- Have you voted yet, Mr Crawford?
- Yes, Ma'am.
11
00:00:59,334 --> 00:01:03,500
I was there when they opened.
First in line, seven o'clock.
12
00:01:03,625 --> 00:01:08,167
I don't mind telling you,
it wasn't for Mr Blair.
13
00:01:09,584 --> 00:01:12,334
- You're not a moderniser?
- Certainly not.
14
00:01:12,459 --> 00:01:16,834
We're in danger of losing too much
that is good about this country.
15
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,584
(Man) 'There is a growing sense
of excitement.
16
00:01:21,875 --> 00:01:23,917
I envy you, being able to vote.
17
00:01:24,042 --> 00:01:26,375
Not the actual ticking of the box,
18
00:01:26,500 --> 00:01:30,625
although it would be nice
to experience that once...
19
00:01:31,625 --> 00:01:34,375
...but the sheer joy of being partial.
20
00:01:34,500 --> 00:01:40,042
Yes. Of course, one forgets that as
sovereign, you're not entitled to vote.
21
00:01:40,167 --> 00:01:44,709
- No.
- Still, 1 don't feel sorry for you.
22
00:01:45,709 --> 00:01:48,417
You might not be allowed to vote,
ma'am...

(Chuckles)
24
00:01:50,792 --> 00:01:53,209
...but it is your government.
25
00:01:54,459 --> 00:01:56,542
Yes.
26
00:01:56,667 --> 00:01:58,917
I suppose that is some consolation.
27
00:01:59,959 --> 00:02:02,584
(Chuckles)
28
00:02:29,834 --> 00:02:32,834
(Slow march on bagpipes)

00:02:53,875 --> 00:02:55,875
(Soft knocking)
30
00:03:00,167 --> 00:03:02,167
Good morning.
31
00:03:03,584 --> 00:03:06,459
- Shall I draw the curtains?
- Yes, please.
32
00:03:08,292 --> 00:03:10,834
So, did you stay up all night?
33
00:03:11,084 --> 00:03:13,334
- Yes, ma'am.
- And was it as expected?
34
00:03:15,167 --> 00:03:17,959
Yes, ma'am. Mr Blair.
35
00:03:18,084 --> 00:03:20,084
By a landslide.
36
00:03:23,250 --> 00:03:25,250
Oh, I see.
37
00:03:26,792 --> 00:03:29,459
(Man) 'They've stopped the traffic
completely
38
00:03:29,542 --> 00:03:33,000

00:03:35,667 --> 00:03:38,125
'and you've got a lovely summer's day.

00:03:38,250 --> 00:03:42,292
"Tony Blair waving to the crowds,
people waving to them there.

'I guess they know it's
the Prime Minister on the streets.'
43
00:03:46,625 --> 00:03:48,625
(Soft knocking)
44
00:03:51,667 --> 00:03:54,250
The Prime Minister is on his way,
ma'am.
45
00:03:54,375 --> 00:03:57,000
To be, Robin. The Prime Minister to be.
46
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,000
I haven't asked him yet.
47
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,667
He's a hard one to read, isn't he?
48
00:04:03,792 --> 00:04:07,625
Yes. On the one hand,
his background is quite establishment -
49
00:04:07,750 --> 00:04:10,542
father a Conservative,
educated at Fettes.
50
00:04:10,667 --> 00:04:13,459
He had the same tutor
as the Prince of Wales.
51
00:04:13,542 --> 00:04:16,250
We'll try not to hold that against him.
52
00:04:16,375 --> 00:04:18,750
On the other, his manifesto promises
53
00:04:18,875 --> 00:04:22,875
the most radical shake-up
of the constitution in 300 years.
54
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:27,167
- Think he'll try to modernise us?
- I wouldn't put it past him.
55
00:04:27,292 --> 00:04:30,459
His wife has
anti-monarchist sympathies.
56
00:04:30,542 --> 00:04:34,042
You may remember her curtsy
the first time you met.
57
00:04:34,167 --> 00:04:36,834
It could best be described as shallow.
58
00:04:36,959 --> 00:04:40,709
(Chuckles) I don't measure
the depth of a curtsy, Robin.
59
00:04:40,834 --> 00:04:42,834
I leave that to my sister.
60
00:04:42,959 --> 00:04:45,959
Downing Street
is expected to be informal -
61
00:04:46,084 --> 00:04:50,542
everyone on first-name terms,
at the Prime Minister's insistence.
62
00:04:50,667 --> 00:04:53,084
- What, "Call me Tony"?
- Yes, ma'am.
63
00:04:53,209 --> 00:04:57,042
Oh, I don't like that.
Have we sent him a protocol sheet?
64
00:05:06,792 --> 00:05:11,084
- Funny, I'm actually rather nervous.
- Why? You've met her before.
65
00:05:11,209 --> 00:05:15,542
I know, but never one to one,
and never as Prime Minister.
66
00:05:15,625 --> 00:05:20,500
Well, remember, you're a man
that's just been elected by the nation.
67
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,792
But she's still, you know,
68
00:05:24,917 --> 00:05:26,709
the Queen.
69
00:05:32,334 --> 00:05:34,500
The audience room is upstairs.
70
00:05:37,625 --> 00:05:40,667
When we reach the audience room,
I will knock.
71
00:05:40,792 --> 00:05:43,459
We shall go straight inside.
72
00:05:43,542 --> 00:05:46,417
Standing by the door, we bow,
from the neck.
73
00:05:46,542 --> 00:05:49,875
I will introduce you.
The Queen will extend her hand.
74
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,000
You go to her, bow again,
then shake her hand.
75
00:05:55,459 --> 00:05:57,459
A couple of other things -
76
00:05:57,542 --> 00:05:59,542
it's ma'am as in ham,
77
00:05:59,667 --> 00:06:02,167
not ma'am as in farm.
78
00:06:03,542 --> 00:06:07,667
When you're in the presence,
at no point must you show your back.
79
00:06:07,792 --> 00:06:09,792
- The presence?
- Yes, sir.
80
00:06:09,917 --> 00:06:13,917
That's what it's called
when you're in Her Majesty's company.
81
00:06:18,084 --> 00:06:20,750
Would you like to sit there, Mrs Blair?
82
00:06:33,917 --> 00:06:36,125
(Indistinct murmuring)
83
00:06:36,250 --> 00:06:38,584
How nice to see you again, Mr Blair.
84
00:06:39,584 --> 00:06:42,084
- And congratulations.
- Thank you.
85
00:06:42,209 --> 00:06:44,917
- Your children must be proud.
- I hope so.
86
00:06:45,042 --> 00:06:48,209
- You've three, haven't you?
- That's right.
87
00:06:48,334 --> 00:06:51,250
Such a blessing, children.
Do sit down.
88
00:06:51,375 --> 00:06:53,167
Thank you.
89
00:07:02,375 --> 00:07:05,667
Have we shown you
how to start a nuclear war yet?
90
00:07:05,792 --> 00:07:10,000
- Er...no.
- Oh. First thing we do, apparently.
91
00:07:10,125 --> 00:07:14,084
Then we take away your passport
and send you round the world.
92
00:07:14,209 --> 00:07:16,959
You obviously know my job
better than I do.
93
00:07:17,084 --> 00:07:21,292
Yes, well, you are
my tenth prime minister, Mr Blair.
94
00:07:21,417 --> 00:07:23,625
My first was Winston Churchill.
95
00:07:23,750 --> 00:07:26,917
He sat in your chair
in a frock coat and top hat.
96
00:07:27,042 --> 00:07:31,334
He was kind enough to give a young girl
like me quite an education.
97
00:07:31,459 --> 00:07:33,542
I can imagine.
98
00:07:33,667 --> 00:07:37,542
With time, one has hopefully added
experience and wisdom,
99
00:07:37,667 --> 00:07:42,334
better enabling us to execute
our constitutional responsibility,
100
00:07:42,459 --> 00:07:47,084
to advise, guide and warn
the government of the day.
101
00:07:47,209 --> 00:07:50,625
Advice which ll...
look forward to receiving.
102
00:07:50,750 --> 00:07:54,542
Yes. We'll save that
for our weekly meetings.
103
00:07:54,625 --> 00:07:59,292
If there's nothing else, I believe
we have some business to attend to.
104
00:08:01,084 --> 00:08:03,084
Of course.
105
00:08:04,292 --> 00:08:07,375
Your Majesty,
my party has won the election,
106
00:08:07,500 --> 00:08:10,125
and so I ask your permission
to form a...
107
00:08:10,250 --> 00:08:12,959
No, Mr Blair. I ask the question.
108
00:08:15,542 --> 00:08:18,084
The duty falls upon me, as sovereign,
109
00:08:18,209 --> 00:08:22,917
to invite you to become Prime Minister
and to form a government in my name.
110
00:08:25,084 --> 00:08:28,625
And if you agree,
the custom is to say yes.
111
00:08:29,667 --> 00:08:31,667
Yes.
112
00:08:38,375 --> 00:08:40,375
(Bell jingles)
113
00:08:52,459 --> 00:08:54,459
Mrs Blair, lovely to see you again.
114
00:08:55,750 --> 00:08:59,000
And congratulations.
You must be very proud.
115
00:08:59,125 --> 00:09:01,709
-Yes.
- And exhausted, I imagine.
116
00:09:01,834 --> 00:09:04,667
- Where will you spend the summer?
- France.
117
00:09:04,792 --> 00:09:07,042
- Lovely.
- You'll be in Balmoral?
118
00:09:07,167 --> 00:09:09,250
Yes. Wonderful place.
119
00:09:09,375 --> 00:09:12,250
My great, great grandmother,
Victoria said,
120
00:09:12,375 --> 00:09:15,125
"In Balmoral, all seems to breathe
freedom and peace
121
00:09:15,250 --> 00:09:17,917
"and make one forget the world
and its sad turmoils."
122
00:09:18,042 --> 00:09:20,667
- Your Majesty...
- Oh, excuse me.
123
00:09:23,084 --> 00:09:25,792
- (Whispering)
- No. Really?
124
00:09:25,917 --> 00:09:27,917
(Indistinct whispering)
125
00:09:28,042 --> 00:09:30,042
Oh. Yes, of course.
126
00:09:31,209 --> 00:09:34,792
I'm so sorry.
We're going to have to leave it there.
127
00:09:47,334 --> 00:09:49,334
Not too short, was it, 15 minutes?
128
00:09:49,459 --> 00:09:51,542
- One doesn't want to be rude.
- No, ma'am.
129
00:09:55,209 --> 00:09:57,209
Morning.
130
00:09:57,334 --> 00:10:01,084
- "Thanks for coming. Now, fuck off."
- What was that about?
131
00:10:01,209 --> 00:10:04,250
God knows.
It'll be something to do with Diana.
132
00:10:04,375 --> 00:10:04,417
(Woman) 'Princess Diana
embroiled in controversy
133
00:10:04,417 --> 00:10:07,875
(Woman) 'Princess Diana
embroiled in controversy
134
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,625

Princess Diana moved to mend relations

00:10:15,167 --> 00:10:18,542
Princess Diana attended
a memorial service

Gianni Versace.

...was embroiled

140
00:10:28,625 --> 00:10:31,209
I am not a political figure.
141
00:10:31,334 --> 00:10:34,667
Princess Diana sailed
out into the Mediterranean
142
00:10:34,792 --> 00:10:37,750
in one of Mr Mohamed Al Fayed's
yachts today.
143
00:10:37,875 --> 00:10:40,709
- With his son.
- ...quarter of a million pounds
144
00:10:40,834 --> 00:10:44,709
for photographs which appear
to show the couple embracing.
145
00:10:45,709 --> 00:10:49,459
Once again,
her judgement's under scrutiny.
146
00:11:06,417 --> 00:11:09,292
(Indistinct chatter)

(Speaks German)

00:11:19,542 --> 00:11:22,084
Earlier today, they visited the...

