00:07Yesterday morning at 2.41 a.m. at General Eisenhower's headquarters, General Jodl,
00:17the representative of the German High Command, signed the act of unconditional surrender of all
00:26German land, sea, and airports in Europe, hostilities will end officially at one minute after midnight
00:38tonight, Tuesday the 8th of May.
00:54We may allow ourselves a brief period of rejoicing, today is victory in Europe's day, long live
01:05the cause of freedom. God save the King.
01:14Ready? Margaret, I'm not sure this is a good idea.
01:17Come on, the war is over. We have to celebrate. What if something goes wrong?
01:21We'll have Porchy and Peter Townsend with us. What could possibly go wrong?
01:30We're escaping from the palace. Quick, out the servants' door before anyone sees us.
01:39We can't just break out like this. Oh shush, hurry up.
01:46Come on, girls. Hold your noses. Why?
01:54It stinks of alcohol. And sweat. It smells of life.
02:22No. Green Park or Trafalgar Square? I say the Ritz. It's where all the most elegant people go,
02:28and some G's in Worcester. Good plan. The Ritz it is.
02:31Shall we be inside the palace? Why? So we can wave to Mummy and Papa?
02:35Honestly, what's the matter with you? Can't you be irresponsible just once?
02:51Margaret? Margaret? Oh.
02:59Next week is May the 8th. Do you know, it's been over 50 years, and we've never done anything to
03:07commemorate it.
03:08What are you talking about? The Sovereign? I attend VE Day celebrations every year.
03:15No. I mean, our VE Day. It was quite a night. Do you remember?
03:25Of course I remember. We almost lost you. And then we very much found you. The real you. The you
03:39that you gave up in order to be the other you.
03:43Yes, all right. Don't you miss her? She was so much fun.
03:48Oh, it ain't my fault. Oh, it ain't my fault.
03:56And as I recall, we swore to keep the events of that evening secret.
04:05Gin.
04:07Well done.
04:09Revenge?
04:10I can't, I'm afraid. Early start. I'm expected in Clapham Junction, first thing.
04:17Whatever for?
04:18Something to do with the local council's closed circuit television system.
04:25Oh. Do you not have anything tomorrow? No. But, must eat soon. At the weekend. Good.
04:40Why? I always think that's where you're happiest. Come on, dogs. Come on.
04:48Come on.
05:07Green with lust. And sick with shyness. Let me lick your lacquer, Jones.
05:17God, oh, gosh, your royal highness. Put your finger up my nose.
05:29John Betjeman was so mad for me that his friend Morris Bower wrote this filthy bone about it.
05:39Pin your teeth upon my dress. Plant my head with watercress. Only you can make me happy. Wrap me in
05:51a woolen nap.
05:53Thank you, ma'am.
06:08Thank you, ma'am.
06:11Thank you, ma'am.
06:14In...
06:14In a plush and...
06:16A plaited pram.
06:21Wheel me round St. James's, ma'am.
06:26Let your...
06:29Ma'am?
06:33Let your...
06:40Ma'am, is she on?
06:43Is she on?
06:46She's alive.
06:46She's alive.
06:47Oh, my God.
06:48Oh, my God.
06:49Oh, my God.
06:51Oh, my God.
07:25Oh, my God.
07:26Oh, my God.
07:33Oh, my God.
07:36Oh, my God.
07:37Oh, my God.
07:40Oh, my God.
07:42Oh, my God.
07:43Oh, my God.
07:43Oh, my God.
07:44Oh, my God.
07:44Oh, my God.
07:44Oh, my God.
07:45Oh, my God.
07:45Oh, my God.
08:17Princess Margaret, Your Majesty.
08:20Hello? Margaret, what on earth happened?
08:25I'm afraid I had a teeny tiny stroke.
08:31All a bit of a shock.
08:33One minute I'm in full flow at the Lawrences,
08:37and the next minute I'm in an air ambulance,
08:41unable to feel my arms and legs.
08:44Where are you now?
08:47In hospital.
08:49In Barbados.
08:51Right.
08:53You poor thing.
