The Prince of Wales, Your Majesty.

Thank you.

It's done.

I did it.

- Where?
- In the nursery.

I wanted to talk to you…

Nursery?

Hardly the most romantic setting.

Did you get on one knee?

No, I didn't.

- And I'm surprised by the question.
- Why?

I thought, in terms of rank,

the Prince of Wales only ever knelt
before the sovereign.

He didn't say that.

What did you say?

I said, "It's a proposal of marriage,
dear, not a show of strength."Hmm.

After all that, did she at least accept?

Yes.

Yes.

What did she say?

Yes, please.

That it was
the happiest moment of her life.

Aw…

Aw…

Aw.

Congratulations.

- Then what?
- I sent her back to London.

♪ Boy, you turn me… ♪

- Where does she live?
- Earl's Court, in a flat she shares with...

- Prostitutes and Australians.
- What?

- Isn't that who lives in Earl's Court?
- In a flat she shares with friends.

Here's Diana! Diana, over here!

Any news, Lady Di?

Have you just been to Buckingham Palace?
Did you see the Prince of Wales?

From one woman to another,
is he a romantic at heart?

Lady Diana,
just one more question, please.

And?

Now what we have here
is a rather special box of chocolates.

Some are ours,
passed down through the family,

and some are for sale.

Anyway, the idea is that you pick one.

Any one?

- Hmm.
- Um…

Oh…

Gosh.

Um…

This one's lovely.

- That's one of ours.
- Yes, ma'am.

From the Mogok Valley.

Any idea where that is?

Oh, I'm rather thick at geography.

Burma.

There's a legend, ma'am,

that long, long ago,

the northern part of Burma

was inhabited only by wild animals
and poisonous snakes. One day...

I think I prefer this one.

Yes, a lovely choice, ma'am.

That's one of yours. What can you tell us
about that, apart from the price?

It's a 12-carat
oval Ceylon sapphire, Your Majesty.

Surrounded by 14 diamonds.

Set in 18-karat white gold.

And you like that one because…

It's the most expensive?

No.

Because it reminds me
of my mother's engagement ring.

And… it's the same color as my eyes.

- She is lovely.
- Yes.

But so young.

Yes.
Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother,

suggested moving Lady Diana
into Buckingham Palace

before the announcement of the engagement
to protect her from the media.

Oh, that is sensible.

She also thought
some tutorials might be useful

for what will be a very drastic transition
from teenager to royal princess.

And…

Well, the feeling was,
if Your Majesty were agreeable…

- That I should be her teacher?
- Well, one queen to the next.

Mother-in-law, daughter-in-law,
might be nice.

Oh no, there's a lot to learn,
a lot to get right.

And you know me.
I'm far too much of a softy.

Mm.

Diana's grandmother,
Lady Fermoy, can do it.

Ma'am.

- Straight in at the deep end.
- Dinner with the family at Clarence House.

So fucking grand!

- So not Earl's Court.
- No.

A toast.

- To no more worries.
- No more flatmates.

No more rent collection or kindergarten.

No more cleaning your sister's flat.

Oh God!

Off to your palaces
and castles and frocks.

And jewels!

And to one day, not too far away,
being the fucking Queen.

Oh…

You will call, won't you? And write?

On Palace writing paper.
So that we can show everyone.

- I'll phone morning and night.
- No, you won't.

You'll be too busy trying on tiaras
and having tea brought to you.

Bye!

- Bye!
- Bye, Duch.

Bye, Princess.

- Diana!
- Diana!

Stop where you are, sir. Get back, please.

Get back.

Thank you.

So there we are

in Manila,
in the middle of a state banquet,

when who barges into the room?

None other than Imelda Marcos.

She makes a beeline straight for me,

saying she's desperate to show me her…
Wait for it…

- Shoe collection.
- Mm-mm.

Shell collection.

Are you sure?

She was probably trying to say "shoe,"
and you misunderstood her.

- Did she have something in her teeth?
- Shoe.

Shell.

No, I can assure you

it was "seashells."

So now the whole dinner party
decants into a convoy of limousines,

we're rushed through
the streets of Manila...

- Lady Diana Spencer, Your Majesty.
- I was speaking.

Uh…

- Oh dear.
- Sorry.

Your Majesty.

Um…

- Your Majesty.
- Hmm.

Your Royal Highness,
I didn't see you there.

Evidently not.
I was the one telling the story

you ruined with your entrance.

Sorry.

Uh-uh… This one next.

