00:12C'est bon, c'est bon.
00:17C'est bon, c'est bon.
00:19C'est, c'est bon.
00:21C'est bon, c'est bon.
00:22Lovers say that in France.
00:25C'est bon, c'est bon.
00:26When they thrill to romance.
00:28C'est bon, c'est bon.
00:30It means that it's so good.
00:34Ah, c'est bon.
00:37C'est bon, c'est bon.
00:38So I say it to you.
00:41C'est bon, c'est bon.
00:42Like the French people do.
00:45All the breakfast, all the breakfast.
00:46Because it's all so good.
00:49I wonder how many of them are aware of the tension behind the scenes.
00:51Every word.
00:53Some of these people have paid a thousand pounds for a ticket.
00:58All that remains for the performance.
01:00All that remains for the performance.
01:01It's just sort out.
01:01All that remains for the performance.
01:03It's just sort out.
01:03And it's just there.
01:06Oh, it's so good.
01:09Work is partial.
01:10Now the elf characters surround the court.
01:14The queen, we're told, is just versus away.
01:23The queen, the real star of tonight, steps out onto the red carpet to be greeted by the much-loved
01:30theatrical impresario of Delphont,
01:33president of the entertainment artist Benevolent Fun.
01:36For tonight is the night when the world of show business and royalty come together for a good call.
01:42For you, Annette.
01:43For your love.
01:45For the challenge.
01:46Do this.
01:47Do this.
01:48Do this.
01:49Do this.
01:50Right then, George.
01:53And now.
01:54Good national anthem.
01:58Do this.
01:59Do this.
02:00Do.
02:01Do.
02:01Do.
02:01Do.
02:01Do.
02:02Do.
02:02Well started, has it?
02:13Right then, Catherine, there you are.
02:16You are good.
02:16And you, Nerissa.
02:19And you are good.
02:22Good girl.
02:24Its well done.
02:26Well done.
02:29How are you doing, sir?
02:32That's on.
03:00That's on.
03:32That's on.
04:02That's on.
04:41That's on.
05:00If you say run, I'll run with you.
05:09If you say hide, you'll hide.
05:23I have come tonight with a gift.
05:26Oh.
05:27Gossip.
05:28My favorite.
05:30Is it wicked?
05:32Very.
05:33Is it about someone famous?
05:36Yes.
05:37But I must ask you to keep it a secret.
05:39No, doobie boy.
05:42I'll be the judge of that when I hear it.
05:44Ma'am.
05:44You're not taking this seriously.
05:48How can you tell?
05:50This is a huge secret.
05:53It's virtually a state secret.
05:56I'm...
05:57I'm all ears.
06:00And eyes.
06:02And lips.
06:03All right.
06:05Did you say lips?
06:13Are you feeling naughty?
06:16Yes, I can see that.
06:18Mm-hmm.
06:23Ma'am, I have greatly enjoyed the last few months and the closeness that has developed between us.
06:31It's not closeness, intimacy.
06:33Oh, God.
06:38Please.
06:58There was a time when the men I loved would simply leave me for other women.
07:03Now they're leaving for the church.
07:05Who?
07:06Derek Jennings.
07:08Dazzle.
07:08Yes, Dazzle.
07:10What were we doing with him?
07:12Falling slightly in love?
07:15Oh, Margaret.
07:16Mm.
07:17Colin Tennant said we were the two most impossible people.
07:20He knew that we should be kept apart at all costs in the interests of public safety,
07:25like nitrogen and glycerin.
07:27But he's so handsome.
07:30Yes.
07:31Has an unkind word for everyone, which I adore.
07:37And touching vulnerability, and touching vulnerability, and because he has found happiness as elusive as me, so we discuss all
07:48the different kinds of ways that we try to find joy and calm.
07:53A good brisk walk, I say.
07:54Hmm.
07:55Yes, that might work for you.
07:57It does, every time.
07:58But it might not be enough for the rest of us.
08:01And Dazzle has found the thing that works best for him.
08:08Which is?
08:10The priesthood.
08:11Catholic priesthood?
08:12Yes.
08:13Well, that's the second reason he was never the right man for you.
08:19The first being, well, he's, you know, a friend of Dorothy.
08:27Dazzle.
