16:27Quiet! Quiet!
16:29Quiet!
16:57Back to work, everyone!
17:03Every time the whistle blows, it makes they think they've heard something.
17:07Another child trapped beneath the wreckage.
17:24One step, one step.
17:57I guarantee you the highest-level independent inquiry into this tragedy.
18:05All the necessary efforts will be given to those in charge to take whatever action they need.
18:14I've been neglected to this.
18:16I've been neglected to this.
18:21No intention of adding to anything I've made in my step.
18:25It's a bit late now.
18:28We've been turning our room for you as those tips were dangerous.
18:38There was a disaster waiting to happen, and no-one listened.
18:43The casualties in the tip disaster in South Wales could be as high as 200.
18:47Thirty-six people remain in hospital.
18:50Plenty of bodies have been recovered.
18:51And estimates suggest that as many as 150 more are still missing.
18:55Most of them children.
19:06What are you doing?
19:08You haven't heard the news.
19:09No?
19:10I-I-I've been at Caroline's birthday party.
19:14When you read the papers tomorrow, you'll understand.
19:16When you read the papers tomorrow, you'll understand.
19:21I don't know.
20:10I don't know.
20:17The Prime Minister Harold Wilson visited the scene today, and Buckingham Palace have issued a statement of sorrow from the
20:24Queen.
20:24The message reads,
20:25I am shocked and distressed to learn of the terrible disaster which has taken place at Aberfan.
20:30Please convey a message of my heartfelt sympathy from my husband and myself to the children's parents and to the
20:36families of those who have lost their lives.
20:39That's the news from us at the moment. Now back to London.
20:43There will be special reports during the evening.
21:10The Prime Minister.
21:13As of an hour ago, the loss of life in Aberfan stands at 116.
21:18It appears that over 80 are still missing.
21:2036 of the survivors have been hospitalised.
21:24I see.
21:25Are any more victims expected to be found?
21:28Not alive, ma'am.
21:30To make matters worse, it has been reported that the north shoulder of Tip 7 has moved and the village
21:35is ready for immediate evacuation.
21:37Mechanical diggers are out of action, bogged down in the soggy mud.
21:41And the military have been brought in to help.
21:44Now, given all this, I was hoping I might persuade you to go.
21:55One of the most unfortunate things about being sovereign I have discovered is that you've paralysed virtually any situation you
22:02walk into.
22:02The very last thing emergency and rescue services need when they're working against the clock is a queen turning up.
22:17I'm not sure I agree.
22:20Children have died.
22:22The community is devastated.
22:26What precisely would you have me do?
22:32We'll comfort people.
22:34Put on a show.
22:36The Crown doesn't do that.
22:41I didn't say put on a show.
22:43I said comfort people.
23:01Your Majesty.
23:08You're not afraid of this.
23:36You shouldn't.
23:39morning darling tea would anyone object if i had something stronger coffee no i was thinking
23:46whiskey margaret it's nine o'clock yes i know but it's not morning not my world anyway
23:55tony court in the small hours from a poor box in the middle of nowhere
24:07that's me can you do something for me you told me to go into the children's bedrooms
24:16and kiss them while they slept
24:24as soon as he got to abban he went straight to the school
24:38it was unimaginably awful
24:43miners used to digging for coal now digging to reach their children
24:53many of them spent several hours stuck under the mud beside dead friends
24:58buried alive running out of there
25:04he then went to the mortuary where people were waiting to identify the children's bodies
25:12nurses and salvation army volunteers they were writing a description of each adult
25:17each child noting any possessions they found in their pockets like like a handkerchief or
25:27sweets anything to help identify them
25:45and from there i went to the hospital
25:49but there he comforted a man
25:51he was holding his son's school cap
25:56after the hospitals he wanted to walk back to the house where he's due to stay
26:02but he carried on walking
26:06and walking
26:20well i've never heard him like that
26:26i hope i never do again
26:38We have Geoffrey Morgan from the National Coal Board
26:42I'm George Thomas, Minister of State for Wales
26:45here to answer our question
26:47Will you both accept responsibility?
26:51National Coal Board cannot accept responsibility for the weather
26:56Abnormal levels of rainfall have created extraordinary conditions
27:01You've known about the spring under the tip for years
27:05I wrote to you
27:06So did I
27:08That's what's caused this, not rainfall
27:10And nothing was done
27:12Buried alive by the National Coal Board
27:15That's what I want to see written on my child's desk
27:20What about financial assistance?
27:22We've got people in dire need now
27:26When's government going to step in?
