01:08Oh Margaret
01:10I forget what about
01:12There are so many
01:14Exchanges of views these days
01:21I thought things had moved on
01:24They've moved on alright
01:25He's moved on
01:28On to the next one
01:36He can't help himself
01:39My bright epic little snapper
01:49And I'll see you next time
01:53And I'll see you next time
02:11I don't know.
02:50You've never told me about the wallpaper.
02:52The rogues' gallery.
02:54Isn't it fun?
02:56I did it to remind Princess Margaret
02:59that her family has as many skeletons in the cupboard as anyone else's.
03:03House of Windsor.
03:05House of Horrors, mon egg.
03:08I hope she saw the funny side.
03:10God, no.
03:11She said as long as that wallpaper was there,
03:13she'd never come to the house.
03:14Not that she needed an excuse.
03:17She always hated it here.
03:19She considers it as ugly, misshapen,
03:23and common as me.
03:24The failure of our marriage
03:27could not be better encapsulated by the two houses,
03:30the two dwellings,
03:31in which she and I are most comfortable.
03:35Hers is some insect-infested gin palace
03:41given to her by fawning sycophants.
03:44And this is mine.
03:49Oh, you too.
03:52I know.
03:53And poor you to get caught up in it.
03:57My advice would be to escape while you still can.
04:01I'll never be able to give you what you want.
04:04She'll never divorce me.
04:07She might if she falls in love with someone else.
04:11What makes you think that'll happen?
04:15Well, you did.
04:17Didn't you?
04:23You're right.
04:28I did.
04:59You were right.
05:02I don't know.
06:05I'm sure it was her.
06:09The Thing.
06:10She has a name, you know.
06:13Yes.
06:14And, um, I haven't told it.
06:17But I can never remember, so I call her The Thing.
06:21Lucy Lindsay Hall.
06:22Mm-hmm.
06:24The Thing.
06:25The car she climbed into outside looked very much like Tony's.
06:32I suppose they're in Sussex now.
06:35Ugly little house.
06:38Dread for little shit.
06:44And he thinks I'll take the humiliation lying down, does he?
06:49Well, he's got another thing coming.
06:53May I speak frankly now?
06:55As a friend.
06:58I can think of several couples of whom it could be observed that having not found the contentment they desired
07:05within matrimony, have chosen to live apart and appear happier.
07:10Tony and I will never let go of one another.
07:13And it's not just because divorce is incompatible with my faith.
07:17Because this is just how we like it.
07:24War is our love.
07:26Brutal fight to the death is our mating dance.
07:29I speak for both of us when I say we wouldn't want it any other way.
07:37Contentment is dull.
07:39And Tony and I are anything but dull.
07:42You can now say with mere certainty that neither party will achieve a majority.
07:47So, the clock is now ticking for 10 feet to firm an alliance with Jeremy Falk's Liberal Party.
07:53If he can't, he might rise here to turn to power for Harold Wilson, if you can call a minority
07:58government power.
07:59What a mess.
08:01I mean, honestly, can you remember a time when the country was in worse shape?
08:04When one had as little confidence in one's leaders?
08:07Speaking of bad shape.
08:09One wakes up in the morning flinching.
08:11How could matters get any worse?
08:12What more could possibly go wrong?
08:14And then you come down to breakfast, you see the newspapers, and you realise they've done it again.
08:19Margaret's birthday is coming up.
08:21I mean, right now, the United Kingdom is the equivalent of a patient dying on the operating table and the
08:26surgeons.
08:27No, the butchers.
08:28No, sorry.
08:29The murderers responsible for causing that death are seeking re-election.
08:32Instead of throwing them in jail, are people like lemmings queuing up to extend their bloody contracts.
08:38She called me late last night.
08:40Said she had something important to discuss.
08:43Who?
08:44Margaret.
08:45She's run out of tonic?
08:47No.
08:48She's been knocked up by one of the footmen?
08:50Philip.
08:51You wouldn't put it past her.
08:53I worry it's Tony.
08:59Ready?
09:03Mr. Heath came to tell me that he was unable to form a co-relation with the Ulster Unionists or
09:08the Liberals, which left him with no alternative but to resign.
09:10At which point, I don't mind admitting, I let out an unconstitutional cheer.
09:15Huzzah.
09:16Privately, I hope.
09:17Well, it's not his politics I object to, so much as his company.
09:20And now, Mr. Wilson, who I must say looks very tired, not at all well, is back again as Prime
09:26Minister of a minority government.