08:27Famously, yes.
08:29You sure?
08:31But the way he looks at me sometimes.
08:34Hmm.
08:35Describe that.
08:36With great, big, adoring eyes.
08:39I think you're fine.
08:40That's because you're a royal princess, and he's a raging snob.
08:45Am I that stupid?
08:48Or desperate?
08:50I don't like the sound of that cough.
08:52That's fine.
08:53And you've been struggling with your chest for a while.
08:55Should have realized when he kept suggesting going to the opera.
09:22Princess Margaret is undergoing investigative surgery at the Royal Brumpton Hospital.
09:27The 54-year-old princess, who was admitted this afternoon, is unlikely to learn the results of those procedures for
09:33several days.
09:34But royal sources say she has not been suffering from any specific ailment.
09:38The hospital has declined to release any further details on the princess's condition.
09:42It's thought that Princess Margaret was smoking as many as 60 cigarettes a day, and that, of course, would go
09:47against any medical advice.
09:47I think we'll switch this off, shall we?
09:49Princess Margaret will be fine.
09:51Princess Margaret will be fine.
09:54Princess Margaret is in good hands.
09:58All right, Catherine.
09:59John, come on.
10:00Why don't I say that?
10:01Don't be difficult now.
10:03Catherine, come on.
10:04Right.
10:05Come on, it's bedside.
10:06Donnie needs to go to bed now.
10:08She's going to shake.
10:11All together.
10:13We're all prepared as well.
10:16Bloody guys, Catherine, you're this one.
10:21Thanks for listening.
10:26Bye.
10:28Bye.
10:35Bye.
10:40Bye.
10:42Bye.
10:55Happy birthday to you.
11:00Happy birthday to you.
11:04Happy birthday to you, everyone.
11:10Happy birthday to you.
11:24Children-wise, we seem to do things in twos in this family.
11:28I can honestly say I never wanted four.
11:31A brace would have been quite enough for me,
11:33but the boss put her foot down
11:35after a tough negotiation on the yacht in Lisbon in a storm.
11:41Do you remember?
11:42Yes, I do.
11:44Along came another two.
11:47The B team.
11:48It's the second eleven.
11:50Who have been very special.
11:52Not that the first lot aren't special,
11:54but they were expected, I suppose, duty.
11:57Whereas the second lot came out of...
12:01I was going to say pleasure,
12:02but that's really not the right word.
12:04Judging by Anne's face.
12:07That's the word I'm looking for.
12:09Joy?
12:10Exactly.
12:11Joy.
12:13They were conceived in reconciliation.
12:17They have bound us all together and brought great joy.
12:21So, please, raise your glasses.
12:27Oh, Margot.
12:31Many, many happy returns to...
12:35I'm sorry, what's your name again?
12:38The runt of the litter, dear Edward.
12:41Happy birthday.
12:42Happy birthday.
12:44You want the big piece?
12:45Yeah.
12:46I like all of that.
12:47Come off it.
12:48I'll drop it up in two.
12:50As soon as it's your sister's birthday,
12:53you get the extra big piece.
12:56Mmm.
12:57See?
12:58Has everyone seen it?
12:59Yes.
13:05I remember the day that one was christened.
13:12And there's a photograph of us both with our babies.
13:15Yes.
13:16You were holding yours as if it were a bomb.
13:19No.
13:21You're looking terribly glum,
13:23having just had another huge row with Tony.
13:25Hm.
13:26He was never the right man for you.
13:28Well, I've come to the view
13:30that there is no right man for me.
13:32You don't see that.
13:33No, it's true.
13:34Love has a tender kiss for most people.
13:36For me, she saves her sharpest X.
13:41Well, I am ready for a new chapter.
13:45Without men.
13:47Without cigarettes.
13:51Without...
13:58I'm finally ready.
14:00To focus on the one thing that won't let me down.
14:04What's that?
14:05Us.
14:06My position as a royal.
14:09My duty.
14:10My duty.
14:11So,
14:12I come
14:13on bended knee
14:15with a familiar request.
14:18Give me
14:19as much responsibility as you can.
14:23As many jobs,
14:24as much work.
14:25If your sister needs
14:27to stay afloat,
14:29it's a sense of meaning.
14:31I need to stop.
