01:08Oh Margaret
01:10I forget what about
01:12There are so many
01:14Exchanges of views these days
01:21I thought things had moved on
01:24They've moved on alright
01:25He's moved on
01:28On to the next one
01:36He can't help himself
01:39My bright epic little snapper
01:43Oof
01:45Oof
02:04Oof
02:13I don't know.
02:50You've never told me about the wallpaper.
02:52The rogues' gallery. Isn't it fun?
02:56I did it to remind Princess Margaret
02:59that her family has as many skeletons in the cupboard as anyone else's.
03:03House of Windsor.
03:06House of horrors, my leg.
03:07Maybe she saw the funny side.
03:10God, no.
03:11She said as long as that wallpaper was there, she'd never come to the house.
03:14Not that she needed an excuse.
03:17She always hated it here.
03:19She considers it as ugly, misshapen, and common as me.
03:24The failure of our marriage could not be better encapsulated by the two houses,
03:30the two dwellings in which she and I are most comfortable.
03:35Hers is some insect-infested gin palace given to her by fawning sycophants.
03:44And this is mine.
03:49Oh, you too.
03:51I know.
03:53And poor you to get caught up in it.
03:57My advice would be to escape while you still can.
04:01I'll never be able to give you what you want.
04:04She'll never divorce me.
04:07Well, she might if she falls in love with someone else.
04:12What makes you think that'll happen?
04:15Well, you did.
04:18Didn't you?
04:23You're right.
04:29I did.
04:51You're right.
05:55With MPs from smaller parties holding the balance of power, both Nova and the Tories look
06:00unable to reach the magic number of 318.
06:05I'm sure it was her.
06:09The Thing.
06:10She has a name, you know.
06:13Yes.
06:14And, um, I had been told it, but I can only remember, so I call her The Thing.
06:21Lucy Lindsay Hall.
06:22Mm-hmm.
06:24The Thing.
06:25The car she climbed into outside looked very much like Tony's.
06:32I suppose they're in Sussex now.
06:35Ugly little house.
06:38Dredge would look ashamed.
06:44And he thinks I'll take the humiliation lying down, does he?
06:49Well, he's got another thing coming.
06:53May I speak frankly now?
06:55As a friend.
06:58I can think of several couples of whom it could be observed that having not found the contentment
07:04they desired within matrimony have chosen to live apart and appeared happier.
07:10Tony and I will never let go of one another.
07:13And it's not just because divorce is incompatible with my faith.
07:17Because this is just how we like it.
07:24War is our love.
07:26Brutal fight to the death is our mating dance.
07:29And I speak for both of us when I say we wouldn't want it any other way.
07:37Contentment is dull.
07:39And Tony and I are anything but dull.
07:42You can now say with mere certainty that neither party will achieve a majority.
07:47So, the clock is now ticking for 10 feet to firm an alliance with Jeremy Falk's Liberal Party.
07:53If he can't, you might rise to a return to power for Harold Wilson,
07:56if you can call a minority government power.
07:59What a mess.
08:01I mean, honestly, can you remember a time when the country was in worse shape?
08:04When one had as little confidence in one's leaders?
08:07Speaking of bad shape.
08:08One wakes up in the morning flinching.
08:11How could matters get any worse?
08:12What more could possibly go wrong?
08:14And then you come down to breakfast, you see the newspapers,
08:16and you realise they've done it again.
08:19Margaret's birthday is coming up.
08:21I mean, right now, the United Kingdom is the equivalent
08:23of a patient dying on the operating table and the surgeons.
08:27No, the butchers.
08:28No, sorry, the murderers responsible for causing that death
08:31are seeking re-election.
08:32Instead of throwing them in jail,
08:34there are people like lemmings queuing up to extend their bloody contracts.
08:38She called me late last night.
08:40Said she had something important to discuss.
08:43Who?
08:44Margaret.
08:45She's run out of tonic?
08:47No.
