a different character.
329
00:25:21,521 --> 00:25:22,563
Indeed.
330
00:25:22,647 --> 00:25:25,692
And since I shall be deputizing
for my sister tonight,
331
00:25:25,775 --> 00:25:30,613
I was wondering if I might make
one or two minor adjustments to the text?
332
00:25:30,697 --> 00:25:33,533
- Ma'am?
- Give it a bit more color.
333
00:25:33,616 --> 00:25:38,037
Make it feel a bit more like me
and breathe a little life into it.
334
00:25:38,287 --> 00:25:40,007
I'm sure her royal highness appreciates it.
335
00:25:42,917 --> 00:25:47,505
There'll be important people
at the reception tonight.
336
00:25:48,589 --> 00:25:51,300
Different backgrounds,
different sensibilities.
337
00:25:51,509 --> 00:25:56,597
The speech has been carefully calibrated
to avoid giving offense.
338
00:25:56,931 --> 00:25:59,142
And I'd suggest to avoid entertaining, too.
339
00:25:59,267 --> 00:26:02,145
It's not the sovereign's
place to entertain.
340
00:26:03,271 --> 00:26:05,982
- And I'm not the sovereign.
- I understand that,
341
00:26:06,858 --> 00:26:08,443
but you will be there in her place.
342
00:26:20,163 --> 00:26:24,041
What about the state diadem tiara?
Or the Cambridge lover's knot?
343
00:26:24,333 --> 00:26:27,003
Those are her majesty's
and for state occasions.
344
00:26:27,420 --> 00:26:29,046
Her majesty won't mind.
345
00:26:29,756 --> 00:26:33,301
Besides, are people not coming tonight
expecting to meet a queen?
346
00:26:34,010 --> 00:26:36,596
- Yes.
- Shouldn't we be giving them one?
347
00:27:11,714 --> 00:27:13,508
Your excellencies,
348
00:27:14,884 --> 00:27:18,888
I am delighted to be here tonight,
deputizing for my sister, the queen,
349
00:27:19,430 --> 00:27:21,682
who is fortunate enough
to be on her travels,
350
00:27:22,099 --> 00:27:25,436
somewhere between Bermuda,
Jamaica and Fiji.
351
00:27:26,354 --> 00:27:28,439
Distracted, no doubt,
352
00:27:29,607 --> 00:27:33,444
by waving fields of sugar cane
and graceful palms,
353
00:27:34,779 --> 00:27:38,282
by deep blue water
beyond white coral sands,
354
00:27:38,908 --> 00:27:42,870
by dramatic green hills,
thick with vegetation,
355
00:27:43,329 --> 00:27:46,123
and the subtle rhythms
of dancing and singing.
356
00:27:47,750 --> 00:27:51,754
But more vivid, more brilliant even,
357
00:27:51,838 --> 00:27:56,217
than the colors of those lovely islands
or the echoes of that music
358
00:27:56,300 --> 00:27:59,387
or the welcome
of cheerful and friendly people,
359
00:27:59,470 --> 00:28:01,597
wherever my sister may travel,
360
00:28:01,806 --> 00:28:05,059
is what I see as I look out
from this stage tonight.
361
00:28:07,770 --> 00:28:10,273
As I look out at all of you tonight,
362
00:28:10,606 --> 00:28:13,609
my, don't you all look wonderful.
363
00:28:14,819 --> 00:28:16,279
And shimmering.
364
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:18,906
And positively exotic.
365
00:28:20,408 --> 00:28:23,494
And what fine company
we have here tonight!
366
00:28:23,744 --> 00:28:26,122
Our ambassador
to the United States of America,
367
00:28:26,205 --> 00:28:27,748
sir Roger makins.
368
00:28:27,832 --> 00:28:29,834
The only honest thing
to come out of Washington.
369
00:28:32,795 --> 00:28:37,049
Our dashing ambassador
Alec kirkbride in Libya.
370
00:28:37,508 --> 00:28:39,552
This one's single, ladies.
371
00:28:41,429 --> 00:28:43,615
And of course sir Charles peake
and his wife from Greece.
372
00:28:43,639 --> 00:28:45,975
A country
which has brought us many things.
373
00:28:46,392 --> 00:28:49,103
Philosophy, democracy,
374
00:28:49,186 --> 00:28:50,646
my brother-in-law.
375
00:28:55,610 --> 00:28:58,321
So, to all of you I say welcome!
376
00:28:58,905 --> 00:29:03,242
As a rule, the food here is pretty
ordinary, the wine is usually rather good.
377
00:29:03,492 --> 00:29:06,329
And I have made sure there is plenty of it.
378
00:29:07,788 --> 00:29:11,459
So, I have no doubt
we will have a wonderful evening.
379
00:29:13,210 --> 00:29:14,545
Thank you.
