00:22:38This is where 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, and they won't come out like this again.
00:23:05Ma'am, sir, just before we take off, I thought I might go through the itinerary for our first day
00:23:10in Jamaica.
00:23:11Goody.
00:23:12Yes, sir. Do sit down, Michael.
00:23:15We arrive at noon to be greeted by the governor, representative of the West Indian Islands,
00:23:20and the guard of all art be formed by the Jamaican assembly.
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, her 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.
00:23:50Give 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 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.
00:25:02You're wrong, heinous.
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 deputizing for my sister tonight, I was wondering if I might make one
00:25:27or two minor adjustments to the text.
00:25:30Ma'am?
00:25:31Give it a bit more color.
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 them.
00:25:42There will be important people at the reception tonight of different backgrounds, different sensibilities.
00:25:51The speech has been carefully calibrated to avoid giving offense.
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.
00:26:06But 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?
00:27:11your 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
00:27:52of those lovely islands or the echoes of that music or the welcome of cheerful and friendly
00:27:59people wherever my sister may travel is what i see as i look out from this stage tonight
00:28:07as i look out at all of you tonight my don't you all look wonderful
00:28:15and shimmering when positively exotic
00:28:20and what fine company we have here tonight our ambassador to the united states of america

00:32:20thank you
00:32:22thank you
00:33:14Here she is at last, amongst us, charming our people in city after city.
00:33:23Open-handed Sydney first, then good-hearted Adelaide.
00:33:30On to Venerable Hobart, nestling at the cool feet of Mount Wilmington.
00:33:40That's it.
00:33:41The castle of May.
00:33:44Isn't she bonnie?
00:33:48Oh, yes.
00:33:53And what a view.
00:33:55Oh, yes.
00:34:01Oh, my God.
00:34:08Oh, my God.
00:34:25Captain Imbert Terry.
00:34:28Commander Viner.
00:34:29Lady Doris.
00:34:32And, uh...
00:34:36We've met.
00:34:38I don't think so.
00:34:39Yes, yes, yes.
00:34:41It's your... your face.
00:34:44It's very familiar.
00:34:47Don't say a thing.
00:34:47It'll come to me.
00:34:49May we come in?
00:34:51Yes, yes.
00:34:56Well, if you were to be interested in property, I've got to be entirely honest.
00:35:01The, uh... the roof...
00:35:05does need a... does need a bit of work.
00:35:07And one or two windows might need replacing.
00:35:10And the, uh... the electricity does need, well...
00:35:14installing.
00:35:15And there's no dining room to speak of.
00:35:18Nor bathrooms.
00:35:19And I sold off most of the good shooting and fishing.
00:35:23Oh, dear.
00:35:23You're really not a salesman.
00:35:25In fact, the place is in such a state, I'd sooner make a gift of it.
00:35:30I'm afraid I'd be quite unable to accept.
00:35:33Why not?
00:35:35It'd be frowned upon.
00:35:36It's something to do with who I am.
00:35:39You're an actress.
00:35:40A famous film star.
00:35:44No.
00:35:44A singer, then?
00:35:46No.
00:35:47It's on the tip of my tongue.
00:35:54It, um, dates back to the, uh, to the mid-17th century.
00:36:00It was in the, uh...
00:36:01It was in the same family for 14 generations.
00:36:04We bought a place in 1929.
00:36:07My wife and I had been living.
00:36:09Very happy years ago.
00:36:11It all came...
00:36:16The solution is, is all this.
00:36:20Stop smiling.
00:36:21No.
00:36:22The trouble is I have the sort of face that if I'm not smiling,
00:36:25then everyone says, oh, isn't she cross?
00:36:28No, that's not...
00:36:29What...
00:36:30What do you think, Doctor?
00:36:32It's a spasm.
00:36:33The muscles are overworked.
00:36:36Rest ought to fix it, though.
00:36:37Like I said, stop smiling.
00:36:39No.
00:36:40I have an engagement this evening.
00:36:41So what can be done?
00:36:44Well, I could inject the affected area with a relaxant.
00:36:48You'd have to watch yourself with soup, though.
00:36:51You might find you have less control chewing and drinking.
00:36:54And it's not a long-term solution.
00:36:57Oh.
00:36:58All right.
00:36:59I'll have the injection.
00:37:01Good God.
00:37:02What?
00:37:02And dribble soup all over your dress.
00:37:04Do you know...
00:37:06The other night, I woke up with my right arm out from under the bedclothes.
00:37:10Do you know what I've been doing?
00:37:11I've been waving to the crowds in my sleep.
00:37:16All right.
00:37:21Hold still, please.
00:37:22Your Majesty.
00:37:24Oh.
00:37:36American planes, guns, and ammunition are helping the French and Vietnam forces.
00:37:41Russian and Chinese weapons are aiding the Vietnam.
00:37:48Princess Margaret dons white overalls when she visits Calverton Colliery in Nottinghamshire.
00:37:53A visit to the Coalface, a quarter of a mile underground, is included in her tour of the colliery,
00:37:58which is recognized as one of the most modern in Europe.
00:38:01After almost an hour underground, the Princess brings back a souvenir.
00:38:05A piece of coal she hewed herself.
00:38:07Did you, er, enjoy the mining, your royal miners?
00:38:10I did.
00:38:11Very much.
00:38:12Although it's jolly dusty down there.
00:38:14Some even went into my mouth, but I can assure you, it tastes delicious.
00:38:18When I've experienced the conditions, do you have sympathy for the miners that work there?
00:38:22One could fail to have sympathy for anyone who has to spend their working life down there.
00:38:27It's intolerably dark, and hot, and cramped.
00:38:31To my eyes, it seems conditions are still very perilous for these poor, brave men
00:38:35who work underground for so very little.