08:48She's been knocked up by one of the footmen?
08:50Philip.
08:51You wouldn't put it past her.
08:53I worry it's Tony.
08:55I'm taking for Ted Heath to form an alliance with...
08:59Ready?
09:03Mr. Heath came to tell me that he was unable to form a co-relation with the Ulster Unionists
09:07or the Liberals, which left him with no alternative but to resign.
09:11At which point, I don't mind admitting, I let out an unconstitutional cheer.
09:15Huzzah.
09:16Privately, I hope.
09:17Well, it's not his politics I object to, so much as his company.
09:20And now, Mr. Wilson, who I must say looks very tired, not at all well,
09:25is back again as Prime Minister of a minority government.
09:28And the best we can hope for is that he can survive until the next election in the auction.
09:48I have asked you all here, my family, on the occasion of my birthday.
09:56Happy birthday, Margot.
09:58You don't notice that my dear husband is not at my side on this joyous occasion.
10:02It is because he is now betraying me, and not just in private, but openly in public, too.
10:08And I don't think we should take this lying down.
10:11We.
10:11Yes, we, Mummy.
10:13If Tony insults me by implication, he's insulting the whole of the family, too.
10:17I'm not sure I followed that logic.
10:19What would you like us to do?
10:20Send a clear signal to the world whose side you're on.
10:24And impose sanctions.
10:27What?
10:27What kind of sanctions?
10:29No more invitations to royal events.
10:32No more royal photographs.
10:33No more access to crown property.
10:36It's him where it hurts.
10:38Punish him.
10:40Draw blood.
10:40Where is he now?
10:41He left the country this morning to make one of his films.
10:46Oh, Ghana, or did you say Guinea?
10:49Gabon.
10:49Ah.
10:50With the thing.
10:51The what?
10:52I'll explain later.
10:53I rather liked his last film.
10:55Is it the one about dwarves?
10:56I'll tell you what I liked about it.
10:57Yes, it's sore.
10:58It had compassion.
11:00It had kindness.
11:02In fact, I think that's the thing I most like about Tony.
11:04And his wit.
11:05Yes.
11:06And the fact that he's generous enough to flirt with his mother-in-law.
11:10He'll throw up.
11:12He cares.
11:13All right, Mummy.
11:14He has a heart.
11:15Yeah, not that his wife or children have noticed.
11:17Does his charity work for the disabled?
11:19And the way he was at Aberdeen.
11:21Yes.
11:22He's the mother-in-law.
11:32Why do you do this, Mummy?
11:35Why do you all do this?
11:37Why do you always, always take a side?
11:41This is my birthday party.
11:45And when I tell you that my husband is out of the country,
11:49betraying me with another woman,
11:51instead of supporting me
11:55and condemning him,
11:57you just sit here, praising him to the sky.
12:04My family.
12:06My own flesh and blood.
12:08My birthday.
12:15Perhaps we'll just stick to the back teeth of you
12:17and have sympathy for him.
12:19Philip, well...
12:21Am I wrong?
12:23Like, hands up anyone who thinks I'm wrong.
12:26Anne.
12:33We should eat these before they get cold, shouldn't we?
12:35Mrs. Joy.
12:36She'll be all right.
12:37I hate them.
12:38I hate them, I hate them, I hate them.
12:40I hate them.
12:50You might even enjoy it.
20:27Well, you're right.
20:32This is the hotel.
20:34We'll be in the bar, waiting for you.
20:36The department store's just over there on the right.
20:38You can't miss it.
20:40Would you...
20:52Thank God.
20:55We've stumbled upon an experiment in...
20:57in breeding.
21:02Your royal highness.
21:04Gentleman's bathing trunks, please.
21:07What size are you?
21:09Uh, small.
21:10Sincerely hope not.
21:12He means slim.
21:24Did we ever get to the bit where you told me your passion in life?
21:27No.
21:30Then what is it?
21:32Gardening, ma'am.