- Honestly.
- Sir.

"Your Royal Highness"
if it's the first greeting, then "sir."

Now me.

Ma'am.

You don't curtsy to her. She's not royal.

- Just grand.
- Poor Susan!

So sorry.

Thank goodness we've got
your grandmother to sort this out.

She's like
a regimental sergeant major.

- Aren't you?
- When required.

Urgently required,
I'd say, on tonight's showing.

- You'll iron all this out in no time.
- Ma'am.

Anyway, where was I?

Being rushed
through the streets of Manila.

Yes,
in Madam Marcos's private aquarium…

where she keeps
a vast portrait of herself…

wearing…

It is with the greatest pleasure…

that the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh

announce the betrothal
of their beloved son the Prince of Wales

to the Lady Diana Spencer…

daughter of the Earl Spencer

and the Honorable Mrs. Shand Kydd.

Hmm.

Well, many congratulations, sir.

I wonder if you both remember
when you first met.

It was a few years ago now.

I was visiting her sister,

and Diana was still quite young then.

And what was it about her
that made the biggest impression on you?

She was very original and lots of fun.

And for you?

Oh, he was simply marvelous.

What can you tell us
about the actual wedding?

We're not that far on yet,
but for now, we're delighted, really.

Mm-hmm.

I see you're going to bring
a deep and lasting joy to the nation.

And if I may say,

you both look very much in love.

Oh yes, absolutely.

Whatever "in love" means.

Where are you going?

Highgrove.

I have to go back to Gloucestershire

to pick up a few things
for this foreign tour.

Don't look like that.

Like what?

I'll see you at the airport tomorrow.

Why are you so pleased?

'Cause I think
she's just the right person for him.

It's great, innit? It cheers everybody up…

Putting you through now, ma'am.

- Are you calling from the palace?
- I am.

- What's it like?
- I have my own little apartment.

With a maid and a dresser.

- Oh, you're a real princess!
- And a sitting room.

Does the phone
have a little crown on it?

Is the ring tone
"God Save the Queen"?

- Telly supper with the boss yet?
- No.

Haven't spent any time with her yet,
even though we're in the same building.

We saw one of your interviews.

- On television.
- Di, you looked great.

Di, they played it
on the six o'clock news.

Did you hear how he answered
when they asked if we were in love?

- He said...
- I know. We heard.

Don't worry.
He was probably just a bit embarrassed.

Diana! Over here!

There she is!

Charles, over here!

I'm sorry.
This tour hasn't come at a good time.

Oh, I'll be fine.
Locked up in the palace on my own…

It's not for long.

Six weeks.

- Oh, it'll fly by.
- I doubt it.

Kiss her!

Anyway, I'll see you at the altar.

I've asked Mrs. Parker Bowles
to get in touch with you.

Your ex? Why would you do that?

Because she's great fun.

I just thought if ever you wanted company,

she's the best company.

- Charles!
- Another kiss! Another one!

Big smile!

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

I should warn you,
this won't be one session.

This won't be two sessions.

What any new entry
into the royal family needs to learn

could barely be covered in 20 sessions,
but we will do it,

and I will work you hard
because you cannot be allowed to fail.

I propose we divide our lessons together
into three areas.

History. The history of the royal family,

the Court of St. James's,
the palaces and houses, and the household.

Deportment.

What to wear,

how and where to sit,

when to open your mouth
and, more importantly, what to say.

But based on the horrors
we saw the other night,

I think we need to start with
the all-important sink or swim rules,

rules which
if you get a single one of these wrong,

you're not just in trouble. You're dead.

- Right.
- Beginning with rank and precedence

and identifying which members
of the royal family you must curtsy to,

how, and in which order.

In your current position,
you curtsy to everyone,

but after you become Princess of Wales,

things get a little more complicated

because certain members of the family
will have to curtsy to you.

That in itself changes depending on
whether you're with the Prince of Wales…

Do you know, the one thing I really hate
is when I go to a restaurant

and the waiter comes to the table
and attempts to memorize the order

without writing it down.

You just know it's going to go wrong.

Right. When you are unaccompanied
as Princess of Wales…

♪ The music is weaving… ♪

♪ The image has gone
Only you and I ♪

♪ It means nothing to me ♪

Good morning.

Good morning, ma'am.

What's all this?

- It's your post, ma'am.
- Right.

