00:19Friends, friends, we meet here today, not as Ghanaians,
00:30Guineans, Moroccans, Aegeans, Senegalese, or Malians, but as Africans, tired of being disrespected
00:42and abused by the corrupt and imperial powers of the past, the time has come to forge new
00:51alliances, those who understand the strategic importance of Africa and are willing to treat
00:59us as equals, not as subordinates, and not as slaves.
01:07This is our time.
01:11We must choose our own destiny, a socialist Africa for Africans.
01:44We've definitely seen better days, ma'am.
01:46We'll send in the foresters to the end of the season and fill it back.
01:49Yes.
01:50The old oak, she's still hanging on, just about.
01:53Oh, but she looks so old, ancient.
01:56Well, she will have to be felled in New Cross.
01:58What is she?
01:59Looks like it's set in for the day.
02:00Do you remember my grandson Daniel, ma'am?
02:03Yes, of course.
02:05Oh, is that his christening?
02:06That's right.
02:08We ought to head back, ma'am.
02:10Get rid of his brain.
02:11Right.
02:12Or go get a job lead.
02:14Change his package.
02:15What again?
02:18Can I help, ma'am?
02:19Oh.
02:24Oh.
02:25Oh.
02:26Oh.
02:27Oh.
02:27Oh.
02:28Oh.
02:29Oh.
02:29Oh.
02:31Oh.
02:36Oh.
02:49At the Elysee Palace the ceremonial guard awaited Mr Kennedy's arrival.
02:53It has pleased the French that he came to Paris before going to Vienna to meet Mr Khrushchev.
02:58When is it you think, if one's committed to a life of honesty, that one must start calling oneself middle
03:05-aged?
03:06Oh, stop it. You're still a young girl.
03:10I caught sight of myself in a mirror today.
03:12I looked like an old woman.
03:14You haven't even finished having children yet.
03:18True.
03:19So, finish your family.
03:21Let the first one go to school.
03:23And then let's talk about being middle-aged.
03:25Well, that won't be middle-aged. That'll be ancient.
03:30Oh, no, no.
03:32Not again.
03:37Mummy, be careful.
03:38No, stop it. It's rented.
03:44No.
03:46Oh, no, yes, you've got it.
03:48Well done.
03:49This macaroni and cheese is heavenly.
03:54So, weekend's been heavenly.
03:57Sadly, I have to leave in the morning.
03:59Where's the floor?
04:02They're coming to dinner.
04:03In Kennedy's?
04:04After Vienna with Khrushchev, then Paris, they're coming to London.
04:08So, we're having an informal dinner at Buckingham Palace.
04:12She's so young.
04:13I always thought she was the same age as you.
04:15She is.
04:19Oh, no.
04:25Oh, no, no, look.
04:26There she is.
04:26She was talking about the charm and elegance of Mr. Kennedy's wife, Jackie.
04:30Jackie, in fact, often stole the picture.
04:34It's beautiful.
04:35It's beautiful.
04:36It's beautiful.
04:36It's charming.
04:38It's beautiful.
04:39It's beautiful.
04:39It's beautiful.
04:40It's beautiful.
04:40She is pretty, isn't she?
04:42Yes.
04:45Yes.
13:36No curtsy.
13:37Mrs. Kennedy.
13:39Your Grace.
13:41Your Royal Highness.
13:43Mrs. Kennedy.
13:45Good evening, Your Royal Majesty.
13:48Oh, dear.
13:50Oh, for goodness sake.
13:51Mr. President.
13:54Mr. President.
13:56Your Grace.
13:57Did they not get the protocol sheet?
13:59Yes. We obviously didn't read it.
14:02Yes, well.
14:03Shall we?
14:06Uh, Jackie.
14:08Where do you think she's going?
14:10Lord knows.
14:14Mrs. Kennedy.
14:16I feel like that went wrong in about 10,000 different ways.
14:20I've seen worse.
14:22Though I'm not sure when.
14:25This drink.
14:27Please.
14:28Sorry, sir.
