02:24Amazing praise, O sweet, O Son, and save the wretched King.
02:39I once was lost, but now am found, was blind, but now I see.
02:56Thank you, thank you.
03:13There's a school of progressive medical thought that suggests we bring cancer upon ourselves
03:22as a result of repressed emotion or unresolved psychological trauma.
03:30Then a perfectly angelic five-year-old dies of it,
03:36and you realize what utter rubbish that is.
03:41Poor Norton.
03:43Yes.
03:45Why don't you pay him a visit?
03:48He could probably do with some support from his godfather.
03:53Yes.
03:55Yes, right.
04:01What's that look?
04:06I've never seen so many thoughts go on behind someone's eyes.
04:10Gratitude.
04:12Appreciation.
04:13What for?
04:16You make a better person of me.
04:19And you of me.
04:23Isn't that the point of marriage?
04:34Good night.
04:43Good night.
04:55Good night.
05:10Good night.
06:11You, um, you are coming.
06:14Sorry, one of those mornings.
06:16We're there in.
06:17One minute.
06:17One minute.
06:18One minute.
06:22One minute away and she apologises.
06:25Was that actually her?
06:27Yes, that was actually her.
06:31One minute.
06:35One minute.
06:46One minute.
06:50One minute.
07:14We saw the pictures of you in Italy well you will look so happy turning you
07:21it's honestly worse than ever I'm gonna ask for what to do
07:58James coldest isn't it yes give a moment which one tall with glasses
08:25what it's really been like marrying into the royal family the truth behind the fairy tale I said you'd
08:32never agree to be involved in something like that so then we arranged to play a game of squash what
08:37you saw my racket in the corner of my office and suggested a game James don't worry I said
08:43any further discussion of you was totally off-limits it's about to be I'll call you after I've seen it
09:06hello
09:09hello
09:19hello
09:20hello
09:21hello
09:21hello
09:36hello
09:44Hello?
09:48Hello?
09:53Oh, no.
09:54What have I done now?
09:56You're here today.
09:58Norton said you were coming tomorrow.
10:00He just left for London for meetings with the bank.
10:04Let me see if I can reach him.
10:06Oh, don't go to any trouble.
10:13What can I get you? Are you hungry?
10:16Oh, God, no. No, nothing like that.
10:20No, I, uh...
10:23I just came by to see how you're coping.
10:28That's kind.
10:31And to bring these.
10:36Daisies.
10:37Well, Leonora.
10:39You mentioned at the memorial that they were her favourite.
10:45That's so kind of you.
10:48Shall we take them to her?
11:00Norton thought it was morbid to have her so close.
11:04Yes, but...
11:06I wanted somewhere I could see her every day.
11:10To be near to her every day.
11:14It also means I can never leave here.
11:17Why would you want her?
11:22It's not always easy.
11:24It's not always easy.
11:47You know, one of the many, many things that attracted me to Lilibet...
11:52was that the commitment would necessarily be lifelong.
11:59To a young man who'd had such an unsettled and romantic childhood.
12:05The clarity of that permanence felt so reassuring.
12:09It still does.
12:12But it brings its problems, too.
12:16Because it doesn't take into account the one thing human beings do...
12:21the minute they make a commitment to a life together.
12:25Which is?
12:27It's growing separate directions.
12:47Tell Norton I'll be sure to be in touch soon...
12:49for a godfatherly chat.
12:53And as for you, there's...
12:55there's two things you might consider.
12:57Why not start a charity in Leonora's name?
13:01Yes, I'd already had that idea.
13:03And you might find yourself a hobby.
13:06Something that has nothing to do with any of this.
13:09Not a hobby.
13:10An escape.
13:12A passion.
13:13I'll bear that in mind.
13:15Good.
13:17Speaking of hobbies...
13:19Norton said that you'd...
13:21given up polo and developed a thing for carriage driving.
13:25I have, yes.
13:27I'm obsessed.
13:28Why?
13:36Look at that.
13:40An old four in hand.
13:42Norton wanted to sell it.
13:44Can't do that.
13:45We've been told it's beyond repair.
13:47Then he thought if you could make use of it...
13:49Well, she may be a bit dusty.
13:51Oh, I think the damage is worse than that.
13:53All right. A bit cracked in places.
13:55Norton was told structurally irreparable.
13:59No, no, no. She's a beauty.
14:01And part of the family heritage.
14:07I'll tell you what.
14:09Why don't we do this?
14:12I'll send someone to collect her.
14:15We'll clean her up, take a look at her.
14:18And then we can talk again.
14:19We don't need to talk again.