380
00:29:26,599 --> 00:29:28,476
It felt so good.
381
00:29:28,559 --> 00:29:31,729
My sister talks all the time
of how she isn't suited to it, well,
382
00:29:32,521 --> 00:29:34,607
- I was born for it.
- I know.
383
00:29:35,608 --> 00:29:37,026
Aftennards, I told them
384
00:29:37,109 --> 00:29:39,838
to put as many engagements in the diary
as they like for the next few months.
385
00:29:39,862 --> 00:29:42,114
Investitures, the royal ballet,
the debutantes ball.
386
00:29:42,198 --> 00:29:43,366
Well, why not?
387
00:29:43,532 --> 00:29:45,785
Couldn't you come watch me in action?
388
00:29:46,202 --> 00:29:47,286
Just once.
389
00:29:47,370 --> 00:29:49,181
If I thought it were without risk,
I would in a flash,
390
00:29:49,205 --> 00:29:50,915
but if the papers get hold of it...
391
00:29:51,165 --> 00:29:53,042
Darling, papers love us.
392
00:29:53,209 --> 00:29:54,502
The people are for us.
393
00:29:55,795 --> 00:29:57,797
In their eyes, we can do no wrong.
394
00:30:02,051 --> 00:30:04,971
There will be no sleeping, sir,
there's a civic hall to visit.
395
00:30:05,054 --> 00:30:08,975
Not to mention the ribbons to be out
and the lunches to be consumed.
396
00:30:10,059 --> 00:30:13,229
- Ready?
- No. Almost. You go ahead.
397
00:30:17,650 --> 00:30:20,730
Just give me a moment, please, gents.
I'll be right with you. Okay? Thank you.
398
00:30:20,861 --> 00:30:23,447
Right.
399
00:30:27,451 --> 00:30:29,036
What's the matter?
400
00:30:32,581 --> 00:30:35,626
There was an ambassadors' reception
in London last week.
401
00:30:35,710 --> 00:30:38,295
Apparently, Margaret was
dazzling and brilliant.
402
00:30:39,130 --> 00:30:41,090
Would you have preferred
she make a mess of it?
403
00:30:45,803 --> 00:30:47,054
Perhaps.
404
00:30:48,097 --> 00:30:49,974
- Is that awful of me?
- Yes.
405
00:30:50,141 --> 00:30:52,393
Well, now you know,
you didn't marry a Saint.
406
00:30:52,476 --> 00:30:55,354
I knew that. But I wouldn't
worry, I have great faith in her.
407
00:30:55,521 --> 00:30:57,982
- In Margaret?
- In her ability to mess things up.
408
00:30:58,232 --> 00:31:01,360
- In the long run.
- Or outshine me.
409
00:31:01,444 --> 00:31:03,779
- And mess things up.
- And outshine me.
410
00:31:14,123 --> 00:31:15,791
That's unlike you.
411
00:31:17,460 --> 00:31:18,794
I'm sorry.
412
00:31:24,717 --> 00:31:27,136
You know, there is a danger
we might be overdoing it.
413
00:31:27,344 --> 00:31:31,140
Perhaps it would be prudent
414
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:33,225
to take a few things out.
415
00:31:33,976 --> 00:31:37,730
I mean, 57 Australian towns in 58 days.
416
00:31:38,647 --> 00:31:40,983
Maybe we don't visit all of them.
417
00:31:50,993 --> 00:31:52,578
We keep every appointment.
418
00:31:54,538 --> 00:31:57,166
No cancellations. Not one.
419
00:32:01,587 --> 00:32:04,298
I'm afraid the day does hold
some challenges, ma'am.
420
00:32:04,381 --> 00:32:07,802
The route's 10 miles,
and the streets are already packed.
421
00:32:07,885 --> 00:32:10,262
- Well, how long will it take?
- I've allowed two hours.
422
00:32:10,429 --> 00:32:12,973
Two hours? In 100-degree heat?
423
00:32:13,099 --> 00:32:16,227
I could ask them to increase
the planned driving speed a little.
424
00:32:16,435 --> 00:32:20,022
- But I think the horses might struggle.
- No, we'll be fine. Thank you.
425
00:33:15,035 --> 00:33:17,580
Here she is at last, amongst us.
426
00:33:18,998 --> 00:33:22,293
Charming our people in city after city.
427
00:33:23,961 --> 00:33:26,046
Afternoon in Sydney first.
428
00:33:26,922 --> 00:33:29,008
Then, good-hearted Adelaide.
429
00:33:31,302 --> 00:33:33,345
On to venerable Hobart,
430
00:33:33,429 --> 00:33:36,056
nestling at the cool
feet of mount Wellington.
431
00:33:40,519 --> 00:33:42,730
That's it. The castle of mey.