14:30Bloody shabbles.
14:31Oh, no.
14:34Oh, no.
14:44My heart goes out to him.
14:47Where does the behind closed doors over here?
14:49Khrushchev humiliate.
14:51Ran, ran through.
14:53Treated him like a little boy.
14:54No wonder the Cold War.
14:56It's two nations.
14:57Very good.
14:58It's a man.
15:00It's a man.
15:01Two man.
15:02Two man.
15:02Two man.
15:03Two man.
15:07It's a true animal.
15:09We won't vote.
15:10One woman.
15:29Ah, so, how was she?
15:32Oh, terrific. She's divine.
15:36Is she?
15:37I'm frightfully clever.
15:39Yes.
15:41What are you doing?
15:42She wants a tour of the place.
15:44Does she? Well, then I'll do it.
15:46No, no, it's all right. She asked me.
15:47No, it's my house, so I'll do it.
15:56Mrs. Carey, you're mine.
15:59You okay there?
16:01I hope my wife isn't causing too much trouble.
16:06Do you know you're the luckiest man on earth?
16:12Yes.
16:17Although, people keep telling me the same thing.
16:25Where are they going?
16:27I have absolutely no idea.
16:32Now, this is the throne room.
16:34In the early years of Queen Victoria's reign,
16:37various balls and concerts were held here.
16:40Now, it's principally used for receptions,
16:43vestiges, and taking over all wedding photographs.
16:52Shall we?
16:53Now, this is the picture gallery.
16:56This is my great-great-great-great-grandfather,
17:00George III,
17:01and he bought Buckingham House in 1761 for his wife,
17:05Queen Charlotte.
17:07Who's this?
17:09Ah, that's one of the pits.
17:11The younger.
17:13Known for something that's always rather endeared me to him.
17:17Crippling shyness.
17:19Apparently, he could barely look people in the eye.
17:23And yet, he became our prime minister.
17:26I quite understand.
17:29I'm also a shy person by nature.
17:39This leads to our private apartments.
17:44It's a shortcut.
17:50This is about as private as it gets in this place.
17:54It's where one feels most comfortable.
17:56Oh, I quite understand.
17:59You have to have somewhere to escape to.
18:03I've often wondered how someone who hates attention as much as I do
18:07ended up in a goldfish bowl like the White House.
18:12But I realize there's actually a perverse logic to a cripplingly shy person ending up in this position.
18:18Well, you'll have to explain that one to me.
18:20Well, a shy person will seek out someone strong to protect them.
18:25Yes, I'm with you so far.
18:28And his strong character is often one who enjoys public life, thrives on it.
18:34And then before you know it, the very person you have turned to in order to protect you is the
18:40very reason you are exposed.
18:44Jack's idea of heaven is a crowd.
18:47Campaigning, fundraising, speech making.
18:50That's when he comes alive.
18:52He'd far sooner speak to 10,000 people under the glare of spotlights than be alone with me.
19:07And what's your idea of heaven?
19:11I like my own company.
19:13And to be alone in the countryside.
19:16And where do you go?
19:18A farm.
19:19Glenora, about an hour from Washington.
19:21Maryland.
19:23Virginia.
19:24Oh, yes.
19:28Ah.
19:31Hello, Stuart.
19:32Yes, ma'am.
19:33They're eating.
19:34Yes, ma'am.
19:35Oh, goodness.
19:38Hello, puppy.
19:40What's your name?
19:41Well, that's sugar.
19:43And these are our puppies.
19:45Come here.
19:46Come here.
19:47Whiskey and sherry.
19:49Hello.
19:50Hello.
19:51Oh, you're very clever to be cautious.
19:54Oh, it's really one of the great paradoxes of being in a position where I have to talk to a
20:00great many people.
20:01But deep down, I'm happiest with animals.
20:04That makes two of us.
20:08I always think my sister would have made, if not the better, the more natural first lady.
20:14Oh, mine too.
20:16A born queen.
20:18And the greatest of British queens, in her own mind, anyway.
20:30You know, I liked her very much.
