00:02:17my mother's permission but i realize more than anything in the world i want you to be my wife
00:02:23chemical biological and nuclear weapons have still not been unearthed
00:02:27many people who supported the war are now asking that's a complete disaster
00:02:33including the prime minister's claim that saddam's apparently non-existent weapons
00:02:37could be deployed within 45 minutes
00:02:53good morning gentlemen good morning good morning your majesty the purpose of this meeting is
00:03:00and i should say it's not because we have any reason to be fearful oh get on with it david
00:03:04that we might really step up our planning of operation london bridge that's the code name
00:03:11for your funeral ma'am we know what it is edward is that really necessary i recently got a clean
00:03:18bill
00:03:18of health and in terms of age i'm only 80 yes all right not quite a matter of months simply
00:03:25for
00:03:25reasons of prudence and good order in which case why not start with the duke of edinburgh he's older than
00:03:30me and statistically men tend to die earlier well that's true and that's why we've been working
00:03:36on mine for years operation fourth bridge oh no don't say that why it's so sad oh no no it's
00:03:46i'm
00:03:47finding it all rather stimulating you might too it's surprising what it all stirs up isn't it edward
00:03:54yes so with your permission ma'am can we make a start
00:04:16as a template we've used the funeral of the late king george the sixth
00:04:20we would call on an estimated 6 000 military personnel at the procession a tri-service parade
00:04:28embracing each of the armed services alongside representatives from the 15 other
00:04:34commonwealth realms the gun carriage will be drawn by the sovereign's guard
00:05:08and they will march at the customary rhythm
00:06:54What's going on?
00:06:56The Prime Minister's just coming out, sir.
00:07:12Do you remember when he first came to power?
00:07:14They took to the streets and cheered.
00:07:17Now they want to impeach him for high crimes and misdemeanors.
00:07:21Tony Blair has become Tony Blyer.
00:07:25One's reminded once again that the career of Prime Ministers is nasty, brutish and short.
00:07:31Except I gather he's no intention of stepping down.
00:07:33His ambition is to become the first Labour Prime Minister to win a third successive term.
00:07:38That's the thing.
00:07:40Once people get a taste of life at the top, they never want to leave.
00:07:43Is that right?
00:07:44They just want to keep...
00:07:46on and on.
00:07:48Yes.
00:07:49Anyway, I'm sure this is not why you've come to see me today.
00:07:53No.
00:08:01I've come to make a request I wish I'd made 30 years ago.
00:08:07to ask your blessing
00:08:10to marry Camilla.
00:08:15Can't say this has come out of the blue, Mummy.
00:08:18She and I have been in love now for 30 years.
00:08:23And every day of those 30 years, she has been heroic.
00:08:27You don't think ending her relationship with you once you'd married Diana would have been heroic?
00:08:32She did. Camilla is blameless in that regard.
00:08:36She always wanted to keep her marriage.
00:08:38Then why didn't she?
00:08:39Because her husband left.
00:08:41And why did he do that?
00:08:43Because he'd had enough, as I understand it, of reading about her adultery with you in the newspapers.
00:08:47You and I both know Andrew is no angel. He was serially unfaithful himself.
00:08:52So can we agree there's nothing heroic about any of this?
00:08:55For years and years, Camilla has suffered judgment and calumny and never ever complained.
00:09:01Not once.
00:09:02That is heroic.
00:09:06Instead, she stayed silent and loyal to you and the crown.
00:09:12But not a single thank you in return.
00:09:15A thank you?
00:09:16Yes, thank you.
00:09:17Not just for her discretion, but for loving and
00:09:20making happy the person who's next in line.
00:09:24That surely is in all our interests.
00:09:37What is he doing?
00:09:41Planning his funeral.
00:09:43He wants that as his hearse.
00:09:50I've always said, Mummy, that you couldn't do the job without Papa by your side.
00:09:56That he's your strength and stay.
00:10:01And Camilla is my strength.
00:10:08I couldn't do it without her.
00:10:11I couldn't do it without her.
00:10:12I will reflect on it.
00:10:13Take advice.
