Transcript
00:28You
00:34Bob Hawke, if you win the election next week, which all the polls predict, one of your first public acts
00:42as Prime Minister will be to welcome Prince Charles and the Princess of Wales and young Prince William.
00:47Does that prospect fill you with enthusiasm?
00:51I don't regard it as the most important thing I'm going to have to do in the first month in
00:56office.
00:59But yes, they are coming. I've had the opportunity of meeting Charles on a number of occasions. I find him
01:07a nice young bloke.
01:11Is he the sort of man you'd like to be the King of Australia?
01:14Look, I don't think we'll be talking about kings or monarchy here in Australia much longer. You know, we're past
01:21that now, aren't we? We're a bit more mature.
01:24You know my position on this. It's no secret. I respect and admire the Queen enormously.
01:33The desire is simply to have a head of state that embodies and represents Australia's values and traditions.
01:41A head of state that looks like us, sounds like us, thinks like us.
01:47As opposed to?
01:48Well, one of them, a POM.
01:51You know, an unelected non-Australian who lives on the other side of the world and for all their good
01:57intentions is a different breed.
02:00You wouldn't put a pig in charge of a herd of prime beef cattle.
02:04Even if it did look good in a Twinset and Portage.
02:11Your Majesty, the results of the Australian general election.
02:17Oh, good news or bad?
02:19Mr Hawke by a landslide.
02:21Oh dear, the one who wants us out.
02:22Prayed so.
02:23The rough, tough former trade union negotiator and the proud holder of the world record for beer drinking.
02:28A yard of ale in a sconce pot in 11 seconds.
02:30Oh, I don't know what that is. Sounds very impressive.
02:33Well, it's a lot of beer. Very quickly. Tea total now, I believe, ma'am.
02:37A great relief to everyone, I should imagine.
02:39Especially Mrs Hawke. Is there a Mrs Hawke?
02:42Yes, there is. Hazel.
02:43Ah, Hazel. Stranger, I think, to name a child after a tree.
02:46Especially a Northern Hemisphere tree.
02:49I suppose it does put the pressure on them, rather.
02:52On who, ma'am?
02:54The Prince and Princess of Wales and their forthcoming tour.
02:58Do you think they'll be all right?
02:59In fact, I know one shouldn't listen to gossip, but I had lunch with Princess Margaret the other day.
03:04There's growing concern among those who chatter at Kensington Palace.
03:08You thought we didn't listen to chatter?
03:09I listened to nothing else.
03:12About the Princess of Wales.
03:16She's struggling to cope, apparently.
03:20Wretched in the marriage.
03:24And, if rumours are to be believed, she's, uh, doing things to herself.
03:30What kind of things?
03:39People do the strangest things when they're unhappy.
03:48I heard she was insisting on taking the baby with them on the tour.
03:50What for?
03:52As a stabilising influence.
03:53Since when has a baby ever been a stabilising influence on anything?
03:58We never took the children anywhere.
04:01When we went to Australia in 1954, we left them at home for five months.
04:06And you suppose that might have had consequences?
04:09On what?
04:10The tour was a triumph.
04:17I should probably ask Charles and Diana to come and see me.
04:21This tour was too important.
04:24This tour was too important.
04:36This tour was too important.

05:56Parker Bowes. Perhaps she could help
05:58them tell it. All right, sir.
06:04The bear
06:04hunter goes deep into the Siberian woods.
06:07Suddenly, he sees
06:08an enormous bear.
06:10The hunter raises his gun
06:13and bang! He shoots.
06:15The bear disappears
06:16from view. Got him, he
06:18thinks. But then he feels a tap on the
06:20shoulder. He looks up to see the
06:22bear who says, no one takes a shot
06:24at me and gets away with it.
06:26Your choice.
06:28Either I can tear you to pieces and devour
06:30you now, or... Or
06:32you can drop your trousers, bend
06:34over and let me have my way with you.
06:40The hunter pulls down his trousers and the bear
06:42does his worst.
06:45Afterwards, the hunter
06:46hobbles into town.
06:48Somewhat bow-legged. Yes.
06:51But he buys a much bigger gun
06:52and goes back into the woods.
06:54And it isn't long before he sees the bear
06:56again. He raises his gun.
06:58Bang! Farts.
07:00But when the smoke clears...
07:02the bear is nowhere to be seen.