20:32And I've been all set to loathe her.
20:34But in the end, I was utterly charmed.
20:38It's a timely reminder.
20:39Of what?
20:40Oh.
20:41That people are so rarely what they seem.
20:43Well, then I don't know what Patrick was talking about.
20:45Patrick?
20:46Plunkett.
20:46I saw him last night at Tartouf.
20:48No, is that a restaurant?
20:49It's a play, dear.
20:51A very famous French play.
20:53Oh, I knew that.
20:54Did you?
20:54Yes, it's a classic tragedy.
20:56Farce.
20:57By Poisson.
20:58Moliere.
20:59Oh.
20:59Pierre Sereau was a painter.
21:04When was the last time you even went to the theatre?
21:06Or gallery?
21:08Even read a book?
21:10Oh, you're a savage.
21:11Oh, thank you.
21:13What about Patrick?
21:15Well, Patrick had dinner at the Radsevilles last week.
21:19Well, your new best friend, Mrs. Kennedy, was also a guest.
21:23He called me this morning to tell me some of the things you'd overheard her say at dinner.
21:27Oh, what did she say?
21:29I'd have to ask Patrick.
21:32I said, did seem a little unkind.
21:35You know how reported speech has twisted in the retailing.
21:39I'm quite sure it was nothing.
21:42Don't worry.
21:50General Sallis!
21:53Preach!
21:55Up!
21:58Shoulder!
21:59Up!
22:03Order!
22:04Up!
22:12Patrick.
22:13Your Majesty.
22:15It's so kind of you to come.
22:20It's really not far.
22:21Are you still just round the corner at Wellington Barracks?
22:23I am.
22:24Are you still travelling up and down the country,
22:26recruiting for all the regiments from all the top schools?
22:29That's me.
22:33I gather
22:35you saw the First Lady
22:38at dinner recently.
22:39Who?
22:41Mrs. Kennedy.
22:43Margaret mentioned it.
22:44Did she?
22:45Yes.
22:48So how was that?
22:51Pleasant enough.
22:53Uneventful.
22:54You know how it is at the Ranservilles.
22:56No, I don't.
22:57Well, the food's always good.
22:59Yes, but I wasn't asking about the food.
23:02What?
23:04I'd like to know what was said.
23:08Patrick, we grew up together,
23:10and we've always had a very frank and a very open relationship.
23:15Yes, ma'am.
23:15Yes.
23:16So, let's not break the habit of a lifetime.
23:22All right.
23:26What I ever heard the First Lady say,
23:30and I should mention,
23:31I was several places along the table,
23:33it's possible that I misheard,
23:37was that she found Buckingham Palace second-rate,
23:42dilapidated, and sad,
23:44like a neglected provincial hotel,
23:48and that one came away with a sense of
23:51a tired institution
23:53without a place in the modern world.
24:00I see.
24:01I see.
24:10And did she have anything to say about me?
24:14Patrick.
24:14I was at the other end of the table.
24:23But the words I think I ever heard were
24:29that in our head of state,
24:31we had
24:32a middle-aged woman
24:34so incurious,
24:38unintelligent,
24:40and unremarkable,
24:44that Britain's new reduced place in the world
24:47was not a surprise,
24:47but an inevitability.
25:05Well...
25:09We must have her again soon.
25:35What did she mean?
25:38I couldn't do it not.
25:38He said that it was
25:39it doesn't eat him.
25:40You, I don't mind,
25:40he's making an Seiten bill.
25:40And they'll be noises tell us
25:52Bad news, I'm afraid.
25:54Worse than bad.
25:55Regarding Nkrumah's Volta Dab project, President Kennedy's pulled out.
26:02Why?
26:03American involvement was conditional upon Ghana having severed all ties with the Russians.
26:07Turns out Nkrumah was in Moscow yesterday.
26:10To receive the order of Lenin, highest military honor, from Khrushchev himself.
26:16And what's the next step?
26:18I wish I knew. Wish I had an ace up my sleeve.