21:36Ah.
21:38These, please.
21:40No.
21:42These.
21:42I'm paying.
21:44I choose.
21:45Try them all.
21:55Oh.
22:08No.
22:09No.
22:09Not a garden.
22:10It means doing.
22:12You?
22:13I imagine you must have an army of gardens.
22:14Don't believe everything you hear.
22:18My garden is quite neglected.
22:21Especially the one in Mustique.
22:23What?
22:25It's a small private island in the Caribbean.
22:28It's a small private island in the Caribbean.
22:31So lovely.
22:32Mmm.
22:33My husband hates it.
22:35Since I hate my husband.
22:37What he thinks is irrelevant.
22:38You know, in the Caribbean, I have one of my favourite trees.
22:43A silk cotton tree.
22:46A challenge for any gardener is to judge the right amount of pruning.
22:49If that's so.
22:52Well, you need very nimble fingers.
23:03And do you have nimble as well as pretty fingers?
23:09I do.
23:10Yeah.
23:15Perfect.
23:16She goes.
23:38So now a duet.
23:39Duet!
23:39Duet!
23:41Duet!
23:43Duet!
23:43Duet!
23:45Duet!
23:45Duet!
23:47Duet!
23:48Duet!
23:50Duet!
23:50Duet!
23:50I'm just a girl, a wonderful girl.
23:53I'm sweetest one in town.
23:55You could touch some miles around,
23:58But not one like me kind of all.
24:01You've got a smile, a wonderful smile,
24:03And a certain little way.
24:06And every time a boy gets near me,
24:09Then look at me and say
24:13Red Hot Mama, Red Hot Mama, the other one we meet
24:18Red Hot Mama, Sun Charmer, yes indeed
24:24They say that I should be in the fallies, for tomorrow's
24:29I have a pair of boys, just like all Svengali's
24:36I confess that you possess the sweetest charms in town
24:40And unless I miss my guests, the boys all follow you around
24:46I'll make a music master, drop his fears
24:49I'll make a bald-handed man, start the air in the middle
24:51Red Hot Mama, Red Hot Mama
24:54I have to tell my devil
24:55Hey, Red Hot Mama, Red Hot Mama
24:59You're the one we need
25:01Red Hot Mama, Sun Charmer, yes
25:05Yes, indeed
25:21When she went to bed, did you notice?
25:24Of course I noticed, everyone noticed
25:26The top of the stairs, instead of turning right
25:29He turned left
25:30What have we done?
25:32This could come back to haunt us
25:34Why?
25:35It would look like we've encouraged the Queen's sister to betray her husband
25:39She's not betraying Tony, she's with Tony
25:43Can't you see?
25:45Slim, Welsh, reddish hair
25:47The two men are virtually identical
25:50Roddy's a carbon copy of Tony
25:52Just younger
25:55I hadn't thought of that
26:18Gold Snowden, ma'am
26:27Your Majesty
26:28Dear Tony
26:32So kind of you to come
26:33I know how busy you are
26:42Before we start
26:46Just look what I found in my studio the other day
26:51How young we were
26:53How pretty you were
26:54Oh, stop it
26:55Like Vivian Lee
26:58I've always loved this picture
27:01Yes
27:02Gosh, Philip
27:04Not looking cross for once
27:05Miraculous
27:07All yours, ma'am
27:08For me?
27:09With my compliments
27:10Oh
27:11And now
27:13To the main business
27:19Voila
27:20A mug
27:24And
27:30A teapot
27:34And
27:36A commemorative plate
27:46And
27:46A tea towel
27:47With the dates
27:501952
27:50To 1977
27:54The powers that be
27:55Thought it might be nice
27:56If someone from inside the firm
27:58Were to design some of the memorabilia
28:00Oh, Tony
28:01You are clever
28:02Always happy to help my family
28:05Are you?
28:07Let's talk about that for a minute
28:09May I keep these as well?