00:10:16Take advice.
00:11:11I'll probably be fine.
00:11:33Take advice.
00:11:44Take advice.
00:12:08Take advice.
00:12:12Take advice.
00:12:38Take advice.
00:13:05Take advice.
00:13:08Take advice.
00:13:10Take advice.
00:13:10Take advice.
00:13:28Your Majesty.
00:13:29My Lord Bishops.
00:13:32I asked you all here today because the Prince of Wales has requested my permission to marry Mrs. Parker Bowles.
00:13:43And I think I'd like to grant it.
00:13:51And, of course, as head of the Church of England, that is your right.
00:13:57But it will not be straightforward.
00:14:00Or, one suspects, popular.
00:14:02Why?
00:14:03I was led to believe the General Synod had eased its stance on the marriage of divorcees.
00:14:09It has, but many people in this country still believe that the relationship between the Prince of Wales and Mrs.
00:14:18Parker Bowles
00:14:19was responsible for the breakdown of the Prince of Wales and Mrs. Parker Bowles.
00:14:23The Church, I think, needs to be satisfied that permitting the new marriage would not, in effect, consecrate a past
00:14:33infidelity.
00:14:35For the Church of England to be seen to be blessing it, could risk a split in the Anglican communion.
00:14:43One suggestion could be that, and I would be interested in hearing the Archbishop of Canterbury's view, that the Prince
00:14:51and Mrs. Parker Bowles marry in a civil ceremony and then have a church blessing afterwards.
00:14:57In a registry office?
00:15:00In the eyes of the Church, no marriage service is more legitimate than another.
00:15:05It's more a question of signals.
00:15:07Appearances.
00:15:09The condition of the blessing could be some form of atonement.
00:15:15Quite so.
00:15:16Some acknowledgement of wrongdoing on the couple's part.
00:15:24The service might include a prayer of penitence, in which the couple join with the congregation in asking forgiveness for
00:15:32past wickedness.
00:15:39I've always taken comfort in the knowledge that God retaineth not his anger forever, because he delighteth in mercy.
00:15:49Whatever short-term risk the marriage may present to the integrity of the Church, one has to imagine it would
00:15:56do less damage than if I were to die.
00:15:59Well, it is going to happen one day, and my heir acceded to the throne while living in sin.
00:16:24Good afternoon, sir.
00:16:25Good afternoon, sir.
00:16:27It was an incredible decision.
00:16:30Your old Highnesses, Her Majesty, we'll see you now.
00:16:36Tracks.
00:16:37Come on, hurry.
00:16:38Come on, hurry.
00:16:50Granny.
00:16:52Thank you both for coming.
00:16:54Now, I need some air.
00:16:56Would you be very cross if I suggest we go for a walk?
00:17:11I'd like to discuss your dear papa.
00:17:14What's he done now?
00:17:15Nothing he's done.
00:17:18It's what he wants to do.
00:17:22How would you both feel about him getting married?
00:17:26I knew it.
00:17:28Why can't they just carry on as they are?
00:17:30Because Charles would be king one day.
00:17:32The last time we had an unmarried king on the throne, it did not end well.
00:17:36Yeah, but was he...
00:17:40Obviously, both of us prefer to think of him with mummy.
00:17:43And anything other than that feels...
00:17:46Wrong.
00:17:47So wrong.
00:17:49But I suppose this is the reality.
00:17:53And she does seem to make him happy.
00:17:57Does she?
00:17:59And having him happy and settled is good for us.
00:18:04And ultimately, good for...
00:18:06Good for?
00:18:07Well, as you say, he is going to be king.
00:18:10Isn't he, one day?
00:18:14Yes.
00:18:14Plus, then he might finally shut up about it all.
00:18:19So.
00:18:22Is that a yes?
00:18:25Yes.
00:18:28I didn't want to give my blessing until you'd given yours.
00:18:36Yes, good.
00:18:44Yes?
00:18:47Yes, of course.
00:18:48It's the queen.
00:18:50You're wrong, Harvest.
00:18:51Harvest.
00:18:52Yes, put her through, please.
