04:18as well. When you have a sister who is supreme governor of the Church of England and defender
04:26of the faith, it's sometimes a little difficult to separate the two. What is the next record?
05:01ORCHESTRA PLAYS
05:23That's enough. I said that's enough.
05:29ORCHESTRA PLAYS
05:44That was an excerpt from Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake,
05:47performed by the London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Andre Previn.
05:52And the significance of that?
05:57I've always had a special love for the ballet.
06:01There are some things one cannot express in words, and dance is a language of its own.
06:08And, of course, I used to enjoy dancing myself. Never ballet, though.
06:12Any favorite dance partners over the years?
06:14I certainly won't be disclosing that.
06:18In any case, such exertions are best left to the young.
06:23One always has one's memories.
06:25Tell us about your next choice.
06:31STARDUST
06:31By Hoagie Carmichael
06:34You play the piano yourself, of course.
06:36Yes, I had lessons from a young age.
06:40My sister had lessons in constitutional history, and I had piano.
06:48Is music your first love?
06:53One has many first loves.
06:58When one reaches a certain age, one cannot help embarking on an audit of the heart, a review.
07:05One considers all those loves, those dreams and youthful passions, in the context of a whole life.
07:15And it's interesting to note what endures.
07:18Some that remain and become lasting loves, and some that fade and one realises were probably never true loves at
07:27all.
07:28Thankfully, music has been a constant in my life, and I expect it shall remain so.
07:35Does this final record have any special meaning for you?
07:39It does have special meaning, yes.
07:42And that is?
07:43Yes. Let's leave it at that.
07:47This is STARDUST by Hoagie Carmichael.
08:01Sometimes I wonder why I spend the lonely night dreaming of a song and a melody haunts my reverie.
08:19And I am once again with you, though I dream in vain.
08:29In my heart it will remain my stardust melody, the memory of love's refrain.
08:41It will remain my stardust melody, the memory of a song and a melody haunts my reverie.
08:49Oh, I dream in vain in my heart
09:13It will remain
09:15My stardust melody
09:19The memory of love's refrain
09:38Dear Margaret, it is possible this letter will come as a nasty intrusion rather than a pleasant surprise.
09:46I'm planning a rare visit to London from the Isle de France and found myself wondering if you had any
09:52plans to attend the reception next week at the Caledonian Club.
09:55Oh, for the crew who served on HMS Vanguard.
10:00Oh, Peter Townsend.
10:03Yes.
10:04When was the last time you heard from him?
10:07Oh, it must be 35 years ago.
10:12Isn't HMS Vanguard where you and Peter fell in love?
10:15Well, I'm not sure it was love at the beginning.
10:45I'm hoping you would come to your senses.
10:48A fat chance.
10:50Meanwhile, I was losing my senses on early morning rides with Papa's dashing Aquarius.
10:57Yes.
10:58His dashing married Aquarius.
11:01Peter was such a good horseman.
11:07I dare say.
11:11So, what do you imagine he wants?
11:16Must be in his late 70s now.
11:19Long married.
11:20Yes.
11:21Happily married, one hears.
11:36Will you go?
11:38I think I might.
11:42Why, what's it to you?
11:55I think I might.
12:22His Royal Highness, Prince Andrew.
12:24Mummy.
12:25Darling.
12:31Thank you for agreeing to this.
12:33I asked him to put out some tea.
12:36Might want something a little stronger than that.
12:40I've come to talk about my marriage.
12:44The thing is, I actually had some sympathy for her regarding Wyatt.
12:49I was a bit rough around the edges.
12:52American, of course.
12:53But I've been away so much on duty with the Navy.
12:56It's not surprising Sarah felt a bit neglected.
12:58In all things considered, Steve was actually a pretty decent bloke.
13:02Who was carrying on with your wife?
13:04Not anymore, Mummy.
13:05He's out.
13:08He's gone.
13:10Good.
13:11But there's another one now.
13:13A financial advisor, John Bryan.