08:55The doctors assure me I'm going to be fine.
09:01What? I can't hear you properly.
09:02That's because my mouth is still numb.
09:06I could bite off my own tongue, and I wouldn't feel a thing.
09:12Are we bringing you home?
09:14Yes, tomorrow, apparently, for further tests and edible food.
09:20With any luck.
09:22I'm smiling as I say that.
09:27Not that you'd notice.
09:32But goodbye, Lilibus.
09:35See you tomorrow.
10:32Well, I'm happy to say the stroke was relatively mild, ma'am.
10:35And, uh, we ought to be able to treat the condition effectively with just an aspirin a day to, uh,
10:40thin the blood, along with statins to reduce your cholesterol and atenolol to lower your blood pressure.
10:46I do.
10:48But, uh, these alone will not be enough, ma'am, to prevent the risk of a second, more serious stroke.
10:58You will need to look more closely at your lifestyle.
11:01And make one or two modifications.
11:07So, no more Chesterfields, no more whiskey, no more sweet treats.
11:18Just lemon barley water, nicotine gum, and lots of rehabilitation exercises.
11:33Get out of here.
11:35I'm not willing to.
11:37Get in some money, too.
11:41A flea and a fly in a fool were in prison, so what could they do?
11:56A flea and a fly in a fool.
12:14Oh, why don't you do right?
12:15I'm still alive!
12:17Like some other men do.
12:23Get out of here.
12:25Get me some money, too.
12:30Why don't you do right?
12:33Like some other men do.
12:37Like some other men do.
12:41Like some other men do.
12:51Oh.
12:53Oh.
12:56Bad time?
12:58Good time?
13:02Honestly.
13:03I take a nap, and everyone thinks I've kicked the bucket.
13:08And now you arrive, unannounced, with anxious looks.
13:13I just wanted to see how you are.
13:15I'm well.
13:18Of course you are.
13:19But I do hope you're taking it easy.
13:21And cancelling official engagements?
13:25Some of them, yes.
13:27No need to cancel all of them.
13:30You know how I hate an empty diary.
13:34See?
13:35There's that look again.
13:38I'm fine, Lilibet.
13:40Bouncing back.
13:41On the way up.
13:44Not on the way out.
14:09Mum, thank you.
14:28I thought perhaps a gentle stroll, nice siesta, and then dinner on the terrace, just the two of us.
14:36Stroll, yes.
14:39But then, I'd like a picnic on the beach with the whole gang, cocktails at the Cotton Club, and dinner,
14:47followed by General Bacchanalia at Basil's.
14:50I'm only here for two weeks.
14:53I intend to make the most of it.
14:55All right.
14:57You're the boss.
14:59I most...
15:01Certainly am.
15:26I'm here for two weeks.
15:50Let's go.
16:28Oh
16:30Oh
17:28Oh
17:33The doctor saw instantly that I'd had another stroke
17:39But that, as it turns out, was the least of my problems
17:43Because even after he'd stabilised me with a cocktail of drugs
17:49The soles of my feet were so burnt
17:52It meant I couldn't stand, never mind walk
17:56Then why didn't you come home sooner?
17:58Because all manner of humiliating preparations needed to be made
18:05A car had to be specially modified
18:11Handrails put all over the place
18:14Like a home for geriatrics
18:17I don't have handrails anywhere
18:19Now I'm back
18:21The doctors want to use leeches on my feet
18:25As an anticoagulant
18:33Her voice is a little odd, but what did she say?
18:35I think it was anticoagulant
18:36You've given me the velcro slippers instead of shoes
18:42Gone are the days of heels
18:45Gone are the days of feet, for that matter
18:49Why not try some gentle exercise?
18:53You could use the palace pool
18:55Exercise can help with moods, too
18:57I'd rather die than do exercise
19:02And, seeing as I'm going to be dead soon anyway
19:05I thought I might as well go out with a bang
19:10It's my 70th birthday
19:12This year, and I've decided I want to celebrate it with a nice big party
19:18What?
19:20At the Ritz
19:22Because we love the Ritz
19:24Don't we, Lilibet?