00:11:26,584 --> 00:11:29,125
(Engines rev)
151
00:12:32,125 --> 00:12:35,125
(Telephone rings)
152
00:12:46,209 --> 00:12:48,209
Robin Janvrin.
153
00:12:51,292 --> 00:12:52,875
What?
154
00:12:59,292 --> 00:13:02,292
(Indistinct chatter)
155
00:13:07,667 --> 00:13:10,209
Tell Sir Guy I want everyone in ASAP.
156
00:13:18,417 --> 00:13:20,417
(Knocking)
157
00:13:21,209 --> 00:13:24,084
Ma'am? Ma'am?
158
00:13:26,167 --> 00:13:29,459
- Yes?
- Ma'am, Mr Janvrin is here to see you.
159
00:13:30,375 --> 00:13:32,084
What?
160
00:13:33,084 --> 00:13:35,084
Oh.
161
00:13:41,667 --> 00:13:43,667
Good evening ma'am.
162
00:13:43,792 --> 00:13:48,709
I'm sorry to disturb, but I've just had
a call from our embassy in Paris.
163
00:13:48,834 --> 00:13:52,709
- It's the Princess of Wales.
- Why? What's she done now?
164
00:13:54,292 --> 00:13:58,000
I see. Er...
Who are we speaking to there?
165
00:13:59,292 --> 00:14:01,417
Right, well, keep me updated.
166
00:14:04,834 --> 00:14:08,375
It's Diana.
She's been in a car accident in Paris.
167
00:14:08,500 --> 00:14:10,792
Is it serious?
168
00:14:10,917 --> 00:14:13,625
Apparently Dodi Fayed is dead.
169
00:14:13,750 --> 00:14:17,375
"Let's recap on the details
of those injuries, Maxine.'
170
00:14:17,500 --> 00:14:21,417
'They're saying the Princess is in
the intensive care unit
171
00:14:21,542 --> 00:14:23,542
'of a southeast Paris hospital.
172
00:14:23,625 --> 00:14:27,584
- 'She has concussion, a broken arm...'
- Why was she in Paris?
173
00:14:27,709 --> 00:14:30,959
- I thought she was in London.
- You know what she's like.
174
00:14:34,292 --> 00:14:36,542
Charles, isn't this awful?
175
00:14:38,875 --> 00:14:42,875
- What will you do about the boys?
- Let them sleep until we know more.
176
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,084
- Yes, that's sensible.
- I should go to Paris.
177
00:14:46,209 --> 00:14:48,417
I told my people to organise a jet.
178
00:14:49,625 --> 00:14:51,834
- What, a private one?
- Yes.
179
00:14:51,959 --> 00:14:55,500
Isn't that the sort of extravagance
they attack us for?
180
00:14:55,584 --> 00:14:59,125
(Charles) How else can I get to Paris
at this time of night?
181
00:14:59,250 --> 00:15:02,542
Charles, dear, use the royal flight.
182
00:15:02,667 --> 00:15:05,959
They keep one plane
on permanent standby
183
00:15:06,084 --> 00:15:08,084
in case I should kick the bucket.
184
00:15:08,209 --> 00:15:11,542
No, Mummy, he can't.
This isn't a matter of state.
185
00:15:11,625 --> 00:15:13,625
What are you talking about?
186
00:15:13,750 --> 00:15:17,250
Diana is not one of the royal family.
She's not an HRH.
187
00:15:17,375 --> 00:15:21,167
- It's a private matter.
- She's mother to your grandchildren.
188
00:15:21,292 --> 00:15:23,292
What is happening now?
189
00:15:23,417 --> 00:15:27,417
I don't know. I can't hear.
Everyone's shouting.
190
00:15:33,959 --> 00:15:37,792
- Thanks for coming in.
- The ambassador from Paris.
191
00:15:39,709 --> 00:15:41,542
Good evening, sir.
192
00:15:52,542 --> 00:15:54,125
(Knocking)
193
00:15:54,250 --> 00:15:56,250
Yes?
194
00:16:00,042 --> 00:16:03,750
I've just spoken
to our ambassador in Paris, ma'am.
195
00:16:03,875 --> 00:16:05,959
I'm afraid it's not good news.
196
00:16:06,084 --> 00:16:08,084
No!
197
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:11,792
No...
198
00:16:12,834 --> 00:16:14,917
No. No. No.
199
00:16:17,709 --> 00:16:19,709
No.
200
00:16:22,459 --> 00:16:26,625
Diana, Princess of Wales, has died
after a car crash in Paris.
201
00:16:26,750 --> 00:16:30,542
The French government announced
her death this morning.
202
00:16:30,625 --> 00:16:35,709
- What have I got on this week?
- Writing your conference speeches.
203
00:16:35,834 --> 00:16:38,250
Well, let's cancel everything else.
204
00:16:39,250 --> 00:16:41,917
This is going to be massive.
205
00:16:42,042 --> 00:16:45,042
(TV) 'Her death was confirmed
by the French...!
206
00:16:45,167 --> 00:16:50,292
- I'll make a statement in the morning.
- I've started coming up with ideas.
207
00:16:51,250 --> 00:16:54,959
- She's only been dead an hour.
- Would you prefer I didn't?
208
00:17:10,667 --> 00:17:13,667
(Charles whispers)
Try and be very brave.
209
00:17:15,084 --> 00:17:17,084
It's Mummy. She's dead.
210
00:17:24,542 --> 00:17:26,875
They're going to go back to sleep.
211
00:17:28,584 --> 00:17:30,584
Try, anyway.
212
00:17:40,959 --> 00:17:45,709
My private secretary's office have
found a travel agency in New York
213
00:17:45,834 --> 00:17:50,917
that will sell me a flight to Paris
with an hour's stopover in Manchester.
214
00:17:53,459 --> 00:17:56,834
Perhaps you might consider
if it's an extravagance
215
00:17:56,959 --> 00:18:02,417
to bring back the mother of the future
king of England in one of our planes.
216
00:18:02,542 --> 00:18:04,542
All right. Of course.
217
00:18:12,292 --> 00:18:14,292
(Door shuts)
218
00:18:18,750 --> 00:18:22,167
John, I don't want the boys
to see the news and get upset.
219
00:18:22,292 --> 00:18:26,375
Take the radio from the bedroom
and the TV from the nursery.
220
00:18:26,500 --> 00:18:28,292
Yes, ma'am.
221
00:18:35,209 --> 00:18:38,000
- Well, well, well.
- Yes.
222
00:18:39,834 --> 00:18:41,959
Are you all right?
223
00:18:42,084 --> 00:18:43,875
(Sighs)
224
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,042
Your sister called, from Tuscany.
225
00:18:47,167 --> 00:18:50,334
I hope you told her
to cut her holiday short.
226
00:18:50,459 --> 00:18:53,292
- 1 did.
- I can't imagine she was pleased.
227
00:18:53,417 --> 00:18:57,834
- That's putting it mildly.
- What did she say?
228
00:18:57,959 --> 00:19:01,542
Something about Diana being more
annoying dead than alive.
229
00:19:01,625 --> 00:19:04,417
Never let the boys hear you talk
like that.
230
00:19:04,542 --> 00:19:06,750
Of course.
231
00:19:10,334 --> 00:19:12,417
Something to help you go down?
232
00:19:12,542 --> 00:19:15,834
No, I think I'll write my diary
a little longer.
233
00:19:17,209 --> 00:19:19,875
Fine. I'm going to bed.
234
00:19:22,459 --> 00:19:24,292
(Door shuts)
235
00:19:51,875 --> 00:19:55,084
(Man) 'We've heard nothing official
from the palace.
236
00:19:55,209 --> 00:19:58,500
"We don't know when we'll get
any statements from the palace
237
00:19:58,625 --> 00:20:00,625
'or when the royal family are due !
238
00:20:00,709 --> 00:20:06,792
That's how she will remain,
in our minds, our hearts, forever.
239
00:20:08,125 --> 00:20:11,625
- OK? Got it.
- (Alastair) 'Where will you do it?'
240
00:20:11,750 --> 00:20:15,417
- At the church, on the way in.
- I'll organise it.
241
00:20:15,542 --> 00:20:18,334
(TV) Viscount Althorp, Diana's brother...
242
00:20:18,459 --> 00:20:20,792
Hang on. I want to watch this.
243
00:20:22,917 --> 00:20:26,459
(Althorp) 'This is not a time
for recriminations, but for sadness.
244
00:20:26,584 --> 00:20:31,292
'However, I would say I always believed
the press would Kill her in the end.
245
00:20:31,417 --> 00:20:35,417
"Not even I imagined they would take
such a direct hand in her death
246
00:20:35,542 --> 00:20:38,042
'as seems to be the case.
247
00:20:38,167 --> 00:20:42,667
'It would appear that every proprietor
and editor of every publication
248
00:20:42,792 --> 00:20:47,459
that paid for intrusive photographs
of her has blood on his hands today.
249
00:20:47,584 --> 00:20:51,375
Not the press, mate.
You've got the wrong villain.
250
00:20:51,500 --> 00:20:53,292
Tony...
251
00:20:53,417 --> 00:20:56,375
- Oh. Got to go.
- You about to speak to the Queen?
252
00:20:56,500 --> 00:20:59,667
- Yeah.
- Ask her if she greased the brakes.
253
00:20:59,792 --> 00:21:01,959
Now, now.
254
00:21:03,209 --> 00:21:05,209
Thanks.
255
00:21:12,667 --> 00:21:15,750
- Hello?
- (Woman) 'Putting you through.'
256
00:21:15,875 --> 00:21:18,792
Oh... Right, OK.
257
00:21:19,917 --> 00:21:23,375
- Is the Prince of Wales with the boys?
- Yes, ma'am.
258
00:21:23,500 --> 00:21:27,167
- Good. And he's going to Paris?
- Yes.
259
00:21:31,375 --> 00:21:34,709
I'm sorry to disturb, ma'am...
Ma'am...
260
00:21:34,834 --> 00:21:38,709
...out I have the Prime Minister
for you, from his constituency.
261
00:21:38,834 --> 00:21:40,875
Lucky you.
262
00:21:42,209 --> 00:21:45,292
Thank you, Robin.
I'll take it in the study.
263
00:21:54,834 --> 00:21:57,250
- (Tony) "Your Majesty.
- Prime Minister.
264
00:21:57,375 --> 00:22:01,250
May I say how very sorry I am.
265
00:22:01,375 --> 00:22:05,375
The thoughts and prayers of my family
are with you at this terrible time,
266
00:22:05,500 --> 00:22:07,500
and with the princes in particular.
267
00:22:07,625 --> 00:22:10,042
Thank you.
268
00:22:10,167 --> 00:22:15,500
(Tony) 'Is it your intention to make
some kind of appearance or statement?'
269
00:22:15,625 --> 00:22:18,542
No. No, certainly not.
270
00:22:19,750 --> 00:22:24,375
No-one in the royal family will speak
publicly. This is a private matter.
271
00:22:24,500 --> 00:22:27,500
We would appreciate it
if it could be respected as such.
272
00:22:27,625 --> 00:22:29,625
I see.
273
00:22:31,959 --> 00:22:35,542
I don't suppose
anyone's thought about the funeral.
274
00:22:35,625 --> 00:22:39,834
We've spoken with the Spencer family,
and it is their express wish
275
00:22:39,959 --> 00:22:44,709
that this should be a private funeral
with a memorial service to follow.
276
00:22:44,834 --> 00:22:46,209
Right.
277
00:22:46,334 --> 00:22:49,459
As Diana was no longer
a member of the royal family,
278
00:22:49,584 --> 00:22:51,584
we must respect their wishes.
279
00:22:52,792 --> 00:22:54,209
I see.
280
00:22:54,334 --> 00:23:01,125
You don't feel that in view
of her high profile and popularity,"
281
00:23:01,250 --> 00:23:06,042
it might be an idea to pay tribute
to her life and achievements,
282
00:23:06,167 --> 00:23:08,959
or even just to her as a mother?
283
00:23:09,084 --> 00:23:12,209
Well, as I said,
it's her family's wish.
284
00:23:12,334 --> 00:23:16,667
And the public, ma'am,
the British people?
285
00:23:16,792 --> 00:23:20,459
"You don't think
that might be denying them a chance...!
286
00:23:20,584 --> 00:23:22,917
A chance to what?
287
00:23:23,042 --> 00:23:25,042
(Tony) 'To share in the grief?'
288
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:31,209
This is a family funeral, Mr Blair,
not a fairground attraction.
289
00:23:31,334 --> 00:23:35,042
I think the Princess has already paid
a high enough price
290
00:23:35,167 --> 00:23:38,000
for exposure to the press, don't you?
291
00:23:38,125 --> 00:23:42,375
If there's nothing else,
the children have to be looked after.
292
00:23:42,500 --> 00:23:45,375
- Of course. Goodbye, Your Ma...
- (Hangs up)
293
00:23:55,375 --> 00:23:57,959
Her instinct is to do nothing,
294
00:23:58,084 --> 00:24:01,459
say nothing,
and give her a private funeral.
295
00:24:01,584 --> 00:24:04,875
Are you surprised? She hated her guts.
296
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,334
I think it's a mistake.
297
00:24:07,459 --> 00:24:10,625
They screwed up her life.
I hope they don't screw up her death.
298
00:24:10,709 --> 00:24:12,709
Where can I get a black tie?
299
00:24:14,042 --> 00:24:16,042
Oh, the chaplain called.
300
00:24:16,167 --> 00:24:19,625
He asked if he should make
any changes in the service,
301
00:24:19,750 --> 00:24:21,750
any special mention of Diana.
302
00:24:21,875 --> 00:24:23,875
What did you say?
303
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,125
- 1 fold him not to change a thing.
- Quite right.
304
00:24:27,250 --> 00:24:30,959
The less attention drawn to it,
the better, for the boys.
305
00:24:31,084 --> 00:24:32,667
Yes.
306
00:24:32,792 --> 00:24:36,500
We should find some company
for them, some young people.
307
00:24:36,625 --> 00:24:39,709
I'll take them for a long walk
up Craggy Head.
308
00:24:39,834 --> 00:24:42,542
Yes, but no guns, Philip. It is Sunday.
309
00:24:45,417 --> 00:24:52,250
We're going, I believe, to Sedgefield,
the Prime Minister's constituency,
310
00:24:52,375 --> 00:24:54,959
where he is about to make a statement.
311
00:24:55,084 --> 00:25:00,584
'Yes, the Prime Minister coming now
with his wife, Cherie."
312
00:25:00,667 --> 00:25:02,667
Yeah, well, apart from that?
313
00:25:02,792 --> 00:25:05,334
He's on. Alastair, he's on! Come on!
314
00:25:05,459 --> 00:25:11,709
'Though her own life
was often sadly touched by tragedy,
315
00:25:11,834 --> 00:25:16,500
'she touched the lives of so many others'
316
00:25:16,625 --> 00:25:20,625
in Britain and throughout the world..
317
00:25:21,625 --> 00:25:24,750
...with joy and with comfort.