09:27And the best we can hope for is that he can survive until the next election in the autumn.
09:32Oh, you really do have the most wicked story.
09:35It's nearly as bad.
09:36Do you think we're done?
09:37Oh, really?
09:38Yes, that's it.
09:47I have asked you all here, my family, on the occasion of my birthday.
09:56Happy birthday, Margot.
09:58You should notice that my dear husband is not at my side on this joyous occasion.
10:02It is because he's now betraying me, not just in private, but openly in public too.
10:07And I don't think we should take this lying down.
10:11Oui.
10:11Yes, oui, Mummy.
10:13If Tony insults me by implication, he's insulting the whole of the family too.
10:17I'm not sure I follow that logic.
10:19What would you like us to do?
10:20Send a clear signal to the world whose side you're on and impose sanctions.
10:27What?
10:27What kind of sanctions?
10:29No more invitations to royal events, no more royal photographs, no more access to crown property.
10:36It's in where it hurts.
10:38Punish him.
10:40Draw blood.
10:40Where is he now?
10:41He left the country this morning to make one of his films.
10:46Oh, Ghana?
10:47Or did you say Guinea?
10:49Gabon.
10:49Ah.
10:50With the thing.
10:51The what?
10:52I'll explain later.
10:53I rather liked his last film.
10:55Is it the one about dwarves?
10:56I'll tell you what I liked about it.
10:57Yes, it's short.
10:58It had compassion.
11:00It had kindness.
11:01In fact, I think that's the thing I most like about Tony.
11:04And his wit.
11:05Yes.
11:06And the fact that he's generous enough to flirt with his mother-in-law.
11:10He'll throw up.
11:12He cares.
11:13All right, Mummy.
11:14He has a heart.
11:15Yeah, not that his wife or children have noticed.
11:17Does his charity work for the disabled?
11:19And the way he was at Aberdeen.
11:21Yes.
11:22Yes.
11:23He's very generous enough.
11:24Get out!
11:26Get out!
11:28Get out!
11:32Why do you do this, Mummy?
11:35Why do you all do this?
11:37Why do you always, always take a side?
11:41This is my birthday party.
11:45And when I tell you that my husband is out of the country, betraying me with another woman,
11:51instead of supporting me and condemning him,
11:57you just sit here, praising him to the sky.
12:04My family.
12:06My own flesh and blood.
12:08My birthday.
12:15Perhaps we'll just stick to the back teeth of you and have sympathy for him.
12:19Philip, well...
12:21Am I wrong?
12:23Like, hands up anyone who thinks I'm wrong.
12:26Anne.
12:33We should eat these before they get cold, shouldn't we?
12:36She'll be all right.
12:37I hate them.
12:38I hate them.
12:39I hate them.
12:40I hate them.
12:40Why don't you come up here, ma'am?
12:43Come to Glen.
12:43We've invited a few guests for the weekend.
12:48Come here.
12:50You might even enjoy it.
12:52немножко, you know.
12:53Thanks.
13:05I...
13:13What is it?
13:18Like that...
13:19I hope it does.
13:19You never quite wish.
13:19Not going to barbecue for you.
17:42He's quite the virtuoso.
17:50Where's him?
17:52The one with all his clothes on.
17:54Well, that's Roddy.
17:57You must know his brother, Di, or his father, Harry Llewellyn, the Olympic showjumper.
18:05Roddy.
18:14Hello, your royal highness, your royal highness, your royal highness, how do you do?
18:19You're perspire, you're perspire, you're perspire, you're perspire, you're perspire, you're perspire, you're perspiring.
18:22True, I am, ma'am.
18:23So, why don't you jump in the pool?
18:25Well, I didn't bring any trunks.
18:27That was stupid.
18:28No, it wasn't.
18:28Yes, it was.
18:29I just said it was.
18:30It can't be stupid.
18:32I don't possess any trunks.
18:33It's not just stupid.
18:35That's absurd.
18:38Where's the nearest town?
18:41Oh.
18:46You know, this really wasn't necessary.
18:49On the contrary.
18:50It was essential.
18:52I mean, everyone else coming along too.
18:56Hmm?
18:56They're not coming with us.
18:58I wouldn't let them.
19:00No, they're going for lunch while we go shopping.
19:05So, apart from owning a woefully inadequate wardrobe,
19:11what is it that you do?
19:12A research assistant at the College of Arms,
19:16which involves genealogical research and boning up on heraldry.
