00:00:12My husband and Abby are deeply touched by our welcome.
00:00:16Merth?
00:00:16Yes, how long do we have?
00:00:18We'll be loud in ten minutes.
00:00:20No, Martin.
00:00:22Will there be a microphone?
00:00:24I'm sure, ma'am.
00:00:25A little more than 50 years ago.
00:00:58Run!
00:01:04My husband and I are deeply touched by our welcome here this morning.
00:01:11A little more than 50 years ago, Nairobi was a savage place, the home of wild animals
00:01:17and uninherited except for the occasional bend of nomadic herdsmen.
00:01:22Now, it is a modern, vibrant city.
00:01:25A striking tribute to the men and women of all races who have made it a great centre of
00:01:31commerce and finance.
00:01:33Now, it remains only for me to pass on the apologies of my father, King George.
00:01:46Who is no doubt very jealous indeed that I have come in his place.
00:01:51He's getting stronger every day.
00:01:55And he will be here with you all again very soon.
00:02:04Your Royal Highness, may I present
00:02:07Senior Chief Waro-Hew Wa-Kanyu of the Kikoyu.
00:02:11Hello.
00:02:12Sronka of the Kipsigis.
00:02:14Hello.
00:02:15Good morning.
00:02:15Bui of the Massa.
00:02:17Yes, hello.
00:02:17Hello.
00:02:18Hello.
00:02:20Such a pleasure.
00:02:20Oh, gosh, look.
00:02:21I've got that one.
00:02:22And that one, actually.
00:02:24Oh, Christ.
00:02:24I've got that one, too.
00:02:25Look.
00:02:27Oh, come off it.
00:02:28Where did you steal that one from, eh?
00:02:31Independence is sweeping across the continent.
00:02:35Support is important more than ever.
00:02:38You think?
00:02:39Oh.
00:02:41Like the hat.
00:02:45It's not a head.
00:02:47It's a crown.
00:02:51It's a crown.
00:03:04It's a crown.
00:03:04It's a crown.
00:03:09It's a crown.
00:04:17Really, Your Majesty?
00:04:24A lot.
00:04:30Well, well.
00:04:33I tell you, I woke up this morning feeling like a new man.
00:04:37I think you should enjoy it, sir.
00:04:42Enjoy every minute while you can.
00:04:45Well, I intend to.
00:04:48I'm going to head straight to Sandringham, but if you give me the all clear to shoot, consider it given.
00:05:03Sorry, ma'am.
00:05:04Can I help you?
00:05:04Oh, then it's your Scott.
00:05:05I'm new.
00:05:06It's all right.
00:05:06She's with me.
00:05:08Come along.
00:05:13He's awake?
00:05:14Yes, sir.
00:05:17Actually, he's asked to see you.
00:05:23Yes, sir.
00:05:25One more.
00:05:28Oh.
00:05:31Oh.
00:05:33Oh.
00:05:36Oh.
00:05:38Oh.
00:05:50Prime Minister?
00:05:51Is that the new girl?
00:05:53Yes, sir.
00:05:57Venetia.
00:05:59Louisa.
00:06:00Venetia.
00:06:02Venetia.
00:06:03Have they told you terrible things?
00:06:06Your colleagues downstairs?
00:06:09Go on.
00:06:10Be candid.
00:06:11It is said you can be difficult.
00:06:17I can be a monster.
00:06:18Did they say that?
00:06:19Yes, sir.
00:06:20That's true.
00:06:21But you need to be a monster to defeat Hitler.
00:06:25Did Jock give you my box?
00:06:27He did, sir.
00:06:28What's in it?
00:06:30You'd like me to open it?
00:06:32Unless you have X-ray vision, you will need to open it so as to be able to tell me
00:06:38what's in it.
00:06:42Well?
00:06:45Some papers about rationing.
00:06:47What else?
00:06:48Some papers from the Exchequer.
00:06:50Anything from the Foreign Office?
00:06:52About America and the Soviet Union?
00:06:54No, sir.
00:06:55Very important.
00:06:57Then start with the Exchequer.
00:07:00Read it aloud.
00:07:01Don't be alarmed if you hear no response.
00:07:05I shall be making mental notes.
00:07:08The economic situation.
00:07:19The economic situation we have inherited is worse than 1949.
00:07:26And in many ways worse...
00:07:30Um, worse than 1947.
00:07:36Confidence in sterling is impaired.
00:07:39Now, our latest estimates...
