- I said we were not to be disturbed.
521
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,160
It's the Minister of State
for Foreign Affairs, sir.
522
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:38,600
He said it was urgent.
523
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,799
I'm afraid I didn't know
who else to come and see.
524
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:46,200
[MOUNTBATTEN] Not at all.
525
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:49,480
Come on up.
526
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:51,639
- Hello, darling.
- Don't stay up.
527
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:52,679
Won't be back until late.
528
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:54,239
[MOUNTBATTEN] Have fun.
Where are you off to?
529
00:35:54,240 --> 00:35:56,799
I thought we agreed,
mysteries on both sides.
530
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:58,679
- We did.
- Then don't ask.
531
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,019
[MOUNTBATTEN] May I
present Anthony Nutting?
532
00:36:01,020 --> 00:36:02,719
Minister of State for Foreign Affairs.
533
00:36:02,720 --> 00:36:04,319
- [EDWINA] How do you do?
- Lady Mountbatten.
534
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,399
- I entirely approve of foreign affairs.
- Now, now, darling.
535
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:09,519
[EDWINA] Mm, this one's even
more handsome than Eden.
536
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:10,959
A cabinet of dishes.
537
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,240
- [LAUGHS] You're very kind.
- [EDWINA] How was the fitting, dear?
538
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:16,959
I'll let you into a secret, Mr. Nutting.
539
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:18,959
My husband cares for nothing and no one
540
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,120
in quite the same way he
cares for his uniforms.
541
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,759
We're fortunate enough to have
a ballroom in this house.
542
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,120
But is it the largest room here? No.
543
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:29,280
That's reserved for my
husband's uniforms.
544
00:36:29,720 --> 00:36:33,759
[INHALES] One can only ask oneself
what it all compensates for.
545
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:35,600
I should have thought that was obvious.
546
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:40,479
The gaping wounds left by the
simplest encounter with you, my dear.
547
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:41,680
[EDWINA] Hm.
548
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:43,680
Shall we?
549
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,443
[NUTTING] I'm not saying I condone
550
00:36:45,444 --> 00:36:47,239
how Nasser is behaving, not at all.
551
00:36:47,240 --> 00:36:49,799
The man clearly needs to
be put back in his place.
552
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,639
But my greater concern is that
our Prime Minister's response
553
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:56,760
to the whole situation is... personal.
554
00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:59,540
Deeply personal, and that he will reach
555
00:36:59,541 --> 00:37:02,039
for the ultimate solution,
armed conflict,
556
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:05,079
without waiting for an international
coalition to join him.
557
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:06,080
Today,
558
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,479
a delegation of French government
and intelligence officials
559
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,800
came to Downing Street for secret talks.
560
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:17,800
Further secret talks are planned
with Israeli officials next week.
561
00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:21,159
[BUTLER 1] So, what have we got today?
562
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:24,519
[BUTLER 2] Potted shrimp or
deviled crabmeat imperial.
563
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:27,080
Followed by cassoulets à la jockey club.
564
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,760
Lord Mountbatten, Your Majesty.
565
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:32,759
Thank you for seeing me.
566
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,159
[ELIZABETH] Well, I've got
a long-standing commitment
567
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,399
at the theater, I'm afraid.
568
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:39,839
But I thought we'd have an
early supper before I go.
569
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:43,200
Mommy's most put out she
hasn't been invited. Hm.
570
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:49,839
Mm. Under normal circumstances, uh,
571
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:55,576
a mad rush to war might be
explained as a play for legacy.
572
00:37:55,577 --> 00:37:56,599
[ELIZABETH] Mm-hmm.
573
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:58,719
He was in Winston's shadow for so long,
574
00:37:58,720 --> 00:38:03,003
a quick and successful war
might look good on his record.
575
00:38:03,004 --> 00:38:04,632
But in this case,
576
00:38:04,633 --> 00:38:08,883
I think it boils down to an
irrational personal dislike.
577
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:14,159
The two men, he and Nasser,
just hate one another.
578
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,719
And the rest of us are just
getting caught up in it.
579
00:38:16,720 --> 00:38:18,719
What are you suggesting
that I do about it?
580
00:38:18,720 --> 00:38:20,239
You have your weekly private audience
581
00:38:20,240 --> 00:38:21,839
in which the two of you are alone.
582
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:25,199
Observe him carefully.
Listen to him closely.
583
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,840
Read your cabinet minutes... minutely.
584
00:38:29,240 --> 00:38:31,039
Speak your mind.
585
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,199
Yes, well, I'm not really
supposed to do that.

of national security?

All right. Fine.

- The food.
- What's wrong with it?
597
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:06,759
It belongs in a nursery. Everything
that should've been hot was cold.

been soft was hard.

Trying to tame them is no use.
609
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:43,239
There were times in India, it
was all right under my nose,
610
00:39:43,240 --> 00:39:46,800
with Nehru of all people,
my opposite number.
611
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:50,920
The humiliation could not
have been more complete.
612
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:54,919
Of course I considered ending it.
613
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:59,440
And then I imagined how thin
and how poor life would be.

- Oh.
- Well, I should say Royal Ballet.

We've just given them a charter,
so I really do have to go.
622

- It's Giselle.
- Oh, isn't that Galina Ulanova?

00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:41,719
- Yes.

Ah.
648
00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:50,079
In the early hours of this morning,
649
00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:54,559
the Israeli army launched an
attack into Egyptian territory,
650
00:45:54,560 --> 00:46:00,279
the Sinai Peninsula, and is rapidly
approaching the Suez Canal.
651
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:04,760
The Egyptian army has
mobilized a retaliatory force
652
00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:07,880
and is about to engage.
653
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:13,159
Her Majesty's government
has now issued a deadline
654
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:16,400
to both Israel and Egypt
655
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:21,799
to halt all acts of war... and to allow
656
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:25,199
Anglo-French forces into the
country to preserve the peace.
657
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,753
The Israelis have
expressed a willingness
658
00:46:27,754 --> 00:46:30,363
to comply if the Egyptians
do, but alas...
659
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:35,600

Tomorrow morning, ma'am.
662
00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:45,679
And the next step, in
your view, would be?
663
00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:47,439

the stability of the whole world.
668
00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:08,160
Well... Thank you for your explanation.
669
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:17,360
Before you go, I do have
one or two questions.
670
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:22,400
When you mentioned that the
Israelis had launched an attack,
671
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:24,640
you didn't seem surprised.
672
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,079
Why would I seem surprised?
673
00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:33,639
Unless I'm mistaken, the Israeli
position has always been
674
00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:35,370
that they would, under no circumstances,
675
00:47:35,371 --> 00:47:37,923
launch a full-scale attack by themselves
676
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:40,480
for fear of diplomatic isolation.
677
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:43,680
And yet they've gone on
to do precisely that,
678
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:47,800
indicating that either
they changed their mind,
679
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:52,800
or... there'd been some
kind of collusion.
680
00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:58,120
Have we?
681
00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:02,040