27:30Let us be quite clear
27:34A dreadful tragedy has taken place
27:37But blame for that
27:39Cannot be placed at the door of the Labour Party
27:42Tip number seven
27:43Was built in 1958
27:45When the Labour Party wasn't in power
27:49I had a visit today
27:51From certain members of the cabinet
27:54You need to tell me who
27:56Who are concerned that this is all turning political
27:59Of course it's turning political
28:02And they want you to do something to deflect the blame
28:05Their view is
28:06If the Labour government pay the price for this tragedy
28:09And the Tories make political capital from it
28:12It would be obscene
28:13And a betrayal
28:14Not just of the people of South Wales
28:16But of all of us in the movement
28:18We've been waiting for this for too long, Harold
28:21Thirteen years in opposition
28:24And now we're finally in power
28:26In government
28:27We cannot allow ourselves
28:29To be crucified on the altar of public opinion
28:32Over something that isn't our fault
28:34Oh, when people are angry
28:36They throw stones at their leaders
28:38Then it's the duty
28:39Not just to deflect that anger
28:40But to show solidarity with our supporters
28:43Oh
28:45This is grief, Marcia
28:46It's injustice
28:48It's just another in a long list of injustices
28:50There's parents grieving their children
28:53It's also cold-hearted refusal
28:55To accept responsibility
28:57By the people who are to blame
28:58The Tories
29:00And now they're making us the scapegoats
29:02What do you want me to do about it?
29:05Make sure they take the blame
29:08And if you can't blame it on the Tories
29:10And you won't press it in the House
29:12And you can't go after the NCB
29:14Until the tribunal is over
29:15Then perhaps
29:16We should look
29:18For another establishment figure
29:20To deflect negative attention
29:24Who?
29:26Her
29:28The Queen
29:30But you must admit
29:31Her behaviour is symptomatic
29:33Of establishment neglect
29:35Her behaviour is unfortunate
29:38You went to see her today, didn't you?
29:41Yes
29:41And you asked her again to go?
29:44Yes
29:46And what did she say?
29:47The Crown doesn't go?
29:50Something like that
29:51The Duke of Edinburgh is now going
29:55They pulled him away from some duck shoot
29:57Yes, but she isn't
30:00Perhaps there's good reason for that
30:02Maybe she finds that kind of situation difficult
30:07Losing your children is difficult
30:11Losing brothers and sisters is difficult
30:15Living in a mining village
30:16Where the coal boards abandons you
30:18Is difficult
30:19And instead of sticking the knife in her
30:21And allowing us all to vent our anger
30:23At someone cold-hearted
30:24You'd sooner let your own team take the blame
30:27You're pathetic
30:28You disgust me
30:29So you keep telling me
30:30If you ever want to be a real leader
30:33A real man
30:34A real socialist
30:36You're going to have to grow some balls
30:40The MCB
30:42Is a creation of the Labour Party
30:48This is a government-made disaster
30:51This is a government-made disaster
30:53Take responsibility
31:01This is a government-made disaster
31:46And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes
31:51And there shall be no more death
31:55Neither sorrow nor crying
31:58Neither shall there be any more pain
32:03For the former things are passed away
32:10Fear not
32:11For I am with thee
32:13He shall feed his flock like a shepherd
32:17He shall gather the lambs with his arm
32:20And carry them in his bosom
32:22And shall gently leave those that are with young
32:26And the streets of the city
32:28Shall be full of boys and girls
32:30Playing in the streets thereof
32:33And they shall be mine
32:35Saith the Lord of hosts
32:38In that day when I make up my jewels
32:41And I will spare them
32:43As a man spareth his own son that serveth him
32:48I saw four angels standing
32:51On the four corners of the earth
32:55I heard a voice from heaven
33:00He to the love of my soul
33:07Let me to thy bosom fly
33:12While the nearer waters roll
33:18While the tempest still is high
33:23Other refuge have I none
33:29And my helpless soul on thee
33:35Leave me not alone
33:41Still support and comfort me
33:47All my trust on thee this day
33:52All my help from thee I pray
33:58Come on my way
34:02I pray
34:51How was it?
34:53Extraordinary.
34:58Grief, the anger at the government, at the co-board, at God too.
35:06Eighty-one children were buried today.
35:10The rage in all the faces, behind all the guys.
35:16They didn't smash things up. They didn't fight in the streets.
35:21What did they do?
35:22They sang. The whole community.
35:27It's the most astonishing thing I've ever heard.
35:37Did you weep?
35:41Did I weep?
35:47What kind of question is that?
35:50Just a question. Did you weep?
35:54I might have wept, yes.
35:56Are you going to tell me it was inappropriate?
35:59And the fact is, anyone who heard that hymn today would not just have wept.
36:09It would have been broken into a thousand tiny pieces.
36:37I see you.
36:41Thank you for letting me know.
36:47We've had a tip-off from a friendly newspaper editor.
36:51The government, determined not to take the blame for Aberfan,
36:55have decided to refocus the subject of the national conversation,
37:02and as briefed newspapers as that.
37:07One person has been conspicuously absent from Aberfan,
37:11and that is our Queen.