00:19:02Mummy.
00:19:08I can't believe you caved like that.
00:19:10I didn't cave.
00:19:11I'm just being a realist.
00:19:12And changing your tune.
00:19:13I'm not saying what you feel.
00:19:14That's what being a realist is.
00:19:15You're such a fucking company, man.
00:19:17I'm just trying to be an adult.
00:19:20Don't expect you to understand what that feels like.
00:19:24Congratulations.
00:19:29Thank you, mummy.
00:21:03How was it with the boys today?
00:21:05Fine.
00:21:07That's a relief.
00:21:09They supported the idea of the marriage.
00:21:12Slightly through gritted teeth.
00:21:16Harry's more gritted than William's.
00:21:19I'm not surprised.
00:21:22I worry about Harry.
00:21:25We all do.
00:21:27Some time in the army should sort him out.
00:21:35Everything all right?
00:21:37I think so.
00:21:39Though, as you predicted,
00:21:42all this talk of my funeral has stirred things up a bit.
00:21:47Anything you want to discuss?
00:21:50Not yet.
00:21:58Well, in that case,
00:22:01good night.
00:22:02Good night.
00:22:04Good night.
00:22:15Let's go.
00:22:35Wait. Thank you.
00:23:06Your Majesty, you asked to see me.
00:23:09I did.
00:23:11I hope you know how much everyone appreciates your beautiful music every day.
00:23:16I don't mind telling you.
00:23:18There are days when I wake up and it all feels a bit...
00:23:22Then I hear you play and all that goes away.
00:23:25Thank you, ma'am.
00:23:27They've got me planning my funeral at the moment.
00:23:31Just as a precaution, and I'm in the process of choosing the music
00:23:35and wondered if there was a tune for the pipes you thought might work.
00:23:42There are a number of laments written for fallen soldiers, ma'am.
00:23:49I will go home to contain. It springs to mind.
00:23:52Lord Lovett's Lament.
00:23:53But is there a particular one that you like?
00:23:56Me, ma'am?
00:23:58Yes, pipes. You.
00:24:05There is...
00:24:09There is one...
00:24:10that I particularly like.
00:24:15It's sleep, dearie sleep.
00:24:18Will you play it for me?
00:24:24What now?
00:24:25Why not?
00:24:27Inside.
00:24:29It's a hell of a din, ma'am.
00:24:32It's not a din to me.
00:24:34It is, it is a little thing.
00:24:46It is a little thing.
00:24:49It is, it is a little bit like a Hamilton-Cast.
00:24:49And, as a sister, it is a little bit...
00:24:50The Lady...
00:24:50It is a little bit like a video that, a little bit like...
00:24:51Time for the queen.
00:24:53That is pretty deep.
00:24:53Why is that a çok...
00:24:53The lady...
00:24:54The woman that lives...
00:24:55The one that lives...
00:24:57The The lady...
00:24:57The lady...
00:25:28Soldier, lie down on your wee pickle store
00:25:36It's not very broad, and it's not very broad
00:25:46But dearie, it's better than nothing
00:25:53It's all sleep, dearie sleep
00:26:01It's all sleep, dearie sleep
00:26:09It's all sleep
00:26:16It's all sleep
00:26:21It's all sleep
00:26:24It's all sleep
00:26:33There we go
00:26:34What about an astronaut
00:26:36Or a cowboy
00:26:37No, he's more of a goody-goody
00:26:39Or a dick
00:26:40I'm going as a lion
00:26:41As a lion king
00:26:42Oh, RFR
00:26:43I'm going to ghost
00:26:44What about figgles?
00:26:46What's that got to do with colonials and natives?
00:26:48Good point
00:26:50Germany had an empire, didn't they?
00:26:52What about this?
00:26:54I don't know
00:26:55Maybe cover the swastika?
00:26:56Oh, come on
00:26:57Wearing the outfit doesn't make him a Nazi
00:26:59Isn't that the joke?
00:27:01How about that wedding dress for you?
00:27:03Come on
00:27:05Don't pretend you haven't already thought about it
00:27:09Thanks Harry, nice touch
00:27:10Your brother
00:27:13Where's God?
