00:25At John Brown's yard on Clydeside,
00:27the 4,000-ton Royal Yacht is ready for launching by Her Majesty.
00:37Thousands of dock workers, many of whom helped to build the Royal Craft,
00:40give the Queen a warm reception as she walks past them to inspect the yacht.
00:44For many months, there has been speculation about the name of the new yacht,
00:48and there's an air of expectancy as Her Majesty steps forward
00:51to perform the actual launching ceremony.
00:57I am delighted to join you in Clydebank today,
01:01for the launch of this, the latest Royal Yacht.
01:05I hope that this brand-new vessel, like your brand-new Queen,
01:12will prove to be dependable and constant,
01:16capable of weathering any storm.
01:19I now take great pride in naming this ship Britannia.
01:30I wish success to her, and to all who sail in her.
01:36Her Majesty releases the traditional bottle,
01:39not of champagne this time, but of empire wine.
01:50Soon, the Britannia will become a home for the Queen,
01:53the Duke and their children.
02:09Ah, please, Your Majesty.
02:11Ah.
02:13And again.
02:15Ah.
02:17Lovely. Thank you.
02:29Deep breath in.
02:31And out.
02:34And again.
02:44122 over 80.
02:52And if we could just pop the stockings off, Your Majesty.
02:58Still getting the aches on the balls of the feet?
03:02I'm at the risk of sounding like a broken record.
03:05The less time you spend on your feet, the better.
03:08Occupational hazard, I'm afraid.
03:10Now, if I can invite you to come this way.
03:23Nine and a half stone, as opposed to last year's...
03:26Not sure I want to know.
03:27Nine stone.
03:28And the year befores?
03:30Eight and three quarters.
03:32It makes no sense.
03:34In terms of diet and behaviour, I've not changed a thing.
03:37As we get older, weight stays on, and it's harder to shift.
03:40For men, they say a stone a decade.
03:42And for women?
03:44Maybe half a stone.
03:46All right. Half a stone by the end of summer.
03:51Scotland, as always?
03:52Oh, yes. Heavenly Scotland.
03:54Though slightly less heavenly without the cream teas.
03:56Is Balmoral your favourite home, would you say?
04:00Probably my second.
04:05That's a rather personal question.
04:08I do apologise, Mamma.
04:12I don't know what I was thinking.
04:14There is another.
04:16That's even more special to me.
04:19o o o o.
04:31But I do apologise.
04:36What was that?
04:37I Don't realise that there's...
04:38Alright, so...
04:43do depend on my favourite honour...
04:46what did I do?
04:47I just would...
04:47the sunday times today sir regarding a poll they've conducted about the monarchy and it's interesting
04:53when talking about the queen again and again the same words came up irrelevant old expensive
05:00out of touch quite distinct from the way people talked about you sir really should i cover my ears
05:07no on the contrary they described you as young energetic modern empathetic and when asked almost
05:16half believe you would make an excellent king and would support an early application by the queen
05:21in your favor the story is running when sunday week sir when i'll be in italy with the family
05:31well actually we think the timing of the holiday is ideal as you know a big part of your appeal
05:37as future king is the prospect of the princess of wales as queen yes so we've taken the liberty of
05:43briefing one or two friendly newspapers that it's a second honeymoon right
06:08that's what they said those are the words they used second honeymoon

08:20Those two are so much apart of the high-growth furniture, Camilla might as well be here herself.
08:25If one were to be charitable for a moment, they've been through a lot recently with their youngest.
08:30Oh, I know. My goddaughter, Leonora.
08:33What's the latest?
08:34She's in a mission. You know how to this one can never be sure.