19:21Hmm.
19:21I also have a mobile disco company called Vibrations,
19:26and I clean the floors in a gallery on the Fulham Road at night.
19:29But all of this is just to fund my real passion.
19:32Have we got to the end of the answer yet?
19:34I'm rather regretting asking.
19:36What nice hands you've got?
19:40Have I?
19:41Hmm.
19:42Hmm.
19:43How nice you've not noticed.
19:46So nice when a man is unaware of his best features.
19:51So sad when a lady hides hers.
19:55Did you mean ladies?
19:59No.
20:01What then?
20:03Your smile.
20:09I forgot now.
20:22Where are we?
20:24Peebles, ma'am.
20:27Where?
20:32This is the hotel.
20:34We'll be in the bar waiting for you.
20:36The department store's just over there on the right.
20:38You can't miss it.
20:40Would you?
20:41Please.
20:52Thank God.
20:55We've stumbled upon an experiment in breeding.
21:02Your royal highness.
21:04Gentlemen's bathing trunks, please.
21:07What size are you?
21:09Uh, small.
21:10Sincerely hope not.
21:12He means slim.
21:24Did we ever get to the bit where you told me your passion in life?
21:27No.
21:30Then what is it?
21:31Gardening, ma'am.
21:36Ah.
21:38These, please.
21:40No.
21:42These.
21:42I'm paying.
21:44I choose.
21:45Try them all.
21:56Oh.
22:08You know, not a garden.
22:10It means doing.
22:12You?
22:13I imagine you must have an army of gardens.
22:15Hmm.
22:16I don't believe everything you hear.
22:18You know, my garden is quite neglected.
22:21Especially the one in Mustique.
22:23Where?
22:25It's a small private island in the Caribbean.
22:31It's so lovely.
22:32Mm.
22:33My husband hates it.
22:35Since I hate my husband, what he thinks is irrelevant.
22:38You know, in the Caribbean, I have one of my favorite trees.
22:43The silk cotton tree.
22:46The challenge for any gardener is to judge the right amount of pruning.
22:50That's so.
22:51Well, you need very nimble fingers.
23:03And do you have nimble as well as pretty fingers?
23:09I do.
23:14Hmm.
23:15Perfect.
23:16She goes.
23:38So now or duet?
23:39Duet!
23:50I'm just a girl, a wonderful girl.
23:53I'm the sweetest one in town.
23:55You can start some miles around.
23:58But not one like me, kind of all.
24:01You've got a smile, a wonderful smile, and a certain little way.
24:05And every time the boys get near me, they look at me and sing.
24:13Red hot mama, red hot mama, you're the one we need.
24:19Red hot mama, sunshama, yes indeed.
24:23They say that I should be in the follies.
24:28But tomorrow, I have a pair of boys, just like all Svengali's.
24:36I confess that you possess the sweetest charms in town.
24:41And unless I miss my guests, the boys all follow you around.
24:46Make a music master drop his fears.
24:49We'll make a bald-handed man part of the air in the metal.
24:52Red hot mama, red hot mama.
24:54I have to tell my dad, Paul.
24:56Red hot mama, red hot mama.
24:59You're the one we need.
25:02Red hot mama, sunshama, yes indeed.
25:22When she went to bed, did you notice?
25:24Of course I noticed.
25:25Everyone noticed.
25:26The top of the stairs, instead of turning right.
25:29He turned left.
25:30What have we done?
25:32This could come back to haunt us.
25:35Why?
25:35It would look like we've encouraged the Queen's sister to betray her husband.
25:40She's not betraying Tony.
25:42She's with Tony.
25:44Can't you see?
25:45Slim, Welsh, reddish hair.
25:48The two men are virtually identical.
25:50Roddy's a carbon copy of Tony.
25:53Just younger.
25:55I hadn't thought of that.
26:18Old Snowden, ma'am.
26:27Your Majesty.
26:28Dear Tony.
26:32So kind of you to come.
26:33I know how busy you are.
26:42Before we start, just look what I found in my studio the other day.
26:51How young we were.
26:53How pretty you were.
26:54Oh, stop it.
26:55Like Vivian Leigh.
26:58I've always loved this picture.
27:01Yes.
27:02Gosh.
27:03Philip.
27:04Not looking cross for once.
27:05Miraculous.
27:07All yours, ma'am.
27:08For me?
27:09With my compliments.
27:10Oh.
27:11And now, to the main business.