00:27:14Oh, you're gone
00:27:18Hello
00:27:21Who stole my gandruff?
00:27:25That's my grandmother
00:27:26I like the way you move
00:27:34Hello, darling
00:27:38Hello
00:27:38How you doing?
00:27:40How are you doing?
00:27:42How are you doing?
00:27:45Three or five in half
00:27:48What are you doing?
00:27:50What are you doing?
00:27:51I'm being fat
00:27:52Oh, you're kidding
00:27:52I'm so sorry
00:27:54There we are
00:27:55What are you doing?
00:27:57Guy
00:27:57Guy
00:27:59That's me
00:28:00So you're going up onto the stage
00:28:01Excuse me
00:28:02Sorry
00:28:12I want to be free
00:28:16I want to be free
00:28:20I want to break free from your lies
00:28:24You're so selfish
00:28:25I want to break free
00:29:02I want to break free
00:29:03I want to break free
00:29:04I want to break free
00:29:45Oh shit
00:29:59Oh Harry
00:30:07Fuck
00:30:08Fuck
00:30:12Fuck
00:30:13Fuck
00:30:17I was a troublemaker at school
00:30:20Repeatedly caned by my housemaster
00:30:23Six of the best
00:30:25We all make mistakes in the flashes of youth
00:30:28Rarely as gross a misjudgment as this
00:30:31Swastika armband two weeks before Holocaust Memorial Day
00:30:36There's a great deal of affection in the country for Harry
00:30:40An apology followed by a period of contrition
00:30:45Should pave the way for forgiveness
00:30:48Is that the advice you'll be giving yourself over Iraq
00:30:52I think we can agree things are not working out too well over there
00:30:58My hope is that the democratic elections scheduled for the end of this month will form the beginnings of an
00:31:05exit strategy that should allow us to close this chapter and move on
00:31:14Exit strategy
00:31:15Exit strategy
00:31:18Well
00:31:20That's a subject that's been coming up a lot recently
00:31:25Ok
00:31:33We want to thread it through
00:31:35We want to thread it through
00:31:38Here it's alright thank you I think I remember thank you
00:31:54That's it.
00:31:57No, why haven't it gone through?
00:31:59It's meant to go under here.
00:32:01It hasn't.
00:32:02I took that about it.
00:32:05Stop that.
00:32:06No.
00:32:08Yes!
00:32:10Oh, bingo.
00:32:15Oh, good.
00:32:39Oh, good.
00:32:48Oh, good.
00:32:52Oh, good.
00:33:01Oh, good.
00:33:07Oh, good.
00:33:15Oh, good.
00:33:22Oh, good.
00:35:21Oh, there you are.
00:35:23Yes, here I still am.
00:35:26No breakfast.
00:35:28Wasn't hungry.
00:35:29Not like you.
00:35:49How was Harry?
00:35:50A bit subdued.
00:35:53His father's got him mucking out pigs as punishment.
00:35:57That feels a little Old Testament.
00:35:59I agree.
00:36:02Harry was foolish to go to that party dressed in that costume, but he was bloody unlucky that a fellow
00:36:09guest should go to the newspapers like that.
00:36:11Yes.
00:36:13So I phoned the costume rental shop, gave him a piece of my mind.
00:36:18Why?
00:36:19What will it take to get you to understand?
00:36:22Should I draw it in sodding crayon?
00:36:26Well, the uniform was inaccurate.
00:36:29The German African Corps never wore swastikas.
00:36:35A fact I impressed upon the Sandhurst top brass, who happily agreed this latest episode should not prevent Harry entering
00:36:45officer training.
00:36:46Oh, well done.
00:36:47To ban him would be madness and would only exacerbate the real problem.
00:36:53Which is?
00:36:54A lack of a sense of purpose due to a failure of responsible parenting.
00:37:02Yes.
00:37:06Do you want to discuss anything before I go?
00:37:09About what?
00:37:11Well, the funeral.
00:37:13But it might have stirred up for you.
00:37:16No.
