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.
04:20This tour was too important.
04:50MUSIC CONTINUES
05:19MUSIC CONTINUES
05:48MUSIC CONTINUES
05:51Does anyone know the story of the Russian bear hunter?
05:55I'm afraid I've already told Mrs. Parker Bowles.
05:57Perhaps she could help me tell it.
05:59All right, sir.
06:04The bear hunter goes deep into the Siberian woods.
06:07Suddenly, he sees...
06:08An enormous bear.
06:10The hunter raises his gun and bang, he shoots.
06:15The bear disappears from view.
06:17Got him, he thinks.
06:19But then he feels a tap on the shoulder.
06:21He looks up to see the bear who says...
06:23No one takes a shot at me and gets away with it.
06:26Your choice.
06:28Either I can tear you to pieces and devour you now, or...
06:31Or, you can drop your trousers, bend over and let me have my way with you.
06:40The hunter pulls down his trousers and the bear does his worst.
06:45Afterwards, the hunter hobbles into town.
06:48Somewhat bow-legged.
06:50Yes.
06:51And he buys a much bigger gun and goes back into the woods.
06:54And it isn't long before he sees the bear again.
06:56He raises his gun.
06:58Bang!
06:59Farts.
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, he feels another tap on the shoulder.
07:10And the bear says...
07:12You know what to do.
07:15Now, after the bear's done his worst,
07:18the hunter heads back in town again and 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 to see the bear standing over him.
07:33And the bear says...
07:37You're not really in this for the hunting, are you?
07:39LAUGHTER
07:49I wanted to wish you both luck
07:50and asked Sir Sonny to join us today
07:53to stress again the importance of the trip.
07:55Thank you, ma'am.
07:57As you know, Australia is one of the most important
08:00and influential members of the Commonwealth.
08:03If they were to strike out and assert their independence,
08:07the worry is other countries could fall like dominoes.
08:10You're too young to remember,
08:11but we also toured Australia and New Zealand in 1954.
08:15Yes.
08:16It was long and hot and arduous.
08:19Yes.
08:20But we worked together.
08:22As a team.
08:23And in the end, I think,
08:26it wasn't only a success politically.
08:29It...
08:30It brought us very close.
08:33Yes.
08:35And as husband and wife,
08:38we would wish the same for you.
08:40Mm-hmm.
08:49It's all right.
08:49It's all right.
08:49Mummy's here.
08:50It's you, babe.
08:51We've got the door.
08:52It's all right.
08:54It's all right.
08:55It'll be all right once we get to the baby.
09:05Then on to Ayers Rock on the 23rd.
09:08Uh, Sydney on the 28th.
09:11Before, uh, Brisbane, Tasmania,
09:14and Canberra for an audience with the Prime Minister
09:16and his wife.
09:17Then the tour moves to New Zealand.
09:19There's an awful lot of moving around.
09:21A baby needs stability.
09:23And, perhaps, for that reason,
09:26the baby was never intended to be part of the trip.
09:28I always made it perfectly clear.
09:30No baby, no me.
09:31And everyone accepted that,
09:32and as I understand,
09:33has worked very hard to change plans
09:35that were set in stone.
09:37And now, instead of being separated for six weeks,
09:40it's just, uh...
09:42How long?
09:43The first two weeks.
09:44What?
09:46When the tour is at its most arduous.
09:48Well, where will William be then?
09:50Wumagama.
09:51Where?
09:51It's a sheep station in 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 come as a surprise?
10:02Diana!
10:03Come with me.
10:04Ma'am?
10:05Please.
10:13What do you see?
10:16Miss Royal Highness Prince 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?
10:28Quiet.
10:30Angry or calm?
10:31Calm.
10:32Ugly or beautiful?
10:34It's just a question, Mr. Adee.
10:35Nothing to be frightened of.
10:37Is the child ugly?
10:39No.
10:39Then can we agree that this child is the opposite of ugly?
10:42Can we say he's a beautiful child?
10:44I'm busy, ma'am.
10:45What is your point?
10:46My point is that this child is not just beautiful.
10:49This child is perfect in every single way.
10:52So why should you expect me, as his mother, to be without him for one second, let alone two weeks?
10:57Because you married the Prince of Wales, ma'am.
11:00And that is an act of service to the Crown and to the country which you signed up to willingly
11:04and with open eyes.
11:05And you are the Princess of Wales.
11:08And the greatest act of service that I can give to the Crown as Princess is not to be some
11:14meat little wife following the great prince around like some smiling doll,
11:17but to be a living, breathing, present mother, bringing up this child in the hopes that the boy that will
11:22one day become king still has a vestige of humanity in him.