not just here in Britain, everywhere,

'...in our hearts
and in our memories...forever.'
326
00:26:02,667 --> 00:26:05,834
A bit over the top, don't you think?
327
00:26:05,959 --> 00:26:10,167
(TV) 'The Prime Minister, paying
his tribute to the Princess of Wales.'
328
00:26:10,292 --> 00:26:15,625
The people of Britain, he said,
kept faith with Princess Diana.
329
00:26:15,750 --> 00:26:18,959
They loved her.
She was the people's princess.
330

- Do we have the Royal Standard?
- Yes, sir.
331

- And flowers?
- Yes, sir.
332
00:26:33,334 --> 00:26:38,250
If we left it to the royal undertakers,
they'd bring her back in a crate.

May I speak to the Prime Minister?'

One moment, please. Lord Airlie.

00:27:42,417 --> 00:27:45,334
- Lord Airlie.
- Good afternoon, Prime Minister.
340
00:27:45,459 --> 00:27:49,167
It's my job to organise
all the ceremonial events.
341
00:27:49,292 --> 00:27:52,500
There's no precedent
for the funeral of an ex-HRH.
342
00:27:52,625 --> 00:27:56,042
Perhaps we should plan
for any contingency.
343
00:27:56,167 --> 00:28:00,500
I propose a meeting tomorrow morning
at Buckingham Palace,
344
00:28:00,625 --> 00:28:05,000
'officials from all three palaces,
representatives of the Spencer family,
345
00:28:05,125 --> 00:28:07,875
the emergency services
and your people.
346
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,000
Absolutely. Of course.
347
00:28:11,625 --> 00:28:13,625
(Phone beeps)
348
00:28:14,709 --> 00:28:17,875
Precedent?
Where do they find these people?
349
00:28:24,542 --> 00:28:26,542
Thank you.
350
00:28:30,834 --> 00:28:32,834
Brigadier Sir Charles Wood.
351
00:28:35,500 --> 00:28:37,500
Air Commodore Wessex.
352
00:28:42,542 --> 00:28:45,500
- Prime Minister.
- I'm so sorry, sir.
353
00:28:45,625 --> 00:28:48,375
If there's anything
I or my government can do...
354
00:28:48,500 --> 00:28:52,834
They stood up as we drove past,
in cafes, in restaurants,
355
00:28:52,959 --> 00:28:55,459
removed their hats.
356
00:28:55,584 --> 00:28:58,792
This was Paris,
and you could hear a pin drop.
357
00:28:58,917 --> 00:29:03,417
- I imagine it will be the same here.
- The palace prefers a private funeral.
358
00:29:03,542 --> 00:29:06,584
- What are your feelings on that?
-1...
359
00:29:09,625 --> 00:29:13,459
I think that'll present us
with difficulties.
360
00:29:13,584 --> 00:29:15,584
Sodo ll
361
00:29:15,667 --> 00:29:21,167
My mother... The Queen comes
from a generation not best equipped.
362
00:29:21,292 --> 00:29:23,292
She grew up in the war.
363
00:29:23,417 --> 00:29:26,459
I think what we need,
what this country needs,
364
00:29:26,584 --> 00:29:30,292
is a more modern perspective,
if you follow.
365
00:29:30,417 --> 00:29:34,542
- Balmoral is...
- I think I understand.
366
00:29:39,375 --> 00:29:43,834
(Man) 'An aircraft of the Queen's Flight
brought the Princess's body home,
367
00:29:43,959 --> 00:29:48,209
'where the Prime Minister gathered
with members of his government.
368
00:29:48,334 --> 00:29:50,625
'A black hearse crossed the Tarmac
369
00:29:50,709 --> 00:29:54,209
'and a Royal Air Force guard of honour
moved forward."
370
00:29:54,334 --> 00:29:58,917
Has anyone heard from the Spencers?
Did they say when the funeral will be?
371
00:30:00,084 --> 00:30:04,209
Hmm? I don't know.
Nobody tells me anything.
372
00:30:04,334 --> 00:30:07,500
(Man) 'President Clinton
heard the news last night.'
373
00:30:07,625 --> 00:30:09,125
'We liked her very much.
374
00:30:09,250 --> 00:30:14,334
'We admired her work for children,
for people with AIDS
375
00:30:14,459 --> 00:30:17,125
'for ending the scourge
of land mines...
376
00:30:17,250 --> 00:30:22,167
On our walk today, one of the gillies
said he'd seen a stag up Craggy Head.
377
00:30:23,167 --> 00:30:26,042
- He reckoned 14 points.
- Oh.
378
00:30:26,167 --> 00:30:30,792
We haven't had one
as big as that on the estate for years.
379
00:30:30,917 --> 00:30:32,917
No. Quite.
380
00:30:35,042 --> 00:30:38,000
'...and I was tremendously impressed...
381
00:30:38,125 --> 00:30:41,834
Anyway, I thought
it might be a good distraction.
382
00:30:41,959 --> 00:30:44,334
- For the boys.
- What, stalking?
383
00:30:45,334 --> 00:30:49,334
- You don't think it's too soon?
- Anything that gets them out is good.
384
00:30:52,250 --> 00:30:54,667
(Man) '...as their relationship
deteriorated,
385
00:30:54,792 --> 00:30:57,417
'she became increasingly unhappy.
386
00:30:57,542 --> 00:31:00,500
'The couple divorced
in August of last year.
387
00:31:00,625 --> 00:31:03,625
(Crowds cheering on TV)
388
00:31:04,625 --> 00:31:08,125
(Man) 'Their love story
brought crowds into the streets.
389
00:31:08,250 --> 00:31:11,042
'They came to see the Queen
and the Prince,
390
00:31:11,167 --> 00:31:13,875
'but most of all,
they came to see Diana.'
391
00:31:15,209 --> 00:31:19,459
- I'm going to bed.
- (Man) 'But the fairytale was destined...
392
00:31:37,959 --> 00:31:40,625
I'll ring the Lord Chamberlain's office
393
00:31:40,709 --> 00:31:44,167
to say we'll send representatives
to the meeting.
394
00:31:44,292 --> 00:31:46,292
Thank you, Stephen.
395
00:31:57,459 --> 00:32:00,125
She gave us so much.
396
00:32:00,250 --> 00:32:04,417
Why couldn't we have given her
something and left her alone?
397
00:32:05,667 --> 00:32:08,459
It just...hurts me so much.
398
00:32:08,584 --> 00:32:11,417
I've never experienced
anything like this.
399
00:32:11,542 --> 00:32:13,959
I wait to wake up,
like it's a bad dream.
400
00:32:26,709 --> 00:32:28,709
(Gavel bangs)
401
00:32:28,834 --> 00:32:31,417
Right, it's ten o'clock.
Let's get started.
402
00:32:31,542 --> 00:32:34,959
Thank you all for coming
at such short notice.
403
00:32:35,084 --> 00:32:38,625
I think we all agree that this is
a sensitive occasion,
404
00:32:38,750 --> 00:32:41,959
which presents us
with tremendous challenges -
405
00:32:42,084 --> 00:32:47,334
logistically, constitutionally,
practically,
406
00:32:47,459 --> 00:32:51,000
diplomatically and procedurally.
407
00:32:51,709 --> 00:32:53,709
(Whispers) Oh, Christ.
408
00:32:59,417 --> 00:33:03,375
After 18 years of opposition,
I am proud to stand before you
409
00:33:03,500 --> 00:33:05,542
as the new Prime Minister...
410
00:33:05,625 --> 00:33:07,792
Labour Prime Minister.
411
00:33:07,917 --> 00:33:11,084
I want to set an course
to modernise this country,
412
00:33:11,209 --> 00:33:14,084
to breathe new life
into old institutions,
413
00:33:14,209 --> 00:33:17,792
to make privilege
something for the many, not the few.
414
00:33:17,917 --> 00:33:22,459
You think the royals are nutters?
You should meet their flunkies.
415
00:33:22,584 --> 00:33:26,834
Two and a half hours to choose
between a hearse or a gun carriage.
416
00:33:26,959 --> 00:33:31,625
You got raves in the press. This calls
you "The nation's mourner in chief."
417
00:33:31,750 --> 00:33:35,000
This lot says you correctly judged
the country's mood.
418
00:33:35,125 --> 00:33:37,792
- Hello?
- Even The Mail was impressed.
419
00:33:39,584 --> 00:33:42,167
People's princess, mate. You owe me.
420
00:33:45,292 --> 00:33:47,917
- Gordon for you.
- Tell him to hang on.
421
00:33:48,042 --> 00:33:49,834
Alastair...
422
00:33:50,959 --> 00:33:54,250
- Is it going to be a public funeral?
- Yeah. Saturday.
423
00:33:54,375 --> 00:33:58,042
- It's a whopper. The Abbey, the works.
- Great.
424
00:33:58,167 --> 00:34:01,250
- Has anyone told the Queen?
- I don't know.
425
00:34:01,375 --> 00:34:05,500
No doubt some flunky will be
dispatched, grovelling on all fours.
426
00:34:14,959 --> 00:34:17,959
Do you think it's wise
for the boys to go stalking?
427
00:34:18,084 --> 00:34:20,875
(Queen Mother) Anything
that gets them out is good.
428
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,084
Maybe they shouldn't take guns.
429
00:34:23,209 --> 00:34:26,959
If a photographer saw them,
it might send the wrong signal.
430
00:34:27,084 --> 00:34:32,292
If there is a photographer out there,
he could be the first kill of the day.
431
00:34:36,084 --> 00:34:38,875
I see Mr Fayed was buried last night.
432
00:34:39,875 --> 00:34:43,000
At midnight. No cameras, no fuss.
433
00:34:44,709 --> 00:34:46,709
Very dignified.
434
00:34:46,792 --> 00:34:50,875
Why do they do that? Why do they bury
the bodies so soon after death?
435
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,000
Islamic tradition.
436
00:34:53,875 --> 00:34:56,417
- Something to do with the heat.
- Mmm.
437
00:34:57,417 --> 00:34:59,417
It stops the body decomposing.
438
00:34:59,542 --> 00:35:01,542
- (Knocking)
- Come in.
439
00:35:04,125 --> 00:35:06,125
Good morning, ma'am. Ma'am.
440
00:35:06,250 --> 00:35:08,917
Yes, Robin? What can we do for you?
441
00:35:09,917 --> 00:35:13,959
Er...ma'am, there was a meeting
at the palace this morning.
442
00:35:14,084 --> 00:35:16,584
About the funeral arrangements. Yes.
443
00:35:16,709 --> 00:35:21,250
The Lord Chamberlain faxed these plans
for you to consider.
444
00:35:23,292 --> 00:35:26,042
There is now general agreement, ma'am,
445
00:35:26,167 --> 00:35:30,750
that a public funeral
would be more appropriate.
446
00:35:34,917 --> 00:35:36,750
I see.
447
00:35:37,875 --> 00:35:41,542
And what form will this funeral take?
448
00:35:41,667 --> 00:35:44,334
At the moment, they're suggesting...
449
00:35:44,459 --> 00:35:47,042
and, of course, these are early days,
450
00:35:47,167 --> 00:35:49,209
basing it on Tay Bridge.
451
00:35:50,542 --> 00:35:53,000
- Tay Bridge?
- What?
452
00:35:53,125 --> 00:35:56,209
Tay Bridge is the code name
for my funeral.
453
00:35:56,334 --> 00:35:58,334
Indeed, ma'am,
454
00:35:58,459 --> 00:36:01,542
but it would be
for practical reasons only.
455
00:36:02,834 --> 00:36:06,625
It's the only one
which has been rehearsed,
456
00:36:06,750 --> 00:36:10,375
the only one
that could be put together in time.
457
00:36:10,500 --> 00:36:14,084