Dear Lady Diana, I don't suppose
you'll ever get to read this,

but I wanted to tell you
how much I enjoyed seeing the interview

you gave with the Prince of Wales
on television the other day. You looked…

- I knew then it must be love.
- …a young couple at the start…

…already has a poster of you
and Prince Charles on her bedroom wall…

…listening to this special day
on the radio with my mother.

I will send you
a traditional marriage blanket…

It's because you love people
no matter where they're from.

…you were
someone I could talk to…

…hairstyle,
how you have a smile for everyone.

Please can I be your flower girl?

Because I have never been one,
and my sister has.

Freya, age seven.

Preparation. Arms. One, two.

Three, four. And one, two, three, four.

And point, point, point, and point.

Now finish.

Finish, and our arms come down.

And you present.

As you start low, the first one,

and then the next one higher,
then the next one higher, and then the…

At primary schools
all over the land,

grateful teachers have seized upon
the wedding as their end-of-term project.

The key idea, to send a wedding card

from their class
to Prince Charles and Lady Diana.

This one was done
at a school in Southport,

and it was a pretty imaginative affair.
Everyone joined in,

but it was thought safer
to let the teacher address the envelope.

♪ And I sense a rhythm humming
In a frenzy all the way down her spine ♪

♪ Girls on film ♪

♪ Girls on film… ♪

- Your Majesty.
- Good morning, Stephen.

Thank you, John.

There are three equerries to Her Majesty
within the palace,

one of them also performing the role
of Deputy Master of the Household.

In addition to the Queen's Page,

Her Majesty's
most senior personal servant,

there are also three categories of page.

Pages of the Chambers,
Pages of the Presence,

and Pages of the Back Stairs.

Now, shall we move on
to Ladies of the Bedchamber?

If the weather's fine,

Prince Charles will make his way
to the altar and leave later

with Lady Diana in the 1902 State Landau.

It was first used by King Edward VII

and is now favored by the Queen
to meet foreign heads of state.

Its wet weather replacement
will be the Scottish State Coach…

Yes, ma'am?

Could I speak to the Prince of Wales's
private secretary, please?

One moment, please.

I'm afraid there's no answer, but I'll
certainly let Mr. Adeane know you called.

Thank you.

Yes, ma'am?

I was wondering which number to call
to speak to the Queen.

One moment, please.

Her Majesty is at a reception, ma'am,
but I shall inform her of your call.

Thank you.

Once upon a time…

not so long ago…

there was a little girl,
and her name was Emily.

Morning, ma'am. More letters for you.

And she had a shop.

There it is.

It was rather an unusual shop
because it didn't sell anything.

You see, everything in that shop window
was a thing that somebody had once lost.

The Prince of Wales and I
are incredibly grateful

that you've all come out here
to join us this evening

in support of a cause
that's incredibly close to our hearts.

Protecting our local wildlife

is, um, crucial.

It is a…

You use your hands far too much.
You make gestures when you talk.

Gestures reveal us,

whether we're anxious or agitated
or cross. It's best not to give that away.

One should never try
to show one's emotions.

Now, Queen Mary famously taught
her ladies-in-waiting to use rope

to stop their arms flapping about
like windmills.

It's better.

Please carry on.

The Prince of Wales and I
are so incredibly grateful…

um, for all… to all of you
for coming here this evening

and showing your support
to a cause that is so…

um, incredibly close
to both of our hearts,

especially the Prince of Wales.

I haven't heard from him for three weeks.

He must be busy.

But not to ring a single time!

I asked to speak to the Queen,
but she won't see me either.

- Has he sent flowers?
- Nothing.

I get letters
from people all over the world,

but nothing, not a squeak,
from the man I'm supposed to marry.

How are you all?

Good. Penny's taken your room.

Peter's over.

All the time.

Of course,
he's in love with Virginia!

- Stop!
- Oh, Duch, we miss you so much!

- Ma'am.
- Over here!

- Lady Di!
- Over here, Lady Di!

- Just a picture, please.
- Di, just a quick snap!

- Don't you want a picture?
- Welcome to Ménage à Trois.

Here she is.

It was so kind of you to write.

Oh, not at all.
It's the very least I could do.

When the Prince of Wales told me

he was going away for six weeks
and not taking you…

May I?

Oh…

I said, "That's not very nice."

"Your poor brand-spanking-new,
gorgeous, young fiancée,

all alone in the house."

- Actually, left all alone in the palace.
- Yes.

Well, not the house.

That's what the Prince of Wales
calls Buckingham Palace.

It's what they all call it. "The house."