11:26Because God knows he's not going to be getting it from any of his courtiers.
11:35Mummy's here.
11:36Yeah.
11:36Oh.
11:46New Zealand.
11:47Yes, New Zealand.
11:52Welcome to Alice Springs.
11:54More than much rain and a wish.
11:55Hello there.
11:56Sometimes fouls.
11:56Charles, what do you mean?
12:00Hello there.
12:01Let me see you.
12:12What's that?
12:14Come on.
12:15Come on.
12:16Child, come on.
12:18You have to go.
12:38I understand before we arrived, you received about a month's worth of rain in a week.
12:44Of course, in Britain, you'd call that summer.
12:50Seriously, my wife and I, we couldn't be more delighted to be here.
12:56Question for the princess. What part of the tour are you most looking forward to?
13:00Oh, gosh. There's so many. We're going to a glamorous ball in Sydney.
13:12And, um...
13:16We're going to visit the Royal Botanical Gardens in Sydney.
13:19I think we're going on a pleasure cruise on some river.
13:25Um, and then we're going to, uh, we're going to visit Ayers Dock.
13:31Rock.
13:32Ayers Rock.
13:38What about the cost of the trip at a time when Australia is experiencing extreme weather?
13:43You know, and the money could be spent on the victims.
13:45I'm afraid that's not really my department.
13:48She's good with glamorous balls.
13:54Apparently, they're a protest plan for their visit to Canberra.
13:58A growing backlash about the expense of the trip.
14:04Maybe now's the moment.
14:091788, the first fleet landed at Sydney Cove.
14:13Two long centuries of subjugation by Mother Crown.
14:17And we are still unable to cut the apron strings and stand on our own two feet.
14:23Why?
14:24Because there has never been the tipping point where we finally say,
14:30enough.
14:33But, uh, five will get to ten.
14:36It'll be this jug-eared bonehead that pushes us all over the edge.
14:42And Australia gets to be free.
14:45Once and for all.
14:48That's all for now.
14:49Thank you all very much.
15:03And hospitable Perth.
15:05Fresh, alert, scrubbed by the sun.
15:07City of Australia's tomorrow.
15:12Into Queensland.
15:14Named for another great queen four generations back.
15:21To Brisbane.
15:22Friendly, easy-going Brisbane.
15:32What's this?
15:34Australia, 1954.
15:35I wanted to remind myself.
15:38Ha.
15:39One of your greatest hits.
15:41Yes, I think so.
15:43How hot it was.
15:45Do you remember?
15:45Yes, one could hardly sleep at night.
15:47Joining in plunderous greetings for the queen who is here at London.
15:53Look at the size of those crowds.
15:57Head of the Commonwealth.
15:59Defender of the faithful.
16:06Sydney, over a million people turned out.
16:08To see their beautiful 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.
16:15Where can I go back from?
16:18Which is why you should have gone yourself.
16:20Instead of sending out the BT.
16:23This was always designed to be Charles' tour.
16:26As Prince of Wales, he has to start sometime.
16:28Then send him to the Bahamas or Seychelles.
16:30Not Australia and New Zealand.
16:33Some countries are too important to send out the understanding.
16:38The unity of crown and people.
16:42And the nation waits.
16:45A hundred and a thousand people.
16:51No matter how many, a hundred and a hundred and a hundred people.
16:52Get your heads up!
16:53It's called the cameras, please.
16:55Maybe get in closer together if possible.
16:57Diana, over this way.
16:58Yeah, that's great.
17:00Can you do some big smiles, please?
17:02Can we get some waves from the Australians?
17:05Diana!
17:06Your Earl Highness, this way!
17:07You can be coming up to the top today.
17:20Charles?
17:24Charles!
17:25I can't.
17:27The heat.
17:28I feel dizzy.
17:33I think I need to go and sit down.
17:36Can't you pull yourself together?
17:38You feeling all right, Diana?
17:42At this point, the princess seemed to struggle.
17:45The English rose wilting in the heat, perhaps.
17:48It's pathetic.
17:50She's pathetic.
17:52It's so critical that you get this tour absolutely right.
17:57And yet, she's so weak and fragile.
18:01One can't rely on her for the simplest thing.
18:05Letting the side down wherever she goes.
18:08How would I get through the next six weeks without 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.
18:22If Diana had one ounce of the strength of character that you seem to display at every turn, then perhaps
18:28we could rescue her.
18:30God, now what?
18:33It never ends.
18:35I'll call you back.
