00:00You
00:34Ah, there you are. Come in. I'm practicing for the big day tomorrow and, um, I need an archbishop.
00:51Will you do me the honor from here?
01:00Is your majesty willing to take the oath?
01:05I am... willing.
01:11Will you maintain and preserve in... invi...
01:22Ah, inviolably. It means to make a promise you can... you can never break. A very sacred promise indeed.
01:37Yes!
01:40We're ready for you, sir.
01:42Oh, not yet, Tommy.
01:45We haven't even reached the anointing.
01:49You have to anoint me.
01:51Otherwise, I can't...
01:56Be king.
01:59Do you understand?
02:03When the holy oil touches me,
02:07I am...
02:09I am transformed.
02:13Brought into direct contact with the divine.
02:22Forever changed.
02:27Bound to God.
02:30It is the most important part of the entire ceremony.
02:36So we had better practice, hadn't we, Archbishop?
02:45Be thy hands anointed with holy oil.
02:55Be thy breast anointed with holy oil.
03:11As kings, priests, and prophets were anointed.
03:12Be thy head anointed with holy oil.
03:17As kings, priests, and prophets were anointed.
03:26Oh, goodness.
03:35That's very heavy indeed.
03:37Five pounds, sir.
03:39Not to mention the, uh, symbolic weight.
03:43Hmm?
03:45Mm-hm.
03:47Mm-hm.
03:48Mm-hm.
03:51Mm-hm.
03:52Mm-hm.
03:52Mm-hm.
03:52Mm-hm.
03:57As a sight I heard, I never see...
04:03Mm-hm.
04:09Mm-hm.
04:11Mm-hm.
04:11Mm-hm.
04:12Mm-hm.
04:12Mm-hm.
04:14Mm-hm.
04:20Mm-hm.
04:43It's not as easy as it looks.
04:47It's exactly what the king said.
04:51I remember.
04:56Do you suppose I could borrow it for a couple of days?
05:00Just to practice?
05:03Borrow it, ma'am?
05:05From whom?
05:07If it's not yours, whose is it?
05:25I do.

18:18in recent days
18:20thank you very much
18:40my dearest darling one
18:44london is as awful and hellish
18:47and as full of my smug
18:49stinking relations as ever
18:52each day i call on mama in the afternoon
18:56and although she doesn't look quite as bad
18:58as the doctors warned me
19:00she'll never again be able to leave her rooms
19:03far less go out in public
19:22Michaela
19:24what?
19:28Don't go.
19:32I'm not going anywhere, Mommy.
19:39It's one of the hardest things I've ever had to endure.
19:43And spending so much time with a woman who has been so vicious and inhumane to you, my beloved, is
19:50wearing me down.
19:52Amen.
19:59I'm sorry to disturb you, Your Royal Highness.
20:02What is it?
20:03The Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary called, sir, requesting a meeting between you and His Grace.
20:09Oh, what about?
20:10It didn't say, sir. He hoped you could make tomorrow.
20:15Fine, I have a few errands planned, but the Archbishop can come to lunch.
20:21As a matter of fact, they suggested 4 p.m.
20:24Well, all right. We'll give him tea.
20:28At Lambeth Palace.
20:32Of course.
20:35I'm no longer king.
20:37I go to them.
20:44Good night, Your Royal Highness.