27:18Voila.
27:21A mug.
27:24And?
27:30A teapot.
27:32Yes!
27:34And?
27:40Oh.
27:41A commemorative plate.
27:46And a tea towel.
27:47With the dates 1952 to 1977.
27:54The powers that be thought it might be nice if someone from inside the firm were to design
27:59some of the memorabilia.
28:01Oh, Tony, you are clever.
28:02Always happy to help my family.
28:05Are you?
28:07Let's talk about that for a minute.
28:09May I keep these as well?
28:11Yes.
28:11Yes, of course.
28:13Now, I don't want to pry or lecture anyone about what goes on in a marriage.
28:22In my experience, people find a way to do what they need to do to remain happy or sane.
28:27I often think turning a blind eye is the best approach.
28:32Things work themselves out in the end.
28:35But recently, Margaret has been so wretched and so lost.
28:44And she's so in love with you.
28:46I wouldn't be a responsible elder sister or head of the family if I didn't say how happy it would
28:52make us all, but particularly Margaret, if you two were to patch things up again, even if just for the
28:58children.
29:01I quite agree.
29:04And had been giving the matter serious thought.
29:07Had you really?
29:09Yes.
29:09But then I heard the latest developments.
29:14Who she's met.
29:17What she's doing.
29:19How she's...
29:21Conducting herself.
29:26What latest developments?
30:08Welcome, Your Royal Highness.
30:10No, I don't think you see.
30:12No, quite right.
30:12Hot and sweaty.
30:14Yes, isn't it unbearable.
30:15What are you talking about?
30:17That was lovely.
30:18Oh, you're right.
30:19Heavenly.
30:19This airplane, it was hot.
30:21Hello.
30:21Is this us?
30:22Yes, ma'am.
30:23Yes, I think straight to the house.
30:25I don't want any of that.
30:26Right.
30:27Hello, Anne.
30:27Don't like this one.
30:28Hello, Anne.
30:29Where's the boy?
30:30Look, do keep up now.
30:32Come on.
30:33I'm sorry, darling.
30:34Don't call me that in public, ever.
30:37I thought you didn't call me boy.
30:38You are one.
30:39You're a little boy.
30:40Steady.
30:40You need to be taught everything.
30:43Ma'am.
31:08There it is.
31:13I was given it as a wedding present.
31:18The irony is, one person I never share it with is my husband.
31:25Drink, ma'am.
31:30Yes, wonderful idea.
31:32Shall we?
31:36Well, no one told me about her.
31:40What could I do?
31:43Well, no one told me about her.
31:48Though they all knew.
31:50But it's too late to say you're sorry.
31:54How would I do?
31:55Why should I do?
31:57Please don't bother trying to find her.
32:01She's not there.
32:04Well, let me tell you about the way she looked.
32:06The way she acted.
32:08The color of her hair.
32:10Her voice was soft and cool.
32:12Her eyes were clear and bright.
32:14But she's not there.
32:45Well, no one told me about her.
32:49What could I do?
32:52Hello!
32:53Hello!
32:55Hello!
32:55Where are you?
32:57Hello!
32:58Look at her!
33:01She's not there!
33:03I wouldn't know why she acted.
33:07Your mother trying to find her.
33:10She's not there.
33:13My wife is acting about the way she loved me.
33:16The way she acted.
33:18The color of her hair.
33:20Her voice was soft and cool.
33:21I see the land there's a roll on there.
33:25I smell blossom and the trees are bare.
33:30All day long I seem to walk on it.
33:34I wonder why.
33:39Have you joined it?
33:40You do?
33:41No, no, no, no.
33:42I don't sing.
33:43I don't sing.
33:43Oh, turn it up.
33:45Turn it up.
33:46I love this song.
33:47A little bit louder.
33:48All the way.
33:49Sing the tale.
33:51Sing the tale.

38:53I don't know.
39:26I don't know.
39:54I don't know.
40:24I didn't expect to find you here.
40:26Where else would you expect to find me?
40:28It's my home.
40:30Used to be your home.
40:32It's still my home.
40:35What is he doing in it?
40:37Hello, sir.
40:41I would ask where you got the nerve to come here if I thought you had nerve.
40:46But looking at you, I can tell you've no nerve at all.
40:49You're just stupid.
40:50Come on, get out.
40:50Don't you dare talk to him like that.
40:53I'll speak to him whichever way I like.
40:55In my house.
40:56My house.
40:57Our house.