13:17Oh, for heaven's sake.
13:19With more photographs to come.
13:22Of what?
13:24She don't want to know.
13:26In Saint-Tropez.
13:28Hey, doing something unmentionable.
13:30You're right.
13:31I don't want to know.
13:32Sucking Sarah's toes, Mummy.
13:35What?
13:36I know.
13:38People tell me I put my foot in it from time to time.
13:40At least I didn't put it in someone's mouth.
13:43Can you imagine?
13:44An actual foot.
13:46Even if he was that hungry, he could have just ordered a sandwich.
13:49Or some soul.
14:01It's just the sheer humiliation of it all.
14:06Which is why this time, I'm left with no option but to mention the D word.
14:15Diplomacy?
14:16Détente?
14:17Is it asking too much to say duty?
14:21Divorce, Mummy.
14:23Oh, darling.
14:25She's had enough.
14:28And I don't blame her.
14:31I blame us.
14:33What?
14:33We all knew what we were getting into when we brought Sarah into the family.
14:37Everyone was so pro.
14:40You more than anyone.
14:41Yes.
14:43She was a breath of fresh air.
14:46Modern, relatable, buckets of fun.
14:49That laugh.
14:50So infectious.
14:52Yes.
14:54But that's what we do in this family.
14:57Destroy anyone that's different.
14:59Not at the beginning, of course.
15:01First we tell ourselves how good they'll be for the system.
15:04They'll be our salvation, our secret weapon.
15:07Make us look more modern, more normal, more human.
15:14And we learn the same painful lessons yet again.
15:19That no one with any character, originality, spark, wit and flair, has a place in the system.
15:30Dear Peter, it was a great pleasure to hear from you again, and I look forward to seeing you on
15:36the 7th.
15:38I would say keep your eyes open for a diminutive 60-year-old prune.
15:43But mercifully, time hasn't touched me at all, and I'm entirely unchanged since our last meeting in 1955.
16:12I would say keep your eyes open for you again.
16:20I'd like to see you again.
16:22Roger Carter.
16:27Harold Armstrong Scott.
16:30I'd like to see you again.
16:32Martin.
16:34And the former equerry to his majesty of king.
16:41Come on, honey.
16:44Peter.
16:47Having danced a little too vigorously with the princesses, join me with the festivities.
16:55I, and I expect the rest of you, never forget the beauty of the Drakensburg Mountains,
17:03Victorian falls, endless deserted beaches,
17:08as well as the poor to visit us.
17:13I, and I, and I, and I, and I, and I.
17:49Oh, Margot, he's certainly put some colour in your cheeks.
17:55Does he have a name?
17:57Tim.
17:59Does he make you happy?
18:03Are you in love?
18:05I think I am.
18:07Does everyone disapprove?
18:09Almost suddenly.
18:12Then take it.
18:14Fight for him.
18:16Ah, this song.
18:18And that's my cue to leave.
18:20Are you going so soon?
18:22Yes.
18:23Goodbye, darling.
18:24So, Joanne, hope.
18:27This song used to be your cue to stay.
18:30I know, but I...
18:32I'm afraid I must insist.
18:41Ooh, what's next?
18:46We'll see you later.
18:48Bye.
18:48Bye.
18:51Bye.
18:54Bye.
18:56Bye.
18:58Bye.
20:29The letters.
20:32Oh.
20:33Not as a rejection.
20:36I kept them all.
20:39Reading them, it took me back to that time.
20:41And I thought, they're so precious.
20:45I'm not getting any younger, and if anything should happen, I'd hate to see them fall into the wrong hands.
20:51So I...
20:54Well, I thought better with you.
20:58Well, that's very thoughtful of you.
21:01As it happens, I kept all your letters, too.
21:05Every one of them.
21:11Good night, Peter.
21:13Good night, you all.
21:14Well, I'm...
21:34Princess Royal, Your Majesty.
21:37Hey, darling.
21:38Well, hey.