21:01I go to the Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary, but the Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary, and the Archbishop of
21:06Canterbury's private secretary, and the Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary, and the Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary, and the Archbishop
21:07of Canterbury's private secretary, and the Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary, and the Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary, and the
21:07Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary, and the Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary, and the Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary, and
21:08the Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary, and the Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary, and the Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary,
21:10and the Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary, and the Archbishop of Canterbury's private secretary, and the Archbishop of Canterbury's private
21:22is royal highness the duke of windsor your grace goodness what is this
21:29an ambush not at all sir no just a gathering of old friends who come together to appeal to you
21:38in person in the hope that you will do what we all think would be the right thing
21:51regarding what the coronation
22:02we acknowledge as a as a member of the queen's close family you are entitled to attend
22:14but i also feel that the attendance at this sacred ceremony
22:21by one who however good his reasons did not feel capable of undertaking the obligations himself
22:36it could strike a wrong note and would be deeply upsetting to whom
22:44to everyone concerned i didn't ask you tommy
22:48this is cookie's work isn't it the queen mother's it's got her pudgy little fingers all over it she
22:56asked you to do her dirty work for her and you agreed archbishop shame on you i will attend
23:02if i want and i do want and so does my wife alas no sir of course the royal family
23:10is obliged to extend
23:11an invitation to you as a royal duke but that obligation does not extend to the duchess of windsor
23:18and it is my duty to inform you on behalf of the royal family and the government with whom we
23:23have
23:24worked in close consultation that she will not be offered an invitation oh it's mad
23:35the pusillanimity and vindictiveness knows no limits 17 years have elapsed since the abdication
23:46shouldn't bygones be bygones some things can never be forgotten which of us for example
23:52has forgotten the song you would compare the love and public commitment i made to my wife to slaughter
24:30her in a world war
24:30a beautiful young child symbol of maternity change and progress to turn a page
24:38surely the sophistication of a society can be measured by its tolerance and ability to forgive
24:44its weakness too sometimes lines just need to be drawn you know tommy you're an embarrassment to the
24:52institution you serve and to the country that institution serves in turn and i will take a
24:58lecture on national embarrassment from many people sir but not from you let's face it
25:06this whole thing is a charade you knew already the answer to the choice you have given me it
25:11is simply the same as the choice that caused all this offense in the first place namely would i do
25:16anything that excludes or disrespects the woman i love no never i will therefore not be attending the
25:24coronation of my own niece whose favorite uncle i have always been hers you should know was one of
25:31the strongest voices involved oh was it indeed well we know from where she gets that ice in her veins
25:37and it wasn't from my own dear weak brother nothing weak about the late king sir i'm sure i speak
25:44for
25:44everyone present when i call him a hero hear here my lord archbishop what a scold you are and when
25:57your
25:57man is down how very bold you are of christian charity how very scant you are you old lang swine
26:08how full of gant you are a rhyme composed for your perfidious predecessor at the time of my abdication
26:18i find the sentiment oddly applicable to you too
26:38if i were to release a statement could you have a look over it of course
26:48i'm aware that it's normal for no reigning monarchs to be present but a coronation
26:55perhaps we could extend that to include former kings too
27:00to spare my blushes might just throw some of the vultures off the scent
27:10it's an elegant solution sir and i'm quite sure cabinet will support it tommy
27:18i'll speak to their magisters and get back to you
27:42my own darling sweetheart well at last it's all over
27:49mama mama took ill in the afternoon then began hemorrhaging in the early hours
27:56doctors plied her with tranquilizers and morphine to ensure there was no suffering
28:01in the end she passed in her sleep i was sad of course but let's not forget how she clung
28:10to such
28:10hatred for me her eldest till the last i'm afraid her blood ran as icy cold when she was alive
28:20as it does now she's dead
28:24later in the day all the members of the family assembled to identify which of her personal
28:30possessions they were most like
28:31not entirely i told shirley temple what i had my eye on but as i shan be there when the
28:39jackals descend
28:39i don't suppose it will do much good what a vile tawdry rabble my relatives are
28:47and what a sad desiccated bunch of hyenas most of them have become
28:55but i'm tired of talking about it i yearn for our perfect life together away from the snarling and
29:04the sniping of the court i adore you my sweetheart more deeply than you will ever realize and i am
29:14furiously mad that you aren't here with me as you ought by right to be
29:23while queen mary lived something of the great reigns of queen victoria and george v
29:32seemed to live on with proving that character is as it will remain
29:41the essential strength of british monarchy wherever she went
29:48she was assured of an applause which sprang from some deep-seated affection
29:56you noticed identical to the funeral of your father nothing different not on detail
30:02like one guest like you and she always regarded herself as a servant of our country which she
30:13served to the end no sooner does someone in the family pop their clogs they ask themselves right
30:21how's it done last time it's doing exactly the same way again
30:28the people who have come to shame in it are locked outside
30:33well i'm not going to let your coronation be like this you're a young woman simply of a new era
30:39in a fast-changing
30:42modern world
30:46modern world
30:47and i think your coronation should reflect that
30:50for as much as it have pleased almighty god of his great mercy
31:05so
31:07so
31:10so
31:13I'm sure that certain people put the resurrection of the eternal life through our Lord Jesus Christ.
31:22The change of the fire of the body is made by the authorities.
31:27Good morning, Lord.
31:29I'm sorry.
31:34That's what I said.
31:36Ladies and gentlemen.
31:38You know what?
31:39Prime Minister of the Ladies and Gentlemen.
31:41You know what's Prime Minister of the Ladies and Gentlemen?
32:01We should go.
32:18Good morning.
32:23Hands up.
32:26What is the collective noun for a group of stuffy old tonians?
32:33A herd pack.
32:37A school.