28:11Yes, yes, of course
28:13Now, I don't want to
28:16Pry
28:16Or lecture anyone
28:18About what goes on in a marriage
28:21In my experience
28:23People find a way
28:23To do what they need to do
28:24To remain happy
28:25Or sane
28:27I often think
28:28Turning a blind eye
28:29Is the best approach
28:32Things work themselves out
28:33In the end
28:35But recently
28:37Margaret has been so wretched
28:40And so lost
28:44And she's so in love with you
28:46I wouldn't be a responsible
28:47Elder sister
28:48Or head of the family
28:49If I didn't say
28:50How happy
28:52It would make us all
28:53But particularly Margaret
28:55If you two were to
28:56Patch things up again
28:57Even if just for the children
29:01I quite agree
29:04And had been
29:05Giving the matter
29:06Serious thought
29:07Had you really?
29:09Yes
29:09But then
29:10I heard the latest developments
29:14Who she's met
29:17What she's doing
29:18How she's
29:23Conducting herself
29:26What latest developments?
29:51I'm here
29:56I'm here
30:08Welcome
30:08Your Royal Highness
30:09Holly
30:09No I don't think
30:11You see
30:11No quite right
30:12Hot and sweaty
30:13Yes isn't it
30:14Unbearable
30:15What are you talking about?
30:17That's lovely
30:17You're right
30:18Heavenly
30:19It's the aeroplane

30:30Look

30:33I'm sorry darling
30:33Don't call me that in public
30:35Ever
30:36What about you didn't call me boy?
30:38You are one
30:38You're a little boy
30:40Steady
30:40Who needs to be taught everything
30:43Ma'am
31:08There it is
31:13I was given it
31:15Take this to the wedding present

32:01She's not bad
32:04Well let me tell you about the way she looked
32:06The way she acted
32:08The colour of her hair

32:12Her eyes were clear and bright
32:14But she's not bad
32:21The way she acted
32:45But no one told me about it
32:49What could I do
32:51I don't tell you about it
32:56I don't know
32:57I don't know
33:04Why is she not there?
33:07Is your mother trying to find her?
33:10She's not there.
33:13My life is out about the way she loved.
33:16The way she acted.
33:18The color of her hair.
33:20Her voice is something wrong.
33:22There's no one there.
33:25I smell blossom and the trees are there.
33:30All day long I seem to walk on it.
33:34I wonder why.
33:37I wonder why.
33:39Enjoy there, you too.

37:57Margaret in love with someone else.
38:00Legitimate grounds for separation in a way that will still protect your name.

38:07Our future.

40:30Used to be your home.
40:32It's still my home.
40:35What is he doing in it?
40:37Hello, sir.
40:42I would ask where you got the nerve to come here if I thought you had nerve.
40:46But looking at you, I can tell you've no nerve at all.
40:49You're just stupid.
40:50Come on, get out.
40:51Don't you dare talk to him like that.
40:53I'll speak to him whichever way I like.
40:55In my house.
40:56My house.
40:57Our house, ducky.
40:59No, not ours anymore.
41:06Please leave.
41:08I won't leave.
41:10You don't want me to leave.
41:12I'm desperate for you to leave.
41:14Desperate.
41:15Like a patient.
41:17Desperate to cut out a cancer.
41:19Think very carefully about what you're saying.
41:22Every game has its limits.
41:24It's not a game anymore.
41:29He's a child.
41:31He's no idea how to make him happy.
41:34You made me happy.
41:35Couldn't make me any more wretched than you have.
41:38You were wretched when I found you.
41:42Your little love notes, you leave me everywhere.
41:45How do I loathe thee?
41:47Let me count the ways.
41:49You look like a Jewish manicurist.
41:51You look like a Maltese landlady.
41:53Little rich, I think, coming from a misshapen cripple.
41:55Oh, yes.
41:56Holy boy.
41:57Hoppity hop, hoppity hop.