21:44Oh.
21:46My book.
21:48Almost finished.
21:50So many other riveting things to read, too.
21:54Don't.
22:00I'm here to talk about Tim.
22:02Tim?
22:05Commander Lawrence.
22:07Oh.
22:09Are you two still?
22:10We are.
22:12And I'm here to say we intend for it to be permanent.
22:18As in, till death do us part.
22:21What?
22:23You hardly know one another.
22:26Almost three years, Mummy.
22:29And the ink is barely dry on your divorce from Mark.
22:33And in the climate, we find ourselves.
22:36With so much scrutiny on the family.
22:41Are you sure it wouldn't be wise to...
22:43Wait?
22:46Wait?
22:47Just a little.
22:49Darling.
22:50I'm glad you found happiness.
22:52I know how difficult it was in the end with Mark.
22:54But of all the families you could have been born into,
22:57fate has endowed you with this one.
22:59With everything that goes with it.
23:01Including the fact that your mother is Supreme Governor
23:03of the Church of England.
23:04And remarriage, when the first husband is still alive,
23:08as you well know, is not only frowned upon,
23:10it is forbidden.
23:11I, of all people, hardly need reminding
23:14of the requirements of being in this family.
23:18I have dedicated myself to my role.
23:20Bent myself into shape.
23:22Placed duty above all else.
23:23Including more often than not, my own happiness.
23:27Five engagements a day.
23:29Three hundred days a year for the past 24 years.
23:32Well,
23:34you cannot have all of me.
23:36And I will not give all of me.
23:40And I will marry Tim.
23:56In you go.
23:57In you go.
23:58Good girl.
24:00How was that?
24:01Fine.
24:05Let's just go.
24:07Wait.
24:09Wait.
24:09Here.
24:11Here.
24:19Here.
24:40Sometimes I wonder
24:43Why I spend
24:46A lonely night
24:48Dreaming of a song
24:52The melody
24:54Haunts my reverie
24:58And I am once again
25:01With you
25:02Though I dream in vain
25:07In my heart
25:10It will remain
25:12My stardust melody
25:18Your Royal Highness
25:19As requested, I will be accompanying you
25:22On a short ride to Gregowan Lodge tomorrow
25:24Weather permitting
25:26Group Captain Peter Townshend
25:33Your Royal Highness
25:34I've been meaning to thank you
25:36For your kindness in Balmoral
25:38You may have thought
25:40Your kind act went unnoticed
25:42Camouflaged as you were
25:43In your green tartan skirt
25:45And tweed jacket
25:47It did not
25:51My darling Margaret
25:53It was reckless of you
25:55To visit me in my office today
25:56My stardust melody
25:59The memory of love's refrain
26:05Reckless
26:06And magnificent
26:10I do love you so
26:26Darling Margaret
26:28It seems the world has intruded
26:30Our private Eden
26:32And wants to forbid
26:33Our love
26:37They're banishing me
26:39Sending me away
26:41Like a criminal
26:44I hate to think of you suffering
26:46A creature made for happiness
26:50But hold to our pact
26:52Stay true to one another
26:54In spite of everything
27:00Margaret
27:01I write to you with a heavy heart
27:04I have just returned to Brussels
27:06From a year abroad around the world
27:08A young woman named Mary Luce
27:11Accompanied me on this trip
27:13As my secretary and photographer
27:16Her companionship
27:17Has been one of the few joys in my life
27:20I have decided to ask her to marry me
27:24I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:00I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:01I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:01I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:01I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:02I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:03I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:04I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:04I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:04I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:05I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:05I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:06I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:06I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:06I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:08I know you will feel betrayed by this decision
28:20Prince Harming, they're calling me now
28:23amid endless other calumnies and lies
28:27I know you've always tried to see both sides of the marriage
28:30but will you now finally agree
28:32that official separation is the only sensible course?