432
00:33:44,398 --> 00:33:46,108
Isn't she bonny?
433
00:33:49,195 --> 00:33:50,279
Yes.
434
00:33:54,116 --> 00:33:55,701
And what a view.
435
00:34:26,065 --> 00:34:27,691
Captain imbert-Terry.
436
00:34:28,317 --> 00:34:29,610
Commander vyner.
437
00:34:30,653 --> 00:34:32,738
Lady Doris, and...
438
00:34:35,616 --> 00:34:36,742
We've met.
439
00:34:38,535 --> 00:34:41,121
- I don't think so.
- Yes, yes.
440
00:34:41,205 --> 00:34:46,085
Yes. Your face, it's very familiar.
441
00:34:46,835 --> 00:34:48,712
Don't say a thing, it'll come to me.
442
00:34:49,004 --> 00:34:52,591
- May we come in?
- Yes, yes.
443
00:34:56,387 --> 00:34:59,098
Well, if you were to be interested
in the property,
444
00:34:59,431 --> 00:35:01,267
I'm going to be entirely honest.
445
00:35:02,768 --> 00:35:07,564
The roof does need a bit of work.
446
00:35:08,190 --> 00:35:10,484
One or two windows might need replacing,
447
00:35:10,567 --> 00:35:14,780
and the electricity does
need, well, installing.
448
00:35:15,114 --> 00:35:18,784
And there's no dining room to speak of,
nor bathrooms.
449
00:35:18,867 --> 00:35:22,997
And I've sold off
most of the good shooting and fishing.
450
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,124
Oh, dear. You're really not a salesman.
451
00:35:25,207 --> 00:35:29,461
In fact, the place is in such a state,
I'd sooner make a gift of it.
452
00:35:30,504 --> 00:35:33,090
I'm afraid I'd be quite unable to accept.
453
00:35:33,173 --> 00:35:34,383
Why not?
454
00:35:35,175 --> 00:35:38,012
It'd be frowned upon.
Something to do with who I am.
455
00:35:39,388 --> 00:35:43,225
You're an actress. A famous film star.
456
00:35:44,143 --> 00:35:45,894
- No.
- A singer, then.
457
00:35:47,980 --> 00:35:50,357
It's on the tip of my tongue.
458
00:35:54,945 --> 00:35:56,572
It dates back
459
00:35:56,780 --> 00:35:59,867
to the mid-17th century.
460
00:36:00,075 --> 00:36:04,371
It was in the same
family for 14 generations.
461
00:36:04,705 --> 00:36:07,166
We bought the place in 1929,
462
00:36:07,249 --> 00:36:09,626
and my wife and I
had 11 very happy years here.
463
00:36:09,710 --> 00:36:12,504
But then war came and the place...
464
00:36:17,092 --> 00:36:19,595
The solution is obvious.
465
00:36:20,304 --> 00:36:22,639
- Stop smiling.
- No.
466
00:36:22,723 --> 00:36:25,642
The trouble is I have the sort of face
that, if I'm not smiling,
467
00:36:25,726 --> 00:36:27,686
then everyone says, "isn't she cross?"
468
00:36:27,853 --> 00:36:31,774
No, that's not...
Look, what do you think, doctor?
469
00:36:32,232 --> 00:36:35,527
It's a spasm. The muscles are ovennorked.
470
00:36:35,861 --> 00:36:37,112
Rest ought to fix it, though.
471
00:36:37,446 --> 00:36:39,740
- Like I said. Stop smiling.
- No.
472
00:36:40,366 --> 00:36:43,369
I have an engagement this evening.
So, what can be done?
473
00:36:43,911 --> 00:36:48,123
Well, I could inject
the affected area with a relaxant.
474
00:36:48,499 --> 00:36:50,459
You'd have to watch yourself
with soup, though.
475
00:36:51,043 --> 00:36:54,046
You might find you have less control
chewing and drinking.
476
00:36:54,254 --> 00:36:56,215
And it's not a long-term solution.
477
00:36:58,133 --> 00:37:01,637
- All right. I'll have the injection.
- Good god.
478
00:37:01,762 --> 00:37:04,139
What, and dribble soup all over your dress?
479
00:37:04,598 --> 00:37:06,475
Do you know,
480
00:37:06,558 --> 00:37:10,354
the other night I woke up with my right arm
out from under the bedclothes.
481
00:37:10,437 --> 00:37:11,623
Do you know what I'd been doing?
482
00:37:11,647 --> 00:37:14,608
I'd been waving to the crowds in my sleep.
483
00:37:16,985 --> 00:37:18,153
Right.
484
00:37:21,198 --> 00:37:24,368
Hold still, please, your majesty.
485
00:37:36,547 --> 00:37:41,093
American planes, guns and ammunition
are helping the French and Vietnam forces.