But I supervised those plans myself.
458
00:36:14,209 --> 00:36:17,834
Indeed, and the Lord Chamberlain
was at pains to stress
459
00:36:17,959 --> 00:36:21,709
that the spirit of the occasion
will be quite different.
460
00:36:21,792 --> 00:36:26,125
For example, the suggestion is
that instead of 400 soldiers,
461
00:36:26,250 --> 00:36:33,042
400 representatives of the Princess's
charities march behind the coffin.
462
00:36:33,167 --> 00:36:37,834
And, instead of foreign heads of state
and crowned heads of Europe,
463
00:36:37,959 --> 00:36:43,625
the guests would include a sprinkling
of actors of stage and screen,
464
00:36:43,750 --> 00:36:48,667
fashion designers
and other...celebrities.
465
00:36:48,750 --> 00:36:50,417
Celebrities?
466
00:36:53,042 --> 00:36:54,834
Oh.
467
00:36:57,709 --> 00:36:59,834
Er...was there anything else?
468
00:37:01,417 --> 00:37:03,417
No, ma'am.
469
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,000
Oh, yes, one other thing.
470
00:37:08,125 --> 00:37:12,084
The police commissioner was keen
that you consider
471
00:37:12,209 --> 00:37:14,459
the idea of a condolence book.
472
00:37:14,584 --> 00:37:17,959
It would give the growing crowds
something to do,
473
00:37:18,084 --> 00:37:20,250
make marshalling them easier.
474
00:37:20,375 --> 00:37:22,375
Oh, yes. Yes, of course.
475
00:37:23,625 --> 00:37:27,917
- Oh, and the flowers.
- What flowers?
476
00:37:28,042 --> 00:37:30,709
The flowers outside Buckingham Palace.
477
00:37:30,792 --> 00:37:32,834
They're blocking the main gate,
478
00:37:32,959 --> 00:37:36,750
and making things difficult
for the changing of the guard.
479
00:37:36,875 --> 00:37:38,875
Fine. Just move them away.
480
00:37:40,250 --> 00:37:45,375
The Lord Chamberlain was wondering
whether we shouldn't leave the flowers
481
00:37:45,500 --> 00:37:48,584
and send the guards
through the north gate.
482
00:37:48,709 --> 00:37:50,709
Oh, yes. Yes, of course.
483
00:37:50,792 --> 00:37:52,792
Yes, quite right.
484
00:37:58,084 --> 00:37:59,750
(Knocking)
485
00:38:01,375 --> 00:38:03,500
Stephen Lamport on One.
486
00:38:03,625 --> 00:38:06,667
- Who?
- Prince of Wales's private secretary.
487
00:38:06,750 --> 00:38:09,167
- Balmoral.
- He says it's urgent.
488
00:38:11,875 --> 00:38:14,334
It's all right.
489
00:38:14,459 --> 00:38:17,667
- Good morning.
- Good morning, Prime Minister.
490
00:38:17,750 --> 00:38:21,959
The Prince of Wales has asked me
to thank you for your kind words.
491
00:38:22,084 --> 00:38:23,500
Not at all.
492
00:38:23,625 --> 00:38:29,417
The Prince feels that you and he
are both modern men
493
00:38:29,542 --> 00:38:31,542
of similar mind,
494
00:38:31,667 --> 00:38:36,167
who could work well together
at this difficult time.
495
00:38:36,292 --> 00:38:39,459
Er...well, please thank His Highness,
496
00:38:39,584 --> 00:38:42,792
and assure him
he can count on my full support...
497
00:38:44,167 --> 00:38:46,334
...at all times.
498
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,917
- Was that it?
- Er...yes.
499
00:38:51,917 --> 00:38:53,917
Goodbye.
500
00:39:00,250 --> 00:39:02,250
Bizarre.
501
00:39:03,750 --> 00:39:05,917
- Why is Charles doing this?
- What?
502
00:39:06,042 --> 00:39:10,250
Creeping up to me like this,
banging on about being modern.
503
00:39:10,375 --> 00:39:12,875
He did it at the airport.
504
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,334
He knows that if the Queen
gets it wrong over Diana,
505
00:39:16,459 --> 00:39:19,209
the royals will become
public enemy Number One.
506
00:39:19,334 --> 00:39:22,500
- He's terrified of being shot.
- Who, Charles?
507
00:39:22,625 --> 00:39:25,417
His people have asked
for extra protection.
508
00:39:25,542 --> 00:39:28,000
He thinks if he's seen
to be on our side,
509
00:39:28,125 --> 00:39:31,125
that will leave the Queen
in the firing line.
510
00:39:31,250 --> 00:39:35,000
So it's OK for his mother
to take the bullet and not him?
511
00:39:35,125 --> 00:39:37,125
What a family!
512
00:39:39,875 --> 00:39:42,709
- Wait. Where are they?
- Up at Craggy Hill.
513
00:39:47,334 --> 00:39:49,584
- I'll come with you.
- In you go.
514
00:39:49,709 --> 00:39:52,834
- Do you want me to drive?
- No. Certainly not.
515
00:39:56,459 --> 00:39:58,459
(Engine starts)
516
00:39:58,584 --> 00:40:03,792
- I thought you were getting a new one?
- What for? It's perfectly all right.
517
00:40:08,125 --> 00:40:10,834
I was thinking
what Diana might have done
518
00:40:10,959 --> 00:40:13,917
had it been me that died
in the tunnel in Paris.
519
00:40:14,042 --> 00:40:18,334
She would have taken the boys
to Paris. I regret not doing that.
520
00:40:18,459 --> 00:40:20,667
What, and expose them to the media?
521
00:40:20,750 --> 00:40:24,667
That would have been dreadful.
They're better off here.
522
00:40:24,750 --> 00:40:26,750
It's private. They're protected.
523
00:40:26,875 --> 00:40:30,750
Whatever you thought of Diana,
she was a wonderful mother.
524
00:40:30,834 --> 00:40:34,167
She adored those boys,
and never let them forget it.
525
00:40:34,292 --> 00:40:38,667
Always warm, physical,
never afraid to show her feelings.
526
00:40:38,750 --> 00:40:41,834
Especially if a photographer
was in sight.
527
00:40:41,959 --> 00:40:44,834
She may have encouraged all that,
but still...
528
00:40:44,959 --> 00:40:47,834
that was the extraordinary thing
about her -
529
00:40:47,959 --> 00:40:53,209
her weaknesses and transgressions
only made the public love her more.
530
00:40:53,334 --> 00:40:56,584
Yet ours only make them hate us.
Why do they hate us?
531
00:40:56,709 --> 00:40:59,459
- Not us, dear.
- What?
532
00:41:01,417 --> 00:41:04,584
Yesterday,
when we brought the coffin back,
533
00:41:04,709 --> 00:41:08,292
there was a noise, a bang,
and I thought it was a gun.
534
00:41:08,417 --> 00:41:11,834
I thought
someone had taken a shot at me.,
535
00:41:12,959 --> 00:41:15,792
I think I'm going to walk back.
536
00:41:15,917 --> 00:41:18,917
- I don't feel like stalking.
- Are you sure?
537
00:41:19,042 --> 00:41:20,917
I'll take the dogs.
538
00:41:21,042 --> 00:41:22,959
Walkies? Yes!
539
00:41:35,292 --> 00:41:37,542
(Dogs bark)
540
00:41:41,750 --> 00:41:44,000
Who knows the way home? Come on.
541
00:42:31,917 --> 00:42:34,917
(Man) 'Do you think
you will ever be queen?"
542
00:42:37,542 --> 00:42:39,542
No, I don't. No.
543
00:42:39,667 --> 00:42:41,667
Why do you think that?
544
00:42:43,417 --> 00:42:47,500
I'd like to be a queen
of people's hearts, in people's hearts,
545
00:42:47,625 --> 00:42:51,209
"but I don't see myself
being queen of this country.
546
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:55,042
'I don't think many people
want me to be queen.
547
00:42:55,167 --> 00:42:58,834
'By many people, I mean
the establishment I married into,
548
00:42:58,959 --> 00:43:03,500
"because they've decided
that I'm a non-starter.'
549
00:43:05,834 --> 00:43:09,125
Charles and I had a talk
in the car today.
550
00:43:10,750 --> 00:43:14,667
He was good enough
to share his thoughts on motherhood.
551
00:43:14,750 --> 00:43:18,667
- What did he say?
- How wonderful Diana was.
552
00:43:18,750 --> 00:43:20,875
That's changing his tune.
553
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,000
He thought her natural.
554
00:43:26,417 --> 00:43:29,209
(Diana) "They see me as a threat
of some kind"
555
00:43:29,334 --> 00:43:31,334
Oh, for God's sake!
556
00:43:32,375 --> 00:43:35,959
Maybe he's got a point.
Maybe we are partly to blame.
557
00:43:37,084 --> 00:43:39,250
On, I can't watch this.
558
00:43:40,292 --> 00:43:43,125
No, no. Wait. Please, no, leave it.
559
00:43:43,250 --> 00:43:47,834
(Diana) 'l don't go by a rule book.
I lead from the heart, not the head,
560
00:43:47,959 --> 00:43:50,667
'and I's got me into trouble
in my work.
561
00:43:50,750 --> 00:43:53,084
We encouraged the match.
562
00:43:53,209 --> 00:43:55,584
We signed off on it, both of us.
563
00:43:55,709 --> 00:43:58,709
You were very enthusiastic, remember?
564
00:43:58,792 --> 00:44:00,917
She was a nice girl. Then.
565
00:44:03,334 --> 00:44:06,167
And I was sure
he'd give the other one up,
566
00:44:06,292 --> 00:44:09,167
or at least make sure
his wife toed the line.
567
00:44:09,292 --> 00:44:12,292
- Isn't that what everyone does?
- Is it?
568
00:44:12,417 --> 00:44:17,459
(Man) 'Was Mrs Parker Bowles a factor
in the breakdown of your marriage?"
569
00:44:17,584 --> 00:44:22,084
'There were three of us in this
marriage, so it was a bit crowded.'
570
00:44:24,292 --> 00:44:28,750
I can't bear it. If you're watching,
I'll sleep next door.
571
00:44:28,834 --> 00:44:31,875
- Early start tomorrow.
- Any luck with your stag?
572
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:35,875
No. But close,
a couple of hundred yards at one point.
573
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,084
One of the boys even got a shot off.
574
00:44:41,167 --> 00:44:43,167
We'll get him tomorrow.
575
00:44:44,167 --> 00:44:46,417
See you in the morning.
576
00:44:47,375 --> 00:44:49,792
Not to worry. Night-night.
577
00:44:52,917 --> 00:44:56,292
(Man) '...and with her obsession
with the belief
578
00:44:56,417 --> 00:45:00,292
'that Charles loved a woman he'd fallen
for years before, Camilla...'
579
00:45:01,875 --> 00:45:03,709
Heaven
580
00:45:04,750 --> 00:45:07,125
Must be missing an angel
581
00:45:08,750 --> 00:45:10,834
Missing an angel, child
582
00:45:10,959 --> 00:45:13,875
Cos you're here with me right now...
583
00:45:17,125 --> 00:45:20,542
The good news is the palace agreed to
video screens.
584
00:45:20,667 --> 00:45:23,042
- And the bad news?
- Crash barriers.
585
00:45:23,167 --> 00:45:26,875
- What about them?
- They expect over two million people.
586
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,042
There aren't enough barriers,
587
00:45:29,167 --> 00:45:32,542