Mm.

Thank you.

The concept here is no main courses,

just starters and desserts.

No need to feel guilty about ordering pud
'cause it's all you're getting.

I'll have that delicious duck
and truffle ravioli thing I had last time,

then the orange and chocolate
creamy creation

that's stalked my dreams ever since.

I'll have the same.

Are you sure?

I'm very happy to go with the flow.

Well, he'll love that.

He's so fussy and set in his ways.
He'll love it if you adapt to him.

Trio of chocolate mousses
with vanilla cream and candied orange.

- Lovely!
- Thank you.

Thank you.

Mm! You know,
I took the Prince of Wales here once,

thinking he might like to try
something new. He loathed it.

- Oh?
- Loathed.

And not just the concept
or the décor or the people,

but… they made the cardinal mistake

of refusing to put a soft-boiled egg
on top.

What?

He has a soft-boiled egg with everything.

You must know that.

And he never eats garlic.

Because of this bizarre new rule,
come suppertime, he's always ravenous.

Which new rule?

The lunch rule.

I'd have thought it would've been one
of the first things you noticed about him.

The Prince of Wales doesn't eat lunch.

- What, never?
- Not if he can help it.

And if he's forced to
because of some engagement,

it puts him in a terrible mood,
and he drones on about gas and bloating,

and "wasted energy
due to needless digestion."

I try to cheer him up,
but when his tummy goes,

so does his sense of humor, I'm afraid.

One of his awful gurus put him onto it.

Well, not gurus, but you know
how he loves to surround himself

with dreary older men
and daddy substitutes.

No.

Darling, you really know nothing, do you?

You need a proper Fred tutorial.

No, thank you.

Who's Fred?

It's my nickname for the Prince of Wales.
And he calls me Gladys.

It's harmless nonsense, really.

Right.

Anyway,
one of his boring friends,

probably Laurens van der Post…

Good luck with that, by the way. Snooze.

…got into his head and said that it was
only healthy to eat two meals a day,

and since Fred says that breakfast
was too delicious to give up,

and dinner's too important,
it had to be lunch.

Now that you mention it,

we've hardly been with one another
at lunchtime,

so I haven't really noticed.

Fact is,
we've hardly been with one another at all.

That's not true.

It is.

- You met at Badminton Horse Trials.
- Yes.

Then Verdi's Requiem at the Albert Hall,
with a chaperone.

Granny, yes.

- Who didn't let you out of her sight.
- Not for a second.

Then the weekend at Balmoral,
where you were a complete triumph.

It'll go down in history
as one of the great Balmoral debuts,

the perfect ten. And then…

Highgrove?

Golly. He obviously tells you everything.

Well, we talk most days.

What did you think of it?

His new house.

- Highgrove?
- Mm.

It's, um… It's lovely.

- Isn't it?
- Mm.

He asked me what I would do with it
if I was decorating.

- Did he?
- Mm.

Yes. I'm rather good at all that.

And what did you say?

I said I'd like to zhuzh it up a bit.
Make it a bit less stuffy.

Give it a bit of color,
some yellows and peaches.

And don't forget green,

his favorite.

And green.

Do you garden?

- Not really.
- He's obsessed by gardening.

Yes, I know.

He's already talking about
either a wild garden or a walled garden.

Both.

- Both.
- Mm.

And a kitchen garden and a sundial garden.
Do you fish?

No, not really.

- What about hunting?
- Not if I can help it.

More of a townie, really.

So you see yourself living more in London
than in the country?

Why do you ask?

Just curious.

Mm.

Now I'm sorry, I can't stay for coffee.

Oh, then let me get this.

Absolutely not. I'm the senior party here.

Oh please.

Oh, let's go Dutch.

Good idea.

I'm all for sharing.

Lady Spencer is here to see you.
She asked if she could wait.

Thank you. Can I help you, ma'am?

I need to speak to the Prince of Wales
as soon as possible.

I'm afraid he's unavailable.

Is that what he asked you to tell me?

"If my future wife wants to speak to me,
make an excuse"?

No, His Royal Highness is unavailable

because he's on an aeroplane flying home.

- I thought he was flying back tomorrow.
- He was always flying back today.

What are these?

Those are drawings.

Of what?

I believe it's a bracelet
which the Prince of Wales has had made.

For who?

Yes, ma'am?

I need to speak to the Queen.
I need to speak to her.

- Ma'am...
- Don't fob me off.

It is absolutely essential
that I see the Queen.

