00:22:38but we're hoping to find a moment at the ceremonial planting of a tree.
00:22:42We'll find a moment during any of this to use the lavatory.
00:22:45I do hope tomorrow's better.
00:22:48I'm afraid not, sir.
00:22:49Up at 4.30 for a 6 a.m. flight to Jamaica.
00:22:55Oh, here we go again, waving like lunatic.
00:22:59Oh, God.
00:23:01With any luck, one day they'll all own television sets,
00:23:03and they won't come out like this again.
00:23:06Man, sir.
00:23:06Just before we take off, I thought I might go through the itinerary for our first day in Jamaica.
00:23:11Goody.
00:23:12Yes, sir. Do sit down, Michael.
00:23:15We arrive at noon to be greeted by the governor,
00:23:17representative of the West Indian Islands,
00:23:20and the guard of all art be formed by the Jamaican standard.
00:23:28This is the picture we shall never forget in Jamaica.
00:23:33The lovely lady and the tall, handsome figure of the sailor,
00:23:37her husband.
00:23:39So near to our children that they can almost be touched.
00:23:44So graceful and so near...
00:23:46Colonel Charter has thought you might like to see the speech for tomorrow night, ma'am.
00:23:50I'll give you a chance to prepare.
00:24:01Oh, dear.
00:24:03Would you bring me a pencil, please?
00:24:06Ma'am?
00:24:07And ask Colonel Charter as if you'd be so kind as to come see me in the morning.
00:24:35Good morning, sir.
00:24:36Good morning.
00:25:01Come in, Martin.
00:25:02Your roll, Hans.
00:25:04The speech for the ambassador's reception tonight.
00:25:07Yes, ma'am.
00:25:09This was written for my sister.
00:25:10Very well written.
00:25:12Manifesting for her, in her register.
00:25:15Reflecting her character, if that's the right word.
00:25:18As we both know, I have a different character.
00:25:21Indeed.
00:25:22And since I shall be deputising for my sister tonight,
00:25:25I was wondering if I might make one or two minor adjustments to the text.
00:25:30Ma'am?
00:25:31Give it a bit more colour.
00:25:33Make it feel a bit more like me.
00:25:36Breathe a little life into it.
00:25:37I'm sure Her All Highness appreciates it.
00:25:42There will be important people at the reception tonight of different backgrounds,
00:25:50different sensibilities.
00:25:51The speech has been carefully calibrated to avoid giving offence.
00:25:56And I'd suggest to avoid entertaining, too.
00:25:59It's not the sovereign's place to entertain.
00:26:03And I'm not the sovereign.
00:26:04I understand that, but you will be there in her place.
00:26:20What about the state diadem, Tiara?
00:26:22Or the Cambridge lovers not?
00:26:24Those are her majesties for state occasions.
00:26:27Her majesty won't mind.
00:26:29Besides, are people not coming tonight expecting to meet a queen?
00:26:34Yes, shouldn't we be giving them one?
00:26:36Yes, her majesty won't be giving them one.
00:26:42God bless you.
00:26:46Amen.
00:26:48Amen.
00:26:53Amen.
00:26:57Amen.
00:26:59Amen.
00:27:04Amen.
00:27:05Amen.
00:27:05Amen.
00:27:06Amen.
00:27:11your excellencies i'm delighted to be here tonight deputizing for my sister the queen
00:27:19who was fortunate enough to be on her travels somewhere between bermuda jamaica and fiji
00:27:26distracted no doubt by waving fields of sugarcane and graceful palms
00:27:34by deep blue water beyond white coral sands by dramatic green hills thick with vegetation
00:27:42and the subtle rhythms of dancing and singing but more vivid more brilliant even than the colors of
00:27:52those lovely islands or the echoes of that music or the welcome of cheerful and friendly people
00:27:59wherever my sister may travel is what i see as i look out from this stage tonight

00:37:52a visit to the coal face a quarter of a mile underground is included in her tour of the
00:37:57colliery which is recognized as one of the most modern in europe after almost an hour underground the

00:38:09miners i did very much although it's jolly dusty down there some even went into my mouth but i can
00:38:16assure you it tasted delicious do you have sympathy for the mind as the work then one could fail to
00:38:23have sympathy for anyone who has to spend their working life down there intolerably dark and hot and
00:38:30cramped to my eyes it seems conditions are still very perilous for these poor brave men who work on the
00:38:36ground