33:06Gentlemen.
33:08I'd like to start by saying how very honored I feel to be working with all the great minds and
33:14talents here in this room today as we come together to organize the very best coronation for my wife, Queen.
33:24We all know the scale of the challenge that faces us.
33:28The eyes of the world will be on us.
33:30Britain will be on show.
33:31And we must put our best foot forward.
33:37In such circumstances, the temptation is to roll out the red carpet and follow the precedent set by the grand
33:44and successful coronations of the past.
33:48But looking to the past for our inspiration would be a mistake in my view.
33:56Britain today is not the Britain of past coronations.
33:59Assumptions made at the time of my father-in-law's coronation 17 years ago cannot be made anymore.
34:07That is why I think we should adapt this ceremony.
34:13Make it less ostentatious, more egalitarian, show more respect and sensitivity to the real world.
34:21We have a new sovereign, young and a woman.
34:24Let us give her a coronation that is befitting of the wind of change that she represents modern and forward
34:34-looking at a moment in time where exciting technological developments are making things possible we never dreamt of.
34:41Which brings me to my next point.
34:56It's an unconscionable vulgarization.
35:05How close are you proposing that these cameras get?
35:08They will be kept at a very discreet distance.
35:11No, no, close-up, sir.
35:17Zoom. Lenses.
35:18Oh, no. It will all be done with the greatest sensitivity and respect for the occasion.
35:34But I have had one or two broader thoughts about the service itself.
35:43What?
35:45What?
35:59We can both see what's going on here.
36:02A young couple are playing marital games with the most cherished parts of our history and pageantry.
36:08Our queen wouldn't agree with a single one of these radical proposals.
36:13Television being just the tip of the iceberg.
36:19She's simply trying to keep peace in her own bedchamber.
36:22By promoting her husband, keeping him happy and occupied and virile.
36:30That's what's going on here, Winston.
36:32Why?
36:33What else has he proposed?
36:40Prime Minister?
36:41Your Majesty.
37:02Please tell me this has nothing to do with my husband.
37:06I told him not to go mad.
37:10No one is questioning the Duke of Edinburgh's motives or the sincerity of his beliefs.
37:17I see. He went mad.
37:20The changes he is proposing to an ancient, sacred, never previously changed liturgy and text.
37:32If it went from top to toe, and if it were just a business, it would be applauded.
37:40But this isn't a business. It's the crown.
37:45And one has to ask oneself, what is the purpose of the crown?
37:50What is the purpose of the monarchy?
37:54Does the crown bend to the will of the people to be audited and accountable?
37:59Or should it remain above temporal matters?
38:08What say you?
38:13What say you?
38:14No, ma'am.
38:16What say you?
38:19The decision is yours to make.
38:23We will take our lead from you.
38:34Then, I'll turn you back.
38:43You'll be double-edged.
38:44Then, go.
38:44Then, go.
38:45Then, go.
38:46That's the one.
38:48Then, go.
38:52The last day, stop.
38:55Then, go.
38:58Then, go.
39:00Then, go.
39:01Then, go.
39:03Then, go.
39:27What is this, hide and seek?
39:29I told you not to overstep the mark.
39:31And I made it clear, can't blanch, you're nothing at all.
39:33Trade unionists and businessmen in the Abbey.
39:36If you want to stay on the throne, yes.
39:38In a trim-down televised coronation.
39:40If you want to avoid a revolution, yes, you forget.
39:43I have seen firsthand what it is like for a royal family to be overthrown because they're out of step
39:48with the people.
39:48I left Greece in an orange crate.
39:51My father would have been killed.
39:52My grandfather was.
39:53I'm just trying to protect you.
39:55From whom?
39:56The British people?
39:57You have no idea who they are or what they want.
40:00Oh, oh, I'm just Johnny Foreigner again who doesn't understand.
40:03Fine, fine.
40:04You want a big overblown ceremony costing a fortune while the rest of the country is on rations?
40:09Have it.
40:10But don't come bleating to me when your head and the heads of our children are on spikes.
40:15If the people are hungry, they want something that lifts them up.
40:18And how do you propose lifting them if they cannot see it?
40:23The people look to the monarchy for something bigger than themselves.
40:26An inspiration, a higher ideal.
40:28If you put it in their homes, allow them to watch it with their dinner on their lips.
40:33Democratize it.
40:34Make them feel that they share in it.
40:36Understand it.
40:37All right.
40:39All right.
40:40I'll support you in the televised.
40:45You won't regret it.
40:48On one condition.
40:52That you kneel.
41:07Who told you?