28:36Charles
28:39If it were just incompatibility or infidelity
28:43that would be one thing
28:45but the sheer vindictiveness of that Morton book
28:50and then the temerity to insist that she had nothing to do with it
28:54I've done as you asked, Mummy
28:58I've tried to make it work for 11 years
29:03but there comes a point
29:04I have been no stranger this year to my children's marital difficulties
29:09but while Anne's and Andrew's problems are deeply distressing
29:13yours are in a category of their own
29:14because you as future king are in a category of your own
29:19at my coronation I took an oath that you will one day take at yours
29:24to maintain the laws of God
29:27and God's law is that marriage is for life
29:31and while it is expected for the monarch to be married and produce an heir
29:35being happily married is a preference rather than a requirement
29:41you also took a solemn promise to maintain and protect the crown
29:46Diana won't rest until she's blown the whole thing up
29:49is that what you want?
29:57it's funny, isn't it?
29:58I...
29:58for years I've called for a more modern monarchy
30:01that reflects the world outside
30:05but look at the rates of family breakdown out there
30:07and then look at us
30:09Margaret divorced
30:10Anne divorced
30:12right
30:12Andrew humiliated and heading for divorce
30:16me trapped and dreaming of divorce
30:18and you talk about moral examples
30:21if we were an ordinary family
30:24and social services came to visit
30:26they'd have thrown us into care
30:28and you into jail
30:28that's enough
30:31we've got our modern monarchy all right
30:35just not in the way we hoped
30:44it begins to look like parental failure
30:47the gravest kind
30:51and yet the Duke of Edinburgh and I
30:52could not have been more clear with the children
30:54about how important we consider marriage to be
31:01I have every sympathy
31:05my own daughter is divorced
31:08my son is separated
31:11all we can do
31:13is ask for God's guidance
31:16how did it come to this
31:21our generation was brought up to believe
31:23that marriage was an ideal
31:25and divorce was a problem
31:28this generation
31:32yes
31:34but the prince and princess
31:37are not yet separated
31:38there is still hope of reconciliation
31:41and we all pray for it
31:48we do
31:53daily
31:57we do
32:00we do
32:01we do
32:03we do
32:17we do
32:19we do
32:29The force is coming in of a fire at Windsor Castle, with flames shooting from the turrets
32:34and smoke pouring out of the town.
32:37The Majesty is being kept informed of the operation, and it's understood she's on her
32:43way to the scene.
33:04It went up like a tinderbox, those were the words of one observer about this blaze, which
33:09despite the efforts of the fire service, still shows no signs of being brought under control.
33:15The entire North Terrace is ravaged by flames, fire crews are working determinedly to stop
33:20them spreading and destroying some of Britain's most priceless treasures.
33:25It's now about six hours since this fire started, and much of the top left-hand side
33:30of Windsor Castle is still on fire, still burning.
33:34The destruction inside, I'm told, is absolutely enormous.
33:37Ceilings have come down, smoke damage, fire damage, water damage.
33:41Well, I was talking to one of the Queen's aides, and I asked him what she felt about what had
33:47happened and what her mood about it was, and he said that she's like any mother watching
33:51her own home burn down.
33:53She's obviously absolutely devastated.
33:55People are just absolutely stunned by what's happening around them.
34:15being a post on the leaves of the things that she was, I always wanted to be drinking, because
34:16How many of us want to travel to see?
34:16Yeah, what's happening?
34:18Have a great day.
34:18I'm going to have the ice cream.
34:18You left a nice ice cream.
34:19What's happening?
34:20I wonder if we don't go back in the ice cream.
34:20I wonder if the ice cream is dead.
34:22It is as a nice ice cream.
34:24You're going to have an ice cream, and I guess you'll have another ice cream,
35:02The Rembrandt?
35:04Saved.
35:06The Reuben?
35:08Thank God, saved.
35:10And the Leonardo.
35:12But tragically, more than a hundred rooms, including nine state rooms, destroyed.
35:21What about the Crimson Trojan Room?
35:25Bear I ask?