41:59Overlooked by his mother because he wasn't strong enough.
42:02Or, well, born enough.
42:04An embarrassment.
42:05Not able-bodied enough.
42:06And if we're talking about overlooked,
42:09you know what this is all about.
42:10Overlooked Margaret with no role, no purpose, no real friends.
42:14Of whom it must have finally be asked.
42:16What is a princess for?
42:20You go after him and I'll divorce you.
42:22Oh, you wouldn't dare.
42:25You go after him and I'll bring you to your knees.
42:28Molly!
42:30Molly!
42:32Molly!
42:34Molly!
43:00It's age.
43:02It happens to us all.
43:04No, ma'am.
43:05It's not just age.
43:07It's been diagnosed.
43:08It has a name.
43:12Alzheimer's.
43:24I first noticed symptoms two years ago.
43:29I always speak in public without notes.
43:32I have something of a photographic memory.
43:34But then, one day, I dried.
43:40And in the months that followed, I noticed more forgetfulness.
43:49Agitation.
43:52Delusion.
43:55Paranoia.
43:55I shouldn't worry too much.
43:58Several of your predecessors had far more serious afflictions.
44:01And they continued to govern without the public being any the wiser.
44:06No, ma'am.
44:06It's a mental health issue now.
44:09I shall put myself in the hands of the doctors.
44:15Well, Prime Minister, I am sorry.
44:17This will come as a terrible shock.
44:19Well, maybe.
44:21No shock lasts longer than 48 hours.
44:25There's too much appetite for the next shock.
44:31I'll miss our sessions terribly.
44:34I don't mind admitting I let out an unconstitutional cheer when you beat Mr. Heath this time.
44:39Oh.
44:41I always said deep down you're a lefty at heart.
44:44Nothing to do with the politics or just a better companion.
44:47Although I wouldn't have said that the first time we met.
44:50No.
44:51You thought I was going to rough you lot up.
44:54And look what a sentimental old royalist I turned out to be.
45:15Your Majesty.
45:31Prime Minister.
45:35If you saw fit to invite your Queen to supper at Downing Street before you left,
45:40she would be honoured.
45:43But that's an honour previously only given to Churchill.
45:48The Duke of Edinburgh and I would like that very much.
45:54So would Mrs. Wilson and I.
46:13Martin?
46:16Martin?
46:26The amount of nitrazepam the princess took was quite critical, ma'am.
46:35Nitrazepam?
46:37A sedative.
46:39Used in short periods for the relief of anxiety and insomnia.
46:48Based on the numbers of empty packets you found.
46:55You would say more indicative of a cry for attention than a genuine suicide attempt.
47:02A cri de coeur rather than a coup de grace.
47:22You would say more than a coup de grace.
47:23You would say more than a coup de grace.
47:23You would say more than a coup de grace.
47:23You would say more than a coup de grace.
47:23You would say more than a coup de grace.
47:24You would say more than a coup de grace.
47:24You would say more than a coup de grace.
47:25You would say more than a coup de grace.
47:26You would say more than a coup de grace.
47:26You would say more than a coup de grace.
47:27You would say more than a coup de grace.
47:27You would say more than a coup de grace.
47:28You would say more than a coup de grace.
47:30You would say more than a coup de grace.
47:45Hello, you.
47:47Hello, you.
48:07Am I going to get her ticking off?
48:09That hadn't been my intention.
48:11Perhaps I should.
48:14Why?
48:15Because for a while there, it was touch and go.
48:21So I hear.
48:25Did you mean it?
48:28I don't know.
48:31Possibly.
48:35How do you feel now?
48:38Tired.
48:43It's sore.
48:45There were tubes.
48:48A little bit foolish.
48:54Where's Roddy?
48:56Gone.
48:58Where?
48:59Run for the hills.
49:02I hear Moroccan hills.
49:04And Tony?
49:06Back for the thing.
49:09Future Lady Snowden, I would wager.