11:11with a final stop in olbia on sardinia for a private view of the museo archeologico there
11:19and were there any other requests some beaches perhaps there will of course be beaches along the
11:26way and water sports and noisy water sports and shopping
11:37shopping it's possible some people might like to go shopping one day who show of hands would
11:43anyone apart from diana like to go shopping and the entire point of being on a beautiful yacht like
11:51this is that you can escape from hordes of people indulging in retailers recreation

12:21thanks for sticking up for me what's brave

13:12what a blessing that would be
13:16for everyone
13:20who's that what was what that noise
13:27there was a mechanical noise
13:33there it is again right i'm off
13:38one last day cutting ribbons in morecam then feet up for the summer
13:56as patron of the church urban fund i am aware of the vast challenges faced by this community and many
14:04others across the diocese the milk marketing board is among the most enduring and resilient of britain's
14:13commercial enterprises this state-of-the-art dairy complex is testament to the continuing vitality of british others
14:26it has been a great pleasure to learn more about intermodal containers representing a great
14:3330 percent of the european freight market it is clear that intermodal containers are
14:40the landfisher's ticket to a bright future
15:06How long has the pressure been down on that ground?
15:08Since this morning, sir.
15:22It shouldn't come as a surprise she's falling apart.
15:25She's a creature of another age.
15:28Effectively, a World War II cruiser with soft furnishings.
15:32In many ways, she's obsolete.
15:34Don't say that.
15:36What are the options?
15:37Well, we've trouble with the main engine.
15:40Stubborn boilers out of service.
15:44Sentimentally, I think we'd all prefer to stick with her.
15:47I should say.
15:48But we have to be realistic about the cost of repairs when she's so obviously past her best.
15:55Are you seeing the Prime Minister in Balmoral next week?
15:58Yes.
15:58He's coming with his wife, Dora.
16:01No, that's not right.
16:03Nora.
16:05Norma.
16:05Well, you might want to bring it up with him then.
16:08I'll talk to the Admiral and come up with some figures.
16:12But it's the first time I've started to consider the unthinkable.
16:15What's that?
16:16A replacement.
16:20Built in AD 27 by...
16:25Tiberius?
16:26Tiberius?
16:27Wow.
16:27The most magnificent of world imperial residences here in Capri.
16:34Some people say that Tiberius escaped to Capri because he could no longer endure the machinations
16:39of his mother's court in Rome.
16:41Not something I could ever understand.
16:44But after a long, successful career as a general...
17:07It's an extraordinary how two people's understanding of fun could be so wholly different.
17:20When they suggested to us, Diana and I, that we should reassure the public about the strength
17:27of our marriage by coming on a second honeymoon, I said to them, you obviously weren't at the first one.
17:35On Britannia, wasn't it?
17:36Yes.
17:36I know the Queen thinks the Royal Yacht is perfect in every way, but as an intimate space
17:42for newlyweds, it's like a floating observation tank.
17:48Every awkward silence and stilted conversation between bride and glue glaringly obvious to
17:56each and every one of the 200 crew.
18:06Did you just say bride and glue?
18:09Did I?
18:17The irony is, I'm the only person this marriage does make gloomy.
18:21It seems to lift the rest of the world up.
18:26When we're together in public, I can't deny it is magical, the perfect team, yet in private.
18:39Listen to me, after everything you've been through with your girl.
18:43Oh.
18:47She let me comb her hair last week.
18:51First time since it's grown back.
18:52Do you know it's come back curly?
18:56I found myself slightly ashamed to think I actually preferred it that way.
19:03It's a dreadful, wicked disease.
19:08You've all been so wonderfully strong.
19:14Is it important?
19:15The Sunday time, sir?
19:18Oh, yes.
19:20I'll leave you to it.
19:25It's running tomorrow.
19:27I've managed to gain advance sight of it, and I think you'll agree it's pretty punchy.
19:47Good morning, your majesty.
19:49Good morning, Peggy.
19:52Oh, a bit wet for the arrival of the Princess Royal.
19:56Oh, she won't mind this.
20:03Good morning, your mother.
20:05My highness.
20:08Welcome aboard, your royal highness.
20:25Fellas.
20:25Robert, you've got a bit of a problem.
20:31Have the newspapers been delivered.
20:33Just arrived, sir.