35:27I'm surprised you remember it.
35:30Of course I remember it.
35:34Everyone had gone up to London for some ceremony or other.
35:38It's the Monday service at St. Thomas.
35:41Leaving us alone.
35:45We spent a whole afternoon in the Crimson Room, locked in conversation.
35:51Yes.
35:53Whatever we'll be talking about.
35:56Everything and nothing, I suppose.
35:59Not nothing.
36:01As I remember, we were excitedly making plans for our future.
36:07With such certainty and conviction.
36:13Like those plans, I'm afraid the Crimson Room did not survive.
36:20I'm sad.
36:22Yes.
36:26I'm curious.
36:28What made you write to me after all that time?
36:34Now life goes on forever.
36:40Recently, I had that made clear to me by my doctor.
36:48Peter, I'm so sorry.
36:52Around the same time, I heard a radio interview with you.
36:55And I suppose I wanted to know if our love in the context of a whole life had been a
37:06fleeting one or a lasting one.
37:39Faith, intense questions.
37:40I'm imagining over how the restoration bill will be met.
37:43Some Labour MPs say the Queen, not taxpayers, should pay for all repair work.
37:49The monarchy can't have it always a one-way system under which we, the taxpayers, pick up the bills.
37:57But they refuse to be taxpayers themselves.
37:59Neither the building nor its contents were insured.
38:02Your time, that time?
38:03The appeal may be launched.
38:05Offers have helped to rebuild...
38:05The very worst of times.
38:07The world's most famous buildings have already been known.
38:09Any idea how it started?
38:10The spokesman for the Royal Parkship...
38:12The great metaphor.
38:14I mean, fire.
38:17The spotlight blew a fuse or something.
38:21In the private chapel.
38:23All very innocent.
38:33One can imagine multiple suspects, each with their own perfectly plausible motive to burn the place down.
38:40Who?
38:42My neighbour, for one.
38:44Diana.
38:45Frustrated, after years of neglect, she decides to take the matter into her own hands.
38:52Though arson probably isn't violent enough for her, she'd prefer an atomic bomb.
38:58Hasn't she detonated that already?
39:00Andrew, the Duke of York.
39:03Furious at his own mother for having led him to believe his whole life that he was irresistible and invulnerable,
39:11only to discover his principal role is to be humiliated.
39:17Me?
39:21You?
39:24You?
39:24You don't think I have reason to burn down my sister's home?
39:30Why would you do that?
39:34Because of what she denied me?
39:40Peter Townsend.
39:43What?
39:46Without sun and water.
39:51Crops fail.
39:53Lilibet.
39:55Let me ask, how many times has Philip done something?
40:02Intervene when you couldn't.
40:05Be strong when you couldn't be.
40:07Be angry when you couldn't be.
40:09Be decisive when you couldn't be.
40:11How many times have you said a silent prayer of gratitude for him and thought to yourself,
40:15if I didn't have him, I'd never be able to do it.
40:18How often?
40:21Peter was my son.
40:26My water.
40:29And you denied me him.
40:30I denied you as queen, not as your sister.
40:36The conditions are irrelevant.
40:38The prohibition is what counts a prohibition.
40:41Incidentally, you are not now extending to Anne.
40:43That is different.
40:44How is it different?
40:47Anne is a royal princess with no prospect of acceding to the throne, as was I.
40:54Commander Lawrence is a palace equerry marrying scandalously above his station.
40:59Peter was a palace equerry hoping to marry scandalously above his.
41:03Anne and Commander Lawrence are in love.
41:05Peter and I were in love.
41:06In both cases, one party is a divorcee.
41:09The situation is identical in every way except for the outcome.
41:14She is being allowed to marry him.
41:20I wasn't.
41:24Her story ends happening.
41:29I did not.
41:31I did not.
41:36And yet, even after 40 years,
41:42you cannot bring yourself to acknowledge what happened to me
41:46and the part you played in it.
41:48I did not.
42:26I did not.