26:22The way President Kennedy had his First Lady in Paris.
26:39Why don't you send me?
26:44Where?
26:46To Ghana.
26:48On what would be seen as a personal trip.
26:50Absolutely not.
26:51That would be out of the question, ma'am.
26:53Why?
26:55A visit from the Crown to Ghana would be seen as a huge compliment.
26:57Too great a compliment.
26:58It would be singling out Ghana as a preferred nation.
27:02In doing so, we risk alienating Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Tengen...
27:05But surely by singling out Ghana, that might be just the thing to keep Nkrumah away from the Russians and
27:09in the Commonwealth.
27:10Perhaps, but as Queen, you cannot be seen to be engaging in the dirty business of politics.
27:14Yes, but as head of the Commonwealth, can I not be permitted just once to defend it?
27:17Your Majesty.
27:20It would be unsafe.
27:22It would be provocative.
27:25It would be, in my view, a profound misjudgment to get on that plane.
27:47The trip is impossible to justify it from any angle.
27:51It is unethical, unconstitutional and indefensible that the Queen should be going at all.
27:57What would you have me do?
27:59Nothing.
28:00I certainly wouldn't have you get into a chess match with a wily operator like Nkrumah.
28:05You're just being cynical.
28:06And you're being naive.
28:09When you last met him, Nkrumah was just Nkrumah.
28:12Now he's the Lion of Africa, playing the Soviets off against the Americans.
28:16And you're a lamb the Lion will have for lunch.
28:20The best thing you can do is stay at home and be what you're supposed to be.
28:24A puppet.
28:25A constitutional monarch.
28:27A puppet.
28:28If you like.
28:29Well, that's the whole point.
28:32I don't like.
28:33I don't like.
28:49Sir.
28:51She's here.
29:03She's here.
29:20She's here.
29:51Shall we?
29:55Stop. Stop.
29:57One moment.
29:59Yes.
30:01Reporters.
30:05Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
30:09Hey, hey, hey.
30:10Hey, ma.
30:12Dana, my.
30:13Eddie, a brassiere.
30:15I'm our quava.
30:19Your Majesty.
30:21Ghana welcomes you.
30:23Hombly.
30:25Yes.
30:27We're very happy to be here.
30:29Of course.
30:32Back, back, back.
30:33Back, back, back, back.
30:37Ready.
30:40Thank you, Your Majesty.
30:47Well, you've given him the photo he wanted.
30:51That'll be on the front page of every African newspaper making every other African leader choke with genocide.
30:56Yes, of course, it always does the trick.
31:08Are Dean here?
31:11Put him through.
31:12I have a secure line to Ghana.
31:14Yes, sir.
31:16But I thought he had agreed to suspend all contact with the Soviets.
31:20Apparently not.
31:21Ready, sir.
31:22Gentlemen, thank you.
31:34Out.
31:36Hello.
31:40Your Majesty.
31:41Prime Minister.
31:43I've just received confirmation that a team of international engineers has arrived in Ghana to begin work on Nkrumah's dam.
31:49Well...
31:51I see that's good news, isn't it?
31:54We encourage the Americans to go back to Nkrumah.
31:56Soviet engineers, ma'am.
31:58It appears Nkrumah's been playing us all off against one another.
32:02What?
32:03Leading us a merry dance.
32:04I'm afraid you've been used, ma'am.
32:07Just as we'd feel.
32:15Elizabeth!
32:17What's happened?
32:20In, sir.
32:21Martin.
32:24I wouldn't if I were you.
32:27Sir?
32:28She's asked to be alone.
32:32She says she's thinking.
32:58In, sir.
33:00Like you.
33:03I was always looking for it.
33:04I'm aisin'いる.
33:05No, I'm waiting for you.
33:08I'm going to be opening the bed.
33:09I'm going to come.
33:10Don't want to come up.
33:11You're waiting.
33:11I'm going to come up.
33:12I don't want to try it.
33:20What's going on?
33:23What are you doing?
33:26Elizabeth?
33:37Yes, this is Colonel Charteris.