486
00:37:41,427 --> 00:37:44,555
Russian and Chinese weapons
are aiding the viet minh.
487
00:37:47,975 --> 00:37:49,893
Princess Margaret dons white overalls
488
00:37:50,102 --> 00:37:52,771
when she visits calverton colliery
in nottinghamshire.
489
00:37:52,855 --> 00:37:55,524
Her visit to the coalface
a quarter of a mile underground
490
00:37:55,774 --> 00:37:57,609
is included in her tour of the colliery,
491
00:37:57,693 --> 00:38:01,113
which is recognized as one of
the most modern in Europe.
492
00:38:01,196 --> 00:38:04,950
After almost an hour underground,
the Princess brings back a souvenir,
493
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:07,244
a piece of coal she hewed herself
494
00:38:07,536 --> 00:38:10,122
did you enjoy the mining,
your royal highness?
495
00:38:10,205 --> 00:38:13,542
I did, very much.
Although it was jolly dusty down there.
496
00:38:14,418 --> 00:38:18,172
Some even went into my mouth,
but I can assure you it tasted delicious.
497
00:38:18,881 --> 00:38:20,299
Having experienced the conditions,
498
00:38:20,382 --> 00:38:22,426
do you have sympathy
for the miners that work there?
499
00:38:22,593 --> 00:38:24,553
One couldn't fail
to have sympathy for anyone
500
00:38:24,678 --> 00:38:27,514
who has to spend
their working life down there.
501
00:38:27,598 --> 00:38:30,767
It's intolerably dark and hot and cramped.
502
00:38:31,059 --> 00:38:33,770
To my eyes, it seemed conditions
are still very perilous
503
00:38:33,979 --> 00:38:38,484
for these poor, brave men
who work underground for so very little.
504
00:38:39,067 --> 00:38:41,612
What would you say
to the authorities regarding the matter?
505
00:38:43,322 --> 00:38:45,657
- I have nothing further to say.
- Who's the coal for?
506
00:38:50,829 --> 00:38:52,664
I have someone very special in mind.
507
00:38:54,541 --> 00:38:56,251
Group captain townsend?
508
00:38:58,962 --> 00:39:00,422
Are you missing him?
509
00:39:01,048 --> 00:39:03,759
Yes, I am. Very much.
510
00:39:04,468 --> 00:39:07,679
And are you missing your sister,
her majesty the queen?
511
00:39:09,765 --> 00:39:11,391
Not quite as much, no.
512
00:39:22,569 --> 00:39:24,530
- Why on earth did you say that?
- What?
513
00:39:24,613 --> 00:39:27,407
- That you missed me.
- I did. I do.
514
00:39:27,491 --> 00:39:29,701
- I know, but that wasn't wise.
- Why not?
515
00:39:32,663 --> 00:39:33,789
Darling,
516
00:39:35,290 --> 00:39:39,503
you can't use a public occasion
to take a dig at your sister like that.
517
00:39:39,878 --> 00:39:44,091
- Don't you start, too.
- It's just the palace won't like it.
518
00:39:44,675 --> 00:39:46,843
And we need the palace on our side.
519
00:39:49,137 --> 00:39:52,266
Who is it you think
you'd be letting down, anyway? A koala?
520
00:39:53,976 --> 00:39:58,105
This whole thing is a circus.
It's a miserable circus.
521
00:39:58,730 --> 00:40:02,734
Trudging from town to town,
and we're the dancing bears.
522
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:10,075
- What are you doing?
- I'm taking back this small pleasure.
523
00:40:10,158 --> 00:40:14,079
- You've taken away too much.
- No, no, no! Those things will kill you!
524
00:40:14,788 --> 00:40:15,789
Yup.
525
00:40:15,998 --> 00:40:19,167
Forty a day your father smoked,
and now I know why. Poor bastard.
526
00:40:19,334 --> 00:40:21,628
He probably took one look at this tour
and thought,
527
00:40:21,712 --> 00:40:23,880
"you know what?
I'll be better off with cancer."
528
00:40:24,006 --> 00:40:25,007
Shut up!
529
00:40:28,343 --> 00:40:30,304
What is it you're trying to prove?
530
00:40:30,596 --> 00:40:32,848
What is it you want to hear him say?
531
00:40:34,099 --> 00:40:37,978
"Bravo, lilibet. Managed the whole tour.
532
00:40:38,270 --> 00:40:42,524
"Lilibet never lets you down.
Ticked every box.
533
00:40:42,858 --> 00:40:45,235
"Never put a foot wrong.
534
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:49,114
"Now, finally,
I love you more than I love Margaret."
535
00:40:49,448 --> 00:40:51,450
- Out! Get out! Get out!
- What are you doing?
536
00:40:51,533 --> 00:40:55,078
- Get off me, woman. Christ!
- Get out!