00:07:40Suggests that in 1952, the United Kingdom will have a deficit on its general balance of overseas payments of between
00:07:48five and six hundred million pounds.
00:07:52Given the circumstances, I'd be interested to hear the PM's views regarding the chances for recovery.
00:08:12Either we get rid of him now or we lose the next election and quite possibly lose power for a
00:08:18whole generation.
00:08:19You must act, Anthony.
00:08:21This is your time.
00:08:22The country needs a younger, more dynamic man.
00:08:25And what do you expect me to do?
00:08:27Hmm?
00:08:31He's the party leader.
00:08:34And he became party leader on our recommendation.
00:08:40I can't just push him out.
00:08:42Then you must go and see the one person who can.
00:08:53Oh, man.
00:09:31Welcome, Sagana Lodge, ma'am.
00:09:33Thank you very much.
00:09:36I have pushed up.
00:09:38Hello.
00:09:40Are those for me?
00:09:42Thank you very much.
00:09:43Oh.
00:09:53So, apparently, there's a large breeding herd of elephants at treetops, so we've got
00:09:58to get there early.
00:09:59Not too early, I hope.
00:10:03Oh, why?
00:10:05What else have you got in mind for our little holiday?
00:10:08Why does everybody think, just because we're royal, we like fine dining?
00:10:13Don't they realize we're savages good for nothing but schools and nursery food?
00:10:16It's all right.
00:10:18You can use your fingers.
00:10:19Philip.
00:10:20Look.
00:10:21Stop.
00:10:22Watch.
00:10:37You're all highness.
00:10:39Kiss me.
00:10:43Come on.
00:10:47Okay.
00:10:47His majesty will return from the chute at 4 p.m.
00:11:11good afternoon.
00:11:14Good afternoon.
00:11:15Has majesty wondered if you'd mind accompanying him on the chute at Beecher's Club today?
00:11:21No.
00:11:22No.
00:11:23Not at all.
00:11:23Still rather wet underfoot, I'm afraid, after the storms yesterday, but we can provide
00:11:27you with Wellington boots.
00:11:28There's no need to worry.
00:11:30What size are you, sir?
00:11:31Nine and a half.
00:11:34Though my riding boots are a ten, and my trench boots were an eleven.
00:11:40Make of that what you will.
00:11:53Much of this is just a function of age.
00:11:58It focuses almost entirely on issues relating to America and the Soviet Union, so important
00:12:05as domestic matters are falling behind.
00:12:16What do you suggest I do?
00:12:19Well, as sovereign, of course, there is nothing you can do from a constitutional standpoint.
00:12:26But as a friend, as Albert Windsor, you are the one person I can think of to whom he
00:12:35might listen.
00:12:37Well, that is where we are from.
00:12:42Difficulties, I'm afraid.
00:12:43But I no longer am Albert Windsor.
00:12:48That person was murdered by his elder brother when he abdicated.
00:12:55And, of course, Albert Windsor would dearly love to say to his old friend Winston Churchill,
00:13:01take a step back.
00:13:03Put your feet up.
00:13:05Let the younger generation have a go.
00:13:09But he is no longer with us.
00:13:11And that void has been filled by George VI, who, it turns out, is quite the stickler.
00:13:22No more.
00:13:24Allow the sovereign to interfere with the prime minister, then stand for office himself.
00:13:30Even when it's in the national interest, sir?
00:13:33The national interest, or Anthony Eden's interest.
00:13:52The reason I agreed to grant you an audience, not to hear your grievances about Mr. Churchill,
00:13:59but to communicate mine about you.
00:14:03Sir, the PM will step down in time.
00:14:08And until then, as sovereign, I do have the right to be consulted, to encourage, to warm.
00:14:18It is better to be patient and get what you desire in the right time.
00:14:27And have high office thrust upon you when you are not ready.
00:14:33I speak from personal experience.
00:14:38Foreign Secretary.
00:14:41Your Majesty.
00:14:42Sir.
00:14:53Someone to get to walk back, sir.
00:15:14Come on.
00:15:24Come on.
00:15:25Come on.
00:15:25Come on.
00:15:27You're all right.
00:15:30I'll put from here.
00:15:31It looks that way, sir.
00:15:34Your Highness.
00:15:37I'm your guide.
00:15:38I'll take you to treetops.
00:15:40Very good.
00:15:42Pass me my rifle.
00:15:44And the shells.
00:15:50I must ask you to proceed in total silence from here on.