so we've gone cap in hand
to the French for theirs.
588
00:45:32,667 --> 00:45:35,750
There's something else
I think you should see.
589
00:45:35,834 --> 00:45:37,709
Can we run that piece again?
590
00:45:37,792 --> 00:45:40,292
- (Woman) Of course.
- You'll love this.
591
00:45:40,417 --> 00:45:43,959
- '...find their behaviour disgraceful.'
- (Man) 'what do you think?*
592
00:45:44,084 --> 00:45:49,084
'l think it's disgusting that they've
not said a word relating to all this.'
593
00:45:49,209 --> 00:45:51,625
- Look, I know all this.
- Wait for it.
594
00:45:51,750 --> 00:45:56,292
(Woman) '...not to have a flag up. I think
it's a disgrace on the royal family.'
595
00:45:56,417 --> 00:46:00,042
'OK, the Queen's not in residence,
but where is the flag?
596
00:46:00,167 --> 00:46:03,542
'Do you see what I'm saying
about the establishment?'
597
00:46:03,667 --> 00:46:07,917
Don't tell me there isn't a flag
at half mast over Buckingham Palace.
598
00:46:08,042 --> 00:46:13,125
'Dodi, when them two were together,
it was a fairy tale come true'
599
00:46:13,250 --> 00:46:17,042
Will someone please save these people
from themselves?
600
00:46:17,167 --> 00:46:19,875
- Fine, I'll call Balmoral.
- Planet Zog?
601
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,375
I've really got nothing better to do.
602
00:46:22,500 --> 00:46:24,500
Come on, dogs. Come on.
603
00:46:34,209 --> 00:46:37,209
Those fire lighters all right?
A bit damp?
604
00:46:39,584 --> 00:46:42,584
Oh, well,
I brought some stew just in case.
605
00:46:42,709 --> 00:46:46,667
- It's lamb. We can have that cold.
- No, we'll be all right.
606
00:46:47,459 --> 00:46:49,042
Stay.
607
00:46:51,250 --> 00:46:56,125
Robin had a call from the Prime
Minister, who expressed his concern.
608
00:46:56,250 --> 00:47:01,167
- About what?
- The flag above Buckingham Palace.
609
00:47:01,292 --> 00:47:04,417
He thinks it should be flying
at half mast.
610
00:47:04,542 --> 00:47:08,500
I hope Robin said there isn't a flag
above Buckingham Palace.
611
00:47:08,625 --> 00:47:13,750
There's the Royal Standard, which flies
to denote the presence of the monarch.
612
00:47:13,875 --> 00:47:18,209
Since you're here, the flagpole is bare,
just as it should be.
613
00:47:18,334 --> 00:47:24,584
Isn't it possible that for some people,
the Royal Standard is just a flag,
614
00:47:24,709 --> 00:47:29,417
and the flagpole being bare
sends out the wrong signal?
615
00:47:29,542 --> 00:47:34,084
- No, that's not the point.
- The point is it's over 400 years old.
616
00:47:34,209 --> 00:47:36,750
It's never been lowered for anyone.
617
00:47:36,834 --> 00:47:41,250
Your grandfather didn't get
the flat at half mast when he died,
618
00:47:41,375 --> 00:47:45,292
and if your mother died tomorrow,
she wouldn't either.
619
00:47:45,417 --> 00:47:49,500
Yes, Granny, but in a situation
like this, one has to be flexible.
620
00:47:49,625 --> 00:47:51,417
It is just a flag.
621
00:47:51,542 --> 00:47:55,375
"What about the Union Jack?"
was Mr Blair's next suggestion.
622
00:47:55,500 --> 00:47:57,709
For heaven's sake!
623
00:47:57,792 --> 00:48:01,250
Next, he'll suggest you
change your name to Hilda.
624
00:48:01,375 --> 00:48:05,584
Who does the think he's talking to?
You're the sovereign.
625
00:48:05,709 --> 00:48:10,084
You don't get dictated to. You conceded
the idea of a public funeral.
626
00:48:10,209 --> 00:48:12,917
You've opened the parks. That's enough.
627
00:48:13,042 --> 00:48:15,709
Ssh. The boys.
628
00:48:15,792 --> 00:48:20,000
You wait. In 48 hours,
this will all have calmed down.
629
00:48:20,125 --> 00:48:22,750
(Dogs bark)
630
00:48:52,875 --> 00:48:55,042
In one sense, it's comforting.
631
00:48:55,167 --> 00:48:58,542
Now, my parents can see
what it's been like for me,
632
00:48:58,667 --> 00:49:01,542
being up against her popularity.
633
00:49:01,667 --> 00:49:06,250
They're still making the mistake
of thinking the Diana they knew
634
00:49:06,375 --> 00:49:10,542
will eventually be the one
seen by the public, but it won't.
635
00:49:10,667 --> 00:49:15,959
The two Dianas, the public's and ours,
bear no relation to one another at all.
636
00:49:18,625 --> 00:49:22,209
The flag of St George,
it is at half mast over Highgrove?
637
00:49:22,334 --> 00:49:25,584
- Yes, sir.
- Get a picture of that in the papers.
638
00:49:25,709 --> 00:49:28,542
I'll get onto it,
call in a few favours.
639
00:49:28,667 --> 00:49:32,834
What about a statement of gratitude
to the crowds?
640
00:49:32,959 --> 00:49:36,417
Something heartfelt
from myself and the boys,
641
00:49:36,542 --> 00:49:39,542
thanking people for the flowers
and so on.
642
00:49:39,667 --> 00:49:41,042
Right.
643
00:49:41,167 --> 00:49:45,667
'Di was wonderful, because
she stood up to the establishment.
644
00:49:45,792 --> 00:49:50,625
'She said, "You're elitist people
we are paying to be better than us,
645
00:49:50,750 --> 00:49:53,584
and you have to get out
among the people."
646
00:49:53,709 --> 00:49:57,000
'We have a wonderful Prime Minister,
Tony Blair,
647
00:49:57,125 --> 00:50:02,542
"a compassionate young man, who, after
18 years of establishment Tory rule
648
00:50:02,667 --> 00:50:04,667
'is such a breath of fresh air,
649
00:50:04,750 --> 00:50:07,084
'and I feel he will do something...
650
00:50:07,209 --> 00:50:10,334
- (Cherie) Is this the stirrings of...
- What?
651
00:50:10,459 --> 00:50:14,125
I don't know.
Something more interesting.
652
00:50:14,250 --> 00:50:17,542
Maybe people will see them
for what they are.
653
00:50:17,667 --> 00:50:19,625
Which is?
654
00:50:19,750 --> 00:50:24,167
A bunch of freeloading,
emotionally retarded nutters.
655
00:50:26,500 --> 00:50:28,834
- That's just absurd.
- Why?
656
00:50:28,959 --> 00:50:32,584
They live in a cocoon of wealth
and they don't pay tax.
657
00:50:32,709 --> 00:50:36,542
- Yes, they do.
- The Queen costs us 40 million a year.
658
00:50:36,667 --> 00:50:40,667
If you want a serious conversation
about the constitution.
659
00:50:40,750 --> 00:50:42,792
We don't have one.
660
00:50:42,917 --> 00:50:47,375
About ways in which we could phase out
hereditary privileges, then fine.
661
00:50:47,500 --> 00:50:52,084
- If you're leaving, take the plates.
- Forget the 'off with their heads' bit.
662
00:50:52,209 --> 00:50:55,209
- Why?
- It insults your intelligence.
663
00:50:55,334 --> 00:50:58,292
'The Queen cannot be expected
to change.'
664
00:50:58,417 --> 00:51:01,750
It's unimaginable,
this country being a republic.
665
00:51:01,834 --> 00:51:04,375
- Certainly in her lifetime.
- Why?
666
00:51:04,500 --> 00:51:08,459
Because no-one would wear it.
No-one wants it.
667
00:51:08,584 --> 00:51:11,625
It's just...daft.
668
00:51:13,042 --> 00:51:17,125
- It's not a mother thing, is it?
- What?
669
00:51:17,250 --> 00:51:22,417
Well, if she were alive now,
your mother would be the same age.
670
00:51:23,459 --> 00:51:25,709
You always say how stoical she was -
671
00:51:25,792 --> 00:51:29,000
old-fashioned, uncomplaining,
lived through the war.
672
00:51:29,125 --> 00:51:33,167
- Who does that sound like?
- I'm going to do the washing up.
673
00:51:50,500 --> 00:51:53,209
That's the stalking party off.
674
00:51:53,334 --> 00:51:56,667
Right, we'd better have a look
at those papers.
675
00:51:58,042 --> 00:52:01,917
"Show us there's a heart in the house
of Windsor," says The Sun.
676
00:52:02,042 --> 00:52:05,834
"It's proof the royals
are not like us," The Mirror.
677
00:52:05,959 --> 00:52:10,334
"Time to change the old guard
at Buckingham Palace," Express.
678
00:52:11,500 --> 00:52:15,042
"One can't help wondering
whose advice they are taking,
679
00:52:15,167 --> 00:52:17,917
"“for it's clearly the wrong advice."
680
00:52:19,375 --> 00:52:22,000
I'll try not to take that personally.
681
00:52:23,292 --> 00:52:25,959
People have yearned for change
in this country.
682
00:52:26,084 --> 00:52:28,417
The result is a quiet revolution
683
00:52:28,542 --> 00:52:31,625
led by the real modernisers,
the British people.
684
00:52:31,750 --> 00:52:34,375
Revolution? Who wrote this?
685
00:52:35,917 --> 00:52:39,334
- Where does this come from?
- Where does it come from?
686
00:52:39,459 --> 00:52:43,042
- You've won a huge majority.
- People want a change.
687
00:52:45,459 --> 00:52:47,959
Why? What did you think it meant?
688
00:52:51,417 --> 00:52:53,792
Hurry, dear. Your tea's getting cold.
689
00:52:53,875 --> 00:52:55,875
- Is that it?
- Yes, ma'am.
690
00:52:56,000 --> 00:53:00,584
Just the letter of condolence to the
widow of the ambassador to Brazil.
691
00:53:01,750 --> 00:53:03,750
Thank you.
692
00:53:06,334 --> 00:53:08,334
Tea.
693
00:53:09,750 --> 00:53:14,042
(Whispers) Mr Janvrin, the Prime
Minister wishes to speak to Her Majesty.
694
00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:20,542
Ma'am,
695
00:53:20,667 --> 00:53:23,917
apparently the Prime Minister
is on the phone.
696
00:53:24,042 --> 00:53:26,792
Tell him to call back.
697
00:53:28,125 --> 00:53:30,667
No, no. It's all right. I'll take it.
698
00:53:39,459 --> 00:53:42,542
- Prime Minister.
- Good morning, Your Majesty.
699
00:53:42,667 --> 00:53:46,917
Sorry to disturb, but I was wondering
if you'd seen today's papers?
700
00:53:48,250 --> 00:53:50,875
We've managed to look
at one or two, yes.
701
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:55,375
(Tony) 'In which case, my next question
would be whether you felt
702
00:53:55,500 --> 00:53:57,500
'some kind of response
703
00:53:57,625 --> 00:54:00,334
'might be necessary?'
704
00:54:02,625 --> 00:54:05,417
No. I believe a few over-eager editors
705
00:54:05,542 --> 00:54:08,542
are doing their best
to sell newspapers.
706
00:54:08,667 --> 00:54:11,750
It would be a mistake
to dance to their tune.
707
00:54:11,875 --> 00:54:15,084
(Tony) 'Under normal circumstances,
I would agree,
708
00:54:15,209 --> 00:54:20,500