This wedding can't go ahead.

It'll be a disaster for everyone.

Her Majesty is unavailable, but I shall...

Everything all right in Gloucestershire?

Why do you ask?

There must have been
something very important

for you to go straight there
from the airport.

As it happens, there was.

Gladys.

She told you.

I saw the bracelet.

I had the bracelet made
as a farewell gift.

A… souvenir.

I went to Gloucestershire for two reasons.

To tell Camilla face-to-face
that it's over.

Over.

And to collect this.

Open it.

A signet ring.

Prince of Wales insignia.

For the Princess of Wales.

Shall we begin the rehearsal?

Marriage is an honorable estate

instituted of God himself,

and therefore is not, by any,
to be enterprised,

nor taken in hand unadvisedly,
lightly, or wantonly,

but reverently, discreetly, soberly,

and in the fear of God.

Charles Philip Arthur George,

wilt thou have this woman
to thy wedded wife?

- Etcetera.
- Yes. Yes.

How were rehearsals?

Mummy and I thought lovely.

Margaret disagrees.

Charles loves someone else.

How many times

can this family make the same mistake?

Forbidding marriages…

that should be allowed.

Forcing others that shouldn't.

Paying the consequences each time.

He's marrying Diana.

But he's still in love with the other one.

Let me say something as a man.

The older Diana gets,

the more confident Diana becomes,

the more beautiful Diana becomes,
which she will…

the more
Charles will fall in love with her,

and this will all be fine.

In the meantime, he…

juggles them both?

That's how it works.

How it's always worked.

This is madness.
We can stop them now,

before they tie the knot.

Not just for the sake of the monarchy,
but for them as human beings.

We have to stop them now.

Mummy?

When your great-grandmother, Queen Mary,
was a beautiful young princess…

she was about to marry
her Prince Charming.

But before they got to the church,
he fell ill and died.

But everyone was so impressed with her,

that they put her together
with his younger brother.

Only one problem.
The younger brother was Prince Charmless.

Dull and shy.

There was no attraction,
certainly no love.

But in order to make the marriage work,
they were encouraged

to focus on the bigger idea.

Duty.

They worked and worked and worked.

And out of that work, a tiny seed grew.

A seed of respect and admiration,

a seed that grew into a flower
they could eventually call love.

They were married for 42 years.

They stabilized a country
that was at war with itself,

and they left the Crown stronger,

while all around them,
the great monarchies of Europe fell.

Now I cannot claim to be
the most intuitive mother,

but I do think I know
when one of my children is unhappy.

Whatever wretchedness you are feeling now…

whatever doubts you harbor…

if you could follow
the example of your great-grandmother…

love and happiness will surely follow.

The question of the day,

apart from,
"What's the dress going to look like?"

is, "What's the weather going to be?"

Your most detailed forecast ever then,
Jack.

What's it gonna be like
from Buckingham Palace to St. Paul's?

This sunshine says it all, John,
really, doesn't it?

Well, the sun shining down
on a crowd that seems ready

to cheer almost anything that moves,

and it's a crowd that's getting bigger
and bigger by the minute

as the overnight trains and buses

bring thousands more people
to the palace from all over the nation.

Lots of people here
went to the fireworks display

last night in Hyde Park,

and then came straight down
to the palace afterwards

to make sure they get a good spot.

We're now getting closer to that point

when Prince Charles and then Lady Diana
set off for St. Paul's,

a scene that will be quite literally
flashed around the globe.

The King and Queen
of the Belgians, the King of Norway

with the Crown Prince and Crown Princess,

the Queen of Denmark,
the Prince of Denmark,

the King and Queen of Sweden,
the Queen of the Netherlands,

the Prince of the Netherlands, Grand-Duke
and Grand Duchess of Luxembourg,

the Prince and Princess of Liechtenstein,
and the Princess of Monaco.

The next time we see that coach,
we'll be peering inside these windows

to see if we can get some idea

of what the wedding dress
really looks like.

Thank you.

Here is the stuff
of which fairy tales are made.

The prince and princess
on their wedding day.

But fairy tales usually end at this point

with the simple phrase,
"They lived happily ever after."

This may be because fairy tales
regard marriage as an anticlimax

after the romance of courtship.

As husband and wife live out their vows,

loving and cherishing one another,

sharing life's splendors and miseries,

achievements and setbacks,

they will be transformed in the process.

Our faith sees the wedding day
not as the place of arrival,

but the place
where the adventure really begins.