07:05Caught him, the hunter thinks.
07:07But a moment later,
07:09he feels another tap on the shoulder
07:10and the bear says...
07:12You know what to do.
07:15Now, after the bear's
07:16thought it was,
07:17the hunter heads back in town again
07:19and buys an even bigger gun.
07:21A bazooka?
07:21Yes!
07:22He goes back into the woods,
07:23he sees the bear,
07:24he takes aim and fires.
07:25Boom!
07:27But when the smoke clears,
07:30the hunter looks up
07:31to see the bear standing over him.
07:33And the bear says...
07:37You're not really in this
07:38for the hunting, are you?
07:49I wanted to wish you both luck
07:50and asked Sir Sonny
07:52to join us today
07:53to stress again
07:54the importance of the trip.
07:55Thank you, ma'am.
07:57As you know,
07:57Australia is one of the most
07:59important and influential
08:01members of the Commonwealth.
08:03If they were to strike out
08:05and assert their independence,
08:06the worry is other countries
08:08could fall like dominoes.
08:10You're too young to remember,
08:11but we also toured Australia
08:13and New Zealand in 1954.
08:15Yes.
08:16It was long and hot
08:18and arduous.
08:19Yes.
08:20But we worked together.
08:22As a team.
08:24And in the end, I think
08:26it wasn't only a success politically.
08:30It brought us very close.
08:33Yes.
08:36And as husband and wife,
08:38we would wish the same for you.
08:40Mm-hmm.
08:49It's all right.
08:49Mommy's here.
08:50It's you, babe.
08:51We've got the rocks.
08:54We'll be all right
08:55once we get to the table.
08:58I'll serve you a shoulder,
08:59with you.
09:05Then on to Ayers Rock
09:06on the 23rd,
09:09Sydney on the 28th,
09:12before Brisbane,
09:13Tasmania and Canberra
09:15for an audience
09:15with the Prime Minister
09:16and his wife.
09:18Then the tour moves
09:18to New Zealand.
09:19There's an awful lot
09:20of moving around.
09:21A baby needs stability.
09:23And perhaps for that reason,
09:26the baby was never intended
09:27to be part of the trip.
09:28I always made it
09:29perfectly clear.
09:30No baby, no me.
09:31And everyone accepted that
09:32and as I understand,
09:33has worked very hard
09:34to change plans
09:35that were set in stone.
09:37And now,
09:37instead of being separated
09:38for six weeks,
09:40it's just, uh,
09:42how long?
09:43The first two weeks.
09:44What?
09:46When the tour
09:47is at its most arduous.
09:48Where will William be then?
09:50Woomagama.
09:51Where?
09:52It's a sheep station
09:52in New South Wales.
09:54Whose idea was this?
09:56Mine, ma'am.
09:57Do you have children?
09:59No, ma'am.
10:00Why does that not
10:01come as a surprise?
10:02Diana!
10:03Come with me.
10:04Ma'am?
10:05Please.
10:13What do you see?
10:16Miss Royal Highness
10:17Prince William.
10:18That's a title.
10:19You can't see a title.
10:21Very well.
10:22I see a baby boy.
10:24Asleep or awake?
10:26Awake.
10:27Loud or quiet?
10:29Quiet.
10:29Angry or calm?
10:31Calm.
10:32Ugly or beautiful?
10:34It's just a question,
10:35Mr. Adee.
10:35Nothing to be frightened of.
10:37Is the child ugly?
10:39No.
10:40Then can we agree?
10:41That this child
10:41is the opposite of ugly.
10:43Can we say
10:43he's a beautiful child?
10:44I'm busy, ma'am.
10:45What is your point?
10:46My point
10:47is that this child
10:48is not just beautiful.
10:49This child is perfect
10:50in every single way.
10:52So why should you
10:53expect me,
10:53as his mother,
10:54to be without him
10:55for one second,
10:56let alone two weeks?
10:57Because you married
10:57the Prince of Wales, ma'am.
10:59And that is an act
11:00of service
11:01to the Crown
11:02and to the country
11:02which you signed up to
11:04willingly and with open eyes.
11:05And you
11:06are the Princess of Wales.