40:58Ducky.
40:59No, not ours anymore.
41:06Please leave.
41:08I won't leave.
41:10You don't want me to leave.
41:12I'm desperate for you to leave.
41:14Desperate.
41:15Like a patient.
41:17Desperate to cut out a cancer.
41:19Think very carefully about what you're saying.
41:22Every game has its limits.
41:24It's not a game anymore.
41:29He's a child.
41:31He's no idea how to make him happy.
41:34You made me happy.
41:35Couldn't make me any more wretched than you have.
41:38You were wretched when I found you.
41:42Your little love notes.
41:44You leave me everywhere.
41:45How do I loathe thee?
41:47Let me count the ways.
41:49You look like a Jewish manicurist.
41:51You look like a Maltese landlady.
41:53Little rich, I think, coming from a misshapen cripple.
41:55Oh, yes.
41:56Holy boy.
41:57Hoppity hop, hoppity hop.
41:59Overlooked by his mother because he wasn't strong enough.
42:02Or, well, born enough.
42:04An embarrassment.
42:05Not able-bodied enough.
42:06And if we're talking about overlooked,
42:09you know what this is all about.
42:10Overlooked Margaret with no role, no purpose,
42:13no real friends.
42:14Of whom it must have finally asked.
42:16What is a princess for-
42:20You go after him and I'll divorce you.
42:22Oh, you wouldn't dare.
42:25You go after him and I'll bring you to your knees.
42:28Molly!
42:29Molly!
42:32Molly!
42:34Molly!
42:34Molly!
42:35Molly!
43:01It's age.
43:03It happens to us all.
43:04No, ma'am, it's not just age.
43:07It's been diagnosed.
43:08It has a name.
43:12Alzheimer's.
43:24I first noticed symptoms two years ago.
43:29I always speak in public without notes.
43:32I have something of a photographic memory.
43:35But then, one day, I dried.
43:40And in the months that followed, I noticed more forgetfulness.
43:49Agitation.
43:52Delusion.
43:55Paranoia.
43:56I shouldn't worry too much.
43:58Several of your predecessors had far more serious afflictions.
44:01And they continued to govern without the public being any the wiser.
44:06No, ma'am.
44:06It's a mental health issue now.
44:09I shall put myself in the hands of the doctors.
44:15Prime Minister, I am sorry.
44:17This will come as a terrible shock.
44:19Well, maybe.
44:21No shock lasts longer than 48 hours.
44:25There's too much appetite for the next shock.
44:31I'll miss our sessions terribly.
44:34I don't mind admitting I let out an unconstitutional cheer when you beat Mr. Heath this time.
44:39Oh.
44:40I always said deep down you're a lefty at heart.
44:44Nothing to do with the politics or just a better companion.
44:47Although I wouldn't have said that the first time you met.
44:50No.
44:51You thought I was going to rough you lot up.
44:54And look what a sentimental old royalist I turned out to be.
45:15Your Majesty.
45:31Prime Minister.
45:35If you saw fit to invite your Queen to supper at Downing Street before you left,
45:40she would be honoured.
45:43But that's an honour previously only given to Churchill.
45:48The Duke of Edinburgh and I would like that very much.
45:54So would Mrs. Wilson and I.
46:12Martin?
46:15Martin?
46:26The amount of nitrazepam the princess took was quite critical, ma'am.
46:35Nitrazepam?
46:37A sedative.
46:39Used in short periods for the relief of anxiety and insomnia.
46:48Based on the numbers of empty packets we found.
46:54You would say more indicative of a cry for attention than a genuine suicide attempt.
47:02A cri de coeur rather than a coup de grace.
47:06Is that the워?
47:17Is that the judge?
47:3010% equals.
47:30you ocherr rápida.
47:30Resurde and noess.
47:30I think there are any kind of fireworks he is at the beginning of the duty.
47:30The two enhanced hips.
47:30Okay, then.
47:45Hello, you.
47:47Hello, you.
48:07Am I going to get her ticking off?
48:09That hadn't been my intention.
48:11Perhaps I should.
48:14Why?
48:15Because for a while there, it was touch and go.
48:21So I hear.
48:25Did you mean it?
48:28I don't know.
48:31Possibly.
48:35How do you feel now?
48:38Tired.
48:43It's sore.
48:45There were tubes.
48:49A little bit foolish.
48:54Where's Roddy?
48:56Gone.
48:58Where?
48:59Run for the hills.