14:22This could be a hobby for you.
14:24Oh.
14:26No, it's really not for me.
14:27Oh, well.
14:29That was my attitude at first.
14:31But then I tried it and...
14:32I saw the light.
14:38Um...
14:39Oh!
14:43Oh!
14:44Oh!
14:47Oh!
14:48Oh!
14:49Oh!
14:49Oh!
14:57Oh!
14:59Oh, my God!
15:03Oh, God!
15:04Oh, God!
15:05That's it.
15:05Oh, God!
15:08Oh, God!
15:10Oh, God!
15:11Oh, God.
15:11Oh, God.
15:19Go first.
15:28Hello.
15:32Right then. Thank you.
15:46How was it?
15:49Bloody hell.
15:51Very evenly matched.
15:52He moves infuriatingly well for a tall man.
15:55Quick to the tee.
15:57Plenty of nasty little drop shots and boasts.
15:59We played the best of three games.
16:02Pipped him in the third.
16:03I wasn't asking about the squash.
16:05I want to know about the lunch.
16:07Ah, a little Italian place near the squash club.
16:10The Barker, run by a husband and wife.
16:12Not where you had lunch.
16:14Oh, sorry.
16:15What you ate?
16:16Linguini.
16:20Let's start with who paid.
16:22He did.
16:23James.
16:23He's a tabloid journalist.
16:25And he bought lunch because he lost.
16:27And if you are worried about indiscretion, he got nothing from me.
16:30Not a word.
16:30Whereas I got plenty out of him.
16:33Revelation number one.
16:34Morton.
16:35He's already started writing.
16:36What?
16:37He thinks there's already another book coming out about you that's likely to be a bit of a hatchet job.
16:41Yeah.
16:41Based on sources close to the Prince of Wales.
16:44Oh, God.
16:44Anyway, Morton's view is that his version would at least give you some control.
16:49Like, uh, be sympathetic.
16:52He'd even let you have final approval.
16:54Trust me, I'd love to have a book out there so everyone understands how difficult it's been for me.
16:57But I don't want to be responsible for starting a war.
17:00Morton said that you'd never need to meet him.
17:02Ever.
17:03There would be no connection between the two of you that anyone could prove.
17:07It would all be totally deniable.
17:09How'd that even work?
17:10Tape recordings.
17:12You would record your side of the story saying only what you want to say all in your own words
17:17and then Morton would write the book from those recordings.
17:21If you and I don't meet, how would he get the recordings?
17:27There would have to be a middleman.
17:30Go between someone who you both trusted.
17:35Someone who thought it was important.
17:39And you would do that?
17:42If you wanted me to.
17:59Go.
18:10Where do you think that'll be?
18:11How much do we do that?
18:13No.
18:13Yeah, don't, don't.
18:18Oh, marvelous, marvelous.
18:20You've got the hickory in time.
18:31I've taken the liberty of getting another few ideas.
18:45You've missed a bit.
19:04Come on, let's go.
19:05Come on, Randy.
19:22Thank you, sir.
19:26You said it couldn't be done.
19:27You pulled all the stops here, sir.
19:29He worked very hard.
19:41Come on.
19:43What do you think?
19:44Is it even the same carriage?
19:48The original paintwork was a dark black.
19:51I thought we'd have these dashes of gold
19:53and this nice sloping footboard.
19:58Go on.
20:04Now grab here.
20:06The foot here.
20:08The other foot here.
20:18How does it feel?
20:20Fine.
20:22Largely because it's not moving.
20:23It's not moving.
20:41You try.
20:44These two reins control the leaders.
20:47Those are the horses at the front.
20:49And these two, the wheelers.
20:51They control the horses nearest to us.
20:54Feel free to nod or say yes to let me know you're still alive.
20:58Yes.
20:59The trick is to keep these both together.
21:02Put between these two fingers.
21:05There.
21:06Now, these two reins you have control over all four horses.
21:11So turn left.
21:13Make a loop.
21:14That's it.
21:15Turn to the left.
21:18And to turn right.
21:19Take it.
21:20Very good.
21:23Off you go.
21:33Here.
21:34Let me take you.
21:41Well, where are we going?
21:53Hang on.
22:11Surprising, isn't it?
22:12Yes.
22:13More fun than it looks.
22:14Yes.
22:22The princess is intrigued by the proposition and is wanting to consider it.
22:26But as her friend,
22:30I want to make sure that this will actually make her life better, not just yours.
22:34You understand why I ask.
22:36She can be a little naive at times and you stand to become a rich man.
22:41I feel protective.