00:37:18Right.
00:37:19Well, I'll be off.
00:37:22Duty calls.
00:37:25Yes.
00:37:35You coward.
00:37:37Why didn't you tell him?
00:37:41What you've been thinking since you first started working on your funeral.
00:37:45In fact, since the golden jubilee.
00:37:49How tired.
00:37:50No, not just tired.
00:37:52Exhausted you are by it all.
00:37:55Yes.
00:38:01How ready for a rest.
00:38:05And at the same time, how ready he suddenly looks.
00:38:09Who?
00:38:11Charles.
00:38:14Oh.
00:38:15Him.
00:38:16Yes.
00:38:28We even have precedent.
00:38:30Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands was 68 when she stepped down in favor of her daughter.
00:38:35Charlotte of Luxembourg was also in her late 60s.
00:38:37That's the Netherlands and Luxembourg.
00:38:39Bicycle monarchies.
00:38:40Not the same thing at all.
00:38:41It's exactly the same thing.
00:38:42And in both cases, a great success.
00:38:49You've been on the throne for over half a century.
00:38:52That's longer than any other queen.
00:38:53Apart from Queen Victoria.
00:38:54How effective was she by the end?
00:38:57Rheumatic and blind.
00:38:58Weak and unwell.
00:38:59Hidden away on the Isle of Wight.
00:39:01You're almost 80 years old.
00:39:03So everyone keeps reminding me.
00:39:05Well, that's nearly 20 years past the retirement age for women.
00:39:08No need to go on.
00:39:09That's what I'm saying.
00:39:11No need to go on.
00:39:14Your first loyalty has always been to the crown.
00:39:17Sometimes at the expense of being a mother.
00:39:22Stepping down is the right thing to do.
00:39:26As queen and as a mother.
00:39:27What happened?
00:39:32Right.
00:39:40Come back, Steve.
00:40:06Everyone has now agreed on a date for the wedding, 9th of April, at the Guildhall in Windsor.
00:40:14We also felt, given your role as head of the Church of England and the Church's position
00:40:20that marriage is a lifelong commitment, that it would be wrong for you to attend the ceremony
00:40:25in person.
00:40:27The idea being you can watch the coverage on television and then join everyone for the
00:40:32service at St. George's Chapel, and the reception at Windsor Castle.
00:40:40Has the Prime Minister been invited to the reception?
00:40:43Yes, ma'am.
00:40:44And the leader of the opposition?
00:40:46Yes.
00:40:47And the Archbishop of Canterbury?
00:40:49Yes.
00:40:50And there will be an opportunity for me to say a few words.
00:40:54Oh, I'm sure everyone would be delighted.
00:40:57Would you like me to draft something?
00:41:00That won't be necessary.
00:41:01I'll write something myself.
00:41:02That's all.
00:41:03Thank you, Robin.
00:41:20You were all for the uniform in the costume shop, egging me on.
00:41:23Now suddenly you're Mr. Morality.
00:41:25Oh, okay, right.
00:41:25Stabbing me in the back.
00:41:27Ladies and gentlemen, the jury, how many faces does this man have?
00:41:29You know, I'm not sure I like who you're turning into.
00:41:31And I'm not sure I like who you've been on a lot.
00:41:32Can you stop bickering, please?
00:41:33I beg you.
00:41:36How was supper?
00:41:38Well, I'm sad to say it was all rather unpleasant.
00:41:41Boys were snapping at each other.
00:41:44Well, that's just boys.
00:41:45Can I just make one request?
00:41:47That you don't make my wedding day a misery.
00:41:51I've waited too long for it.
00:41:54Yes, but you didn't witness it.
00:41:56It was horrid how they were to each other.
00:41:59Vicious and unkind.
00:42:01They're young, riding the waves of emotion, which is understandable after what they've been through.
00:42:07Are they going to blame me, do you think, and hold me responsible for the way they've turned out?
00:42:13Well, being their father, you are responsible for making it better.
00:42:20As soon as they're through tomorrow, everything will be fine.
00:42:25Well, I do hope so.
00:42:27And how are you?