49:02I hear Moroccan hills.
49:04And Tony?
49:06Back for the thing.
49:09Future Lady Snowden and I would wager.
49:16I'm not very good at it.
49:22What?
49:25The men.
49:27Seem to drive them all mad.
49:33Tony and I are going to separate.
49:36Yes, I think that's probably wise.
49:39Which I'm afraid to say will lead to divorce.
49:42Yes.
49:44The first royal divorce since Henry VIII and Anne of Cleves.
49:49I have a little bit of good news in that department.
49:52Which is?
49:53If we time it right, the announcement of your separation might get lost in the Prime Minister's resignation.
50:00I thought you only just got re-elected.
50:02Or did I really miss something?
50:03Due to ill health.
50:04Alzheimer's.
50:07Alzheimer's.
50:08Sorry?
50:15How many does that make it?
50:17Prime Minister's.
50:18Mm.
50:18And whoever replaces him will be my seventh.
50:23The rest of us drop like flies.
50:25But she goes on and on.
50:53For the record, I think there are many things you're good at.
50:56Name one that's actually meaningful.
50:59Being a sister.
51:01No need to humour me.
51:03I'm not.
51:05Of all the people everywhere, you are the closest and most important to me.
51:11And if by doing this, you wanted to let me imagine for one minute what life would be like without
51:17you,
51:19you succeeded.
51:24It would be unbearable.
51:32Then we must both carry on.
51:33Then we must both carry on.
51:33Then we must carry on.
52:21Good morning, Your Majesty.
52:33Well, usually when I drive into Broadcasting House just after five in the morning, the most I'm likely to see
52:38is a bridge delivery van or an office cleaner on the way to work.
52:41But this morning, despite the dark skies, there was a feeling of activity, a string of horses clashing through the
52:46streets and knots of people wearing red, white and blue gear drifting down towards the Fowler Square.
52:52But one of those who've been up all night to make sure of getting a good view of the procession
52:55and the prices with them outside Buckingham Palace.
52:59I'm standing in front of Buckingham Palace and I expect the Queen's teesmaid has just rung her back to consciousness.
53:05I expect she's lying there, just coming to and remembering that this is Jubilee Day.
53:09This is a day as gruelling as her coronation 25 years ago, certainly in ceremonial terms.
53:15But she was a bit of a thing in those days.
53:17I expect today she's wondering if the shoes she's going to wear are quite as comfortable as they might be.
53:22Now, the weather looks as though, as I say, as though it's certainly going to hold for the journey out.
53:29What's your view, the Jubilee?
53:35You must do it.
53:39You don't think it might all backfire on me?
53:43Ask yourself, in the time I've been on the throne, what have I actually achieved?
53:47You've been calm.
53:50Stable and...
53:51Useless and unhelpful.
53:54This country was still great when I came to the throne and now look.
53:57So much for the second Elizabethan age, which Winston talked about.
54:03All that's happened on my watch is the place has fallen apart.
54:06It's only fallen apart if we say it has.
54:10That's the thing about the monarchy.
54:14We paper over the cracks.
54:17And if what we do is loud and grand and confident enough,
54:23no one will notice that all around us it's fallen apart.
54:27That's the point of us.
54:31Not us.
54:33Of you.
54:36You cannot flinch.
54:40Because if you show a single crack,
54:44we'll see it isn't a crack, but a chasm.
54:48And we'll all fall in.
54:52So you must hold it all together.
54:58Must I do that alone?
55:01There is only one queen.
55:09And now, the poet laureate, Sir John Badgerman.
55:13God save the queen.
55:17In days of disillusion,
55:19however low we've been,
55:21to fire us and inspire us,
55:25God gave to us our queen.
55:28She exceeded young and beautiful
55:31to a much-loved father's throne,
55:34serene and kind and beautiful.
55:37She holds us as her own.
55:41And 25 years later,
55:44so sure her reign has been
55:46that our great events are greater
55:49for the presence of our queen.
55:54For our monarch and her people,
55:57united yet and free,
55:59let the bells from every steeple
56:02ring out loud the jubilee.
56:13jubilee's tale is so great.
56:14And I think we're so young.
56:14We lot of people will still
56:19are beautiful to see
56:19Long time we so much
56:19and we have a lot of doctors
56:22And I see how we take
56:22on this issues here at
56:22of our fallen
56:22to our weinemos room.
56:23We have some ideas
56:24that we're only
56:24to ask you
56:34but we didn't