33:39We have Martin Charteris on the telephone.
33:41A situation is developing in Ghana.
33:44Hello?
34:05What are you doing?
34:16I think we both understand the significance of this moment.
34:21Yes.
34:24But do we understand the terms?
34:30They appear to be in some kind of negotiation.
34:33What kind of negotiation?
34:34Get her out of there.
34:37Your Majesty.
34:43Oh, Lord.
34:45What's going on?
34:51He's taken her hand.
35:12They're dancing.
35:16Our Queen is dancing, sir.
35:20With an African.
35:21What?
35:23Was this agreed?
35:24Was this agreed?
35:25This was definitely not agreed.
35:27What are they doing?
35:28What are they doing?
35:31Hard to say.
35:32I believe it's the Foxtrot.
35:35The Foxtrot, sir.
35:37Huh?
35:39Huh?
36:22Ladies and gentlemen, the man I am proud to call, the 35th President of the United States,
36:29but even more proud to call my brother, John F. Kennedy.
36:39Thank you, Bobby.
36:46What is it to be an American today?
36:52Prosperous, powerful, privileged?
36:56Certainly.
36:59And yet, it is also troubling.
37:04I look around me and find our people divided as never before.
37:09Indeed, it is at no time since our civil war.
37:12There has been a change, a slippage in our moral and our intellectual strength.
37:20Blight has descended on our regulatory agencies, and a dry rot beginning in Washington is seeping into every corner of
37:29America.
37:29Too many of us have lost our way, our will, and our sense of historic purpose.
37:37It is time for a renewal, a new generation of leadership, healing leadership, but we cannot do it alone.
37:46And so I am asking each of you to be pioneers in this renewal, in this healing, in the reclaiming
37:55of great American values, freedom, tolerance, and equality of opportunity.
38:01Then we can claim our position and responsibilities as leaders of a truly free world.
38:08God bless you all, and God bless the United States of America.
38:34Thank you, Bobby.
38:35Fantastic.
38:36Yeah, make this evening worthwhile.
38:44Ladies, if you'd like to step over here.
38:48Okay.
38:51Help.
38:56When the British royal family visits the former colony, it doesn't normally make news of the U.S.
39:03But when Queen Elizabeth dances with a former son, a white monarch with an African leader, the world pays attention.
39:12And so too did Ghanaian leader, President Nkrumah himself.
39:16Off by the gesture, Nkrumah...
39:19I'm going to Glenora with the kids in the morning.
39:22It's not the weekend yet.
39:23He was fast becoming allies.
39:25That's Wednesday.
39:27It's a weekend enough for me.
39:29Don't be like that.
39:32Don't you take away my dignity and then tell me how to be.
39:36I just wanted to thank you, that's all.
39:39For the second time in recent weeks, you've been instrumental in changing a significant matter of foreign policy.
39:48And an African state that was fast running into the arms of the communists has been turned around and kept
39:54in the West.
39:57Oh, what does that have to do with me?
40:00Dreary queen, thick ankles.
40:04Her majestic dullness.
40:07The incurious crown.
40:10Apparently just some of the things you've said about her at a dinner in London, which then got back to
40:15Queen Elizabeth.
40:16And it seems spurred her on.
40:19Without those insults, she wouldn't have defied a cabinet, risked her reputation, and gone to Ghana against all advice to
40:26bring President Nkrumah back on side.
40:28But she did.
40:31Pulled off some incredible stunt with a dance, and it's all thanks to you.
40:36They're ready for you.
40:39Relax.
40:40It's not like you're running to her in Glenora.
40:43Not Glenora, no.
40:45But I am due back in London on my way back from India and Pakistan.
40:50Then my advice would be, don't go to Buckingham Palace.
40:55Sorry.
40:56The provincial hotel.
40:58It's not so easy.
40:59Her sister set up a lunch last time we were in town.
41:02Oh.
41:03Well, that should be fun.
41:06Catfight.
41:07I look forward to a full report.
41:11Come on, Bobby.