537
00:40:56,079 --> 00:40:59,291
- Philip! Don't you dare come back here!
- Don't be ridiculous! Christ!
538
00:41:35,911 --> 00:41:39,039
- Let me go and have a word.
- No.
539
00:41:43,377 --> 00:41:44,753
I'll do it.
540
00:41:52,844 --> 00:41:55,931
I'm sorry for that little interlude.
541
00:41:57,683 --> 00:41:59,768
Although I'm sure
it must happen in every marriage.
542
00:42:02,020 --> 00:42:03,689
Now, what would you like me to do?
543
00:42:05,107 --> 00:42:06,441
For your newsreel?
544
00:42:29,631 --> 00:42:31,133
Another gift for your majesty.
545
00:42:35,178 --> 00:42:36,430
Thank you.
546
00:42:38,181 --> 00:42:40,058
Your royal highness,
547
00:42:40,726 --> 00:42:46,106
when you appear in public performing
official duties, you are not you.
548
00:42:46,314 --> 00:42:47,441
Of course I'm me.
549
00:42:47,524 --> 00:42:52,154
Expressing political opinions
about working conditions in mines,
550
00:42:52,279 --> 00:42:54,614
that business at sadler's Wells.
551
00:42:55,198 --> 00:42:58,243
And no one wants you to be you,
they want you to be it.
552
00:42:58,827 --> 00:43:00,829
A statue? A thing?
553
00:43:00,912 --> 00:43:04,416
The crown. That's what they've come to see.
Not you.
554
00:43:05,459 --> 00:43:10,630
The minute you become yourself,
you shatter the illusion, break the spell.
555
00:43:10,922 --> 00:43:14,509
What people want is someone to inhabit it.
556
00:43:15,051 --> 00:43:19,347
Not be frightened of it.
Make it flesh and blood. Bring it to life.
557
00:43:19,431 --> 00:43:23,351
Your uncle, Edward viii,
threatened to do just that,
558
00:43:23,477 --> 00:43:26,688
impose his individuality
on the institution.
559
00:43:26,855 --> 00:43:28,064
"Bring it to life."
560
00:43:28,607 --> 00:43:31,443
And he almost destroyed it in the process.
561
00:43:31,526 --> 00:43:34,529
You can't seriously be comparing this
to the abdication?
562
00:43:34,821 --> 00:43:40,368
No, but I've decided that all remaining
royal engagements in the queen's absence
563
00:43:40,452 --> 00:43:42,132
should be carried out by the queen mother.
564
00:43:44,915 --> 00:43:47,375
- My mother is in Scotland.
- So I gather.
565
00:43:47,542 --> 00:43:50,170
But I've sent someone to bring her back.
566
00:43:50,754 --> 00:43:51,880
Right away.
567
00:43:55,008 --> 00:43:56,551
Your royal highness.
568
00:44:02,474 --> 00:44:03,475
We said 11:00.
569
00:44:03,642 --> 00:44:07,145
- What time is it now?
- Well, it's nearly noon.
570
00:44:07,604 --> 00:44:10,899
Goodness, and I set off in such good time.
571
00:44:11,566 --> 00:44:13,568
- You come along the coast?
- I did.
572
00:44:13,944 --> 00:44:17,030
You didn't factor in the wind.
573
00:44:17,364 --> 00:44:21,493
- You were into the wind this morning.
- Wasn't I just?
574
00:44:21,576 --> 00:44:23,453
The good news is you'll fly back.
575
00:44:30,919 --> 00:44:35,048
I've had a chance to do some thinking.
576
00:44:35,632 --> 00:44:38,718
I've spoken to my lawyers
and I've come up with a sum
577
00:44:38,802 --> 00:44:44,266
that I think is a fair price
for this magnificently-situated castle.
578
00:44:44,599 --> 00:44:46,142
Yes, yes, go on.
579
00:44:46,852 --> 00:44:48,103
Brace yourself.
580
00:44:49,396 --> 00:44:51,231
£100.
581
00:44:53,441 --> 00:44:57,112
- What?
- I'm sorry. Is that too dear?
582
00:44:58,446 --> 00:45:01,199
- No, it's absurd.
- On the contrary, it's entirely fair,
583
00:45:01,283 --> 00:45:04,536
given it'll end up costing you
tens of thousands.
584
00:45:04,661 --> 00:45:06,580
- Are you sure?
- No.
585
00:45:06,663 --> 00:45:08,123
The question is, are you sure?
586
00:45:15,130 --> 00:45:16,756
I am.
587
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,718
All right. Congratulations.
588
00:45:19,801 --> 00:45:24,347
- I hope you'll be very happy here.
- Thank you. I have a feeling I will be.
589
00:45:24,639 --> 00:45:27,058
I can get the place
cleared out inside a week.