14:34I can't beat you.
14:36Yeah.
14:37Uh-huh.
14:39No.
14:41No.
14:42No.
14:44No.
14:44No.
15:16Hello, you.
15:18Hello, you.
15:22And hello, him.
15:24Your Royal Highness.
15:25We're not interrupting, are we?
15:26No, not at all.
15:27Renee is coming at noon.
15:30Oh, a new bow?
15:31No, a new hairdresser.
15:34Another friend of Dorothy's.
15:36Ah.
15:37Other than that, nothing.
15:39No?
15:41The day stretches before me like a great yawning void.
15:50So.
15:54What do you want?
15:57Can't be good news, or you wouldn't have wrought lurch.
16:03Ma'am, we've come to talk to you about the 1937 Regency Act, which created a list of senior royals
16:10who could be called on to deputise for the monarch on formal occasions.
16:15Yes, I know all about that.
16:17I've been stepping in for half a year.
16:19Yeah.
16:21But there is a specific number of those senior royals, just six.
16:28Go on.
16:29Well, the recent 21st birthday of Prince Edward means that he is now of age.
16:35And as a child of the sovereigns, well, he ranks higher than you in the line of succession.
16:44And you will therefore be required to relinquish your role as councillor of state.
16:55Don't take that away from me.
16:56It's all I've got.
16:57Oh, Margaret.
16:58It makes no sense.
17:00I have the maturity.
17:01I have the wisdom.
17:02Not to mention the experience.
17:04Edward's a boy.
17:06He's an immature, useless boy.
17:08Yes, that may be.
17:08But we all have to play by the rules.
17:11You will have time to concentrate on your convalescence.
17:15Would you leave us, please?
17:19Leave us.
17:38I don't want more time.
17:42Don't you see?
17:46Time.
17:47It scares me.
17:49It fills me with dread.
17:52I want...
17:55I want something.
17:58To fill it with.
17:59Well, you still have your interests.
18:01Oh, please.
18:03And your friends?
18:04Friends.
18:06The ones worth knowing.
18:07They're fed up with me.
18:09Your charities?
18:10Charities?
18:11They don't want me either.
18:13No, not now.
18:14We have the Princess of Wales.
18:17She's younger.
18:18She's nicer.
18:19Prettier.
18:20No.
18:21Nobody wants this.
18:22Oh, Margot.
18:24I asked you for just one thing.
18:27To give me work.
18:29A purpose.
18:31Dignity.
18:31Yes, and if it were up to me, I would have given it all to you.
18:35The whole show.
18:36Gladly.
18:36From day one.
18:38But it's not.
18:40So we have to live with it.
18:41No.
18:42I will have to live with it.
18:43Not you.
18:44I will.
18:45I will.
18:46I will.
18:47I will.
18:56I will.
18:59I will.
19:03I will.
20:04Everything all right?
20:05No.
20:06No.
20:07No.
20:09No.
20:10No.
20:11No.
20:11No.
20:12No.
20:12No.
20:13No.
20:14No.
20:14No.
20:14No.
20:27No.
20:28No.
20:31No.
20:32No.
20:33No.
20:34No.
20:35No.
20:36No.
20:37No.
20:40No.
20:41No.
20:46No.
20:48No.
20:51No.
20:56No.
20:58No.
20:59No.
21:11No.
21:13No.
21:15No.
21:16No.
21:17No.
22:17Ta-ra!
22:19All dry.
22:23Lunch.
22:34What a wonderful spot.
22:37You should have seen it in this heyday.
22:40It's rather sad now.
22:41It's neglected.
22:43Gone to see it.
22:45Look at these heliconias.
22:50Is that a silk codpin tree?
22:52Hmm?
22:53Yes.
22:55The challenge for any gardener is the pruning.
22:58You need a very nimble face.
23:03What do you mean?
23:07The garden or the neglect?
23:10Sadly.
23:12Both.
23:33Diana's pregnant again.
23:37Congratulations.
23:44Which one might imagine would lift this spirit.
23:47Instead, an even deeper gloom seems to have descended on both of us.
23:52We hardly see one another anymore.
23:54And when we do, we quarrel more than ever.
23:59It's so depressing.
24:02Corrosive.
24:03Oh.