18:37We have to reorganize police, schools, couriers, military, security...
18:41I don't care. I don't care about any of that.
18:44It's intolerable.
18:45What's intolerable?
18:46Well, I don't expect you to understand.
18:47I just need him to let me go wherever it is they've taken my son.
18:51Who, Margama? It's on the other side of the country.
18:53I explained to her, Royal Highness.
18:55We are just five days into a very important tour which has been years in the planning.
18:59We can't just change things around willy-nilly.
19:01And I told him...
19:02He hasn't made.
19:02...that if people expect me to continue with this tour for another minute, then I need to see my son
19:07first.
19:09Our son.
19:13Muscle music plays
19:13I'm still here.
19:14I'm still here, the wind.
19:30What?
19:42I saw a very poor background.
19:43Hello, Your Highness.
19:48William? William!
19:50William. William.
19:53Thank you so much. Has he been all right?
19:55He's been home.
19:56Hi, darling. Hello. How are you?
20:00Yes.
20:02Oh, I missed you so much.
20:05Yes.
20:05No!
20:10Want to go to Daddy?
20:14Crown somewhere.
20:16Who does he look like?
20:17What are his favourite toys?
20:19Is he called Spencer or Windsor?
20:21William!
20:22William!
20:23Come on, man.
20:24Oh, that's lovely.
20:27Here it is.
20:28I'm a performer.
20:30I'm to Debbie.
20:34It's doing quite well.
20:38There you are. Close your eyes.
20:41Come on.
21:06Come on.
21:10Gone down?
21:12Yes, finally.
21:15Exhausted after his performance.
21:17The star.
21:19Crashing and bashing into everything.
21:22The basher.
21:23The mini tornado.
21:27Will you eat?
21:28Yes.
21:29They made, somewhat unimaginatively for a sheep station, shepherd's pie.
21:37I'm not hungry.
21:59What?
22:02I wanted to talk to you.
22:04I've had some thoughts.
22:07A bite?
22:09Us.
22:11I have some things I'd like to discuss too.
22:14Would you like to go first?
22:16We'd make a nice change.
22:17What does that mean?
22:18It means you always go first.
22:20You're a poppycock.
22:21You're the Prince of Wales.
22:22You'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.
22:51People talk.
22:53The staff.
22:54And I was...
22:55Very saddened.
22:59Horrified by what I learned.
23:03So what do you want from me?
23:08To be heard.
23:10And I'm listening.
23:13No 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.
23:35I don't have the faintest idea.
23:35I know what being overlooked feels like better than anyone.
23:37I've spent my whole life being...
23:40unthanked.
23:42Unappreciated.
23:43Uncared for.
23:43If I've been cold or distant with you, perhaps 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.
24:00Made of stone.
24:02Unemotional.
24:03But I'm not.
24:06You think I don't crave the occasional...
24:08well done or...
24:10aren't you clever?
24:12Or even just a thank you.
24:15But I 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.
24:28Pamela, what's she got to do with it?
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 because you can't leave her alone.
24:39She and her husband are close friends, not just of mine but the whole family's.
24:42You remember I found your bracelet?
24:44The one with your nicknames engraved on it, Fred and Gladys.
24:47It was just harmless fun.
24:48The three 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 C's.
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 who patronize me and ignore me but love her presumably.
25:28Which is why the two of you are perfect for each other.
25:31So where do I fit in?
25:32You fit in because you're my wife.
25:35And...
25:40Because...
25:42I love you.
25:51I...
25:53I...
25:54I do...
25:54I do.
25:59Gosh.
26:07So...
26:09How are we going to solve it?
26:14Well...
26:15Well...
26:16Well I suppose...
26:17I suppose you've got to learn...
26:19To 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.
26:29I still think you're gorgeous.
26:32The cleverest, handsomest man in every room.
26:35Do you really?
26:38Pathetic.
26:38But I do need that sometimes.
26:41And...
26:42You look gorgeous too.
26:44Your...
26:45Beauty, your radiance is a great...
26:48Shining spectacular miracle.
26:51When I see the light in people's faces when they look at you it makes me realize that...
26:54I'm the luckiest man in the world and 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.
27:07Check 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.
27:30To be...
27:32Encouraged.
27:34To be supported.
27:37To be...
27:40Appreciated.
27:41To be loved.
27:42To be loved.
27:44Yes.
27:47A toast.
27:48To a first start.
27:50A new beginning.

29:12the prince and princess appeared holding hands in the back of their roles the crowds were desperate

31:58Let me see.
32:23Good morning, Your Royal Highness.