'but...
Well, my advisors have been'
709
00:54:20,625 --> 00:54:24,375
taking the temperature
among people on the streets,
710
00:54:24,500 --> 00:54:29,042
and...well, the information I'm getting
is that the mood
711
00:54:30,500 --> 00:54:32,500
'is quite delicate.'
712
00:54:34,750 --> 00:54:37,500
So, what would you suggest,
Prime Minister?
713
00:54:37,625 --> 00:54:41,459
- Some kind of a statement?
- No, ma'am.
714
00:54:41,584 --> 00:54:45,125
I believe
the moment for statements has passed.
715
00:54:48,209 --> 00:54:52,834
'I would suggest flying the flag
at half mast above Buckingham Palace...
716
00:54:54,417 --> 00:54:59,667
...and coming down to London
at the earliest opportunity.
717
00:54:59,792 --> 00:55:03,209
'It would be of great comfort
to your people.'
718
00:55:05,334 --> 00:55:08,417
And would help them with their grief.
719
00:55:09,125 --> 00:55:11,125
"Their grief'?
720
00:55:12,209 --> 00:55:15,459
If you imagine
I'm going to come to London,
721
00:55:15,584 --> 00:55:20,250
before I attend to my grandchildren,
who've just lost their mother...
722
00:55:20,375 --> 00:55:23,459
then you're mistaken.
723
00:55:23,584 --> 00:55:27,917
I doubt there is anyone who knows
the British people more than I do,
724
00:55:28,042 --> 00:55:31,542
nor who has greater faith
in their wisdom and judgement.
725
00:55:31,667 --> 00:55:37,584
And it is my belief that they will,
at any moment, reject this...this mood,
726
00:55:37,709 --> 00:55:41,125
which is being stirred up by the press
727
00:55:41,250 --> 00:55:44,334
in favour
of a period of restrained grief
728
00:55:44,459 --> 00:55:46,625
and sober, private mourning.
729
00:55:48,542 --> 00:55:51,667
That's the way we do things
in this country -
730
00:55:51,792 --> 00:55:54,917
quietly, with dignity.
731
00:55:57,042 --> 00:56:00,042
It's what the rest of the world
admires us for.
732
00:56:00,167 --> 00:56:04,167
If that's your decision, ma'am,
the government will support it.
733
00:56:05,667 --> 00:56:09,459
- Let's keep in touch.
- Yes, let's.
734
00:56:15,750 --> 00:56:17,750
Bloody fool!
735
00:56:17,875 --> 00:56:20,000
And now your tea's gone cold.
736
00:56:22,959 --> 00:56:24,792
(Knocking)
737
00:56:24,875 --> 00:56:29,875
Tony, Robin Janvrin on One.
He was listening in.
738
00:56:35,417 --> 00:56:37,542
Robin?
739
00:56:37,667 --> 00:56:41,500
I understand how difficult
her behaviour must seem to you,
740
00:56:41,625 --> 00:56:44,459
but try and see it
from her perspective.
741
00:56:44,584 --> 00:56:48,459
She's been brought up
to believe it's God's will.
742
00:56:48,584 --> 00:56:50,584
"She is who she is!
743
00:56:50,709 --> 00:56:55,834
I think we should leave God out of it.
It's just not helpful.
744
00:56:55,917 --> 00:56:59,667
She hasn't seen anything like this
since the abdication,
745
00:56:59,792 --> 00:57:02,750
and I cannot emphasise
the effect that had.
746
00:57:02,875 --> 00:57:06,875
Unexpectedly becoming king
as good as killed her father.
747
00:57:06,959 --> 00:57:09,584
'I'm afraid she's in a state of shock.
748
00:57:09,709 --> 00:57:13,292
"This public reaction
has completely thrown her.
749
00:57:13,417 --> 00:57:18,417
All right, but first, we have to deal
with these terrible headlines.
750
00:57:19,709 --> 00:57:24,000
- I'll do what I can with the press.
- I'm grateful, Prime Minister.
751
00:57:25,125 --> 00:57:27,584
I can't promise anything.
752
00:57:27,709 --> 00:57:29,709
It's not me they want to see.
753
00:57:54,375 --> 00:57:56,792
Ask Alastair to come and see me.
754
00:58:01,167 --> 00:58:03,959
Cancel what I'm doing tonight.
755
00:58:08,792 --> 00:58:10,959
- Good morning.
- Your Majesty.
756
00:58:11,084 --> 00:58:13,334
Thomas, where have they gone?
757
00:58:13,459 --> 00:58:16,834
- Up to Abergannie Ridge, ma'am.
- All that way?
758
00:58:16,917 --> 00:58:20,750
- Remind me, that's right at the fork?
- That's right, ma'am.
759
00:58:20,875 --> 00:58:24,292
You follow the track for about a mile,
and you come to...
760
00:58:24,417 --> 00:58:26,417
The river.
761
00:58:27,584 --> 00:58:31,584
- One of the lads will drive you.
- No, I'll manage. Thank you.
762
00:59:29,834 --> 00:59:31,917
(Grinding metal)
763
00:59:35,875 --> 00:59:37,875
Bugger it!
764
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:40,584
(Sighs)
765
01:00:01,125 --> 01:00:03,250
Oh, how stupid!
766
01:00:23,292 --> 01:00:25,292
(Phone rings)
767
01:00:26,500 --> 01:00:28,875
- (Queen) 'Hello, Thomas
- Hello, ma'am.
768
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:32,667
I've done something foolish.
I've broken the prop shaft.
769
01:00:32,792 --> 01:00:36,084
- Are you sure, ma'am.
- Yes, of course I'm sure.
770
01:00:36,209 --> 01:00:39,292
It's the front one.
Lost the four-wheel drive.
771
01:00:39,417 --> 01:00:42,375
Don't forget,
I was a mechanic during the war.
772
01:00:42,500 --> 01:00:44,959
- Are you all right?
- I'm fine.
773
01:00:45,084 --> 01:00:48,250
- We'll come out straight away.
- Thank you very much.
774
01:00:48,375 --> 01:00:51,375
I'll wait by the car. You are kind.
Bye.
775
01:01:32,792 --> 01:01:35,792
(Sobs)
776
01:02:07,417 --> 01:02:10,250
Oh, you're a beauty.
777
01:02:23,667 --> 01:02:25,667
(Distant gunshot)
778
01:02:27,875 --> 01:02:30,459
Shoo! Shoo! Go on!
779
01:02:31,875 --> 01:02:34,084
Go on.
780
01:02:34,209 --> 01:02:36,042
Go on!
781
01:02:37,917 --> 01:02:39,917
(Dog barks)
782
01:02:52,875 --> 01:02:55,042
(Chuckles)
783
01:03:09,584 --> 01:03:10,959
(Door opens)
784
01:03:12,084 --> 01:03:16,709
There are news crews outside waiting
for you to speak to the people.
785
01:03:16,834 --> 01:03:19,625
- Yes.
- What's all that about?
786
01:03:19,750 --> 01:03:23,875
I told the Queen's private secretary
I'd try to help with the press.
787
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:31,084
Why? Don't you think she deserves it,
sitting up there on her 40,000 acres?
788
01:03:31,209 --> 01:03:36,209
Yes, but allowing her to hang herself
might not be in our best interests either.
789
01:03:36,334 --> 01:03:40,500
Besides, I think there's something ugly
790
01:03:40,625 --> 01:03:43,917
about the way
everyone's started to bully her.
791
01:04:04,542 --> 01:04:08,000
The first thing that you obviously
think about...
792
01:04:08,125 --> 01:04:10,334
is the rest of your family, and ll...
793
01:04:10,459 --> 01:04:12,625
When's she coming to London, Mr Blair?
794
01:04:12,750 --> 01:04:15,875
- (Woman) 'She's our figurehead .
- (Tony) 'She is!
795
01:04:15,959 --> 01:04:20,167
'She wanted me to pass on
to the people crowding around...'
796
01:04:20,292 --> 01:04:24,209
(Man) 'In a moment to spare, the Prime
Minister went down Downing Street...'
797
01:04:24,334 --> 01:04:28,084
- How are the boys?
- Not so good tonight.
798
01:04:28,209 --> 01:04:30,625
A lot of slamming doors.
799
01:04:30,750 --> 01:04:33,625
- I think they saw the papers.
- Oh, no!
800
01:04:33,750 --> 01:04:36,959
I'll take them out
early again tomorrow morning.
801
01:04:37,084 --> 01:04:40,459
Perhaps they'll take it out
on the stag.
802
01:04:42,459 --> 01:04:45,167
'What do you think
of the royal family?'
803
01:04:45,292 --> 01:04:47,084
"They've made a mistake.
804
01:04:47,209 --> 01:04:50,000
- Pardon?
- They've made a mistake.
805
01:04:50,125 --> 01:04:53,959
- (Woman) 'Why? What do you mean?'
- (Man) 'Well, they should've came.
806
01:04:54,084 --> 01:04:59,500
"The family should have come down
to Buckingham Palace on Sunday,
807
01:04:59,625 --> 01:05:01,625
'all of them.
808
01:05:01,750 --> 01:05:03,792
'That girl's been left on her own.
809
01:05:03,875 --> 01:05:06,500
'She's on her own
and the place is empty.'
810
01:05:06,625 --> 01:05:08,875
Oh, please!
811
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:12,709
Sleeping in the streets
and pulling out their hair?
812
01:05:12,834 --> 01:05:17,000
For someone they never knew?
And they think we're mad?
813
01:05:17,125 --> 01:05:20,709
- Have you seen the funeral guest list?
- No.
814
01:05:20,834 --> 01:05:22,959
I suggest you keep it that way.
815
01:05:23,084 --> 01:05:26,709
A chorus line of soap stars
and homosexuals.
816
01:05:26,834 --> 01:05:30,709
Apparently,
Elton John is going to be singing.
817
01:05:30,834 --> 01:05:34,375
That'll be a first
for Westminster Abbey.
818
01:05:34,500 --> 01:05:39,167
Condolence books are being signed
in embassies all over the world,
819
01:05:39,292 --> 01:05:42,875
and in London alone,
the number has reached 40.
820
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:46,125
It reminds me of one of those films -
821
01:05:46,250 --> 01:05:50,000
a few of us in a fort,
hordes of Zulus outside.
822
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:56,334
So, it's vital you hold firm.
Stick to your guns.
823
01:05:56,459 --> 01:06:00,459
You wait.
They will come to their senses soon.
824
01:06:00,584 --> 01:06:02,667
They have to.
825
01:06:02,792 --> 01:06:05,417
Come on, move over, Cabbage.
826
01:06:16,625 --> 01:06:20,209
(Woman) 'It's six o'clock on Thursday
4th September. "
827
01:06:20,334 --> 01:06:22,834
"As the first people start
camping out
828
01:06:22,917 --> 01:06:26,167
'on the route of Princess Diana's
funeral cortege,
829
01:06:26,292 --> 01:06:30,792
'people are asking why the Queen
hasn't addressed her subjects?'
830
01:06:30,875 --> 01:06:33,542
"This is what the newspapers
are saying,
831
01:06:33,667 --> 01:06:36,667
"Where is our Queen?
Where is her flag?"
832
01:06:42,834 --> 01:06:46,959
The Express, "Show us you care."
A picture of a grumpy Queen.
833
01:06:47,084 --> 01:06:50,667
The Mail,
"Let the flag fly at half mast,"
834
01:06:50,792 --> 01:06:55,042
and inside, "The Queen should be here
to show her respects.”
835
01:06:55,167 --> 01:07:00,125
But the flip side is "Blair more
popular now than Churchill."
836
01:07:00,250 --> 01:07:03,334
Did they pick up