24:06And it's left me with no option but to start seeing someone.
24:10Yes.
24:11I think we all know about that.
24:12No, not Camilla.
24:13I meant a professional.
24:18A therapist to help with the moods.
24:20A head shrinker.
24:23But, Margaret, you can't call him that.
24:26Has it helped?
24:27Well, it hasn't made things worse.
24:29Not much of an endorsement.
24:33The reason I bring it up is I promised Anne that I would urge you to try seeing someone too.
24:40Are you both ganging up on me?
24:42You both care.
24:45Why not try when you're back in London?
24:47Anne thinks she's found someone good.
24:57It's outrageous that I, in HRH, should travel to see her.
25:02I gather it's part of the process that the patient accepts that they are the patient.
25:10Apparently, the healing cannot start until the grandiosity is diminished.
25:15What grandiosity?
25:16I'm so far down the royal pecking order these days.
25:20I'm virtually untouchable.
25:21Here we are.
25:34I had therapy once before.
25:38In the early days of my marriage to Lord Snowden.
25:42The problem we face is I'm, well, I'm so opposed to all of this, I find it so pathetic.
25:48Violet's everything I was brought up to believe.
25:49What were you brought up to believe?
25:52Self-pity won't get you very far.
25:56I've just got to get on with it.
25:59Well, that's a very common attitude.
26:01It's also quite an old-fashioned attitude.
26:04Did you just call me common?
26:05And old?
26:09Because that would not be a good way to start.
26:16So, what made you want to try again?
26:19Ma'am.
26:20Ma'am.
26:37Because, well, I'm ashamed to say I've been feeling a little low for a while now.
26:48And this current slump seems to have resisted every attempt I've made to muscle through.
27:02Are you aware of anyone else in your immediate family struggling with mental health issues?
27:14Prince of Wales.
27:15He has his ups and downs.
27:17I wouldn't say that's a condition.
27:19That's just marriage.
27:22The Duke of Gloucester.
27:24My uncle.
27:26He got low.
27:27From time to time.
27:29I only ask because I am aware, through professional colleagues, of the sisters.
27:37Sisters?
27:40What sisters?
27:43That's when she told me about our cousins.
27:46Our first cousins, Catherine and Larissa Bowes-Lyon.
27:50Third and fifth daughters of mummy's favourite elder brother, Uncle Jock.
27:54Being locked up in the Earlswood Institution for mental defectives, if you please, in Red Hill.
28:00Yes, I remember hearing about Catherine and Larissa.
28:03And their terrible problems.
28:06But they're long dead.
28:09It's my understanding they're both very much alive.
28:12But we can check.
28:15What are you doing?
28:16That's my button.
28:20Oh, here we are.
28:21It burks.
28:25Let me do that.
28:26I'll do that now.
28:27I'm fine.
28:35Here we are.
28:36Oh, heavy.
28:43Catch.
28:43Don't you dare.
28:45Not funny.
28:46Go carefully.
28:50Yes.
28:51Oh, it's here.
28:58Oh, yes.
28:59Look, here it is.
29:00Larissa, deceased, 1940.
29:04Catherine, deceased, 1961.
29:06There it is in black and white.
29:07Both died long ago.
29:09Oh, strange.
29:18Not here.
29:25Who was it?
29:27Mr. Jennings, ma'am.
29:29Dazzle.
29:31What did he want?
29:32To let you know that he was going to be in London next week for a few days.
29:36In case you had any time.
29:40No.
29:44No.
29:51What?
29:52I'm Marcia, Dolores.
29:53I'm 48, Laura.
29:54Dazzle, you're not praying, are you?
29:55I am.
29:57I'm Marcia, Gratia.
29:58When was the last time you drove a car?
30:00I tried all the time.
30:02Well, maybe not this particular model.
30:05Anyway, you're a fine one to talk.
30:07You can't drive at all.
30:09You say I recognize my limitations.
30:12Well, I'd have been happy for the chauffeur to drive us, but then...
30:15What are you doing?
30:17Well, then we wouldn't have been alone.
30:19Why is it so important that we're alone?
30:44Someone asks me who I am.
30:46They won't.
30:46You're a priest.
30:47But I'm not.
30:48Not yet.