590
00:45:27,142 --> 00:45:29,519
Only if you've somewhere to go.
591
00:45:29,603 --> 00:45:32,397
I do. My sister's a few
miles down the coast.
592
00:45:32,939 --> 00:45:37,235
Now, will iwalk you back
to the vyners? Downwind?
593
00:45:37,319 --> 00:45:38,820
That'd be lovely.
594
00:45:54,294 --> 00:45:58,381
Your majesty, forgive
me for disturbing you.
595
00:45:59,424 --> 00:46:01,259
I come from the prime minister.
596
00:46:02,510 --> 00:46:05,013
He asks that you return
to London immediately.
597
00:46:05,388 --> 00:46:08,433
- Whatever for?
- This is all the information that I have.
598
00:46:12,604 --> 00:46:14,022
It seems I must go.
599
00:46:16,858 --> 00:46:18,526
My god.
600
00:46:20,028 --> 00:46:22,030
It's finally come to you.
601
00:46:23,782 --> 00:46:27,369
Why on earth didn't you say, ma'am?
602
00:46:27,577 --> 00:46:30,288
Because people always make such a fuss.
603
00:46:32,082 --> 00:46:33,708
And stop being themselves.
604
00:46:35,835 --> 00:46:37,837
And you would've doubled the price.
605
00:46:39,214 --> 00:46:41,091
Spoken like a true scotswoman.
606
00:47:12,789 --> 00:47:14,916
Now, my speech at Valletta.
607
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,460
There was one adjustment
that I would like to make.
608
00:47:18,420 --> 00:47:21,798
I would like to refer to Malta
as "my island of happy memories."
609
00:47:26,636 --> 00:47:28,430
Very good, ma'am.
610
00:47:28,513 --> 00:47:31,558
I shall have the text retyped
for your approval.
611
00:47:31,641 --> 00:47:32,976
Thank you.
612
00:47:37,147 --> 00:47:42,068
Ma'am, there do remain
some security concerns about Gibraltar.
613
00:47:42,777 --> 00:47:44,154
What concerns?
614
00:47:45,071 --> 00:47:49,534
Death threats were sent to all the leaders
of the major political parties,
615
00:47:49,617 --> 00:47:53,079
telling them that,
if our tour were to go to Gibraltar,
616
00:47:53,163 --> 00:47:54,748
our safety can't be guaranteed.
617
00:47:56,916 --> 00:47:58,460
I told them we should pull out.
618
00:47:59,502 --> 00:48:01,046
- Why?
- What do you mean "why"?
619
00:48:01,254 --> 00:48:05,467
Because I don't much fancy shuffling the
streets of Gibraltar like a sitting duck.
620
00:48:09,262 --> 00:48:11,973
Pulling out at this late hour
would make us look weak.
621
00:48:12,057 --> 00:48:14,768
And it would be a great disappointment
to the people of Gibraltar.
622
00:48:14,851 --> 00:48:17,270
- I say we go.
- I say we don't.
623
00:48:24,652 --> 00:48:28,490
I am aware that I am surrounded by people
624
00:48:28,573 --> 00:48:31,367
who feel that they could do the job better.
625
00:48:32,744 --> 00:48:37,373
Strong people with powerful characters,
more natural leaders,
626
00:48:37,499 --> 00:48:40,919
perhaps better suited to leading
from the front, making a Mark.
627
00:48:41,002 --> 00:48:44,380
But for better or worse,
the crown has landed on my head.
628
00:48:45,465 --> 00:48:47,050
And I say we go.
629
00:48:55,850 --> 00:48:59,062
The royal yacht britannia
sails towards Gibraltar.
630
00:48:59,145 --> 00:49:02,690
Visible on deck, her majesty the queen,
and the Duke of Edinburgh.
631
00:49:02,774 --> 00:49:04,651
Accompanying britannia,
632
00:49:04,818 --> 00:49:09,114
15 a-class destroyers
from the mediterranean fleet.
633
00:49:09,364 --> 00:49:11,908
They're shooting with a 21-gun salute.
634
00:49:13,201 --> 00:49:15,787
A powerful signal to
the people of Gibraltar
635
00:49:15,870 --> 00:49:19,040
of the queen and the British empire's
enduring support.
636
00:49:43,773 --> 00:49:49,237
Magnificent tour has already marked
her majesty as a woman of destiny.
637
00:49:52,073 --> 00:49:57,078
Her return to London after 50,000 miles
by air, land and sea
638
00:49:57,162 --> 00:50:01,666
is a triumph of diplomacy
at a challenging time for the empire.
639
00:50:03,084 --> 00:50:07,255
Not a single item of the enormous list
of engagements has been missed.
640
00:50:09,382 --> 00:50:11,759
Millions have seen and greeted their queen
641
00:50:11,843 --> 00:50:14,596
as she leaves the commonwealth
charmed and united.