00:38:38And, er, what would you say to the authorities regarding the matter?
00:38:42Ah.
00:38:43No, I have nothing further to say.
00:38:45Who's to go for?
00:38:50I have someone very special of mine.
00:38:54Group Captain Townsend?
00:38:58Are you missing him?
00:39:01Yes, I am.
00:39:02Very much.
00:39:04And are you missing your sister, Her Majesty the Queen?
00:39:09Not quite as much, no.
00:39:22Why not did you say that?
00:39:24What?
00:39:24That you missed me.
00:39:25I did.
00:39:26I do.
00:39:27I know, but that wasn't wise.
00:39:29Why not?
00:39:34You can't use a public occasion to take a dig at your sister like that.
00:39:40Don't you start too?
00:39:41It's just, the palace won't like it.
00:39:44And we need the palace on our side.
00:39:49Who is it you think you'll be letting down anyway?
00:39:51A koala?
00:39:53This whole thing is a circus.
00:39:55It's a miserable circus.
00:39:58It's trudging from town to town.
00:40:00You know, they're dancing bears.
00:40:07What are you doing?
00:40:08No, I'm taking back this small pleasure.
00:40:10You've taken away too much.
00:40:11No, no, no.
00:40:12Go see for Kendall.
00:40:15Yeah.
00:40:16Forty a day your father smoked and now I know why.
00:40:18Poor bastard.
00:40:19You know, he probably took one look at this tour and thought,
00:40:21Do you know what?
00:40:22I'll be better off with cancer.
00:40:24Shut up.
00:40:28What is it you're trying to prove?
00:40:30What is it you want to hear him say?
00:40:34Bravo, Lilibet.
00:40:36Manage the whole tour.
00:40:38Lilibet never lets you down.
00:40:40Ticked every box.
00:40:43Never put a foot wrong.
00:40:45Now, finally, I love you more than I love Margaret.
00:40:49Get out!
00:40:50What does that mean?
00:40:50Get out of me!
00:40:51Get out of me, boy!
00:40:53Fuck!
00:40:56Don't you dare!
00:40:57I'm back here!
00:40:58Christ!
00:41:36Let me go and have a work.
00:41:38No.
00:41:43I'll do it.
00:41:44Are you going to have a work?
00:41:52I'm sorry for that little interlude.
00:41:57Although I'm sure it must happen in every marriage.
00:42:02Now, what would you like me to do for your newsreel?
00:42:29Another gift for your Majesty.
00:42:37Your royal highness, when you appear in public,
00:42:43performing official duties, you are not you.
00:42:46Of course I am me.
00:42:47Expressing political opinions about working conditions in mines,
00:42:52that business at Sadler's Wells.
00:42:55And no one wants you to be you.
00:42:57They want you to be it.
00:42:58A statue. A thing.
00:43:01The crown. That's what they've come to see.
00:43:03Not you.
00:43:05The minute you become yourself, you shatter the illusion,
00:43:10break the spell.
00:43:10What people want is someone to inhabit it.
00:43:14Not be frightened of it.
00:43:16Make it flesh and blood.
00:43:18Bring it to life.
00:43:19Your uncle, Edward VIII, threatened to do just that.
00:43:23Impose his individuality on the institution.
00:43:26Bring 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, but I have decided that all remaining royal engagements
00:43:39in the Queen's absence should 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.
00:44:10Did you come along the coast?
00:44:13I did.
00:44:13You 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.
00:44:30I've, um, I'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.
00:44:47Brace yourself.
00:44:49One hundred pounds.
00:44:53What?
00:44:54Oh, I'm sorry.
00:44:56Is 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.
00:45:27Oh, only 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?
00:45:37That'd be lovely.
00:45:54Your majesty.
00:45:55Your majesty.
00:45:57Forgive 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 for?
00:46:06This is all the information that I have.
00:46:12It seems I must go.
00:46:16Oh, my God.
00:46:19This finally come to you.
00:46:23Why on earth didn't you say, ma'am?
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.
00:46:41You'll be sick.
00:46:41I'm sorry.
00:46:41I feel как-
00:46:42Oh, my God.
00:46:49I feel like it's open.
00:47:09Oh, my God.
00:47:10Oh, my God.
00:47:11Come on.
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 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.
00:48:32Strong people with powerful characters.
00:48:36More natural leaders, perhaps better suited to leading from the front, making a mark.
00:48:41But 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.
00:49:42You're welcome.
00:49:45You're welcome.
00:49:47her majesty as a woman of destiny.
00:49:51Her return to London after 50,000 miles
00:49:54by air, land, and sea
00:49:57is a triumph of diplomacy
00:49:59at a challenging time for the Empire.
00:50:02Not a single item of the enormous list of engagements
00:50:06has been missed.
00:50:09Millions have seen and eaten their queen
00:50:11as she leave the Commonwealth charmed and united.
00:50:18It is already clear that her majesty
00:50:20will occupy a place among the famous queens of history
00:50:24and promises a renewed role for Britain
00:50:27in the modern world.
00:50:30The empire secure across the four corners of the earth,
00:50:34marking the start of a new Elizabethan age.
00:51:03The prime minister's arrived.
00:51:12You can't get away from me.
00:51:16The Prime Minister, Majesty.
00:51:21Congratulations, Your Majesty.
00:51:23Thank you, Winston.
00:51:24An unqualified tribe.
00:51:26Well, and their escape, I see.
00:51:27Could so easily have 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 impact.
00:51:35And before the tour, our great nation was in danger of losing much of its status.
00:51:43Our influence, our standing.
00:51:46Your 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
00:52:01Make 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.
00:52:27I can let you, my Lord.