30:49I'm still just a seminarian.
30:50I don't know that.
30:52You still look suitably clerical and beyond suspicion.
30:55Feels wrong, ma'am.
30:57Deceitful.
30:59You can always confess later.
31:01Now go.
31:20You're good.
31:22I'm just ready.
31:23I'm just ready.
32:08They are alive.
32:10You saw them?
32:11I did.
32:15How were they?
32:20They are like children, ma'am.
32:23But they know who you are.
32:26And they know who your sister is.
32:30They have pictures of the whole family,
32:33which they know is their family.
32:40Love that one, don't you?
32:42Oh, yes.
32:43Keeps it in pride of play, she does.
32:48Oh.
32:55Shall I get your cousins to say hello?
32:57Did you say cousins?
33:01Hello.
33:01Hello.
33:02And there are more.
33:06More what?
33:09More relatives.
33:11Cousins of theirs equally afflicted.
33:16Sit down.
33:19All family together.
33:21All family together.
33:24Have a seat.
33:52Oh, damn it!
33:53What a surprise! We were just in bed for lunch.
33:56Not hungry.
33:58Oh, we're starving. We've all been for long walks this morning.
34:03Well, you and I are about to go for another.
34:06You don't mind if I steal her away, do you?
34:09No, not at all.
34:17Five! Five, Mummy!
34:20Five members of our close family locked up and neglected.
34:23What do you expect us to do? Behave like human beings.
34:26Don't be so naive. We had no choice.
34:30They're your nieces.
34:32Daughters of your favourite brother.
34:34They were unwell. Aunt Rinella was overwhelmed.
34:38And then the way things suddenly changed for all of us. None of us could have foreseen it.
34:42It was it.
34:44Well, the abdication of course...
34:45Not everything that is wrong with this family can be explained away by the abdication.
34:50But the abdication did change everything.
34:53You were too young to understand. Everything.
35:03It's complicated.
35:05No, it's not.
35:06It's wicked.
35:07And it's cold-hearted.
35:08It's cruel.
35:10It's entirely in keeping with the ruthlessness I myself have experienced in this family.
35:17If you're not first in mind.
35:20If you're an individual character with individual needs and, God forbid, an irregular temperament.
35:27If you don't fit the perfect mould and silent, dutiful supplication,
35:34then you'll be spat out or you'll be hidden away or, worse, declared dead.
35:41Darwin had nothing on you lot.
35:44Shame on all of you.
35:46Margaret.
35:46No.
35:48Margaret!
35:49Margaret!
35:49Margaret's on the sides.
36:06Margaret!
36:09Margaret.
36:11Margaret.
36:12Margaret.
36:14If I try to explain, will you at least listen?
36:31The fact is, the moment that man, your perfidious uncle,
36:38abdicated the throne, it really did change everything overnight.
36:45I went from being the wife of the Duke of York,
36:48leading a relatively normal life, to being Queen,
36:54and wife of a King Emperor.
36:58At the same time, my family, the Bowes-Lyons,
37:02went from being minor Scottish aristocrats
37:06to having a direct bloodline to the crown,
37:11resulting in the children of my brother.
37:15Catherine and Nerissa.
37:18And their first cousins.
37:20Edonia.
37:22Etheldrida.
37:24And Rosemary.
37:26Yes.
37:29Paying a terrible price.
37:34Why?
37:36Because...
37:38their illness, their imbecility...
37:41Don't use those words.
37:43...their professionally diagnosed idiocy and imbecility
37:47would make people question the integrity of the bloodline.
37:52What?
37:55Can you imagine the headlines if it were to get out?
37:58What people would say?
38:00The hereditary principle already hangs by such a precarious threat.
38:06Throw in mental illness.
38:09And it's over.
38:11The idea that one family alone has the automatic birthright to the crown
38:18is already so hard to justify.
38:22The gene pool of that family had better have 100% purity.
38:32There have been enough examples on the Windsor side alone to worry people.
38:38King George III.
38:40Prince John.
38:41Your uncle.
38:43If you add the Bose Lion illnesses to that,
38:48the danger is it becomes untenable.
39:09It's all a family disease, isn't it?
39:13When they tell you you can't marry.
39:17When they strip away your official role.
39:20When they side with your husband.