on our statement of support?
837
01:07:03,459 --> 01:07:05,459
Just the one.
838
01:07:07,959 --> 01:07:10,750
Statements of support don't sell papers.
839
01:07:13,584 --> 01:07:15,375
Right.
840
01:07:18,250 --> 01:07:20,709
Ma'am! Ma'am!
841
01:07:22,750 --> 01:07:25,417
The Prime minister for you, ma'am.
842
01:07:25,542 --> 01:07:27,917
I'm afraid he's rather insisting.
843
01:07:30,125 --> 01:07:32,292
I'll take it in the kitchen.
844
01:07:37,167 --> 01:07:39,167
(Dogs bark)
845
01:07:39,292 --> 01:07:41,625
Good morning. Sorry to disturb you.
846
01:07:41,750 --> 01:07:45,084
I'm expecting a phone call
to be put through. Out!
847
01:07:45,209 --> 01:07:46,959
(Phone rings)
848
01:07:47,042 --> 01:07:48,959
(Queen) Oh, there it is.
849
01:07:52,250 --> 01:07:54,250
Thank you, Peter.
850
01:07:59,042 --> 01:08:02,792
- Good morning, Prime Minister.
- Good morning, ma'am.
851
01:08:02,917 --> 01:08:05,042
You've seen today's headlines?
852
01:08:05,167 --> 01:08:07,167
Yes, I have.
853
01:08:07,292 --> 01:08:09,292
Then I'm sure you'll agree
854
01:08:09,417 --> 01:08:13,542
the situation has become
quite critical.
855
01:08:16,125 --> 01:08:17,959
'Ma'am?'
856
01:08:18,042 --> 01:08:21,750
A poll that's to be published
in tomorrow's papers
857
01:08:21,875 --> 01:08:23,875
suggests that 70% of people
858
01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:26,792
believe your actions
have damaged the monarchy...
859
01:08:28,584 --> 01:08:34,792
...and that one in four are now in favour
of abolishing the monarchy altogether.
860
01:08:37,250 --> 01:08:39,875
As your Prime Minister,
861
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:44,000
I believe
it is my constitutional responsibility
862
01:08:44,084 --> 01:08:46,084
to advise the following...
863
01:08:59,834 --> 01:09:01,834
Is Queen Elizabeth up yet?
864
01:09:09,084 --> 01:09:11,334
Mummy?
865
01:09:11,459 --> 01:09:15,750
One, fly the flag at half mast
above Buckingham Palace
866
01:09:15,875 --> 01:09:18,334
and all other royal residences.
867
01:09:20,417 --> 01:09:24,834
Two, leave Balmoral and fly to London
at the earliest opportunity.
868
01:09:26,125 --> 01:09:30,875
Three, pay our respects in person
at Diana's coffin.
869
01:09:32,875 --> 01:09:38,917
And four, make a statement, via live
television, to my people and the world.
870
01:09:40,584 --> 01:09:44,917
Swift prosecution of these matters
might, he felt,
871
01:09:45,000 --> 01:09:48,459
just might, avert disaster.
872
01:09:48,584 --> 01:09:51,875
You will have to talk
to the Lord Chamberlain.
873
01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:57,209
I have, and to Robert Fellowes.
They both agree with Mr Blair.
874
01:09:57,334 --> 01:10:00,125
- Oh, I see.
- Something's happened.
875
01:10:00,250 --> 01:10:03,625
There's been a change,
some...shift in values.
876
01:10:06,500 --> 01:10:11,334
When you no longer understand your
people, maybe it is time to hand over.
877
01:10:11,459 --> 01:10:13,959
Oh, don't be ridiculous.
878
01:10:14,042 --> 01:10:16,042
Remember the vow you took?
879
01:10:18,625 --> 01:10:22,542
I declare that my whole life,
whether it be long or short,
880
01:10:22,667 --> 01:10:25,000
shall be devoted to your service.
881
01:10:26,084 --> 01:10:31,250
Your whole life. That is a commitment
to God as well as your people.
882
01:10:31,375 --> 01:10:34,042
What if my actions
are damaging the Crown?
883
01:10:34,167 --> 01:10:39,084
Damaging it? You're the greatest asset
this institution has,
884
01:10:39,209 --> 01:10:42,375
one of the greatest it has ever had.
885
01:10:42,500 --> 01:10:47,542
No. The problem will come
when you leave,
886
01:10:47,667 --> 01:10:51,000
but you mustn't think about that now,
not today.
887
01:10:51,125 --> 01:10:53,125
Oh, Mummy.
888
01:10:53,250 --> 01:10:58,500
You must show your strength,
reassert your authority.
889
01:10:59,834 --> 01:11:03,042
You sit
on the most powerful throne in Europe,
890
01:11:03,167 --> 01:11:07,792
head of an unbroken line that goes back
more than a thousand years.
891
01:11:07,917 --> 01:11:12,667
Do you think any of your predecessors
would have dropped everything
892
01:11:12,792 --> 01:11:17,292
and gone to London because
a bunch of hysterics carrying candles
893
01:11:17,417 --> 01:11:19,500
needed help with their grief?
894
01:11:21,792 --> 01:11:27,334
As for that silly Mr Blair,
with his Cheshire cat grin...
895
01:11:42,584 --> 01:11:45,209
Mr Janvrin on the phone for you, sir.
896
01:11:46,667 --> 01:11:48,667
Yes?
897
01:11:48,792 --> 01:11:50,584
(Yells) What?
898
01:11:50,709 --> 01:11:52,709
I can't hear!
899
01:11:53,709 --> 01:11:56,125
Well, that's madness!
900
01:11:56,250 --> 01:12:00,584
The whole thing. Bloody madness!
901
01:12:04,125 --> 01:12:06,834
I've just been told
902
01:12:06,959 --> 01:12:11,334
you've decided we're to follow
the Prime Minister's advice.
903
01:12:12,584 --> 01:12:14,709
I just want to say ll...
904
01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:18,000
admire...
905
01:12:20,209 --> 01:12:22,459
I think it's the right decision.
906
01:12:23,709 --> 01:12:26,375
Let's hope we haven't left it too late.
907
01:12:31,834 --> 01:12:33,834
(Door shuts)
908
01:13:03,875 --> 01:13:06,875
(Camera shutters click)
909
01:13:10,209 --> 01:13:13,000
(Man) 'These are historic shots
of the Windsors.
910
01:13:13,084 --> 01:13:15,334
'The Queen has had a change of heart.
911
01:13:15,459 --> 01:13:18,084
'She's clearly responding to the need
912
01:13:18,209 --> 01:13:22,000
'to feel that the royal family is
somehow engaged.
913
01:13:22,084 --> 01:13:25,125
'These flowers have been brought
to Balmoral
914
01:13:25,250 --> 01:13:29,292
'so she can see some token
of what's been expressed in London.'
915
01:13:29,417 --> 01:13:33,750
(Cherie) Fish fingers. Do you want any?
- I'll be right there.
916
01:13:37,667 --> 01:13:40,084
Thank God for that!
917
01:13:40,209 --> 01:13:42,209
I'm afraid they're a bit burnt.
918
01:13:58,042 --> 01:13:59,709
(Engine backfires)
919
01:13:59,834 --> 01:14:01,542
(Man) 'From CNN International,
this is World News
920
01:14:01,542 --> 01:14:04,000
(Man) 'From CNN International,
this is World News
921
01:14:04,084 --> 01:14:07,167
'with Ralitsa Vassileva
from CNN Center!
922
01:14:07,792 --> 01:14:11,792
Queen Elizabeth will deliver
a televised address, Friday.
923
01:14:11,917 --> 01:14:14,917
The royal family has been accused
of showing little grief
924
01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:17,000
over the Princess's death.
925
01:14:38,875 --> 01:14:42,292
- Where are the boys? Have they left?
- Yes.
926
01:14:42,417 --> 01:14:46,084
They left for London
after breakfast with Charles.
927
01:14:46,209 --> 01:14:48,209
It's not right, you know.
928
01:14:48,334 --> 01:14:51,500
No, but further discussion
is no longer helpful either.
929
01:14:51,625 --> 01:14:53,417
(Sighs) Oh, well.
930
01:14:54,959 --> 01:14:58,750
It gives the gillies time
to find another stag for the boys,
931
01:14:58,875 --> 01:15:00,667
now theirs has been shot.
932
01:15:00,792 --> 01:15:02,792
- What?
- Haven't you heard?
933
01:15:02,917 --> 01:15:05,792
He wandered over
to a neighbouring estate,
934
01:15:05,917 --> 01:15:09,000
where one of the commercial guests
got him.
935
01:15:09,084 --> 01:15:11,084
Oh.
936
01:15:12,459 --> 01:15:14,459
Really?
937
01:15:15,709 --> 01:15:17,834
Which estate?
938
01:15:35,292 --> 01:15:39,834
Here's your box. There's some
policy unit stuff that's important.
939
01:15:39,959 --> 01:15:43,209
- Have you seen the papers?
- I thought I'd skip them.
940
01:15:43,334 --> 01:15:45,917
- Of course I've seen them.
- Not bad, eh?
941
01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:50,334
"Your Majesty, come to London."
"Who says so?" "Tony Blair."
942
01:15:52,084 --> 01:15:54,500
Mr Father of the Nation.
943
01:16:10,917 --> 01:16:13,542
Ma'am? Good morning, ma'am.
944
01:16:13,667 --> 01:16:16,917
- Good morning.
- Is it his lordship you came to see?
945
01:16:17,000 --> 01:16:21,834
No, please don't disturb him. I came on
another matter. I hope you don't mind.
946
01:16:44,167 --> 01:16:46,167
(Man) There he is.
947
01:16:47,625 --> 01:16:49,625
He's a beauty, isn't he?
948
01:16:50,792 --> 01:16:52,792
An imperial, ma'am.
949
01:16:54,750 --> 01:16:56,750
Fourteen-pointer.
950
01:17:05,875 --> 01:17:08,625
- He was wounded.
- Yes.
951
01:17:08,750 --> 01:17:13,000
We got our guests in very close,
had him lined up perfect...
952
01:17:14,125 --> 01:17:16,125
...and still...
953
01:17:16,250 --> 01:17:19,042
An investment banker, ma'am,
from London.
954
01:17:20,084 --> 01:17:25,084
I'm afraid the stalkers had to follow
him for miles to finish him off.
955
01:17:27,167 --> 01:17:29,459
Let's hope he didn't suffer too much.
956
01:17:39,417 --> 01:17:41,959
Pass my congratulations to your guest.
957
01:17:42,042 --> 01:17:44,042
I will, ma'am.
958
01:17:50,667 --> 01:17:53,917
- God bless you, ma'am.
- Thank you.
959
01:18:26,667 --> 01:18:29,250
- Ma'am...
- Yes, Robin?
960
01:18:29,375 --> 01:18:32,625
I've done a draft
of your television address.
961
01:18:32,750 --> 01:18:35,417
Thank you.
962
01:18:39,042 --> 01:18:41,459
Was there anything else?
963
01:18:41,584 --> 01:18:43,584
No, ma'am.
964
01:18:43,709 --> 01:18:45,709
Landing in 15 minutes.
965
01:18:57,375 --> 01:18:59,584
I've got the Queen's speech.
966
01:19:00,667 --> 01:19:03,834
- Shall I give Tony a copy?
- Let me look at it first.
967
01:19:03,959 --> 01:19:05,959
He's next door.
968
01:19:10,667 --> 01:19:14,292
(Man) '...and the anger,
as somebody said earlier,
969
01:19:14,417 --> 01:19:19,459
'perhaps was that people grieving
need to target their anger at somebody,
970
01:19:19,584 --> 01:19:22,750
'and royal protocol
might have got in the way,
971
01:19:22,875 --> 01:19:26,542
'but royal protocol
is being swept aside en masse today.