00:15:54Do not speak unless absolutely necessary and then only using a low voice.
00:15:58Along the way, we may have to use some hand signals.
00:16:01This means stop.
00:16:03This means freeze.
00:16:04We'll move in small group, single file, maximum three at a time.
00:16:08It's all right.
00:16:09We'll be fine.
00:16:10After you, darling.
00:16:11Stay close, please.
00:16:12Arms late.
00:16:33Just stop.
00:16:34You, thank you.
00:16:34Just stop.
00:16:35And I'll come in.
00:16:36Let's go.
00:16:36Black flag.
00:16:36You've been letting you open.
00:16:38You've been letting you open.
00:16:40Look, now!
00:16:56Look.
00:17:01You've slowly arrived.
00:17:05I'll drop the ladder for you.
00:17:07I'll keep him distracted.
00:17:08No, no, no.
00:17:10You stay with the princess.
00:17:11Philip.
00:17:12Elizabeth, go.
00:17:13Go.
00:17:13Bite your eyes.
00:17:14Stay close.
00:17:16Hold on to my jacket.
00:17:25Elizabeth.
00:17:28Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
00:17:32Over here!
00:17:33Over here!
00:17:34Hey!
00:17:35Around.
00:17:36Around.
00:17:37Huh?
00:17:38Your highness, very slowly.
00:17:47Easy.
00:17:49Easy.
00:17:50Stay with me.
00:17:50Keep going, your highness.
00:17:51Keep going.
00:17:52Quickly.
00:17:52Hey, hey!
00:17:53Stay with me.
00:17:55Away!
00:17:56Away!
00:17:57Away!
00:18:00Away!
00:18:01Back away.
00:18:01When you go, easy.
00:18:09You're the king.
00:18:13Goodbye.
00:18:19Christ.
00:18:27Excuse me, old chap.
00:18:29I'm the tree, Tom.
00:18:34You're a bloody idiot.
00:18:36I am.
00:18:45I've been thinking.
00:18:46Uh-oh.
00:18:51If Papa's condition should continue to improve, well, I thought I'd ask if we might return to Malta so you
00:18:59can resume your naval career.
00:19:01Really?
00:19:06I know you've missed our life, there.
00:19:10I have.
00:19:12Well, I have, too.
00:19:15Very much.
00:19:21I'll write, Papa.
00:19:32I'll write, Papa.
00:19:34No.
00:19:34Yes.
00:19:35No.
00:19:35Yes.
00:19:36Absolutely not.
00:19:37Absolutely so.
00:19:37No.
00:19:38No.
00:19:38Come on.
00:19:39Come on.
00:19:40Just want to slop it out.
00:19:41There's never just one.
00:19:42No.
00:19:43No.
00:19:44No.
00:19:45Dembo.
00:19:46Dembo.
00:19:53Dembo.
00:19:53There's never just one.
00:20:00Ah.
00:20:02Ah.
00:20:06Oh.
00:20:09Oh.
00:20:11Oh.
00:20:11Oh.
00:20:14Oh.
00:20:35Anyone not here?
00:20:37Beat out!
00:20:42Great.
00:20:43Morning, gentlemen.
00:20:44Eight guns today, numbering from the right,
00:20:49moving up two each drive.
00:20:54So if you draw one or eight,
00:20:57not to worry, you'll be in the thick of it soon enough.
00:21:04Two short guards on the horn.
00:21:07Indicate the drive's over.
00:21:09Come on.
00:21:10I don't want to go.
00:21:11Come on, next to you.
00:21:12Are you ready?
00:21:13Fill the vehicle.
00:21:14Thank you very much.
00:21:15Oh.
00:21:16Sorry.
00:21:19Hello.
00:21:20Room for one more?
00:21:22Always.
00:21:27Right.
00:21:28Easy on the clutch.
00:21:29Eyes on the road.
00:21:31Not too fast.
00:21:32Don't worry.
00:21:33I'll be gentle with you, papa.
00:21:45Couldn't sleep and wouldn't sleep
00:21:49When love came and told me I shouldn't sleep.
00:21:56Bewitched, bothered, and bewildered, am I?
00:22:07Lost my heart, but what of it?
00:22:11He is cold, I agree
00:22:17He can laugh, but I love him
00:22:23Although the laugh's on me
00:22:27I'll sing to him
00:22:31Each spring to him
00:22:34And long for the day
00:22:37When I cling to him
00:22:40He'll wish, bothered, and bewildered
00:22:48Am I?