32:31A phone call from Mrs. Parker Bowles.
32:36Would you like to return it?
32:41No.
32:43No, I wouldn't.
32:47Thank you, Edward.
32:48That'll be all.
32:51You had fun together at the ball.
32:52We did.
32:53I could have danced all night.
32:55So, has that been the highlight?
32:57Well, that's hard to say.
32:58Um, we greatly enjoyed seeing Sydney Harbour and Charles tried body surfing on Bondi Beach.
33:05But, um, I suppose the greatest highlight has been, well, meeting all of you, the people of Australia.
33:14You'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?
33:37He'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.
33:45Since coming here, it's been firmly supplanted by a koala.
33:4910,000 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.
34:14Come on!
34:16Come on!
34:18Come on!
34:19Come on!
34:21Come on!
34:41Oh

35:34Oh
35:35Oh
35:36Oh
35:36Oh
36:21there's a problem no one foresaw huge crowds wherever they go some even bigger i'm told than
36:28as you got back in the 18th century or whenever you went 1954 and i very much started along with
36:35raves in all the newspapers for diana's beauty and charm and most of all her motherhood
36:43i heard she'd been hysterical clinging to the poor baby like a life raft evidently that clinging is
36:49what the australians have responded to what a natural mother she is how physical and caring
36:58anyway why is all this a problem you and i both know how much charles craves reassurance
37:03and attention and praise this tour of australia and new zealand was supposed to be his grand debut
37:09his moment in the sun his future king
37:12a few words prince charles always just sing

38:26back
38:26are you a real princess what do you put me in five hours
38:45that works as they move from queensland to tasmania the royal tour is going from strength to strength
38:53and whilst it's been a great personal victory for prince charles no one can deny it's the princess
39:00of wales who's truly captured the heart of a nation well she's not stuffy like the rest of the world
39:07right you get a sense of her being a real person yes you've got to love her haven't you do

39:41this is great
39:46sorry this way
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,
40:11shortly before we were married.
40:13At that time, everybody was saying good 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 has 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 to 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, our different views on the appropriate governance of this
42:00nation, I never thought I'd find myself commiserating with you, but let's face it, she's made us
42:07both look like chumps.
42:09I don't understand.
42:14Terra Nullius.
42:17That's what your ancestor, King George III, called us when the Brits first arrived.
42:25Nobody's country.
42:28Well, 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 to finally throw off the shackles
42:46and stand on our own two feet.
42:48And no offence, but if it had just been you, you know, I might have got my wishes.
42:58But then, you know, she comes along.
43:03The perfect wife, the perfect princess, and the whole place goes nuts.
43:11The power of fairy tales.
43:17That superstar may have just set back the cause of republicanism in Australia for the foreseeable future.
43:54Oh
44:02Oh
44:32Oh
45:11Hi, Groove
45:15Kensington Palace
45:35It's the Princess of Wales
45:37I 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
46:50I don't know who to turn to anymore
46:53I'm struggling
46:55Struggling?
46:57I do, to set a triumph
46:59I don't consider it a trial
47:01If at the end of it
47:02My 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
47:13No
47:13In that moment, it's perfect happiness
47:17But then behind closed doors
47:18It's a different story
47:19He 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
47:34Because 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
48:15Because 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
48:37Here 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
48:50You're the Princess of Wales, so 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
49:01If you show me love, approval and acceptance
49:05Everyone else will follow
49:07I think we've gone as far as we can
49:09And now we can continue another time
49:11Don't dismiss me, please
49:13Don't push me away
49:14What?
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
50:06I feel sick
50:07Yes
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
50:40Who in time will give up her struggles
50:43Give up her fight
50:44And bend
50:46As Philip did
50:47As they all do
50:49And when she bends
50:52She will fit
50:53And if she doesn't bend
50:55What then?
50:56She will break
51:23And if she doesn't bend
51:36You're just too good to be true
51:40Can't take my eyes off of you
51:44You'd be like heaven to touch
51:48I want to hold you
51:50I want to hold you so much
51:52As long as love has arrived
51:55And I thank God and the light
52:00You're just too good to be true
52:04Can't take my eyes off of you
52:17I love you, baby
52:20I love you, baby
52:21And if it's quite all right
52:23I need you, baby
52:24To warm the lonely night
52:26I love you, baby
52:29Trust you'll leave when I say
52:33Oh, pretty baby
52:35Don't bring me down, I pray
52:38Oh, pretty baby
52:40Now that I've found you, stay
52:42Let me love you, baby
52:45Let me love you
53:13Let me love you