11:08And the greatest act
11:09of service
11:10that I can give
11:10to the Crown
11:11as Princess
11:12is not to be
11:13some meat little wife
11:14following the great prince
11:15around like some smiling doll,
11:17but to be a living,
11:18breathing, present mother
11:19bringing up this child
11:21in the hopes
11:21that the boy
11:21that will one day
11:22become king
11:23still has a vestige
11:24of humanity in him
11:25because God knows
11:26he's not going to be getting it
11:27from any of his courtiers.
11:34Mummy's here.
11:40Mummy's here.
11:45Uh, New Zealand.
11:47Yes, New Zealand.
11:52Welcome to Alice Springs.
12:16Alice, come on.
12:18You have to go.
12:38I understand before we arrived,
12:40you received
12:40about a month's worth
12:42of rain in a week.
12:44Of course, in Britain,
12:45we call that summer.
12:50Seriously, my wife and I,
12:51we couldn't be more
12:53delighted to be here.
12:56Question for the princess.
12:57What part of the tour
12:58are you most looking forward to?
13:00Oh, gosh.
13:02Um, there's so many.
13:05Um, we're going to
13:06a glamorous ball in Sydney.
13:07Yeah.
13:12And, um...
13:14Oh, we're going to visit
13:17the Royal Botanical Gardens
13:18in Sydney.
13:19Oh, God.
13:20I think we're going
13:20on a pleasure cruise
13:22on some river.
13:25Um, and then we're going
13:27to, uh, we're going
13:28to visit Ayers Dock.
13:31Rock.
13:32Ayers, Ayers Rock.
13:38What about the cost
13:39of the trip?
13:39At a time when Australia
13:40is experiencing
13:41extreme weather,
13:42you know, and the money
13:43could be spent
13:44on the victims.
13:45I'm afraid that's not
13:46really my department.
13:48She's good with glamorous
13:49balls.
13:52Ayers Rock or Ayers Dock?
13:54Apparently, they're
13:55a protest plan
13:56for their visit to Canberra.
13:58A growing backlash
13:59about the expense
14:00of the trip.
14:04Maybe now's the moment.
14:101788, the first fleet
14:11landed at Sydney Cove.
14:13Two long centuries
14:15of subjugation
14:16by Mother Crown.
14:17And we are still
14:18unable to cut
14:20the apron strings
14:21and stand on
14:21our own two feet.
14:23Why?
14:24Because there has
14:25never been
14:26the tipping point
14:27where we finally
14:29say enough.
14:33But, uh,
14:35five will get you
14:36ten, it'll be
14:36this jug-eared
14:38bonehead
14:38that pushes us
14:39all over the edge.
14:41And Australia
14:42gets to be free
14:45once and for all.
14:48that's all for now.
14:49Thank you all
14:50very much.
15:03An hospitable Perth.
15:05Fresh, alert,
15:06scrubbed by the sun.
15:07City of Australia's
15:08tomorrow.
15:12Into Queensland.
15:14Named for another
15:15great queen
15:16four generations back.
15:32What's this?
15:33Australia, 1954.
15:35I wanted to remind myself.
15:38Ha!
15:39One of your greatest hits.
15:40Yes, I think so.
15:43How hot it was.
15:45Do you remember?
15:45Yes, one could hardly
15:46sleep at night.
15:48No.
15:53Look at the size
15:54of those crowds.
15:57Head of the Commonwealth.
15:59Defender of the faith.
16:06Sydney, over a million
16:07people turned out.
16:08To see their
16:09beautiful new queen.
16:10Now she's old and dumpy.
16:12They want to get rid of her.
16:13Not old and dumpy.
16:14Experienced and mature.
16:18Which is why
16:19you should have gone yourself.
16:20Instead of sending out
16:21the B-team.
16:23This was always designed
16:24to be Charles' tour.
16:25As Prince of Wales
16:26he has to start sometime.
16:28Then send him to
16:28the Bahamas or Seychelles.
16:30Not Australia and New Zealand.
16:33Some countries are
16:34too important
16:36to send out the
16:36understanding.
16:38Of the unity
16:39of crown and people.
16:42And the nation waits.
16:52They're all hands
16:53over here.
16:53Towards the cameras please.
16:55Diana.
16:55Maybe get in closer
16:57together if possible.
16:58Diana, over this way.
16:58That's great, thank you.
17:00Can you do some big smiles please.
17:02Can we get some waves
17:03for the Australians?
17:05Diana.
17:06Your Royal Highness.
17:06This way.
17:07You're going up to the top today.
17:20Charles.