42:28I did not.
42:31I did not.
42:59Thank you, Peggy.
43:01Your Majesty.
43:02Murray.
43:03That's a surprise.
43:04I've been told you're unwell.
43:07It's just a cold.
43:09I heard fever.
43:11In which case the only sensible course is bed rest.
43:14It's a lunch to celebrate me.
43:16I can't pull out.
43:17Yes, you can.
43:18And I don't want to pull out.
43:27I've also taken a look at the speech.
43:30You know the three questions we always ask ourselves.
43:33Does it need saying?
43:34Does it need saying now?
43:36Does it need saying by me?
43:40To describe it in this way, Annus Horribilis.
43:45People will remark on it.
43:47Not just because of the theatrical deviation into Latin.
43:50What's your point?
43:51My point, since we're speaking Latin now, is tempus fugit.
43:59Time passes.
44:00People will move on and forget.
44:01Make a statement like this.
44:03No one will forget.
44:05Quite apart from the fact it's an expression of personal sentiment, the kind of which we do not make.
44:10Mummy.
44:10And it could also be interpreted as an admission of our failings, which will only encourage further attacks.
44:18It has been, by some margin, the worst year of my reign.
44:22Quite possibly my life.
44:24I'm happy for people to know.
44:27Know what?
44:28That their queen is depressed.
44:30That I'm made of flesh and blood.
44:33And that perhaps we have fallen short in our duty as a family.
44:37And owe them an apology.
44:41Apology.
44:44That word shouldn't be in your vocabulary.
44:49Monarchy is the only part of the Constitution with an element of the divine.
44:55When you wear the crown, you are transfigured.
45:00Apologizing, Sal, is not just your dignity, but God's.
45:04Whose will it is that you are who you are.
45:10I'm not sure if there's anything to be gained by that.
45:13Yes, there is.
45:15Her peace of mind.
45:18She's done God's will about as immaculately as any human for the past 40 years.
45:24She's earned the right to say anything she likes.
45:28And it's our job to support her.
45:32Unconditionally.
45:32Since when have you sung that tune?
45:34Since day one he sung that tune.
45:36Day one.
45:44Now if you don't mind, we're due at the guild hall.
46:00of the O'Rourke Henry Company, Royal Salute.
46:14Please be upstanding, while I'm actually pleased.
46:19My Lord Mayor,
46:21the anniversary of any occasion
46:24is a time to reflect.
46:28But in light of the events of the last 12 months,
46:33perhaps I have more to reflect on than most.
46:391992 is not a year on which I shall look back
46:43with undiluted pleasure.
46:47It has turned out to be an annus horribilis.
46:54No institution is beyond reproach,
46:58and no member of it either.
47:02The high standards we in the monarchy are held to by the public
47:07must be the same benchmark to which we hold ourselves personally.
47:14If we can't admit the errors of our past,
47:18what hope for reconciliation can there be?
47:29Today, I'd like to pay tribute, if I may, to my family.
47:37Throughout the four decades, I have been on the throne.
47:40They have quite literally been my sun and water.
47:49For all the sacrifices they have made.
47:53Indeed, to all of you here,
47:56whose prayers and well wishes
47:59have been a source of strength to me
48:02this last 40 years.
48:06I say thank you.
48:09Please be outstanding
48:11for a close to the world of this.
48:14for a close to the world of this world.
48:15Day 1 to Ben

48:40Annus horribilis 80
48:41Well, it has been.
48:42all of you and I can see much of that has been my fault for the record no one
48:49blames you on the contrary everyone blames me all of the time and you're
48:54right to this system of which the sovereign is the principal beneficiary
49:00is horribly hard on the rest of you you too that's the job let's face it
49:08thank you come and have lunch here tomorrow we could get a little bit tipsy make light of it all

51:45Of paradise where roses grew

52:03The memory of love's refrain
52:41The memory of love's refrain
53:14The memory of love's refrain

53:45The memory of love's refrain