41:09My Prime Minister.
41:12He said you intended to refuse.
41:14No, I merely asked the question.
41:15Whether it was right in this day and age that the Queen's consort, her husband, should kneel to her rather
41:21than stand beside her.
41:23You won't be kneeling to me.
41:25That's not how it will look.
41:26That's not how it will feel.
41:27It will feel like a eunuch.
41:29An amoeba is kneeling before his wife.
41:31You'll be kneeling before God and the crown, as we all do.
41:34I don't see you kneeling before anyone.
41:35I'm not kneeling because I'm already flattened under the weight of this thing.
41:38Oh, spare me the false humility.
41:40It doesn't look like that to me.
41:41How does it look to you?
41:42It looks to me like you're enjoying it.
41:43It's released an unattractive sense of authority and entitlement that I have never seen before.
41:48And in you it's released a weakness, an insecurity I've never seen before.
41:51Are you my wife or my Queen?
41:53I'm both.
41:54I want to be married to my wife.
41:56I am both and a strong man will be able to kneel to both.
41:59I will not kneel before my wife.
42:00But your wife is not asking you to.
42:02But my Queen commands me.
42:03Yes.
42:03I beg you make an exception for me.
42:11No.
42:50I don't think I'm going to be married to my wife.
43:01Come on, they'll be here soon.
43:08David, you're our host, darling.
43:15You're right there.
43:37All right, everyone, she's arriving, the dreaded gold stake coach, made in the 1760s, and the
43:47most uncomfortable ride known to man.
43:56Final checks, please, gentlemen.
43:59West door.
44:00West door, sir.
44:02Triforium.
44:03Triforium, standing by, sir.
44:05South transept.
44:07Triforium, standing by, sir.
44:08Orban screen.
44:09Orban screen, standing by, sir.
44:10Triforium two.
44:12Triforium two, standing by, sir.
44:14Gentlemen.
44:16Three, two, one.
44:42Who's that?
44:48Oh, it's Lord Mountbatten, the Duke of Edinburgh's uncle, the man that gave away India and his
44:57his own wife, cuckolded by Nehru, if you please.
45:11Five for him, two.
45:13And left, please.
45:15Yes.
45:17Yes.
45:32Praise for the Lord, come ye before him and rejoice.
45:54Moving forwards now, four knights of the garden, the Dukes of Wellington and Portland, the Earl
46:00Fortescue and the Mike-Ont-Allendale, bringing with them a golden canopy to shield her majesty
46:06from view during the most sacred of the coronation rituals, the anointing.
46:12In three, two, one.
46:23Where'd she go?
46:26Well, now we come to the anointing, the single most holy, most solemn, most sacred moment,
46:39the entire service.
46:43So how come we don't get to see it?
46:47Because we are mortals.
46:48And we are mortals.
46:49My.
46:51A.
46:53A.
47:01A.
47:19Is your majesty willing to take the oath?
47:24I am willing.
47:28Will you maintain and preserve this?
47:41Invariably.
47:46I will.
47:54I will.
48:12Is your hands anointed with holy oil?
48:36With thy breast I anointed with holy oil.
48:48Be thy head anointed with holy oil.
49:00As kings, priests, and prophets were anointed.
49:09And as Solomon was anointed king by Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet, so be thou anointed, blessed, and
49:33consecrated queen over the peoples.
49:36Whom the Lord thy God hath given thee to rule and govern in the name of the Father, and of
49:50the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
49:57Amen.
49:59Amen.
50:02Amen.
50:13Oils and oaths, orbs and scepters.
50:18symbol upon symbol, an unfathomable web of arcane mystery and liturgy, blurring so many
50:30lines, no clergyman or historian or lawyer could ever untangle any of it.
50:39It's crazy.
50:40On the contrary, it's perfectly sane.
50:43Who wants transparency when you can have magic?
50:49Who wants prose when you can have poetry?
50:54Pull away the veil, and what are you left with?
50:59An ordinary young woman of modest ability and little imagination.
51:07Wrap her up like this, anoint her with oil, and hey presto, what do you have?
51:18The goddess.
51:39The goddess.
51:42The goddess.
51:44The goddess.
51:56The goddess.
52:15And to think you turned all that down, that chance to be a god.
52:27I turned it down for something greater still.
52:39For love.
53:04For love.
53:05For love.
53:07For love.
53:09For love.
53:09For love.
53:09For love.
53:21For love.
53:33For love.
53:38For love.
53:42For love.
53:47For love.
53:52For love.
53:53For love.
53:53For love.