00:23:14The crowd's cheers heralded the arrival of the king's car
00:23:17Bringing their majesties and princess Margaret to the airport
00:23:21For a last farewell to the royal travelers
00:23:23Princess Elizabeth and the duke of Edinburgh
00:23:26Were off on a commonwealth journey
00:23:28Nineteen hours later
00:23:30The royal plane landed at Nairobi
00:23:31Ahead of them lay a 30,000 mile trip
00:23:34That will take them in five months
00:23:37To four continents
00:23:38The journey which but for his illness
00:23:40The king himself would have undertaken
00:23:42Was almost underway
00:23:43And from there the world

00:26:18Oh, my God.
00:26:48Hide, park, corner.
00:26:50He'll understand.
00:26:58Has the princess been notified?
00:27:01If you mean the new queen,
00:27:03my understanding is not.
00:27:05Then I suggest we do so before it breaks on the wires.
00:27:09We're trying.
00:27:10We're not exactly sure where she is at the moment.
00:27:13We're trying to contact the governor in Nairobi.
00:27:23Oh, my God.
00:27:46Oh, my God.
00:28:30We need to go.
00:28:32We can't. We haven't had the all clear.
00:28:35Do you think any other reporters anywhere in the world will be waiting for an all clear?
00:28:39I've had the BBC on the phone again.
00:28:41The news is breaking everywhere. They can't keep holding.
00:28:45No news of the princess?
00:28:47No, sir. Is it a yes, the BBC?
00:28:52It is.
00:29:00And God help her.
00:29:04They keep trying to start the engine.
00:29:07All they have to do is make sure the fan is off and wait.
00:29:11No, stop!
00:29:13She's just... she's overheated.
00:29:16No, can I have that? Thank you.
00:29:17All you have to do...
00:29:21Is wait.
00:29:23It's all right, I was a mechanic during the war.
00:29:30This is London.
00:29:33It is with the greatest sorrow that we make the following announcement.
00:29:37It was announced from Sandringham at 10.45 today.
00:29:41The death has been announced this morning, since his property is deprived of Sandringham.
00:29:45This is the hardest thing to do.
00:29:48And if the
00:29:48has been seen before the

00:29:53of the
00:30:02I'm going to drive to Nanyukai.
00:30:10Nanyukai.
00:30:12Sorry, in a close car, rather than 10.30.
00:30:14Morris!
00:30:1410.35.
00:30:16Reutersville.
00:30:1910.45, sorry.
00:30:21There'll be demonstration of the units of the African rifles.
00:30:23Oh, Christ.
00:30:25Hold on, would you?
00:30:271300 drive to Nanyukai airfield on board East African Airways C-47.
00:30:32Parting on a 1330 Shredderum flight.
00:30:36As flags across the nation are lowered in tribute,
00:30:39and news spreads throughout our cities and villages,
00:30:43crowds gather to mourn King George VI.
00:30:47We are comforted by the knowledge that he spent his final hours
00:30:50in the happy company of his wife and youngest daughter.
00:30:54For it is as a devoted family man
00:30:57that we as a nation shall best remember him.
00:31:01They don't know.
00:31:06To Ghana.
00:31:08Now, man.
00:31:31How was she talking?
00:31:33It was wonderful.
00:31:34We saw elephants.
00:31:36Their first lemon.
00:31:38Oh, that looks delicious.
00:31:39Welcome, Bert, ma'am.
00:31:41Let's go.
00:31:42Let's drive, shall we?
00:31:47Ready?
00:31:48Ready?

00:32:17The princess.

00:32:49Go.
00:32:57Excuse me, sir.
00:32:59What is it, Marston?
00:33:01Oh.
00:33:02Hmm.
00:33:26The profound sense of personal grief
00:33:28felt amongst his people today
00:33:30stems from their respect.
00:33:32I know it happened.
00:33:34No, no, no.
00:33:36I, uh, I should be the one to tell her.
00:33:39Yes, ma'am.
00:33:55Yes, ma'am.
00:33:57Yes, ma'am.
00:34:33The king, who retired to rest last night in his usual health,
00:34:37passed peacefully away in his sleep.

00:40:46SON MARGARES
00:40:50SON MARGARES
00:40:53SON MARGARES
00:40:54SON MARGARES
00:40:56SON MARGARES
00:40:58Now, down.
00:41:21I don't know.
00:41:46I don't know.
00:42:25I don't know.
00:42:55I don't know.
00:43:37I don't know.