00:42:28Me?
00:42:30I'm all right.
00:42:32My sister persuaded me to get a fake tan, so now I smell like the dog's blanket.
00:42:41Are you having any last-minute doubts?
00:42:44Not me.
00:42:46I'm in.
00:42:50For all of it?
00:42:52For whatever being married to you turns out to be.
00:42:56Well, you might find out what that entails sooner than you imagine.
00:43:01What's that supposed to mean?
00:43:03Well, I've been told that the Queen intends to make a speech at the reception afterwards.
00:43:08A speech which nobody has seen, and which she's, um, written herself.
00:43:17It feels like she's planning a big announcement.
00:43:22My father met with Anne to ask what she thought was in it, but she's as baffled as the rest
00:43:27of us.
00:43:28Then Anne rang Andrew, and he went riding with the Queen, but, you know, Andrew drew a complete blank.
00:43:37So if her intention was to set tongues wagging, she certainly succeeded.
00:43:44Don't give it any further thought.
00:43:46Yes.
00:43:48Just think about the boys.
00:43:51Thank you, darling.
00:44:12Here.
00:44:17Dinner was weird.
00:44:21Yeah.
00:44:24When he overcompensates like that, this could be an exciting new chapter for us all.
00:44:32Baff.
00:44:33A few years ago, it would have pissed me off.
00:44:37Now I just don't care.
00:44:44I heard Granny's going to make a speech at the wedding.
00:44:48Would you like to know what else I had?
00:44:52That she's going to use the occasion to tell the family she's standing down after 50 years in the job.
00:44:58She'd never do that.
00:45:00And even if she did, why on past big day?
00:45:02Because it's the wedding present he most wants.
00:45:07He does want it, doesn't he?
00:45:09He does want it, doesn't he?
00:45:09Craves it.
00:45:12For him and for Camilla.
00:45:18If she did, you know what else it would mean?
00:45:21It would be you next.
00:45:24That would make you William the...
00:45:26Fifth.
00:45:27Better than second.
00:45:29He was assassinated by his brother.
00:45:31Was he?
00:45:32Who, would you believe, was also called Prince Harry?
00:45:36He had William killed in a shooting accident and galloped off to Winchester to claim the throne for himself.
00:45:44Don't worry me, I'm going to do that to you.
00:46:01Really?
00:46:02Yeah.
00:46:02It's the whole piece of the other hand.
00:46:04There.
00:46:06It's all for it.
00:46:41The boys.
00:47:41The cheers from the crowds lining the streets of Windsor can be heard from miles around
00:47:46as Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles pass through them on the way to their civil
00:47:51marriage ceremony. Wonderful scenes here as the royal couple smiles and waves to the hundreds of
00:47:57well-wishers who have been waiting since dawn to get the best view of the happy couple.
00:48:02Then they've just arrived at the Guildhall, stepping out to the Queen's own Rolls-Royce Phantom
00:48:07Six, which was originally presented to Her Majesty in 1978.
00:48:11I don't know what you think you're doing. I'm doing the sensible thing, the responsible thing.
00:48:19If we're not careful, if I go on another 20, 25 years, a tired, white-haired, geriatric
00:48:26queen will hand over to a tired, white-haired, geriatric Prince of Wales.
00:48:30Those are the rules. But if he were then to go on another 20, 25 years, it would mean that
00:48:37for the next half century, the British monarchy would be a very decrepit experience indeed.
00:48:42Is that the right thing to do to the institution?
00:48:45Charles isn't the prime of his life now.
00:48:48Honestly, I've never heard so much nonsense.
00:48:50Have you forgotten the oath that you took?
00:48:53I declare before you all that my whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be devoted
00:48:58to your service.
00:48:59You're fit enough to ride and drive, so you're fit enough to wear the crown.
00:49:03You remember what Queen Mary told you?
00:49:08Another geriatric.
00:49:12Monarchy is something you are, not what you do.
00:49:15The crown is a symbol of permanence, of stability, of continuity.
00:49:19If you step down, you will be symbolizing instability and impermanence.