17:24Charles.
17:24Charles.
17:26I can't.
17:27The heat.
17:28I feel dizzy.
17:32You all right there?
17:33I think I need to go
17:34and sit down.
17:36Can't you put yourself together?
17:37What up?
17:38What up?
17:39You feeling all right, Diana?
17:40Princess.
17:41You in the heat?
17:41You all right, princess?
17:43At this point
17:43the princess seemed to struggle.
17:45The English rose
17:46wilting in the heat perhaps.
17:48It's pathetic.
17:50She's pathetic.
17:52It's so critical
17:54we get this tour
17:56absolutely right
17:57and yet
17:58she's so weak
18:00and fragile.
18:02One can't rely on her
18:03for the simplest thing.
18:05Letting the side down
18:06wherever she goes.
18:08How would I get through
18:09the next six weeks
18:10without you?
18:11By ringing me every day.
18:14Letting me cheer you up.
18:17You're going to be brilliant.
18:19God, I miss you, my darling.
18:21Your adulthood.
18:23If Diana had one ounce
18:24of the strength of character
18:25that you seemed to display
18:26at every turn
18:27then perhaps we could rescue her.
18:30God, now what?
18:32Do you understand?
18:33It never ends.
18:35I'll call you back.
18:37We have to reorganize
18:38police, schools,
18:39couriers, military,
18:40security...
18:41I don't care.
18:41I don't care about any of that.
18:44It's intolerable.
18:45What's intolerable?
18:46I don't expect you to understand.
18:47I just need him to let me go
18:49wherever it is
18:50they've taken my son.
18:51Margo, it's on the other side
18:52of the country.
18:53I explained to her,
18:54Royal Highness.
18:55We are just five days
18:56into a very important tour
18:57which has been years
18:58in the planning.
18:59We can't just change things
19:00around willy-nilly.
19:01And I told him
19:02that if people expect me
19:03to continue with this tour
19:04for another minute
19:05then I need to see
19:06my son first.
19:09Our son.
19:43Hello, Your Highness.
19:45I'm sorry.
19:47William?
19:49William!
19:50William!
19:53Thank you so much. Has he been all right?
19:55He's been home.
19:56Hi, darling. Hello.
19:58How are you?
20:00Yes.
20:03Oh, I missed you so much.
20:05Yes.
20:08Hey, Kenny, Kenny.
20:11Want to go to Daddy?
20:13William, can we have him here?
20:14Crown somewhere.
20:15Who does he look like?
20:17One of his favourite toys.
20:19Is he more Spencer or Windsor?
20:21Oh, William, William.
20:23Come on, man.
20:24Oh, that's lovely.
20:27Good day.
20:28I'm a performer.
20:29I'm a performer.
20:30I'm to Debbie.
20:34He's doing quite well.
20:38There you are.
20:40Close your eyes.
20:41Come on.
21:10Gone down?
21:12Yes, finally.
21:14Exhausted after his performance.
21:17The star.
21:19Crashing and bashing into everything.
21:22The basher.
21:23The mini-tornado.
21:27Will you eat?
21:29They made somewhat unimaginatively for a sheep station.
21:33Shepherd's pie.
21:37I'm not hungry.
21:59What?
22:02I wanted to talk to you.
22:04I've had some thoughts.
22:07About?
22:07advice? Us.
22:11I have some things I'd like to discuss too. Would you like to go first?
22:16We'd make a nice change. What does that mean? It means you always go
22:19first. You're not poppycock. You're the Prince of Wales. You're born to go first.
22:28Are you even remotely aware of how bad things have got for me?
22:33I'm not blind.
22:35I can see how unhappy you are.
22:39How thin you've become.
22:44Trust me, you don't know the half of it.
22:46I know more than you think.
22:50People talk. The staff.
22:54And I was very saddened.
22:59Horrified by what I learned.
23:03So what do you want from me?
23:08To be heard.
23:11I'm listening.
23:12No more than that.
23:15To be understood.
23:17Appreciated.
23:19I don't need endless flattery.
23:21No one wants that.
23:23But I am trying my hardest to please you.
23:25To live up to your standards.
23:27And I don't think you have the faintest idea of what it's like to feel this way.
23:31To be constantly overlooked.
23:34Ignored. Unappreciated.
23:34I know what being overlooked feels like better than anyone.
23:37I've spent my whole life being unthanked.