642
00:50:18,683 --> 00:50:21,853
It is already clear
that her majesty will occupy a place
643
00:50:21,936 --> 00:50:24,939
among the famous queens of history
644
00:50:25,023 --> 00:50:29,110
and promises a renewed role for britain
in the modern world.
645
00:50:30,862 --> 00:50:34,741
The empire secure
across the four corners of the earth,
646
00:50:34,824 --> 00:50:38,369
marking the start of a new elizabethan age.
647
00:50:50,173 --> 00:50:51,591
- Hello.
- Your majesty.
648
00:50:58,431 --> 00:50:59,682
Yes!
649
00:51:02,852 --> 00:51:04,520
Ma'am.
650
00:51:04,604 --> 00:51:06,540
- The prime minister's arrived.
- One, two, three, go!
651
00:51:06,564 --> 00:51:08,066
- Thank you.
- I'm fast.
652
00:51:08,149 --> 00:51:11,069
- Daddy! I'm going to get you.
- No, no, no! Not the chair! Not the chair!
653
00:51:12,445 --> 00:51:15,245
- Mind the dogs! I can get away from you.
- You can't get away from me!
654
00:51:16,783 --> 00:51:18,952
The prime minister, your majesty.
655
00:51:20,787 --> 00:51:23,581
- Congratulations, your majesty.
- Thank you, Winston.
656
00:51:23,665 --> 00:51:27,252
- An unqualified triumph.
- A narrow escape, I say.
657
00:51:27,335 --> 00:51:28,812
It could so easily have gone the other way.
658
00:51:28,836 --> 00:51:33,424
Well, but it didn't,
and has put us right back where we belong.
659
00:51:33,508 --> 00:51:35,093
Higher, in fact.
660
00:51:35,802 --> 00:51:39,514
And, before the tour,
our great nation was in danger
661
00:51:39,973 --> 00:51:45,353
of losing much of its status,
our influence, our standing.
662
00:51:46,020 --> 00:51:49,440
Your courage and conviction prevailed.
663
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:52,193
This time, perhaps.
664
00:51:52,568 --> 00:51:54,904
But in time they will
surely grow tired of it.
665
00:51:55,613 --> 00:51:58,324
- Grow tired of us.
- Only if the crown
666
00:51:58,825 --> 00:52:01,327
and the people representing the crown
667
00:52:02,370 --> 00:52:05,415
make mistakes, errors of judgement.
668
00:52:05,957 --> 00:52:08,084
- My dear sister?
- Yes.
669
00:52:09,836 --> 00:52:11,546
What would you have me do?
670
00:52:21,139 --> 00:52:23,308
- Thank you, ma'am.
- Your majesty?
671
00:52:23,391 --> 00:52:26,227
- Her royal highness is on her way.
- Thank you.
672
00:52:28,688 --> 00:52:30,898
It's all right. I have been here before.
673
00:52:32,233 --> 00:52:33,776
I do know the way.
674
00:52:45,246 --> 00:52:47,874
- What, in there?
- Yes, ma'am.
675
00:53:10,438 --> 00:53:11,689
Goodness.
676
00:53:23,701 --> 00:53:25,995
What have I done to deserve this?
677
00:53:26,079 --> 00:53:27,205
The brief was simple.
678
00:53:28,456 --> 00:53:32,960
Perform minor ceremonial tasks
with a minimum of fuss.
679
00:53:33,878 --> 00:53:35,588
Not end up all over the newspapers.
680
00:53:35,671 --> 00:53:37,924
I can't help it if they
want to write about me.
681
00:53:38,549 --> 00:53:41,469
Well, it would help
if you didn't give them what they crave.
682
00:53:41,552 --> 00:53:44,347
- Character and excitement.
- Instability and drama.
683
00:53:44,430 --> 00:53:47,058
Well, at least I give them something.
You give them nothing.
684
00:53:47,975 --> 00:53:50,812
- I give them silence.
- Silence is nothing.
685
00:53:51,020 --> 00:53:55,274
- It's the absence of noise.
- Emptiness, blank page.
686
00:53:55,483 --> 00:53:58,152
- Which allows others to shine.
- But the monarchy should shine.
687
00:53:58,236 --> 00:54:00,071
The monarchy, yes.
688
00:54:00,154 --> 00:54:01,280
Not the monarch.
689
00:54:03,491 --> 00:54:05,535
Reparations will need to be made.
690
00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:07,495
To whom?
691
00:54:08,121 --> 00:54:09,789
To the people you offended.
692
00:54:11,541 --> 00:54:14,043
A general, to whom,
when asked if you'd like to dance,
693
00:54:14,168 --> 00:54:16,754
you replied, "yes, but not with you."