19:27Do we?
19:28We do
19:29We do
19:29We do
19:31We have such special memories
19:40Whoo
19:40Whoo
19:41Whoo
19:41Whoo
19:41Whoo
19:42Whoo
19:42Whoo
19:43Whoo
19:44Have I missed something?
19:47Whoo
19:49Whoo
19:52Whoo
19:55Look at how I'm dressed
19:57Do you think they all have seen?
19:59Of course
20:00Just tell them who you are
20:02That is the one thing I'm not going to do
20:03Then you're going to have to bet your eyelids a little.
20:08Go on.
20:18Evening, miss. Here you go.
20:25How do you pull the elixir?
20:28In you go.
20:30Will you look at that?
20:32Well, what do we do now?
20:35Dive in, I suppose.
20:48Who's this, please?
20:50Cheers on the gears.
20:55Cheers!
20:56Cheers!
21:00I said so.
21:01Come on.
21:02Come back here.
21:06Cheers!
21:10Cheers!
21:22I'm going to put this in the cloak.
21:23Oh, let me escort you.
21:25No need.
21:31Hello, miss.
21:39Washita?
21:40Thanks.
21:44Excuse me, ma'am.
21:45Sorry.
21:47Have a nice evening.
21:49Wait.
21:51Don't go up there.
21:52Come with us.
21:54Way more fun.
21:59I mean, there's a lot of pressure.
22:03We'll...
22:20I wouldn't go down there if I were you.
22:23Americans.
22:24Ever heard of the Jitterbug?
22:26Well, I know about the Doodlebug.
22:28It's a dance.
22:29Band here, and with good reason.
22:31Comes from Harlem.
22:33Where?
22:34A ghetto in New York.
22:39Wait.
22:40Don't I recognize you?
22:42I don't think so.
22:52Right.
22:54I'll be off.
22:55Will you make my apologies?
22:57I will.
22:58And wish the birthday girl a very happy birthday.
23:02I will.
23:03You taking anyone?
23:05Anne.
23:06And Porchy will be there.
23:08Good old Porchy.
23:10Yes, good old Porchy.
23:12Always good company.
23:13Never lets one down.
23:19Is everything all right?
23:23Sorry.
23:25I just find myself worrying about Margaret all the time.
23:29Well, hasn't it always been like that?
23:32Yes.
23:33I suppose it has.
24:05Sorry, ma'am.
24:08Go on.
24:19No, ma'am.
24:24No, ma'am.
24:34No, ma'am.
24:37No, ma'am.
24:39I'm sorry.
24:53I'm sorry.
24:58No, ma'am.
25:07As you know, I've spent much of my time recently lying in hospital beds, sitting in wheelchairs, staring out of
25:23windows at that little patch of blue that prisoners call the sky.
25:33But one thing that throughout it all sustained me, memories.
25:46As it turns out, I have rather fond memories of quite a few evenings at the Ritz that I'd like
25:59to share with you.
26:00One in particular comes to mind when a very different side of the young Princess Elizabeth was revealed.
26:16And I'm sure everyone would love to hear about that.
26:19Yes, they would, Lilibet, which is why I'm telling it.
26:24It would miss the point entirely of why we're all here tonight to celebrate you.
26:34As a child, I always felt sorry for children who didn't have a brother or a sister.
26:39From the day she was born, Margaret Rose has been my constant companion.
26:45We were rarely able to see other children.
26:48We relied on one another and, like Juno's swans, we were inseparable.
26:55We shared a room, wore the same clothes, enjoyed the same activities.
27:02In particular, managing our collection of wooden horses on wheels that we would groom and water and race.
27:13And whenever we got into trouble, Margaret would blame everything on her imaginary friend, Cousin Halifax.
27:21Yes, I would.
27:23There really wasn't anything Cousin Halifax wouldn't do.
27:28Sounding the air raid bell to wake the guards.
27:31Hiding the gardener's tools.
27:33He really was very mischievous.
27:37It's not always easy, growing up in a family where one person has to wear the crown, being the number
27:45two.