22:43As a royal correspondent, I've had a ringside seat to this marriage for a while.
22:49Most recently her second honeymoon.
22:53And I can't stand to see someone being crushed like this.
22:56You think she is being?
22:57I do.
22:58Take this book that's being written.
23:00With the Prince of Wales' cooperation.
23:02Maybe not him directly, but his friends for sure.
23:06Who want what they see as the truth about Diana to be told.
23:09Trust me.
23:10It won't be pretty.
23:14I just want to do what's right for her.
23:16She'd like a sister to me.
23:19Can I give you my word?
23:21No one will ever know she had anything to do with it.
23:26Let's take it one step at a time.
23:28Get a draft written.
23:30The princess can always kill it later if she wants.
23:41Here's a list of questions for her.
23:54Bye, Mummy.
23:56Do that.
24:07You have plenty?
24:07That's a wild than, I think.
24:13This teammates are dead.
24:13You're dead.
24:14Things are dead...
24:14You're dead.
24:23You see?
24:51Ready?
24:58I'm suddenly incredibly nervous.
25:02Andrew wanted you to start by explaining why you're doing this.
25:12I've tried everything.
25:17I've confronted my husband about his mistress and I have been dismissed.
25:23I've gone to the Queen, started facing a blank wall.
25:29And it finally dawned on me.
25:32And that's how I get my side of the story out there.
25:34People will never understand how it's really been for me.
25:40And I thought about moving abroad with the boys.
25:44But the Crown could take legal custody of any heirs to the throne.
25:51And I'd have the boys taken away from me.
25:58Which is what happened to my mother.
26:03And I couldn't survive that.
26:21Can you tell me something about your childhood?
26:24It was a very unhappy childhood.
26:29My parents were always wrapped up in their own problems.
26:33And my mother was always in tears.
26:36And my father never telling us what was going on.
26:43And there was always a succession of nannies.
26:47who I hated.
26:50Prince Charles famously replied,
26:52whatever in love means,
26:54and asked if he was in love with you.
26:56How did that make you feel?
27:00Absolutely traumatized.
27:02My self-worth was cut in two.
27:07But...
27:08I was too scared to ask him what he meant.
27:11And then it was too late.
27:14From the outside, it was the fairytale wedding.
27:17How did it feel on the inside?
27:22Like a bad dream.
27:24The night before the wedding.
27:27I was suddenly overwhelmed.
27:31And I sobbed my eyes out.
27:36And I ate everything inside.
27:39And I was sick all over the place.
27:42Which was a big sign that all was not well.
27:47And I'm walking down the aisle.
27:48I was overwhelmed with love for my husband.
27:52And then I saw Camilla
27:54in her grey suit
27:56and her pillbox hat.
27:58And I just felt chill to the bone.
28:02How quickly did things start to go sour?
28:05Well, I started to unravel at the honeymoon.
28:09And at night, I was having these dreadful nightmares
28:11about Camilla.
28:13When the Queen was there,
28:14I always felt second place.
28:16Charles barely looked at me.
28:17I just felt like a fish out of the water.
28:18And I was so thin.
28:20My bones were just sticking up all over the place.
28:22When I talked to him about photographers pounding me,
28:25he talked about Camilla.
28:26When I tried to be brave,
28:28make a speech in world,
28:29I got no support.
28:31Well, I just felt like a lamb to the slaughter.
28:33Did you feel that your husband
28:34was committed to the marriage
28:35in the same way that you were?
28:37Well, there was always the other one.
28:41From the word go,
28:45And I couldn't compete.
28:49And I'd overhear him on the phone to her.
28:52And he used a voice I'd never heard him use with me.
28:57Tender, caring, adoring.
29:03When I was pregnant with William,
29:04I threw myself down the stairs at Sandringham.
29:06I was talking to him about the marathon at Sandringham.
29:40and just listen to the tapes he has and drafted some follow-up questions what
29:46should he think I think it was a bit shocked he said he had to look up
29:52bulimia nervosa and Kumar and Clarks I have to admit there have been a few
29:59surprises for me in all this too I wish you'd have told me before about the
30:13the suicide attempts so sorry
30:19why didn't you call us
30:30he wants to know if he can speak to any of your friends why he said it would
30:34help with the deniability if you can show he has other sources for all this
30:37that gives you cover he'd ask them the same questions I've asked you and
30:41they'll be corroborating witnesses
30:47all right
30:53I'll start with Sue
30:54who's Sue?