23:42Unappreciated. Uncared for.
23:43And if I've been cold or distant with you,
23:47perhaps it's because I don't feel truly understood by you.
23:50I sometimes think you see me as an old man.
23:55Or worse, a gargoyle above the church door.
23:59Grey. Made of stone. Unemotional. But I'm not.
24:06You think I don't crave the occasional well done or...
24:11Aren't you clever?
24:12Or even just a thank you.
24:15I need encouragement and the occasional pat on the back too.
24:20Well, does that explain why you keep going to her?
24:24I'm not going to say her name.
24:26I'm worried if I do, I might spit.
24:28Camilla, what's she got to do?
24:31Well, that's what I keep asking myself.
24:33What's she got to do with anything?
24:35But obviously, she's got a lot to do with everything
24:37because you can't leave her alone.
24:39She and her husband are close friends.
24:40Not just of mine, but the whole family's.
24:42You remember I found your bracelet?
24:44The one with your nicknames engraved on it.
24:46Fred and Gladys.
24:47It was just harmless fun.
24:48Three days before our wedding, you gave that to her.
24:51And on our actual honeymoon, you wore the cufflinks that she gave you.
24:55With the interlocking initials, the two Cs,
24:57interwoven and obscenely entwined like lovers.
25:01And on the same honeymoon, a photograph of her falls out of your diary.
25:05And then later in the year, I find your love letters.
25:07Page after page of the passion I'm not getting from you.
25:10Because you show no interest in me.
25:13You refuse to come to Highgrove where I'm happiest.
25:15Yes, because she is there.
25:17Oh, and not just her, but the gardens and the polo and the hunts.
25:21And the boring old philosophers and father substitutes
25:23who patronize me and ignore me, but love her presumably.
25:28Which is why the two of you are perfect for each other.
25:30So where do I fit in?
25:32You fit in because you're my wife.
25:36And...
25:39Because...
25:41I love you.
25:51I...
25:53I do...
25:54I do.
25:59Gosh.
26:07So...
26:09How are we going to solve it?
26:14Well...
26:15Well, I suppose...
26:17I suppose we've got to learn to give it to each other on a more regular basis.
26:24The encouragement, I mean.
26:26Well, and the other thing.
26:27Well, yes, that too.
26:29But I still think you're gorgeous.
26:32The cleverest, handsomest man in every room.
26:35Do you really?
26:37Oh, pathetic.
26:38But I do need that sometimes.
26:42And you look gorgeous too.
26:44Your beauty, your radiance is a great, shining, spectacular miracle.
26:51When I see the light in people's faces when they look at you,
26:53it makes me realise that I'm the luckiest man in the world,
26:56and we're the luckiest family in the world.
26:59It makes me want to ring the Queen back in London and say,
27:02Can you hear that, Mummy?
27:03Listen to that.
27:04It's a hundred decibels louder than anything you ever got.
27:06Chew on that.
27:07Choke on that.
27:11You know, I think this might be the most important conversation we've ever had.
27:16Yes.
27:16And the solution is so simple.
27:19Any time either of us feels like we're not getting what we need,
27:22we simply need to give that very thing to the other.
27:26Because if you learn anything from today, it's...
27:28We both need the same as each other.
27:31To be encouraged.
27:34To be supported.
27:37To be appreciated.
27:41To be loved.
27:44Yes.
27:47A toast.
27:48To a first start.
27:50A new beginning.
27:52Happy Easter, my darling.
28:04Happy Easter, my darling.
28:07Happy Easter, my darling.
28:09Happy Easter.
28:17You're the only one one.
28:20I'm just joking.
28:22I'm just joking.
28:23I'm just joking.
28:23What's this?
28:32The first leg of the royal tour has come to an end.
28:35The prince and princess have seen a fair slice of the Northern Territory.
28:38The royal couple have urged 2,000, the well-wishers were there to greet them.
28:41But the most horrible welcome king was governor general and the prime minister.
28:47We're absolutely delighted to be here, thank you sir.
28:49Hours before they were due to arrive in the city, tens of thousands of people began lining the streets from
28:54the airport.
28:55By now the place was really beginning to pick up and so too was the public's reaction.
29:00More than five and a half thousand people cued patiently to take up the best possible position around the ropes.
29:06Here the reception of the royal couple were getting.