694
00:54:17,630 --> 00:54:20,299
I believe there was also a debutante who
you managed to make cry,
695
00:54:20,383 --> 00:54:22,593
and the dancers of sadler's Wells,
696
00:54:22,677 --> 00:54:26,889
whom you refused to meet
after arriving late for the performance.
697
00:54:26,973 --> 00:54:28,724
You showed individuality.
698
00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:31,185
And that made people panic.
699
00:54:31,519 --> 00:54:33,354
They don't want individuality.
700
00:54:33,938 --> 00:54:37,859
The last person who showed character
almost took the ship down.
701
00:54:40,945 --> 00:54:42,363
You are enjoying this.
702
00:54:43,573 --> 00:54:45,658
- Not a bit.
- Yes, you are.
703
00:54:49,620 --> 00:54:52,206
Admonishing your unruly young sister.
704
00:54:55,168 --> 00:54:57,003
Have you ever thought
how it must be for me?
705
00:54:57,086 --> 00:55:00,590
Many times, at great length, wistfully.
706
00:55:00,673 --> 00:55:04,469
You have a role, a clear set of rules.
707
00:55:04,552 --> 00:55:05,970
All you have to do is follow them.
708
00:55:06,053 --> 00:55:09,599
Margaret, you have freedom.
All you have to do is enjoy it.
709
00:55:09,682 --> 00:55:11,434
You think that I am free?
710
00:55:11,517 --> 00:55:15,062
To be constantly in your shadow,
constantly the overlooked one.
711
00:55:15,146 --> 00:55:18,191
- It looks like heaven to me.
- What you have looks like heaven to me.
712
00:55:26,616 --> 00:55:28,659
Two sisters who envy one another.
713
00:55:30,453 --> 00:55:32,163
We wouldn't be the first.
714
00:55:38,503 --> 00:55:40,004
Pride and joy.
715
00:55:42,381 --> 00:55:44,759
Remember what papa called us.
716
00:55:45,718 --> 00:55:46,802
Yes.
717
00:55:48,596 --> 00:55:51,891
"Elizabeth is my pride,
and Margaret is myjoy."
718
00:55:53,100 --> 00:55:55,102
"'But' Margaret is myjoy."
719
00:55:58,231 --> 00:56:01,776
I'm sorry. I have to claim
the few victories I'm left with.
720
00:56:03,402 --> 00:56:05,404
We're not disputing it, surely?
721
00:56:07,281 --> 00:56:10,076
- What?
- That I was papa's favorite.
722
00:56:18,084 --> 00:56:20,211
There's a cruel truth to it, isn't there?
723
00:56:21,128 --> 00:56:23,506
When there are two sisters so close in age,
724
00:56:24,131 --> 00:56:26,676
the more one becomes one thing,
the more the other
725
00:56:27,385 --> 00:56:29,512
necessarily becomes the opposite,
726
00:56:30,471 --> 00:56:31,806
and vice versa.
727
00:56:32,515 --> 00:56:34,100
It's the way of things.
728
00:56:34,850 --> 00:56:35,977
If one is the queen,
729
00:56:36,060 --> 00:56:38,396
it must be the source of honor,
all that is good,
730
00:56:38,479 --> 00:56:43,025
the other necessarily becomes
the focus of the most
731
00:56:44,569 --> 00:56:46,153
creative malice.
732
00:56:47,488 --> 00:56:48,573
Evil sister.
733
00:56:49,657 --> 00:56:51,158
No one says you're evil.
734
00:56:51,242 --> 00:56:53,786
Next to you, I will always be evil.
735
00:56:54,954 --> 00:56:56,330
Feckless.
736
00:56:57,415 --> 00:56:58,624
Lost
737
00:57:00,293 --> 00:57:01,752
lesser thing.
738
00:57:06,632 --> 00:57:10,052
And yet you spend so much time
telling me that I'm a lesser thing.
739
00:57:12,763 --> 00:57:15,099
Only to give myself a moment's peace.
740
00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:27,778
Would you consider doing it for me?
741
00:57:29,071 --> 00:57:31,365
- Just from time to time.
- What?
742
00:57:32,033 --> 00:57:35,369
Putting a foot wrong.
The occasional mistake.
743
00:57:35,953 --> 00:57:37,622
Let the side down.
744
00:57:38,539 --> 00:57:41,876
So I might not be so conspicuous a failure
by comparison.
745
00:57:41,959 --> 00:57:45,004
- You're tired.
- No, I'm not. Not tired.
746
00:57:48,841 --> 00:57:51,552
I'm just asking for a future I can bear.
747
00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:00,936
Margaret.
748
00:58:05,816 --> 00:58:08,944
Do I have your word
that those apologies will be made?
749
00:58:13,324 --> 00:58:16,452
We can help you draft letters
or make statements.
750
00:58:21,749 --> 00:58:23,000
No need.