00:39:49who is it you think you'll be letting down anyway a koala

00:40:50get out
00:40:55no
00:41:21good
00:41:35Let me go and have a word.
00:41:38No.
00:41:43I'll do it.
00:41:52I'm sorry for that little interlude.
00:41:57Though I'm sure it must happen in every marriage.
00:42:02Now, what would you like me to do?
00:42:04For your newsreel.
00:42:29Another gift for your majesty.
00:42:38Your royal highness.
00:42:40When you appear in public, performing official duties, you are not you.
00:42:46Of course I am me.
00:42:47Expressing political opinions about working conditions in mines, that business at Sadler's Wells.
00:42:55And no one wants you to be you. They want you to be it.
00:42:58A statue. A thing.
00:43:01The crown. That's what they've come to see. Not you.
00:43:05The minute you become yourself, you shatter the illusion, break the spell.
00:43:11What people want is someone to inhabit it.
00:43:14Not be frightened of it. Make it flesh and blood. Bring it to life.
00:43:19Your uncle, Edward VIII, threatened to do just that.
00:43:23Impose his individuality on the institution.
00:43:27Bring it to life.
00:43:28And he almost destroyed it in the process.
00:43:31You can't seriously be comparing this to the abdication.
00:43:34No.
00:43:35But I have decided that all remaining royal engagements in the queen's absence
00:43:40should be carried out by the queen mother.
00:43:44My mother is in Scotland.
00:43:46So I gather.
00:43:47But I've sent someone to bring her back.
00:43:51Right away.
00:43:54Your royal highness.
00:44:02We said eleven.
00:44:03What time is it now?
00:44:05Well, it's nearly noon.
00:44:07Goodness.
00:44:08And I settled in such good time.
00:44:11Did you come along the coast?
00:44:13I did.
00:44:14You didn't factor in the wind.
00:44:17You were into the wind this morning.
00:44:20Wasn't I just?
00:44:21The good news is you'll fly back.
00:44:23Yeah.
00:44:31I've, um...
00:44:32I've had a chance to do some thinking.
00:44:35I've spoken to my lawyers and I've come up with a sum
00:44:38that I think is a fair price for this magnificently situated castle.
00:44:44Yes, yes. Go on.
00:44:46Brace yourself.
00:44:49One hundred pounds.
00:44:53What?
00:44:54Oh, I'm sorry.
00:44:55Is that too dear?
00:44:58No, it's absurd.
00:45:00On the contrary, it's entirely fair.
00:45:01Given it'll end up costing you tens of thousands.
00:45:04Are you sure?
00:45:06No.
00:45:06The question is, are you sure?
00:45:15I am.
00:45:16All right.
00:45:18Congratulations.
00:45:19I hope you'll be very happy here.
00:45:23I have a feeling I will be.
00:45:24I can get the place cleared out inside a week.
00:45:27Only if you've somewhere to go.
00:45:29I, I do.
00:45:30My sister's a few miles down the coast.
00:45:33Now, will I walk you back to the Viners?
00:45:36Downwind?
00:45:36That'd be lovely.
00:45:53Your Majesty.
00:45:56Forgive me for disturbing you.
00:45:59I come from the Prime Minister.
00:46:02He asks that you return to London immediately.
00:46:05Whatever, fool.
00:46:06This is all the information that I have.
00:46:12It seems I must go.
00:46:16Oh, my God.
00:46:20This finally come to you.
00:46:23Why on earth didn't you say, Mum?
00:46:27Because people always make such a fuss.
00:46:31And stop being themselves.
00:46:35And you'd have doubled the price.
00:46:39Spoken like a true Scotswoman.
00:46:41Huh?
00:46:42Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
00:46:46Ah, ah.
00:46:47Ah.
00:47:03tych bunERS, if it'sное, are you mom?
00:47:09Ah, ah, ah, ah.
00:47:12Now, my speech at the letter, there was one adjustment that I would like to make.
00:47:18I would like to refer to Malta as my island of happy memories.
00:47:26Very good, then.
00:47:28I can have the text retyped for your approval.
00:47:37Now, there do remain some security concerns.
00:47:41What concerns about Gibraltar?
00:47:42What concerns?
00:47:45Death threats are sent to all the leaders of the major political parties,
00:47:49telling them that if our tour were to go to Gibraltar, our safety can't be guaranteed.
00:47:56I told them we should pull out.
00:47:59Why?
00:48:00Do you mean why?
00:48:01Because I don't much fancy shuffling the streets of Gibraltar like a sitting duck.
00:48:07No.
00:48:09Pulling out at this late hour will make us look weak.
00:48:12And it would be a great disappointment to the people of Gibraltar.
00:48:15I say we go.
00:48:16I say we don't.
00:48:24I am aware that I'm surrounded by people who feel that they could do the job better.
00:48:40But for better or worse, the crown has landed on my head.
00:48:45And I say we go.
00:48:55The Royal Yacht Britannia sails towards Gibraltar.