49:16I'm not very good at it.
49:22What?
49:25The men.
49:27Seem to drive them all bad.
49:33Tony and I are going to separate.
49:36Yes, I think that's probably wise.
49:39Which I'm afraid to say will lead to divorce.
49:42Yes.
49:44The first royal divorce since Henry VIII and Anne of Cleves.
49:49I have a little bit of good news in that department.
49:52Which is?
49:53If we time it right, the announcement of your separation might get lost in the Prime Minister's resignation.
50:00I thought you only just got re-elected.
50:02Or did I really miss something?
50:03Due to ill health.
50:06Alzheimer's.
50:14How many does that make it?
50:17Prime Minister's.
50:18Mm.
50:19Whoever replaces him will be my seventh.
50:23The rest of us drop like flies.
50:25But she goes on and on.
50:53For the record, I think there are many things you're good at.
50:56Name one that's actually meaningful.
50:59Being a sister.
51:01No need to humour me.
51:03I'm not.
51:05Of all the people everywhere, you are the closest and most important to me.
51:11And if by doing this, you wanted to let me imagine for one minute what life would be like without
51:17you,
51:19you succeeded.
51:24It would be unbearable.
51:32Then we must both carry on.
51:33Then we must both carry on.
51:33Then we must carry on.
52:21Good morning, Your Majesty.
52:33Well, usually when I drive into Broadcasting House just after five in the morning, the most I'm likely to see
52:38is a bridge delivery van or an office cleaner on the way to work.
52:41But this morning, despite the dark skies, there was a feeling of activity, a string of horses clashing through the
52:46streets and knots of people wearing red, white and blue gear drifting down towards the Fowler Square.
52:52But one of those who've been up all night to make sure of getting a good view of the procession
52:55and the prices with them outside Buckingham Palace.
52:59I'm standing in front of Buckingham Palace and I expect the Queen's teesmaid has just rung her back to consciousness.
53:05I expect she's lying there, just coming to and remembering that this is Jubilee Day.
53:09This is a day as gruelling as her coronation 25 years ago, certainly in ceremonial terms.
53:15But she was a bit of a thing in those days.
53:17I expect today she's wondering if the shoes she's going to wear are quite as comfortable as they might be.
53:22Now, the weather looks as though, as I say, as though it's certainly going to hold for the journey out.
53:29What's your view, the Jubilee?
53:35You must do it.
53:39You don't think it might all backfire on me?
53:43Ask yourself, in the time I've been on the throne, what have I actually achieved?
53:47You've been calm.
53:50Stable and...
53:51Useless and unhelpful.
53:54This country was still great when I came to the throne and now look.
53:57So much for the second Elizabethan age, which Winston talked about.
54:03All that's happened on my watch is the place has fallen apart.
54:06It's only fallen apart if we say it has.
54:10That's the thing about the monarchy.
54:14We paper over the cracks.
54:17And if what we do is loud and grand and confident enough,
54:23no one will notice that all around us it's fallen apart.
54:27That's the point of us.
54:31Not us.
54:33Of you.
54:36You cannot flinch.
54:40Because if you show a single crack,
54:44we'll see it isn't a crack, but a chasm.
54:48And we'll all fall in.
54:52So you must hold it all together.
54:58Must I do that alone?
55:01There is only one queen.
55:09And now, the poet laureate, Sir John Badgerman.
55:13God save the queen.
55:17In days of disillusion,
55:19however low we've been,
55:21to fire us and inspire us,
55:25God gave to us our queen.
55:28She exceeded young and beautiful
55:31to a much-loved father's throne,
55:34serene and kind and beautiful.
55:37She holds us as her own.
55:41And 25 years later,
55:44so sure her reign has been
55:46that our great events are greater
55:49for the presence of our queen.
55:54For our monarch and her people,
55:57united yet and free,
55:59let the bells from every steeple
56:02ring out loud the jubilee.
56:08The
56:09way