(Woman) 'The Queen is getting out
to talk to people.'

(Man) 'It's very unusual.
This Is unprecedented.

'I think, perhaps the last time
the Queen was among her people
982

'outside the palace was the day
the war in Europe ended.'

(Woman) 'It's really as if the public
and the royal family, the monarchy,
984
01:20:17,584 --> 01:20:22,417
'have had a bit of a quarrel and now
it's being healed in some measure.'
985
01:20:22,542 --> 01:20:28,084
(Man) 'Like a family spat, not unlike
the spats they acknowledged with Diana.

'Jenny is quite right to say that whatever
the professional ups and downs

They sent a copy of the Queen's speech.

You might want
to scrape the frost off it first.
990

(Man) 'l think the queen was generous
in recognising
991

'that her oldest son wasn't
the easiest chap to be married to.'
992
01:20:50,459 --> 01:20:54,500
I sent some suggestions to make it
seem like it came from a human.
993
01:20:54,625 --> 01:20:57,042
Yeah, all right, Alastair.
994
01:20:58,167 --> 01:21:01,334
At least the old bat agreed
to visit Diana's coffin.
995
01:21:01,459 --> 01:21:04,709
When you get it wrong,
you really get it wrong.
996
01:21:04,834 --> 01:21:09,334
That woman has given her whole life
in service to her people,
997
01:21:09,459 --> 01:21:14,042
50 years doing a job she never wanted,
a job she watched kill her father.
998
01:21:14,167 --> 01:21:18,834
She's executed it with honour, dignity,
and without a single blemish,
999
01:21:18,959 --> 01:21:21,542
and now,
we're all baying for her blood!
1000
01:21:21,667 --> 01:21:24,084
She's leading the world in mourning
1001
01:21:24,209 --> 01:21:27,417
for someone who threw all she offered
in her face,
1002
01:21:27,542 --> 01:21:30,000
and who, for years, seemed committed
1003
01:21:30,084 --> 01:21:33,167
to destroying
everything she holds most dear!
1004
01:21:33,292 --> 01:21:35,292
(Silence)
1005
01:22:37,667 --> 01:22:41,625
Hello. Would you like me
to place those for you?
1006
01:22:41,750 --> 01:22:44,042
- No.
- Oh.
1007
01:22:45,042 --> 01:22:47,584
These are for you.
1008
01:22:49,209 --> 01:22:51,209
For me?
1009
01:22:54,167 --> 01:22:56,167
Thank you.
1010
01:22:57,125 --> 01:22:59,125
Thank you very much.
1011
01:23:26,959 --> 01:23:31,542
Ma'am, there's been a last-minute
addition from Downing Street.
1012
01:23:31,667 --> 01:23:35,750
They're suggesting adding,
"and as a grandmother" here.
1013
01:23:35,875 --> 01:23:37,875
Right.
1014
01:23:42,417 --> 01:23:46,667
"So, what I say to you now,
as your Queen, and as a grandmother,
1015
01:23:46,792 --> 01:23:48,792
"I say from my heart."
1016
01:23:48,917 --> 01:23:51,584
Do you think you can say it?
1017
01:23:51,709 --> 01:23:55,709
- Do I have a choice?
- They're ready for you, Your Majesty.
1018
01:23:57,834 --> 01:24:01,042
- Just to confirm, this is live.
- Fine.
1019
01:24:01,125 --> 01:24:04,417
You'll be at the front of the six o'clock
news on all channels.
1020
01:24:04,542 --> 01:24:06,542
Yes.
1021
01:24:45,750 --> 01:24:47,750
Thank you.
1022
01:24:48,917 --> 01:24:51,625
- OK, nice and quiet.
- (Man) Ten seconds.
1023
01:24:55,417 --> 01:24:58,417
(Man) 'We cross, now, live,
to Buckingham Palace
1024
01:24:58,542 --> 01:25:01,625
'for the Queen's tribute
to Princess Diana.'
1025
01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:10,292
Since last Sunday's dreadful news,
1026
01:25:10,417 --> 01:25:14,042
we have seen, throughout Britain
and around the world,
1027
01:25:14,167 --> 01:25:18,292
an overwhelming expression of sadness
at Diana's death.
1028
01:25:18,417 --> 01:25:22,834
We have all been trying,
in our different ways, to cope.
1029
01:25:22,959 --> 01:25:26,459
It is not easy
to express a sense of loss,
1030
01:25:26,584 --> 01:25:30,917
'since the initial shock
is often succeeded by other feelings,
1031
01:25:31,042 --> 01:25:36,042
'disbelief, incomprehension, anger
and concern for those who remain.
1032
01:25:38,709 --> 01:25:42,209
'We have all felt those emotions
in these last few days,'
1033
01:25:42,334 --> 01:25:47,834
so what I say to you now,
as your Queen, and as a grandmother,
1034
01:25:47,959 --> 01:25:50,834
I say from my heart.
1035
01:25:50,959 --> 01:25:55,334
Heart? What heart?
She doesn't mean a word of this.
1036
01:25:55,459 --> 01:25:58,542
That's not the point.
What she's doing is extraordinary.
1037
01:25:58,667 --> 01:26:01,250
(Queen) 'In good times and bad...
1038
01:26:01,375 --> 01:26:04,209
- That's how to survive.
- Listen to you.
1039
01:26:04,334 --> 01:26:07,334
A week ago,
you were the great moderniser,
1040
01:26:07,459 --> 01:26:10,792
making speeches
about the people's princess.
1041
01:26:10,917 --> 01:26:13,875
- Now you've gone weak at the knees.
- Ssh.
1042
01:26:14,000 --> 01:26:16,667
(Queen) '...and for her devotion
to her two boys.'
1043
01:26:16,792 --> 01:26:19,500
I don't know why I'm so surprised.
1044
01:26:19,625 --> 01:26:24,084
At the end of the day, all Labour prime
ministers go gaga for the Queen.
1045
01:26:24,209 --> 01:26:26,000
What?
1046
01:26:26,084 --> 01:26:31,042
(Queen) 'Millions who never met her,
but felt they knew her, will remember her.
1047
01:26:32,709 --> 01:26:37,292
'L, for one, believe there are lessons
to be drawn from her life,
1048
01:26:37,417 --> 01:26:41,417
'and from the extraordinary
and moving reaction to her death.
1049
01:26:42,417 --> 01:26:46,417
'I share in your determination
to cherish her memory.'
1050
01:26:46,542 --> 01:26:50,625
I hope that, tomorrow, we can all,
wherever we are,
1051
01:26:50,750 --> 01:26:54,417
join in expressing our grief
at Diana's loss
1052
01:26:54,542 --> 01:26:57,750
and gratitude
for her all-too-short life.
1053
01:26:57,875 --> 01:27:00,709
May those who died rest in peace,
1054
01:27:00,834 --> 01:27:04,000
and may we, each and every one of us,
1055
01:27:04,084 --> 01:27:10,334
thank God for someone
who made many, many people happy.
1056
01:27:16,875 --> 01:27:19,542
(Man) 'Diana's coffin, now on the move
1057
01:27:19,667 --> 01:27:22,834
'the short distance
from St James's Palace,
1058
01:27:22,959 --> 01:27:27,250
'to her home at Kensington Palace
before her burial tomorrow.
1059
01:27:28,917 --> 01:27:31,834
'It's incredible. Less than a week.
1060
01:27:31,959 --> 01:27:34,709
'Who could have imagined
such scenes?'
1061
01:27:50,209 --> 01:27:55,709
Requiem
1062
01:27:57,792 --> 01:28:05,042
- Requiem
- Aefernam
1063
01:28:13,959 --> 01:28:20,834
Dona eis
1064
01:28:22,209 --> 01:28:25,709
Dona eis
1065
01:28:25,834 --> 01:28:28,750
Eis Domine
1066
01:28:29,750 --> 01:28:34,042
Dominus
1067
01:28:34,875 --> 01:28:38,625
Dominus
1068
01:28:40,959 --> 01:28:47,334
- Domine
- Domine...
1069
01:28:48,792 --> 01:28:53,625
(Althorp) Diana was the very essence
of compassion, of duty,
1070
01:28:53,750 --> 01:28:55,875
of style, of beauty,
1071
01:28:56,000 --> 01:29:01,125
a very British girl,
who transcended nationality,
1072
01:29:01,250 --> 01:29:06,250
someone with a natural nobility,
who was classless,
1073
01:29:06,375 --> 01:29:09,292
and who proved
that she needed no royal title
1074
01:29:09,417 --> 01:29:12,625
to continue to generate
her brand of magic.
1075
01:29:16,959 --> 01:29:19,459
I would like to end by thanking God
1076
01:29:19,584 --> 01:29:22,959
for the mercies he's shown us
at this dreadful time,
1077
01:29:23,042 --> 01:29:26,500
for taking Diana
at her most beautiful and radiant,
1078
01:29:26,625 --> 01:29:28,625
and when she had joy in her life.
1079
01:29:28,750 --> 01:29:32,042
Above all,
we give thanks for the life of a woman
1080
01:29:32,167 --> 01:29:35,042
I'm so proud
to be able to call my sister,
1081
01:29:35,125 --> 01:29:37,709
the unique, the complex,
1082
01:29:37,834 --> 01:29:41,334
the extraordinary
and irreplaceable Diana,
1083
01:29:41,459 --> 01:29:44,584
whose beauty,
both internal and external,
1084
01:29:44,709 --> 01:29:47,792
will never be extinguished
from our minds.
1085
01:29:50,959 --> 01:29:52,750
(Applause)
1086
01:30:30,709 --> 01:30:33,125
(Bell tolls)
1087
01:30:42,625 --> 01:30:45,167
So, off to see your girlfriend?
1088
01:30:45,292 --> 01:30:47,292
Now, now...
1089
01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:52,167
I hope she shows you
some respect this time.
1090
01:30:52,292 --> 01:30:55,709
It's quite a debt of gratitude
she owes you,
1091
01:30:55,834 --> 01:30:58,500
Mr Saviour of the Monarchy.
1092
01:30:58,625 --> 01:31:01,084
I doubt she'll see it that way.
1093
01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:08,000
- Robin.
- Prime Minister.
1094
01:31:08,084 --> 01:31:10,500
Tony, please.
1095
01:31:19,667 --> 01:31:22,042
The Prime Minister, Your Majesty.
1096
01:31:30,459 --> 01:31:32,459
Do sit down.
1097
01:31:33,459 --> 01:31:35,500
Thank you.
1098
01:31:46,209 --> 01:31:48,792
It's good to see you again,
1099
01:31:48,917 --> 01:31:52,417
after what's been...quite a summer.
1100
01:31:52,542 --> 01:31:55,917
I'm referring to your visit
to India and Pakistan...
1101
01:31:56,042 --> 01:32:00,417
where your comments on ending historic
disagreements went down well.
1102
01:32:02,417 --> 01:32:05,709
At the Commonwealth
Heads of Government Meeting,
1103
01:32:05,834 --> 01:32:08,042
I spoke to the prime minister of Malawi.
1104
01:32:08,125 --> 01:32:12,334
He said how much he appreciated
your tough stance on Nigeria.
1105
01:32:12,459 --> 01:32:15,292
I meant to tell you at the time,
but, er...
1106
01:32:16,292 --> 01:32:18,834
...you were being monopolised rather.
1107
01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:24,000
I imagine those occasions
must be quite difficult,
1108
01:32:24,084 --> 01:32:29,500
24 heads of government, each
clamouring for a private audience.
1109
01:32:33,584 --> 01:32:37,917
Also, we haven't had a chance to speak
since...that week.
1110
01:32:41,250 --> 01:32:44,834
- I wanted to offer my apologies.
- Whatever for?
1111
01:32:44,959 --> 01:32:48,917
In case you felt manhandled
or managed in any way.
1112
01:32:49,042 --> 01:32:51,042
No, not at all.
1113
01:32:56,542 --> 01:33:00,917
I don't think I shall ever understand
what happened this summer.
1114
01:33:01,042 --> 01:33:04,709
Well, the circumstances
were exceptional, ma'am...
1115
01:33:05,792 --> 01:33:11,292
...and in the end, you showed
great strength, courage and humility.
1116
01:33:11,417 --> 01:33:15,625
- You mistake humility for humiliation.
- That's not true.
1117
01:33:15,750 --> 01:33:19,792
You didn't read the cards
on the flowers outside the palace.
1118
01:33:19,917 --> 01:33:23,167
I think history will show
it was a good week for you.
1119
01:33:23,292 --> 01:33:25,959
And an even better one for you,
Mr Blair.
1120
01:33:26,042 --> 01:33:29,167
But there are 52 weeks
in the year, ma'am,
1121
01:33:29,292 --> 01:33:33,709
and two and a half thousand
in the time since you've been Queen.
1122
01:33:36,875 --> 01:33:41,042
When people assess your legacy,
they won't remember those days.
1123
01:33:41,125 --> 01:33:43,500
Oh, really?
1124
01:33:43,625 --> 01:33:48,417
You don't think that what affection
people once had for...
1125
01:33:48,542 --> 01:33:52,584
for this institution
has been diminished?
1126
01:33:52,709 --> 01:33:57,625
No. Not at all.
You're more respected now than ever.
1127
01:33:57,750 --> 01:34:01,834
I gather some of your advisors
were less fulsome in their support.
1128
01:34:03,167 --> 01:34:05,417
One or two,
1129
01:34:05,542 --> 01:34:09,542
but, as a leader, I could never add
my voice to that chorus.
1130
01:34:09,667 --> 01:34:13,500
You saw the headlines and thought,
"One day, it might be me."
1131
01:34:15,834 --> 01:34:20,667
And it will, Mr Blair, quite suddenly,
and without warning.
1132
01:34:22,917 --> 01:34:26,917
So, shall we get on
with the business in hand?
1133
01:34:27,459 --> 01:34:30,334
Oh, look...
1134
01:34:30,459 --> 01:34:35,084
Oh, I do love this time of day.
Shall we walk while there's light?
1135
01:34:35,209 --> 01:34:38,959
The clocks go back next week.
It'll be dark before five.
1136
01:34:39,042 --> 01:34:41,459
- I do hope you're a walker.
- am.
1137
01:34:41,584 --> 01:34:45,292
Good. I think meetings have
a greater chance of success
1138
01:34:45,417 --> 01:34:48,209
if the Prime Minister is a walker.
1139
01:34:48,334 --> 01:34:53,209
It's how I think best, on my feet.
I've never been one for sitting around.
1140
01:34:53,334 --> 01:34:56,584
A good walk in fresh air
sorts everything out.
1141
01:35:01,042 --> 01:35:04,625
One in four, you said,
wanted to get rid of me?
1142
01:35:04,750 --> 01:35:09,500
For about half an hour,
but then you came down to London,
1143
01:35:09,625 --> 01:35:11,625
and all that went away.
1144
01:35:13,542 --> 01:35:16,750
I've never been hated like that before.
1145
01:35:16,875 --> 01:35:18,875
It must have been difficult.
1146
01:35:19,000 --> 01:35:22,584
Yes. Very.
1147
01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:31,209
Nowadays, people want glamour
and tears, the grand performance.
1148
01:35:31,334 --> 01:35:34,667
I'm not very good at that.
I never have been.
1149
01:35:34,792 --> 01:35:38,167
I prefer to keep my feelings to myself,
1150
01:35:38,292 --> 01:35:42,292
and, foolishly, I believed that was
what people wanted from their Queen -
1151
01:35:42,417 --> 01:35:45,542
not to make a fuss,
nor wear one's heart on one's sleeve.
1152
01:35:45,667 --> 01:35:48,042
Duty first, self second.
1153
01:35:50,042 --> 01:35:52,167
That's how I was brought up.
1154
01:35:53,125 --> 01:35:55,125
That's all I've ever known.
1155
01:35:55,250 --> 01:35:58,292
You were so young
when you became Queen.
1156
01:36:04,750 --> 01:36:06,750
Yes.
1157
01:36:07,750 --> 01:36:09,750
Yes, a girl.
1158
01:36:15,500 --> 01:36:18,667
But I can see
that the world has changed,
1159
01:36:18,792 --> 01:36:22,375
and one must...modernise.
1160
01:36:24,125 --> 01:36:27,750
Well, perhaps that's where I can help.
1161
01:36:28,917 --> 01:36:31,917
Don't get ahead of yourself,
Prime Minister.
1162
01:36:32,042 --> 01:36:34,792
I'm the one
supposed to be advising you.
1163
01:36:37,917 --> 01:36:39,500
Come, dogs!
1164
01:36:47,375 --> 01:36:52,000
Tell me, Mr Blair, what might we expect
from our first parliament?
1165
01:36:52,084 --> 01:36:55,917
Er...well, ma'am,
top of the list is education.
1166
01:36:57,084 --> 01:37:00,084
We want to reduce classroom sizes.
1167
01:37:00,209 --> 01:37:02,209
Yes.
1168
01:37:02,334 --> 01:37:05,959
And create a lower teacher-pupil ratio.
1169
01:37:07,584 --> 01:37:12,375
(Voices become indistinct)
1170