29:10There was a frenzy of waving hands and flags as the prince and princess appeared, holding hands in the back
29:15of their royal's voice.
29:15The crowds were desperate to get a glimpse of the perfect couple, the prince and princess of Wales.
29:25Even overseas reporters who've seen it all before seemed a little taken aback by the sheer scale.
29:36Please welcome the heir to the throne and Australia's future king, His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales.
29:51Thank you, Sir Jim.
29:54In case you've been living in a cave, perhaps I should introduce you to a most remarkable woman and mother
30:00who I am proud to call her wife.
30:04ROLAND AXIE
30:05Thanks a few spirits and chill cases who world at naught.
30:25When I give up has a beautiful- einen-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an
30:32-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an
30:32-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an-an.
30:33You'd be like heaven to touch
30:36I want to hold you so much
30:41Ever unless love has arrived
30:45And I thank God I'm alive
30:49You're just too good to be true
30:53You take my eyes and you
30:56That's what you give me a show as hell
30:58Yeah, I know
31:14I love you, baby
31:17And if it's bright or bright
31:19I need you, baby
31:21To warm and lonely night
31:23I love you, baby
31:25Rest in me when I say
31:30Oh, pretty, baby
31:32Please don't bring me down
31:34I pray you're free, baby
31:36Now that I've found this place
31:39Let me love you, baby
31:42Let me love you
31:44Love you, Lucy
31:46What to love for you?
31:50Let me love you, Lucy
31:50What to take you, Lucy?
31:52What to do you, Mary ?
32:23Good morning, Your Royal Highness.
32:31A phone call from Mrs. Parker Bowles.
32:36Would you like to return it?
32:43No, no I wouldn't.
32:47Thank you, Edward.
32:48That'll be all.
32:50You had fun together at the ball.
32:52Oh, we did.
32:53I could have danced all night.
32:55So, has that been the highlight?
32:57Well, that's hard to say.
32:59We greatly enjoyed seeing Sydney Harbour and Charles tried body surfing on Bondi Beach.
33:06But I suppose the greatest highlight has been, well, meeting all of you, the people of Australia.
33:15You've made us feel so welcome, so at home.
33:17Well, perhaps because you've been so refreshing.
33:21You're not what we expect from royalty.
33:23Well, that's because I don't think of myself as royalty.
33:27You know, first and foremost, I'm a wife and a mother.
33:30That's what's most important to me.
33:32I mean, she really is a wonderful mother.
33:35And how's William getting along?
33:38He's having a magical time there.
33:39So he likes Australia?
33:40Well, let's put it like this.
33:42His favourite cuddly toy used to be a whale.
33:44Well, since coming here, it's been firmly supplanted by a koala.
33:4810,000 people were waiting to catch sight of the prince and princess.
33:52Along the way, the princess was overwhelmed with posies and small gifts from equally small children.
33:58No, he's very busy at the moment and cannot comment.
34:01Mr. Hawke will not be answering any questions about this at present.
34:15I'm sorry.
34:17I'm sorry.
34:18I'm sorry.
34:20I'm sorry.
34:21I'm sorry.
34:32I'm sorry.
34:37Why don't I take one of you?
34:39I'm sorry.
34:40I'm sorry.
34:41I'm sorry.
34:42I'm sorry.
34:44I'm sorry.
34:46I'm sorry.
34:48I'm sorry.
35:00I'm sorry.
35:02I'm sorry.
35:08I'm sorry.
35:11Oh
35:41Oh
36:21There's a problem no one foresaw
36:24Huge crowds wherever they go
36:26Some even bigger I'm told
36:28Than those you got back in the 18th century
36:30Or whenever you went
36:311954
36:32And I very much doubt it
36:34Along with raves in all the newspapers
36:36For Diana's beauty
36:38And charm
36:40And most of all her motherhood
36:43I heard she'd been hysterical
36:45Clinging to the poor baby like a life raft
36:47Evidently that clinging is what the Australians
36:50Have responded to
36:51What a natural mother she is
36:54How physical
36:56And caring
36:58Anyway why is all this a problem
36:59You and I both know how much Charles craves reassurance
37:02And attention
37:03And praise
37:05This tour of Australia and New Zealand
37:08Was supposed to be his grand debut
37:09His moment in the sun
37:11His future king
37:15Just saying
37:20Hello thank you
37:22Hello hello thank you
37:23Thank you
37:24Thank you
37:24Hello
37:26Where's Princess Di?