20:35Has the queen gone to breakfast?
20:36On her way, sir.
20:38Make sure the Sunday Times is removed.
20:40Better still, thrown away.
20:41Under no circumstances can the queen or the Princess Royal be allowed to see it.
20:45Understood.
20:46Good morning, your majesty.
21:05You're at this effect.
21:07Move!
21:12Hello, darling.
21:13Mummy.
21:20Sorry, ma'am.
21:21You can't breathe that.
21:23Why not?
21:24It's not today's.
21:26It's yesterday's.
21:26But yesterday was Saturday.
21:28And that, I think we can all agree, is the Sunday Times.
21:32I mean last week's.
21:33What?
21:33But this is today's Sunday Telegraph, today's Mail on Sunday, and the latest Racing Post.
21:38Oh, yes, please.
22:08I'm sorry to disturb, sir.
22:12But I thought you should be aware of this.
22:22It's outrageous.
22:24She never stops.
22:25She never complains.
22:26She never puts a foot wrong.
22:28She's utterly magnificent.
22:29And they print rubbish like this.
22:32Looks like more rain on the way.
22:34I shouldn't be surprised.
22:36It is the west coast of Scotland.
22:38I don't suppose you've seen the Sunday Times.
22:41Oh, morning, Robert.
22:42Good morning, Your Majesty.
22:44Because I checked.
22:45Apparently it has been delivered.
22:48I'll look into it, ma'am.
22:50When you find it, I'll be on deck.
23:06Well, to say the article has had an impact would be an understatement.
23:10It's provoked significant debate on radio and television, with one particular phrase getting
23:15most attention.
23:16Queen Victoria's syndrome.
23:19Yes, I saw that.
23:23An aging monarch, too long on the throne, whose remoteness from the modern world has led people
23:29to grow tired not just of her, but of the monarchy itself.
23:36Any reaction from the Queen?
23:38My understanding is she hasn't seen it.
23:40They've kept it from her to protect her feelings.
23:45Doesn't that tell you everything?
23:51I'd like you to arrange a meeting with the Prime Minister as soon as we're back.
23:57Well, think of her suitable pretext.
24:06Look!
24:07It's a whale!
24:08Where?
24:11Oh, good spot!
24:14Come on, Beck.
24:15No!
24:16Look at the way it's surfacing.
24:18It's a minky.
24:19Probably smell it before we see it again, if we get any closer.
24:22Their blow smells of rotten cabbages.
24:24A stinky minky.
24:26A stinky minky.
24:33Oh!
24:34There she is!
24:36Fladder!
24:38There.
24:41Oh, yes!
24:44Like a bulrush out of a pond.
24:47Isn't she a beauty?
24:49You say so, dear.
24:53It's one of the last manned lighthouses in Scotland.
24:58Why don't we pay her a visit?
24:59Really?
25:00Must we?
25:01Come on.
25:02A bit of exercise is good for the figure.
25:03At our age, the weight does not stay off by itself.
25:06Come on.
25:07No.
25:08Listen to that.
25:38People wonder why I find lighthouses so inspiring
25:41when you get to a place like this.
25:55New inquiry?
25:57Tim?
25:58No, he's been with us for a while.
26:03What come I never noticed?
26:06Because you're married.
26:08Very technically.
26:12What's he like?
26:14Reliable.
26:16Sensible.
26:17Agreeable.
26:18Hmm.
26:20I think we ought to get back to lighthouses.
26:25Those beacons of light
26:26in an otherwise black and hopeless night
26:29that reassure the lonely mariner
26:32where they are not forgotten
26:34and we'll soon find land and home.
26:38Hope.
26:56It appears that there has to be an unfortunate curtailment to the holiday.
27:01Clash of diaries, I understand.
27:02What?
27:03His principal is due to give a lecture at the university.
27:06Shut up.
27:07There won't be any sharks.
27:08Don't you see it.
27:10What's this about us going home?
27:13It turns out there's a diary conflict
27:17through no fault of mine
27:18and I have to get back.