27:47But Margaret has been my ally, day in, day out.
27:52And that's the person I wanted to tell you about tonight.
27:55Not the dazzling, you all know that already.
27:57But the dutiful.
28:01Never wavering.
28:04My lifelong companion and support.
28:08Without whom?
28:15Well.
28:19It would be unimaginable.
28:21It would be unimaginable.
28:24Dearest Margaret.
28:28Many happy returns.
28:32Happy birthday.
28:39I don't know whether to be touched or cross.
28:43Why?
28:45I've always wanted to sing your praises in public.
28:48Well, it was both uncalled for and rather thrilling.
28:54Everyone is being so nice.
28:58One should be seriously ill more often.
29:03Listen to that cough.
29:05You haven't started smoking again.
29:07No.
29:08Of course not.
29:10That was...
29:12Cousin Halifax.
29:18Good night, Lilibet.
29:20Good night.
29:26Good night.
29:37Good night.
29:42Again.
29:43Good night.
29:45Good night.
30:19Oh, my God.
30:28Oh, my God.
30:54Oh, my God.
30:57Oh, my God.
30:59Oh, my God.
30:59Oh, my God.
31:20Oh, my God.
31:26Oh, my God.
31:30Stop it.
31:33We'll have you up and out of here in no time.
31:35No.
31:37I'm afraid it's serious this time.
31:42I can feel it or can't feel it or can't feel it or can't feel it or can't feel anything
31:53or see anything.
31:56My body's...
32:23My body's...
32:26Now, you know, a very pretty...
32:37Now, you're talking.
32:39In your feet.
32:40Mm-hmm.
33:11Mm-hmm.
33:40Mm-hmm.
34:21We're on the air with a special program to bring you an update on the appalling and
34:25incredible events that were played out today in the United States.
34:28A day when terrorists struck at the very heart of the world's most powerful country.
34:33A day of unimaginable chaos and confusion.
34:36A day when untold thousands were feared dead.
34:39The terrorist weapons, four hijacked passenger planes.
34:43Two crashed with awful effects into the World Trade Center in New York.
34:47The third into the Pentagon in Washington.
34:49The fourth in Pennsylvania.
34:51America spends billions of dollars every year gathering and assessing intelligence reports
34:55prevent the fact that might be a part of the day we live here.
35:01A San Francisco husband slept through his wife's call from the World Trade Center.
35:09She left her last message to him on the answering machine.
35:14There was really only one thing left for her to say.
35:17I love you.
35:18She said it over and over before the line went dead.
35:23And then, oblivion.
35:29So sad.
35:31And such terrible news about Lord Carnarvon, too.
35:38Bored you.
35:40Why?
35:41What's happened?
35:43He collapsed while he was watching the news.
35:46Heart attack.
35:50Poor Jean.
35:52Poor you, too.
35:55He was such a special friend.
36:03He would bring horse news, which is the only news I ever really want to hear.
36:09He used to hold up his mobile phone when horse bidding was underway so I could hear the action.
36:15He was devoted to you.
36:20Now all those closest to you are abandoning you one by one.
36:27What are you talking about?
36:29Portie.
36:30Yes.
36:32Mummy.
36:33Soon.
36:35Yes.
36:37Me.
36:38Don't you dare.
36:39It's the truth.
36:42I'm not thrilled about it.
36:44In fact, I'm furious about it.
36:47I'm not ready to leave this particular party.
36:52But we need to discuss it.
36:55I've written a very detailed plan for my funeral.
36:59You know what a planner I am.
37:02And I want your reassurance that it will go exactly as I intend.
37:13I want to wear my flower dress, not some horrid black thing.
37:20And please don't let them put red lipstick on me.
37:25For the chapel, I want roses and tulips.
37:30And I want the finale, the Swan Lake, playing on the organs, people arrive.
37:40And one more thing, very important, is, of course, promise me that I will actually be dead
37:53when they close the coffin.
37:58Oh, Mum.
38:05Bertie, old egg, said young Eustace.
38:09Fancy meeting you here.