00:49:25You'll also be indicating the luxury of choice, which is the one thing we cannot have if we
00:49:30claim the crown is also our birthright.
00:49:33So you would have a superannuated old lady running the show, while a fit, energetic Prince
00:49:38of Wales watches on, straining at the leash.
00:49:40But I don't see you as decrepit.
00:49:43Since the Jubilee, since Mummy's death, I see you as liberated.
00:49:48Confident.
00:49:50You say that Charles is in his prime.
00:49:52Well, I see you in yours.
00:49:58And admit it.
00:50:01You sometimes think there's a difference between you and the rest of the family.
00:50:09Yes.
00:50:11It comes naturally to you.
00:50:15They all seem to make such a mess of it.
00:50:18I didn't say that.
00:50:22No, but you've thought it.
00:50:24Privately.
00:50:27And with good reason.
00:50:31This system is a dreadful thing to inflict upon people.
00:50:36It's not natural.
00:50:37It's not fair.
00:50:39It's not kind.
00:50:42But you seem to thrive in it.
00:50:46And more importantly, it seems to thrive under you.
00:50:52So shouldn't you stay for every single day that you can?
00:51:00But what about the life I put aside?
00:51:06The woman I put aside
00:51:10when I became queen?
00:51:16What sort of question is that?
00:51:19For years now, there has been just one Elizabeth.
00:51:24Queen Elizabeth.
00:51:30If you went looking for Elizabeth Windsor,
00:51:33you wouldn't find her.
00:51:37She's gone.
00:51:40Long gone.
00:51:43You buried her years ago.
00:52:03And here they are,
00:52:04his royal highness,
00:52:05the prince of Wales,
00:52:06and her royal highness,
00:52:07the duchess of Cornwall,
00:52:09facing the public for the first time
00:52:11as man and one.
00:52:13No fairytale kiss from the happy couple
00:52:15for the onlookers.
00:52:16Instead, smiles and a brief wave.
00:52:25Ready?
00:52:27Yes, I think so.
00:52:31The son.
00:52:33The speech you're about to make.
00:52:35Yes?
00:52:37Everyone's got their knickers in a twist about it.
00:52:41Have they?
00:52:42Are you sure you don't want to discuss it?
00:52:44Quite sure.
00:52:49Come on.
00:52:54Praise my soul,
00:52:56the King of heaven
00:53:13Almighty God,
00:53:16Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
00:53:19maker of all things,
00:53:20judge of all men,
00:53:23we acknowledge and bewail
00:53:25our manifold sins and wickedness,
00:53:27which we, from time to time,
00:53:30most grievously have committed
00:53:31by thought, word, and deed
00:53:34against thy divine majesty,
00:53:37provoking most justly
00:53:38thy wrath and indignation against us.
00:53:42We do earnestly repent
00:53:44and are heartily sorry
00:53:46for these our misdoings.
00:53:48The remembrance of them
00:53:50is grievous unto us.
00:53:51The burden of them
00:53:52is intolerable.
00:53:55Have mercy upon us.
00:53:56Have mercy upon us,
00:53:58most merciful Father.
00:53:59Forgive us all that is past.
00:54:02Grant that we may ever hereafter
00:54:05serve and please thee
00:54:06in newness of life,
00:54:08in the honour and glory of thy name.
00:54:12Amen.
00:54:13Amen.
00:54:35You're all right.
00:54:37Thank you very much.
00:54:52I'm ready for you, ma'am.
00:55:29I suppose one has to start these things with an introduction.
00:55:34For those of you who don't know me, I am the mother of the groom.
00:55:43Today has been a memorable day, with a single happy event bringing the whole nation together.
00:55:51The Grand National Steeplechase finished 20 minutes ago, and the results were as follows.
00:55:57Hedge Hunter, the 7-1 favourite, ridden by Ruby Walsh, trained by Willie Mullins, won the race by 14 lengths.
00:56:05Royal Leclerc finished second, simply gifted third.
00:56:10In other news, there is a small family wedding in the Windsor area, which the police are keeping their eyes
00:56:19on.