41:35Your Majesty, some more international reactions to the Ghana trip.
41:41Positive or negative?
41:44Overwhelmingly positive, no.
41:49Well, just a quick look, then.
41:56So, the New York Times calls it shrewd strategic maneuvering, an example of impeccable political brinkmanship.
42:06The Australian papers are very impressed with your commitment to the Commonwealth, and the
42:11Illustrated London News call it an outstanding personal success.
42:15Boating doesn't suit you.
42:20The Ghanaian press are calling you a socialist.
42:25Oh.
42:26Goodness.
42:28One more thing.
42:30First Lady, Mrs. Kennedy.
42:35What about her?
42:36Um, her office is written requesting private audience with your majesty prior to lunch on the 28th of March.
42:44Whatever for?
42:46They didn't say.
42:48Where's the lunch?
42:50Parkingham Palace, ma'am.
42:55Well, let's make the audience Windsor Castle.
43:01Sometimes only a fortress will do.
43:05Windsor Castle.
43:26Parkingham Palace, ma'am.
43:28Parkingham Palace, ma'am.
43:29Parkingham Palace, ma'am.
43:32Parkingham Palace, ma'am.
43:35Parkingham Palace, ma'am.
43:36Parkingham Palace, ma'am.
43:36Parkingham Palace, ma'am.
43:36Parkingham Palace, ma'am.
43:43Headway to the Queen's Guard!
43:47Headway to the Queen's Guard!
43:49Head, head, head!
43:59Get off now, Mrs. McKay!
44:01Head, head!
44:03This way, please.
44:12This way, Mrs. Kennedy.
44:26Mrs. Kennedy, this way, please.
44:45Mrs. Kennedy, Your Majesty.
44:48Your Majesty.
44:51Thank you for seeing me.
44:55Mrs. Kennedy.
44:58Do sit down.
45:03Mrs. Kennedy.
45:11Shall we have tea?
45:13Mrs. Kennedy.
45:32I asked to speak to you in private ahead of our lunch on Friday, because I owe you an apology.
45:39Whatever for?
45:40I think we both know the answer to that question.
45:57Had a social occasion.
46:00Shortly after our last visit, I...
46:02I made some comments.
46:04Some foolish comments, which I believe got back to you.
46:09There really is no need for this.
46:13Reports that you'd said certain things did get back to me.
46:19And I'll confess to being momentarily surprised, since they in no way reflected what I understood to be the spirit
46:26of our meeting.
46:27But in this job, I've learned, as I'm sure you have to, not to take things too seriously.
46:33People say things for all sorts of reasons, which get misquoted or misunderstood.
46:38And before you know it, those words have turned into something quite different.
46:42And everyone's upset or up in arms.
46:46I'm quite sure that you meant no harm nor disrespect.
46:49After all, why would you?
46:52We barely know one another.
46:54Still, it was inexcusable, so I can't offer an excuse.
46:58But if you'll allow me, I'd like to offer an explanation.
47:05Yes, of course.
47:07Last time we were in London, Jack and I probably seemed, at least from the outside, to be riding on
47:13a high.
47:14Yes, I should say so.
47:16The most celebrated, most famous couple in the world.
47:19Well, the truth is that I was still suffering from postnatal problems after the birth of our son.
47:26And Jack had his own health issues.
47:29To say we were strained would be an understatement.
47:34So, when we got to Paris, I don't mind telling you, I took some pleasure in shining there.
47:41And then, at the Elysee Palace.
47:44I am the man who accompanied Jacqueline Kennedy to Paris.
47:51I enjoyed it.
47:53But Jack didn't appreciate being upstaged behind closed doors.
47:59I can imagine.
48:04There were other factors, too.
48:07Our doctor.
48:09Dr. Jacobson routinely administers us his cocktails before major trips.
48:17Vitamins.
48:21But other substances, too.
48:26To help pep us up or calm us down.
48:36On the occasion of that dinner, he had given me something.
48:39A little booster.
48:44I told him I needed cheering up.
48:47But I guess it loosened my tongue.