00:43:40No one in the country can sleep.
00:43:44I know one shouldn't believe everything one hears.
00:43:48But...
00:43:49I was speaking with Jock Colville's wife.
00:43:52Mary.
00:43:53Margaret.
00:43:53Margaret.
00:43:53She said that Antony went to see the king ten days ago.
00:43:59What for?
00:44:01To express his concern about your age, your leadership, your incapacity, and to ask him to bid you to stand
00:44:11down.
00:44:11Oh, that's impossible.
00:44:12The king would never engage in such a treachery.
00:44:15And Antony would never dare.
00:44:17I've been like a father to him.
00:44:20I've groomed him every step of the way.
00:44:26Well, ignore me, then.
00:44:31It's probably nothing.
00:44:34Come on, it's probably nothing.
00:44:37What are you up to?
00:44:39My eulogy for the king is broadcast tomorrow, and the right words keep eluding me.
00:44:47They'll want you to fail, you know.
00:44:49I know.
00:44:51Anything less than perfect will be a disaster.
00:44:57Antony, eh?
00:45:10I can't sleep.
00:45:13No.
00:45:34I'm sorry.
00:45:38You were sorry.
00:45:42I'm sorry.
00:45:44I thought we'd have longer.
00:45:48Ma'am?
00:45:51Three hours to go now.
00:46:00What do you think will happen?
00:46:03When?
00:46:07When we land.
00:46:11What will happen then?
00:46:21Morning.
00:46:22Morning.
00:46:22The PM will not be joining us this morning.
00:46:26I'm very much tired from all the emotion of yesterday.
00:46:31So where is he?
00:46:32He's still asleep.
00:46:34So in his absence, as deputy, I will preside.
00:46:43The Queen's flight is...
00:46:45Wait a minute, Antony.
00:46:46If you're persuading over the meeting on behalf of the PM...
00:46:52Shouldn't you be sitting in the appropriate chair?
00:46:55I don't think that's entirely necessary.
00:46:57I don't think that's all right.
00:47:10Very well.
00:47:24Sir, the Queen's flight is now over Italy, having left the El Adem airfield in Libya at five this morning.
00:47:38Sorry to disturb.
00:47:45May I just say how very sorry I am that we'll not be working together anymore.
00:47:51Why?
00:47:52I have to give way to Sir Tommy Lassels.
00:47:56As private secretary to the Sovereign, he's my senior.
00:48:01This is where I have to stand aside for the great man.
00:48:04Martin.
00:48:07So sorry.
00:48:15Now.
00:48:19What a nightmare.
00:48:22Jodris at least had one foot in the real world.
00:48:26And was your man, our man, on our side?
00:48:32Or was Tommy Lassels stuck in the land that time for gold?
00:48:41You asked to see me, sir?
00:48:44I did.
00:48:47Will you sit?
00:48:49Thank you, sir.
00:48:52I'd assumed that, following the death of his late majesty, you would, at the earliest appropriate moment, be resuming your
00:49:02duties with the Royal Air Force.
00:49:04Yes, sir.
00:49:07I mentioned this to the Queen, the Queen Mother, this morning, who then asked me, quite unusually, to ask you
00:49:16whether you might like to reconsider such a departure.
00:49:20Yes, sir.
00:49:20She felt that you had enjoyed an uncommonly close association with her late husband, and earned not just his trust,
00:49:28but the trust and affection of the whole family.
00:49:31Thank you, sir.
00:49:32In the light of this, she wondered whether you might consider staying on in a new role as controller of
00:49:39the Queen Mother's household.
00:49:41I see.
00:49:41A kind and generous offer, as befits the widow of a kind and generous man.
00:49:51But, while I'm sure you're greatly flattered, I don't expect you to accept the post.
00:49:55Hence my discouragement of the offer.
00:49:58I didn't want Her Majesty to suffer the embarrassment of a refusal.
00:50:01Why would I not accept, sir?
00:50:04You're asking the wrong question, Townsend.
00:50:06Why would you?
00:50:08You're a decorated war hero, still in your prime, controller of the Queen Mother's household, has no military associations, would
00:50:15take you away from your wife and children.
00:50:18After all, the person with whom you enjoyed the uncommonly close understanding is deceased.
00:50:30Unless I'm missing something.
00:50:33Unless there is someone else with whom you enjoy an uncommonly close understanding, which would make accepting this post more
00:50:41attractive.
00:50:43I don't know what you're referring to, sir.