37:28She's busy working on my friends
37:29She has to put up with me
37:37Are you going in for a swim map?
37:39I don't think so
37:41Which one do you fancy giving you the kiss of life?
37:43Let's hope it doesn't come to that
37:46How about it boys?
37:47Any volunteers?
37:49I think you've got some admirers
37:50Can we get you guys all closer?
37:52Just remember
37:53No touching
37:54No looking
37:55To me or them
37:59That was picked up nicely there by his royal house
38:01And off it goes
38:02Number five is in there
38:04Trying to cut him off
38:07Prince Charles here
38:08Prince of Wales
38:09He's playing on a borrowed pony
38:10Called Apollo
38:13A strong hit from number two there
38:15And here comes Prince Charles
38:17Swooping from his position in the back
38:19He's catching
38:19Everybody ready?
38:22Get set
38:23Go
38:23Go
38:38Prince Charles
38:39You're so kind of your family
38:41Are you a real princess?
38:43What do you put me in five hours?
38:46That worked
38:46As they move from Queensland to Tasmania
38:50The Royal Tour is going from strength to strength.
38:53And whilst it's been a great personal victory for Prince Charles,
38:58no one can deny it's the Princess of Wales
39:01who's truly captured the heart of a nation.
39:05Well, she's not stuffy like the rest of the world.
39:07Right.
39:07You get a sense of her being a real person?
39:10Yes.
39:11You've got to love her, haven't you?
39:12Do you love Charles as much as you love Diana?
39:14Yeah, she loves him.
39:15He must have something, wasn't he?
39:16She is so.
39:17And what do you think of the Princess?
39:18Yeah, she is amazing.
39:20She's just like her.
39:22Is she?
39:22Do you think you can have a cup of tea with her?
39:25Absolutely.
39:25She's really down to that side.
39:40This is great.
40:00It's a great pleasure to be able to come to Tasmania
40:02to receive such an enthusiastic and heartwarming welcome.
40:07The last time I was here was two years ago, 1981,
40:12shortly before we were married.
40:13At that time, everybody was saying,
40:16good luck and hope everything goes well
40:19and how lucky you are to be engaged as such a lovely lady.
40:24And my goodness, I am lucky enough to be married to her.
40:36That's the thing about ladies.
40:37You never quite know what they get up to when your back's turned.
40:44It's the final straw, honestly.
40:46Pulling faces, horsing around while I'm trying to do my job.
40:49I was blushing, blushing at your compliments.
40:51People were laughing at me, laughing in my face
40:54at the end of a week in which half of Australia
40:55has also been booing me.
40:57I don't deserve this.
40:59This was supposed to be my tour.
41:01My tour as Prince of Wales
41:03to shore up one of the key countries in the Commonwealth
41:05at a very delicate moment politically.
41:07And thanks to you...
41:07Thanks to me, people have shown up.
41:09Thanks to me, people are interested.
41:11No, thanks to you, people are laughing in my face.
41:14Booing the heir to the throne.
41:16Booing the crown.
41:18Oh, come on.
41:19Oh, don't do this.
41:22Please.
41:24Open the door.
41:27Charles?
41:30We still have ten days in New Zealand to get through.
41:50Welcome, Your Royal Highness.
41:52Prime Minister.
41:52Given our different perspectives,
41:55our different views
41:56on the appropriate governance of this nation,
42:00I never thought I'd find myself commiserating with you,
42:03but let's face it,
42:06she's made us both look like chumps.
42:09I don't understand.
42:14Terra Nullius.
42:16That's what your ancestor, King George III,
42:21called us when the Brits first arrived.
42:25Nobody's country.
42:29Well, by God, we were somebody's country then.
42:33And we're our own country now.
42:37When you arrived, I thought you visit might inspire Australia
42:43to finally throw off the shackles and stand on our own two feet.
42:48And no offence, but if it had just been you,
42:52you know, I might have got my wishes.
42:55Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
42:58But then, you know, she comes along.
43:04The perfect wife, the perfect princess,
43:07and the whole place goes nuts.
43:11It's the power of fairy tales.
43:17That superstar may have just set back
43:21the cause of republicanism in Australia
43:23for the foreseeable future.
43:37Let the cause, let the cause, let the cause.
43:54I don't know.
44:36Oh, my God.