27:20You're supposed to be here for two weeks.
27:21Yes, I know.
27:22Don't ever.
27:23The plans change.
27:25I have a commitment at Oxford University.
27:27It isn't the university.
27:30It's a summer school for tourists.
27:31It's not essential.
27:32It is to me.
27:36This is our holiday.
27:39It's a rare opportunity for us to be together
27:41with the boys as a family.
27:42And I know you struggle with that sort of thing
27:44which is why I agreed to you
27:45bringing your friends along to entertain you.
27:48And I even agreed to do the photo call today
27:50requested by your people
27:51so the lie could be paraded to the world's media
27:53about what an adoring husband you are on one condition.
27:55What's that?
27:56That you actually are one.
28:02I'll take a picture.
28:05Many people have not heard of you.
28:21Many people have not heard of you because of chi.
28:35It's a poor boy.
28:41They're not looking for you.
28:42I'm not saying to you.
28:43How are you doing?
28:44No way?
28:47I'm not saying to you.
28:48That's enough.
28:49No way.
28:50I don't know what you are.
28:51I don't know what you are.
28:51Come on!
29:35Tens of thousands of British families. Repossessions are now at record levels.
29:40In the first half of this year, 36,600 homes were taken over by building societies.
29:53I think there's a case for saying it's the most difficult economic recession since the war,
29:58and it has struck right across the economy. It's certainly been a very difficult year.
30:06The Prime Minister, Your Royal Highness.
30:11Prime Minister.
30:14Your Royal Highness.
30:15So kindly you should come.
30:16Sir.
30:20Before we begin, I wonder, did your office let anyone at Buckingham Palace know that we were meeting?
30:25I don't believe so, sir.
30:27Probably for the best.
30:36There are two reasons I asked if I could see you today.
30:40The first, conserving our built heritage.
30:44I wonder, did you receive the copy of my book?
30:46I did.
30:48I don't suppose you found time to flick through it.
30:50Knowing we were meeting today, I made a point of it.
30:53Reading it, I'm sure you thought, what an old fogey.
30:58How stuck in the past he is with his loathing of modernism and change.
31:04Not at all.
31:05Why?
31:08You'd have been right to. I am fixated by the past. By tradition. Preserving it. Conserving it.
31:17But none of us is exclusively one thing. Human beings are too interesting for that.
31:22You yourself are full of fascinating contradictions.
31:25Sir?
31:26Coming from Brixton, a multicultural working class part of London, one might have expected you either to have concealed your
31:33past in order to fit in with the Tories or to have a more socialist viewpoint and become a rising
31:39star in the Labour Party.
31:40I have never felt that because of my background I should not be a conservative.
31:45Precisely. You not only refuse to deny your contradictions, you don't see them as contradictions.
31:52I don't.
31:53Which makes you a far more interesting, more complex, more impressive person.
32:01And I hope that the same can be said of me.
32:09Which brings me to the second reason for our meeting.
32:12You saw the, uh, the recent poll and Sunday Times article about the Queen.
32:20I did.
32:22Queen Victoria Syndrome.
32:27What were your conclusions?
32:31It's just a poll, sir.
32:34True.
32:36Not a reassuring one.
32:38Polls come and go.
32:40Dangerous to ignore them.
32:42Equally dangerous to be guided by them.
32:55There must have been many polls around the time of Mrs. Thatcher's departure.
33:03I'm sure many people wanted the Iron Lady to go on forever, but what makes the Conservative Party the successful
33:09electoral force that it is?
33:11Its instinct for renewal and its willingness to make way for someone younger.
33:19For almost 60 years, my great-great-grandfather, Edward VII, was kept waiting in the wings.
33:29It was said that Queen Victoria had no confidence in him, thought him dangerous, free-thinking.
33:38He longed to be given responsibilities, but his mother refused.
33:44Even forbade him from seeing state papers.