38:10The one man in London who can support us in the style we're accustomed to.
38:16Oh, by the way, you've never met old Dogface, have you?
38:20Dogface?
38:21This is my cousin Bertie.
38:24This is silly.
38:25Oh, it's wonderful.
38:28Go on.
38:30What are you doing in London, I asked.
38:32Oh, buzzing round.
38:34We're just up for the day.
38:36Flying visit, strictly unofficial.
38:39We oil back on the 310.
38:42We oil back on the 310.
38:45And now, touching on that lunch you very decently volunteered to stand us,
38:51which shall it be?
38:52Ritz?
38:53Savoy?
38:54Carlton?
38:55Ritz, please.
38:57Because we love the Ritz, don't we?
39:00Honestly.
39:01You and the Ritz.
39:02No.
39:03You and the Ritz.
39:06If people don't know about that night, they'll never fully understand.
39:10How irresponsible I was.
39:14The scale of the sacrifice you've made.
39:19How much of your true self you've locked up, hidden away.
39:28You caused havoc that night.
39:31It was the end of the war.
39:48It was the end of the war.
41:19We're actually fighting upstairs and we should go.
41:21Why? Down here is the place to be.
41:29And why is that?
41:31Because down here there's no rank or background. Just music.
41:42Well, in that case...
41:58Well, no, it ain't my fault.
42:02I said no, it ain't my fault.
42:07Hell no, it ain't my fault.
42:13You blame her, I blame her, it ain't my fault.
42:16Let's go!
42:18Well, no, it ain't my fault.
42:22I said no, it ain't my fault.
42:27Well, no, it ain't my fault.
42:32You blame her, I blame her, it ain't my fault.
42:36Alright.
42:37No, it ain't my fault.
42:41But no, it ain't my fault.
42:45I said no, it ain't my fault.
42:50I said no, it ain't my fault.
42:51You blame her, I blame her, it ain't my fault.
43:11You two haven't seen Elizabeth, have you?
43:13Stop worrying about her.
43:14She never does anything irresponsible.
43:16Look, she's been a long time.
43:18I'm going to look for her.
43:22I'll come with you, Porchy.
43:27Alright, tweet for me.
43:40No, it ain't my fault.
43:44Yay!
43:45I love you, it ain't my fault.
43:49No, it ain't my fault.
43:54You'll be right, I get my fault.
43:55You can't leave me.
43:55I'm gonna be right, I'm gonna be right.
43:58You can't leave me.
44:03Come on, Portie.
44:04Let's get her out of here.
44:06No, don't.
44:08Leave her.
44:10Look how happy she is.
44:12Oh!
44:13She's a river!
44:28She's a river!
45:37You dark horse.
45:38You'd have known you could jive.
45:41There must have been 50 men chasing you out.
45:44Don't exaggerate.
45:46What?
45:47I said don't exaggerate.
45:49It's hard to talk.
45:51When you're sloshed.
45:52When you're chewing gum.
45:56When did you get that?
45:58Well, I'm not sure.
46:01I think it might have come after a kiss.
46:03Minivert!
46:04I didn't intend to kiss him.
46:06This is what everyone else was doing.
46:07They didn't want to be rude.
46:10I think Portie might have seen got a bit cross.
46:13Oh dear.
46:28Look.
46:30The sun is rising.
46:40What will this future hold?
46:43For us all?
46:51Aren't you coming?
46:53We can join Mummy and Papa for breakfast.
46:59I'm afraid not.
47:03But I will always be by your side.
47:09No matter what.
47:34Couldn't sleep and wouldn't sleep.
47:39When love came and told me I shouldn't sleep.
47:45Bewitched, bothered, and bewildered am I.
47:56Lost my heart, but what a bit.
48:01He is cold, I agree.
48:05Quiet.
48:07He can laugh, but I love it.
48:11Although the laugh's on me.
48:17I'll sing to him each spring to him.
48:23And long for the day when I'll cling to him.
48:29Bewitched, bothered, and bewildered am I.
48:39Crying.
48:42Oh, my God.
49:11You
50:08You
50:18You