39:23As your marriage falls apart.
39:26And now this.
39:29This final insult.
39:35That every diminishment.
39:38Every rotten misfortune.
39:44Is written.
39:48Written in my blood.
39:52So.
39:57Without tiptoeing to protect me.
40:00Or dressing things up.
40:02Tell me the truth.
40:05As well as being born second.
40:09Am I destined to be mad too?
40:14No ma'am.
40:18When I heard you'd made the appointment to come today.
40:23I did a little research.
40:26Now the genetic fault.
40:28Responsible for your cousin's condition.
40:30Seems to have descended from their common maternal grandfather.
40:34Charles Trefusis 21st Baron Clinton.
40:39This suggests that the recessive gene.
40:41Responsible for their condition.
40:43Lies with the Clinton family.
40:46So how did it get to the Bose Lion family?
40:49Through your aunt Vanella.
40:52Born Clinton.
40:54Who married John Bose Lion.
40:57Uncle Jock.
40:57What your cousins suffer from.
40:59Is a severe developmental disorder.
41:02Whatever issues you may or may not be facing.
41:05That's not the same thing at all.
41:07It hasn't somehow passed.
41:09To my mother.
41:11Queen Elizabeth.
41:12No.
41:13Then.
41:15If they didn't threaten the integrity of the royal family.
41:18The girls need never have been hidden away.
41:23And what my family did was unforgivable.
41:45Anyway, she prescribed medication, psychotherapy and increased exercise.
41:55They'll be suggesting giving up alcohol soon.
41:58Giving up alcohol?
42:00You could always just convert and come over to Rome.
42:05Dazzle.
42:05The only thing that's worked for me.
42:07Lifted my spirits.
42:09Before I became Catholic, I attended church.
42:12After I converted, I found a faith.
42:14The difference is night and day.
42:16Oh, now you're being evangelical.
42:17I feel evangelical.
42:18It's not just the beauty.
42:19It's the rigor of the Catholic Church.
42:21It demands complete submission, which strong, willful characters like mine,
42:27and I would suggest yours, ma'am, need.
42:30Hmm.
42:32One cannot fully receive God until one has submitted to something larger.
42:36And the moment I did...
42:38Don't tell me.
42:39The lights went on.
42:40You found happiness.
42:42More than happiness.
42:46Ecstasy.
42:47And the gloom we talked about so many times, the emptiness, has gone.
42:59How nice.
43:01So come over.
43:05I would.
43:06But, in case you hadn't noticed, Dazzle, I've already submitted to something larger.
43:12The Royal Family of the United Kingdom.
43:14If I became Catholic, it would be a national scandal.
43:19There would be talk of betrayal.
43:21Second Reformation.
43:23No, they'd make me give up my title and kick me out.
43:27Would that be so bad?
43:29To free yourself once and for all.
43:32To find happiness.
43:35Why would I?
43:36The title, my seniority, the proximity to the Crown, is my happiness.
43:42It's who I am.
43:43Ugh.
43:43I don't expect you to understand.
43:45No, I don't understand.
43:46You've just discovered terrible things about your family.
43:50A system that ignored five members of its own to protect itself.
43:53Will that same system protect you?
43:55No.
43:56It doesn't protect anything except the center.
43:59Those away from the center.
44:01But I am in the center.
44:02I am in the very center.
44:05I am the queen's sister.
44:07Daughter to a king emperor.
44:09And I will always be in the center.
44:15Now go, Dazzle.
44:19Back to your ecstatic new family.
44:21And I will struggle on in mine.
44:28And I think it would be better if we don't see one another again.
44:44And should you ever find a moment, perhaps you will pray for me.
44:53I will.
44:55Go.
45:01Your royal highness.
45:07Go.
45:08Go.
45:10Go.
45:11Go.
45:12Go.
45:12Go.
45:12Go.
45:12Go.
45:12Go.
45:14Go.
45:23Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
46:19Oh, oh, oh, oh.
46:23Oh, oh, oh, oh.
46:53Oh, oh, oh, oh.
47:30Oh, oh, oh, oh.
47:57Oh, oh, oh, oh.
48:25Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
48:58Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
49:31Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
49:36Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
49:53Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
49:53Oh, oh, oh, oh.
50:01You