48:51And then I heard some of these terrible things cut back to you.
48:58I can't tell you how much distress it's caused me.
49:02The idea that I might have upset someone I admire so much.
49:08That's very kind of you to say.
49:10It's true.
49:12The way you do your job, the way you cope with the pressure, the personal sacrifices you've made.
49:21Not to mention your composure and dignity.
49:27As a woman, it's so inspiring.
49:31And what you just did in Ghana, was just extraordinary.
49:41What I should have said was that I didn't do very much in Ghana.
49:46I got on a plane, and I went.
49:50The only reason I went was because I felt utterly useless in comparison to you.
49:56And I was trying to compete.
49:59And if anything, I owe you a huge debt of gratitude.
50:06But I didn't.
50:09I just sat there.
50:12And I let her say her piece.
50:14And savoured your victory?
50:16Yes.
50:18And what do you want from me now?
50:21Ticking off?
50:22Well, don't you think I'm deserving of one?
50:24No.
50:26But she was so broken.
50:28And fragile.
50:30Lost.
50:33You did exactly the right thing.
50:37She insulted you, all of us.
50:40And you're not a saint.
50:41No.
50:42We know that already.
50:46There's ice in those veins when there needs to be.
50:49Yes.
50:52Well, if we cheers to that.
51:06Come on.
51:07Well, move on.
51:08Ah.
51:10Can you get the flag?
51:14Get him.
51:15He's going.
51:15We'll beat you.
51:16Keep him moving now.
51:17Keep going up the hill.
51:31Man.
51:32What is it?
51:33You're needed back to the house.
51:35Right.
51:41What's going on?
51:43I don't know, Lyle.
51:45Somebody help.
51:58There was absolute pandemonium around the scene.
52:01People screamed and lay down on the ground as shots were heard.
52:05Reporters saw President Kennedy lying flat on his face on the seat of his car.
52:10Men and women were screaming.
52:12He saw blood on the President's head.
52:15This is all we have here in Washington at this moment.
52:18And for the moment, I return you to Radio Newsreel in London.
52:21Hello, London.
52:22I just heard from Dallas that the President is still alive, but in critical condition.
52:28He was apparently shot in the head, and the governor of Texas, Governor Connolly, was shot in the chest.
52:35Mrs. Kennedy was weeping, trying to hold up her husband's head when the reporters reached the car as it dashed
52:42toward the hospital.
52:43Vice President Lyndon Johnson was in the car behind the president.
52:48Blood transfusions are being given to President Kennedy.
52:51However, one of the two priests called into the room has administered the last sacrament of the church to President
52:59Kennedy.
53:01Mrs. Kennedy and Mrs. Connolly are stunned, but they are at the bedside of their husbands.
53:16He's dead.
53:18Mrs. Kennedy and Mrs. Connolly are willst breveview of the men's head.
54:00Didn't you say how unhappy she was in the marriage?
54:07Yes.
54:11That's the thing about unhappiness.
54:15All it takes is for something worse to come along.
54:19And you realize it was actually happiness after all.
54:32She's still wearing the same clothes.
54:36Couldn't it have found her something else?
54:39It was covered in our husband's blood.
54:43A patient's loved one has joined the grieving Mrs. Kennedy for a...
54:47No, I think it's deliberate.
54:48Before the body was moved to the rotunda of the Capitol.
54:52The last day in the life of the first Capitol, President of the United States.
54:59Lyndon Johnson, sworn in on Air Force One less than 100 minutes after the official death of President Kennedy.
55:22And I would like everyone in the royal household to observe a full week of court mourning.
55:30And I would like the bell rung at Westminster Abbey.
55:36Ma'am, custom dictates that the bell only be rung...
55:41When a member of the royal family dies, I know.
55:46But I would like it to be rung...
55:48My best, that is all...
55:49...every minute.
55:51For an hour.
55:53I ask for your help...
55:54From 11 o'clock until midday.
55:56...all gods...
56:09...all gods...
56:10In the darkness of the days that lie ahead.