00:50:45Don't you, Group Captain Townsend?
00:50:48Husband and father.
00:50:52No, sir.
00:51:03You're probably telling yourself that because no one has confronted you about it, that no one can know.
00:51:10Allow me to disabuse you of that delusion.
00:51:14Within the close community of those that serve the family, I regret to tell you that talk, ugly talk, unbecoming
00:51:23tittle-tattle, is a little else.
00:51:25Now, I'm well aware of the toll that round-the-clock service takes on the private lives of those that
00:51:32serve.
00:51:33I am also aware of the feelings generated by continued close proximity to the people you're working for, but I
00:51:42would hate you to mistake those feelings for anything else.
00:51:58Will you thank the Queen Mother for her kind offer?
00:52:06I should be delighted to accept.
00:52:09There's no rush.
00:52:11Take your time to think it over.
00:52:13Seventy-two hours?
00:52:15A week?
00:52:17I want you to make the right decision.
00:52:19I already have, sir.
00:52:21The answer is yes.
00:52:56Over here...
00:52:57Ezekiel...
00:52:59I'll work out.
00:53:01We'll be ticked and down around...
00:53:01You.
00:53:06That's the one.
00:53:18Your Majesty, I've been asked to give you this
00:53:22and this map from Her Majesty Queen Mary.
00:53:29Thank you, Chodras.
00:53:31I'll take over from him.
00:53:39Thank you, Martin.
00:53:40Thank you, sir.
00:53:46Your Majesty.
00:53:50Martin.
00:54:10Dearest Lilibet.
00:54:13I know how you loved your papa, my son.
00:54:17And I know you will be as devastated as I am by this loss.
00:54:22But you must put those sentiments to one side now, for duty calls.
00:54:29The grief for your father's death will be felt far and wide.
00:54:34Your people will need your strength and leadership.
00:54:42I have seen three great monarchies brought down through their failure
00:54:47to separate personal indulgences from duty.
00:54:52You must not allow yourself to make similar mistakes.
00:54:57And while you mourn your father, you must also mourn someone else.
00:55:03Elizabeth Mountbatten.
00:55:07For she has now been replaced by another person.
00:55:11Elizabeth Regina.
00:55:17The two Elizabeths will frequently be in conflict with one another.
00:55:23The fact is, the crown must win.
00:55:31Must always win.
00:55:37Ready, ma'am.
00:55:38It's all right.
00:55:39I'll escort it out from here.
00:55:40No, sir, if you don't mind, the crown takes prescience.
00:56:13Stand by, everybody.
00:56:20Shocking, shocking.
00:56:36This is London.
00:56:39Three, two, three, two, one.
00:56:45One.
00:57:12When the death of the king was announced to us yesterday morning,
00:57:19there struck a deep and somber note in our lives,
00:57:24which resounded far and wide,
00:57:30stilled the clatter and traffic of 20th century life,
00:57:37and made countless millions of human beings around the world pause and look around them.
00:57:50The king was greatly loved by all his peoples.
00:57:58The greatest shocks ever felt by this island fell upon us in his reign.
00:58:07Never in our long history were we exposed to greater perils of invasion and destruction.
00:58:20The late king, who assumed the heavy burden of the crown when he succeeded his brother,
00:58:31I lived through every minute of this struggle with a heart that never quavered and a spirit undaunted.
00:58:52In the end, death came as a friend.
00:59:01And after a happy day of sunshine and sport,
00:59:06and after good night to those who loved him best,
00:59:11he fell asleep, as every man or woman who strives to fear God and nothing else in the world may
00:59:23hope to do.
00:59:43Now, I must leave the treasures of the past and turn to the future.
00:59:52Famous have been the reigns of our queens.
00:59:57Some of the greatest periods in our history have unfolded under their scepters.
01:00:06Queen Elizabeth II, like her namesake, Queen Elizabeth I,
01:00:14did not pass her childhood in any certain expectation of the crown.
01:00:22This new Elizabethan age comes at a time when mankind stands uncertainly poised.
01:00:31Wait.
01:00:32On the edge of catastrophe.
01:00:40I, whose youth was passed in the august, unchallenged, and tranquil glories of the Victorian era,
01:00:50may well feel a thrill in invoking once more the prayer and the anthem.
01:01:03God save the Queen.
01:01:07God save the King.
01:01:11Oh, my God.
01:02:05Oh, my God.
01:02:38Oh, my God.
01:02:40Oh, my God.
01:03:10Oh, my God.