44:39Oh, my God.
45:11Oh, my God.
45:12Hi, Groove.
45:15Kensington Palace.
45:35It's the Princess of Wales.
45:37I was hoping the Queen might see me.
45:39I was hoping the Queen might see me.
46:29Welcome back.
46:30Thank you, Mama.
46:32You said I should always call you that.
46:34Of course.
46:39Please.
46:40Thank you, Nigel.
46:48I've come because I don't know who to turn to anymore.
46:53I'm struggling.
46:55Struggling?
46:57I do.
46:57You've just had a triumph.
46:59I don't consider it a triumph if at the end of it my husband and I are wretchedly unhappy.
47:05Look at these pictures of you both everywhere.
47:07Are you really telling me that's unhappiness?
47:11Well, not in that moment.
47:12No.
47:13In that moment it's perfect happiness.
47:17But then behind closed doors it's a different story.
47:20He resents me.
47:21Resents the attention I get.
47:24And why is that?
47:26I don't know.
47:29I was hoping you could tell me he's your son.
47:32Because I've been a terrible mother.
47:34Is that what you've come here to tell me?
47:35No.
47:36Or the Duke of Edinburgh, a terrible father.
47:37Of course not.
47:38I struggle to understand Charles sometimes too.
47:40I think that's no secret.
47:42But us sitting here sticking knives into him isn't helpful either.
47:46And is it also possible that there is a part of you that is enjoying your own success rather too
47:50much?
47:52What is too much?
47:54A smile?
47:55A moment's happiness?
47:56Overstepping the mark is too much.
47:59I think we do all know when we've played to the gallery excessively.
48:03We know.
48:06All right.
48:08Yes.
48:10It does feel good sometimes to be cheered.
48:13It can be a comfort.
48:16Because since I've joined this family it's not been easy.
48:19I've been given no help, no support, just thrown in the deep end.
48:22And I think that people out there can sense that I've suffered.
48:25That I'm undervalued, ignored.
48:27I think it's a mistake to assume that people are feeling any sympathy for us at all.
48:30And I think it's a mistake to assume they don't.
48:35You've seen how the crowd responded to me in Australia.
48:38Here too.
48:39And instead of resenting me for it.
48:41I assure you no one resents you.
48:42Charles resents me.
48:45Anne resents me.
48:46And is it possible that you resent me too?
48:48All I want is to play for the team.
48:51You're the Princess of Wales.
48:52So of course you're part of the team.
48:54And show me.
48:56This whole thing, it starts and stops with you.
49:00You're the captain of the team.
49:02If you show me love, approval and acceptance, everyone else will follow.
49:07I think we've gone as far as we can for now.
49:10We can continue another time.
49:11Don't dismiss me, please.
49:13Don't push me away.
49:15What?
49:16Mama.
49:34That's all I want.
49:38It's all any of us want from you.
49:41Is it too much to ask?
49:59A hug?
50:01Yes.
50:02What kind of hug?
50:04A tight, rather desperate hug.
50:07I feel sick.
50:08Yes.
50:11But is it possible that she has a point?
50:15We are rather a tough bunch in this family.
50:18We don't give out much praise or love or thanks.
50:22Perhaps someone like Diana is best placed to...
50:24Hug everyone else too.
50:25To connect with the modern world.
50:28And isn't that how the crown survives?
50:31And stays relevant by changing with the times?
50:37Diana is an immature little girl who, in time, will give up her struggles, give up her fight and bend.
50:46As Philip did.
50:47As they all do.
50:49And when she bends, she will fit.
50:53And if she doesn't bend, what then?
50:56She will break.
50:59She will break.
51:36You're just too good to be true.
51:40Can't take my eyes off of you.
51:43You'd be like heaven to touch.
51:49I want to hold you so much.
51:52As long as love has arrived.
51:56And I thank God I'm alive.
52:00You're just too good to be true.
52:04Can't take my eyes off of you.
52:17I love you, baby.
52:20And if it's quite alright, I need you, baby.
52:24To warm the lonely night.
52:27I love you, baby.
52:29Trust you'll leave when I say.
52:33Oh, pretty baby, please don't bring me down, I pray.
52:38Oh, pretty baby, now that I've found you, stay.
52:42Let me love you, baby.
52:45Let me love you.
53:14Let me love you, baby.
53:43Let me love you, baby.