00:48:59Visible on deck, Her Majesty the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh.
00:49:03Accompanying, Britannia, 15 A-class destroyers from the Mediterranean Sea.
00:49:12A powerful signal to the people of Gibraltar of the Queen and the British Empire's enduring support.
00:49:43The Royal Yacht Britannia has already marked Her Majesty as a woman of death.
00:49:51Her return to London after 50,000 miles by air, land and sea is a triumph of diplomacy at a
00:49:59challenging time for the Empire.
00:50:02Not a single item of the enormous list of engagements has been missed.
00:50:09Millions have seen and beaten their Queen as she leaves the Commonwealth charmed and united.
00:50:18It is already clear that Her Majesty will occupy a place among the famous queens of history and promises a
00:50:26renewed role for Britain in the modern world.
00:50:30The Empire secure across the four corners of the earth, marking the start of a new Elizabethan age.
00:50:38What?
00:50:50Mel??
00:51:01Well,
00:51:04Second... The Prime
00:51:05Minister is running. Thank you.
00:51:07No, no, no.
00:51:09No, no, no.
00:51:10No, no, no.
00:51:10No, no, no.
00:51:11No, no, no.
00:51:12You can't get away from me.
00:51:16The prime minister, your majesty.
00:51:21Congratulations, your majesty.
00:51:23Thank you, Winston.
00:51:24An unqualified tribe.
00:51:26And their escape, I see.
00:51:27So easily you've gone the other way.
00:51:28Well, but it didn't.
00:51:30And has put us right back where we belong.
00:51:33Higher, in fact.
00:51:35And before the tour, our great nation was in danger of losing much of its status, our
00:51:43influence, our standing.
00:51:45Your courage and conviction prevailed.
00:51:50This time, perhaps.
00:51:52But in time, they will surely grow tired of it.
00:51:55Grow tired of us.
00:51:56Only if the crown, and the people representing the crown, make mistakes.
00:52:03Errors of judgment.
00:52:05My dear sister.
00:52:07Yes.
00:52:09What would you have me do?
00:52:21Thank you, ma'am.
00:52:22Your majesty.
00:52:23Her royal highness is on her way.
00:52:26Thank you, ma'am.
00:52:27I'll give that to you, ma'am.
00:52:28It's all right.
00:52:29I have been here before.
00:52:32Do you know the way?
00:52:44What's in there?
00:52:46Yes, ma'am.
00:52:57What's in there?
00:53:00Yes, ma'am.
00:53:06Ahem.
00:53:10Goodness.
00:53:23What have I done to deserve this?
00:53:25The brief was simple.
00:53:28perform minor ceremonial tasks with a minimum of fuss
00:53:33not end up all over the newspapers i can't help it if they want to write about me
00:53:38it would help if you didn't give them what they crave character and excitement instability
00:53:43and drama well at least i give them something you give them nothing i give them silence
00:53:49silence is nothing it's the absence of noise emptiness blank page which allows others to
00:53:56shine but the monarchy should shine the monarchy yes not the monarch reparations will need to
00:54:04be made to whom to the people you offended a general to whom when asked if you'd like to
00:54:13dance you replied yes but not with you i believe there was also a debutante who you managed to
00:54:19make cry and the dancers of sadler's wells whom you refused to meet after arriving late for
00:54:25the performance you showed individuality and that made people panic they don't want individuality
00:54:33the last person who showed character almost took the ship down
00:54:40you are enjoying this not a bit yes you are
00:54:49admonishing your unruly young sister
00:54:55have you ever thought how it must be for me many times at great length
00:55:00wistfully you have a role a clear set of rules all you have to do is follow them margaret you
00:55:06have
00:55:06freedom all you have to do is enjoy it you think that i'm free to be constantly in your shadow
00:55:13constantly the overlooked one it looks like heaven to me what you have looks like heaven to me
00:55:26two sisters who envy one another you wouldn't be the first
00:55:38pride and joy
00:55:42remember what papa called us yes elizabeth is my pride and margaret is my joy
00:55:53but margaret is my joy

00:56:03and we're not disputing it surely
00:56:07what that i was papa's favorite
00:56:17it's a cruel truth to it isn't it
00:56:21there are two sisters so close in age that
00:56:24the more one becomes one thing the more the other
00:56:27necessarily becomes the opposite
00:56:30vice versa it's the way of things
00:56:34if one is the queen it must be the source of honor and all that is good
00:56:38the other necessarily becomes
00:56:41the focus of the most
00:56:44creative malice
00:56:47evil sister