33:49And yet, when his time came, he proved his doubters wrong, and his dynamism, his intellect, his popular appeal made
33:57his reign a triumph.
34:00What are you saying, sir?
34:03I'm saying, what a pity it was. What a waste.
34:08That his voice, his presence, his vision wasn't incorporated earlier.
34:16It would have been so good for everybody.
34:30You're coming to Balmoral, to the Gillies Ball?
34:34Yes. Very much looking forward to it.
34:39Well, then you'll have an opportunity to, uh,
34:44judge for yourself whether this institution that we all care about so deeply
34:54is in safe hands.
35:02And now to my questions about our built heritage and rural planning regulations.
35:20We'll be like, go.
35:20We'll be like, go, go!
35:55Hello, darling.
35:59Hello, you.
36:03Have you been for a nice walk?
36:07We have, and I haven't strangled her yet, which is a miracle.
36:13We had a lovely morning. We read the newspapers.
36:17No, we didn't.
36:17Then we went on a long walk to discuss it all.
36:20Don't you look pretty? Doesn't she look pretty, Mum?
36:22Yes.
36:36You asked to see me, ma'am?
36:38I did.
36:40Why is everyone being odd?
36:43Ma'am?
36:44It started on the royal yacht.
36:47What started, ma'am?
36:48People being odd with me.
36:52You're being odd now.
36:54Am I?
36:57What's going on?
37:01An unkind, silly, inaccurate article in the Sunday Times.
37:07Not worth thinking about.
37:09Don't you think I ought to be the judge of that?
37:13Do you still have a copy?
37:17Do you still have a copy?
37:32Come on, Doctor.
37:35Come on, Nilton.
37:36Nilton.
37:37Come on, sir.
37:51Come on, Nilton.
37:53Hold on.
37:54Let's go.
37:55Let's go.
38:25Let's go.
39:05Let's go.
39:08Let's go.
39:11Let's go.
39:11Let's go.
39:41It can take as long as two weeks on the Royal Yacht.
39:45Wonderful way to decompress.
39:48And, as my great-great-grandmother, who started the Western Isles tour, said,
39:53let time slow down so that one breathes freedom and peace, making one forget the world and its sad turmoil.
40:09I am aware the comparison between Queen Victoria and me has been made recently in the newspapers and intended as
40:15criticism.
40:17What people fail to understand is, I see any similarity with Queen Victoria as a compliment.
40:22Attributes people use to describe her, constancy, stability, calm, duty. I would be proud to have described me.
40:34And speaking of the Royal Yacht, it has become clear that a small refit, teeny tiny little refreshment and refurbishment
40:42is required to keep her in tip-top shape.
40:45I am aware the costs for its maintenance are borne by the palace, and so here I am coming to
40:53you, Prime Minister, on bended knee for the sign-off.
40:57But I am hoping that will be a formality.
41:05I am just mindful that before she left office, Mrs Thatcher bequeathed the palace an extremely generous civil list settlement.
41:14A deal that leaves the Royal Family richer than ever before.
41:19Given that this deal was designed precisely to forestall any awkward public debate on Royal spending,
41:26I feel bound to at least raise the question of whether there's a way you might consider bearing the cost
41:33yourselves.
41:35It's just with the Royal Yacht being perceived as something of a luxury,
41:39there is a danger the palace could be seen to be asking for too much.
41:43But she isn't a luxury.
41:45Isn't she?
41:45Prime Minister, there has always been a Royal Yacht going all the way back to King Charles II.
41:51She is a central and indispensable part of the way the Crown serves the nation.
41:57And the revenue she has generated doing so is incalculable.
42:00But we're in the midst of a global recession.
42:02Each penny of public spending is closely scrutinized.
42:08I worry that the government spending public money on the refurbishment of a yacht might backfire.
42:17On us both.
42:26When I came to the throne, all my palaces were inherited.
42:32Windsor, Balmoral, Sandringham.
42:35They all bear the stamp of my predecessors.
42:38Only Britannia have I truly been able to make my own.