00:56:20Chief Constable Darren Dead said he was hoping that displays of excessive exuberance would be kept to a minimum.
00:56:31Almost 650 years ago, the chaplain at Windsor played host to the wedding of another Prince of Wales, Edward, the
00:56:41Black Prince.
00:56:43The young Edward was widely expected to marry a European princess, but Edward had other ideas.
00:56:48He set his heart on a woman he had known his whole life, slightly his senior, a mother who had
00:56:56previously been married.
00:57:00What ensued was a devoted, loving marriage that would last their whole lives.
00:57:11Charles, I know that over the years, it hasn't been easy.
00:57:16Being Prince of Wales is hardly a recipe for happiness. History has taught us that.
00:57:21To be condemned to watch an old parent do a job one can imagine oneself doing better for years and
00:57:28years.
00:57:31It is to your great credit that you have filled this vacuum, not like several predecessors, with idleness and excess,
00:57:42but with a great swell of activity and charitable endeavour.
00:57:57And now, a word of thanks to Camilla.
00:58:03It can't have been easy for you either over the years,
00:58:07but your good cheer and warm humanity work wonderfully in your favour,
00:58:14both as a strength and stay for the Prince of Wales and as an addition to this family.
00:58:24Thank you for your patience and forbearance.
00:58:31So now, will you all raise your glasses to the young couple?
00:58:37Charles and Camilla.
00:58:39Charles and Camilla!
00:58:56Charles and Camilla.
00:59:10Thank you though surprisingly short I'm sure you didn't forget half of it I don't know what you're
00:59:17talking about what do you think yeah it's better than the beer cans Harold wants to tie to the
00:59:28bumper be kind to him in many ways it's harder being number two than number one the system
00:59:38protects number one number two tends to go bad I was going to say need extra care and attention

01:01:53Let's go. Let's go.
01:02:10Ah.
01:02:13There you are.
01:02:15Yes.
01:02:17Here I still am.
01:02:19Oh.
01:02:24Good day, I think.
01:02:26Oh, yes.
01:02:27I had the winner on three of the four races at Aintree.
01:02:30How are you planning on celebrating?
01:02:32Oh, night on the town?
01:02:35Joyriding, ramraiding?
01:02:36Give Chief Constable Dead something to worry about after all?
01:02:40Well done with the speech.
01:02:43It's funny.
01:02:44Don't sound so surprised.
01:02:46And not a hint of the torment you've been going through.
01:02:50Was it that obvious?
01:02:52Yes.
01:02:53But the right decision has been made.
01:02:56You will continue as queen for as long as you possibly can, for one reason.
01:03:02Because those are the rules.
01:03:04No.
01:03:04Because those that come after you are not remotely ready to take over.
01:03:10No, but I wasn't either.
01:03:12Remember?
01:03:12I was so young.
01:03:13Oh, no, no.
01:03:14You were always ready.
01:03:16You were born ready.
01:03:19You are one of a kind.
01:03:23By contrast, this lot.
01:03:26Mm-hmm.
01:03:29The good thing is, it's not our problem.
01:03:33This is where we will be, you and I.
01:03:36Right under this stone.
01:03:41We'll never hear the screams from inside there.
01:03:44Philip.
01:03:45What?
01:03:46You know I'm right.
01:03:49The system makes no sense anymore to those outside it, nor to those of us inside it.
01:03:59All human things are subject to decay, and when fate summons, even monarchs must obey.
01:04:12We're a dying breed, you and I.
01:04:16Oh, I'm sure everyone will carry on pretending all is well.
01:04:21But the party's over.
01:04:25The good news is, that while Rome burns and the temple falls, we will sleep, dearie sleep.
01:04:38Oh.
01:04:39You looked?
01:04:41Yes.
01:04:43A piper's lament.
01:04:46Your sole musical choice.
01:04:50It's very you.
01:04:53And your coffin, being driven in an old Land Rover, is very you.
01:04:57Oh.
01:04:58You looked.
01:04:59I did.
01:05:03Well.
01:05:10I'll leave you to it.
01:05:12Say one for me.