37:13The scandalous lack of care and interest,
37:15one can only assume it is that by our head of state,
37:19is symptomatic of a lack of care from the traditional establishment,
37:23not just for the people of Wales,
37:25but for the whole working class.
37:36And the Prime Minister gave that his blessing?
37:40I think we have to assume so.
37:57I think we have to say that.
38:02Good luck.
38:11He wants to say something about him.
38:15On arrival at RAF St. Athan,
38:18you will be received by Serkena Trehern,
38:21Lord-Lieutenant for Glamorgan,
38:22and taken via car to the school disaster site in Aberfan.
38:28Then on to the Bithania Chapel for the presentation of the heroes and survivors of the disaster.
38:35There will then be a visit to the cemetery, where you will lay a wreath.
38:39And finally, a visit to the home of a local miner, Thomas Edwards, who lost relatives in the disaster,
38:45and scheduled conversations with several other grieving families.
38:50A whole trip should be approximately two and a half hours.
38:54Without wishing to prompt your majesty, you may wish to consider that this is Wales, not England.
39:02A display of emotion would not just be considered appropriate. It's expected.
39:19It's expected.
39:20It's expected.
39:46It's expected.
42:04Thomas and Gwen Edwards' mum, whose home this is, they lost their two children, and this is Howell, Gwen's father,
42:14who managed to rescue one of the grandchildren.
42:18Sarah, she has something for you, ma'am.
42:25From the remaining children of Abelan.
42:59We're so glad to have you.
43:02Oh, wow.
43:04Can I have you, ma'am?
43:05Say this, ma'am.
43:10It's very young.
43:39The Duke of Edinburgh.
43:40Sarah said the family sung a hymn when they buried their children.
43:45Yes, ma'am.
43:48Is there any way I might hear it?
43:50I'm sure we can find a recording.
43:55And ask the Prime Minister to come and see me as soon as possible.
43:59Yes, ma'am.
44:04Yes, ma'am.
44:28We're so glad to have you.
44:47The Prime Minister, Your Majesty.
44:50Your Majesty.
45:02Churchill would have had the character to do it face-to-face.
45:07Come to think of it, so would Anthony Eden and Harold Macmillan.
45:12Each of them would have had the courage to express their anger to me directly.
45:16None of them would ever have resorted to going behind my back like that.
45:23I have it on authority you tipped off journalists
45:26that I was letting the side down by not going to Aberfan.
45:30Never.
45:31It wasn't you?
45:32No, ma'am.
45:37But perhaps one or two of my colleagues
45:41concerned at the anger being directed at the government...
45:44Broke ranks.
45:45Took matters into their own hands.
45:50It's possible.
46:04Perhaps they're right.
46:06The people of Aberfan deserved a prompt response.
46:09They didn't get one.
46:11They deserved a display of compassion, of empathy from their Queen.
46:15And they got it yesterday.
46:16They got nothing.
46:19I dabbed a bone-dry eye, and by some miracle, no one noticed.
46:32After the Blitz, when we visited hospitals, I saw what my parents, the King and Queen, saw.
46:40They wept.
46:43I couldn't.
46:45Well, you were a child.
46:48What do you expect?
46:49Not just as a child.
46:50When my grandmother, Queen Mary, whom I loved very much, when she died, nothing.
47:05Well, if she'd been ill a long time, it had been expected.
47:09When I had my first child, a moment of such significance for every mother.
47:23I have known for some time there is something wrong with me.
47:28Not wrong.
47:30Deficient, then.
47:32How else would you describe it when something is missing?
47:40These meetings are confidential, yes.
47:46I have never done a day's manual work in my life.
47:51Not one.
47:52I am an academic.
47:54A privileged Oxford Dom.
47:57Not a worker.
47:59I don't like beer.
48:01I prefer brandy.
48:04I prefer wild salmon to tinned salmon.
48:08Chateaubriand to stained kidney pie.
48:12And I don't like pipe smoking.
48:15I far prefer cigars.
48:19But cigars are a symbol of capitalist privilege.
48:23So, I smoke a pipe.
48:26On the campaign trail and on television.
48:29It makes me more approachable.
48:35Likeable.
48:40We can't be everything to everyone and still be true to ourselves.
48:46We do what we have to do as leaders.
48:49That's our job.
48:51Our job is to calm more crises than we create.
48:56That's our job and you do it very well indeed.
49:01And in a way, your absence of emotion is a blessing.
49:07No one needs hysteria from a head of state.
49:14The truth is, we barely need humanity.
49:33Your majesty.
49:34Prime Minister.
49:38Your majesty.
49:39Your majesty.
49:43I don't know.
50:32I don't know.
50:39I don't know.
50:56I don't know.
51:26I don't know.

53:01I don't know.
53:04I don't know.
53:05I don't know.
53:34I don't know.
54:06I don't know.
54:43I don't know.
55:09I don't know.