42:43Perhaps for that reason, the connection between me and the yacht is very much deeper than a mode of transport
42:49or even a home.
42:52From the design of the Hull, the smallest piece of China, she is a floating, seagoing expression of me.
43:07I hope we can agree that as sovereign, I have made very few requests, let alone demands, in return of
43:13the service I have given this country.
43:16Perhaps the reason I have held back is in the hope that when I actually do, people don't just take
43:22it seriously.
43:23They do as I ask, without question.
43:27So, I would like this government's reassurance, your reassurance, that the costs for the refurbishments will be met.
43:34And for you to inform me as soon as the arrangements are in place.
43:41I understand.
43:48Now, the ghillie's ball tonight.
43:50I have to ask, are you a dancer?
43:55Trying to turn the Ukraine into an independent European country.
43:59They want to break away from Moscow to turn their back on the leadership of Gorbachev and Yeltsin.
44:16To be aimed at the West in a bid to earn hard currency, the other Soviet republics have...
44:27I know.
44:35I'll see you around the rest of the world.
44:37This is one of my favorite streets.
44:40I'm sorry.
44:41I'll see you there.
44:42I'm sorry.
44:43I'm sorry.
44:44I'm sorry.
44:46I'm sorry.
44:47I'm sorry.
44:48I'm sorry.
44:49I'm sorry.
45:28Your Majesty, the Queen.
45:43Will you do me the honour, Prime Minister?
45:45The honour would be mine, Your Majesty.
45:57Amazing.
45:59Here we go.
46:45Good night.
46:46Good night, sir.
46:47Good night.
47:57I was just telling the Prime Minister that these things can get quite giddy.
48:02Not that I ever witness any of it.
48:04I'm afraid the real fun only starts when I go to bed.
48:07Can I count on you for a full report in the morning?
48:09You can, Your Majesty.
48:11Good night.
48:11Good night.
48:11Can we slip away?
48:14Our Majesty, the Queen!
48:34The Prime Minister, I understand you, um, you had an audience with the Queen today.
48:40I know I shouldn't ask, but, uh, I just hope it plays well with the public.
48:46Sir?
48:48The, uh, the refit to Britannia.
48:52That is what she asked you for.
48:54Sir?
48:56Sometimes these old things, uh, they're too costly to keep repairing.
49:05I'll leave you with that thought.
49:09Shall we call it a night?
49:11I can't.
49:11Not yet.
49:12Will you dance with me before I scream?
49:17I'm so jealous you get to jump on a plane and escape out of here tomorrow back to normality.
49:22Now I'm stuck here for another two weeks.
49:25But you've just had a lovely family holiday.
49:27You and the Prince of Wales look so happy.
49:31You can judge the health of a family by the state of the marriages within it.
49:35And look.
49:37Anne and Mark.
49:39Look at Andrew and Sarah.
49:42Charles and me.
49:45I don't give any of us more than six months.
49:50And what happens then when the family falls apart?
49:54I say the institution falls apart.
49:57And then...
50:01He goes!
50:04We're presentation, here it is, this morning.
50:07It's not.
50:07It's amazing.
50:15It's amazing.
50:32What's the matter?
50:39When you imagine the problems you might be confronted with this Prime Minister,
50:43you imagine tricky sessions at PMQs,
50:46the economy in free-fall, going to war.
50:52You never imagine this.
50:57The House of Windsor should be binding the nation together,
51:03setting an example of idealized family life.
51:07Instead, the senior royals seem dangerously deluded and out of touch.
51:15The junior royals,
51:17feckless,
51:19entitled and lost.
51:24And the Prince of Wales, impatient for a bigger role in public life,
51:28fails to appreciate that his one great asset is his wife.
51:34It's a situation that cannot help but affect the stability of the country.
51:41And what makes it worse is it feels it's all about to erupt.
51:48On my watch.
51:50On my watch.
51:52On my watch.
51:55On my watch.
52:14On my watch.
52:15On my watch.
52:43On my watch.