30:56my room therapist
31:00and Felix Lyle
31:02Felix Lyle
31:04my astrologer
31:06um
31:07Una
31:08Shani Toffolo
31:10don't tell me she's your Reiki healer
31:12my acupuncturist
31:16um
31:17Stephen Twig my body worker
31:22it's like an osteopath
31:24right
31:35good good
31:37you're doing really well
31:40thanks
31:47here we are
31:52now
31:52I've had a go at the governing instrument for the charity
31:58these are the trust of deeds
32:01the memorandum
32:02and the articles
32:04what do you think of a research fellowship
32:08to study cancer in children
32:12they were all so good to us at Barts
32:14made such a difference to Leonora's final days
32:18I think that's a lovely idea
32:20getting registration can be a bit of a slog but
32:23well I'm on good terms with some of the charity commissioners
32:27let me talk to them
32:28you know a long time ago
32:40I lost my favorite sister
32:44Cecile
32:45in an airplane crash
32:49I learned then what grief
32:51was
32:53true grief
32:59how it
33:00moves
33:01through the body
33:04how it inhabits it
33:08how it becomes part of your skin
33:12your cells
33:16and it makes a home there
33:20a permanent home
33:27but you learn to live with it
33:32and you will be happy again
33:35no never in the same way as before
33:38but that's the point
33:42to keep finding
33:43new ways
33:49yes
34:15go
34:32go
34:33go
34:34go
34:34go
34:34go
34:34go
34:34go
34:39I don't know.
35:19Don't be silly.
35:22Anything you need, you have the number that gets straight through to me.
35:27Avoids the operator and all that nonsense.
35:30Oh, I almost forgot.
35:32Something Norton wanted me to pass on.
35:35Apparently there's a book being written about the Princess of Wales, with her cooperation.
35:39What kind of book?
35:40One that claims how badly she's been treated by the family.
35:44Everyone's failure to understand her.
35:47The jealousy everyone feels about her popularity and success.
35:51Norton said he'd had several calls from people saying that
35:54either they'd been approached or knew someone else who had.
35:59Probably just gossip.
36:02Norton should know better.
36:07Send him my best.
36:09I will.
36:30You don't think the two incidents are related?
36:32First you get locked off your bike, then Andrew's house gets broken into.
36:35It's not the first time I've been driven into the gutter by white van man.
36:39And break-ins happen in London hundreds of times a day.
36:42Besides, nothing was stolen.
36:44I'm not answering that.
36:45I'm not speaking on this thing again ever.
36:47I heard a click on a line this morning.
36:50This end.
36:51Patrick.
37:01Jeffson?
37:03Miles, good afternoon.
37:07Right.
37:08Of course.
37:10We'll come right back to you.
37:13Miles Hunt Davis, the Duke of Edinburgh's private secretary.
37:17Requesting a meeting with you as soon as possible.
37:24Three miles from Castle Derg in County Tyrone,
37:27when at least two terrorists were frightened off
37:30as they planned to ambush an off-duty member
37:32of the Royal Irish Regiment at his home.
37:38...with the security forces in the early hours of this morning.
37:41According to police, the fierce exchange of gunfire...
38:06...with the police.
38:18...with the police.
38:18Well, it's been a while since I've been in Kensington Palace.
38:24The leper colony.
38:27Is that what you call it?
38:30I think of it as the depot where we put all the mad old arts.
38:37All watching each other's comings and goings through net curtains.
38:44Is there any privacy at all?
38:47None.
38:48Ghastly.
38:49Because privacy is so important, isn't it?
38:53Yes.
38:56Confidentiality, too.
39:01I suppose that's what I've come to see you about today.
39:05Please.
39:08I won't, if that's all right.
39:18Yes, I can be a tough old nut.
39:21But I've always had a soft spot for you.
39:24Maybe because you're young.
39:26Maybe because you're a beautiful woman.
39:30Maybe because I often share your frustration with your husband.
39:35No, I've always felt protective of you.
39:39Fond of you.
39:40There.
39:41I've said it.
39:43So when I see you're making errors of judgment, I want to lean across the table and remind you, I'm
39:51on your team.
39:53What am I trying to say?
39:56You're not a novice anymore.
39:59You're long past the point of thinking of us as a family.
40:02That's the mistake people make in the beginning.
40:05But you understand, I think, it's a system.
40:09And we're all in this system.
40:11You, me, the boss, the cousins, the uncles, the aunts, the lepers.
40:20For better or for worse, we're all stuck in it.
40:25And we can't just air our grievances and throw bombs in the air as in a normal family.
40:32Or we end up damaging something much bigger and something much more important.
40:39The system.
40:43So the tip I want to give you is this.
40:47I mean, just...
40:49Just be creative.
40:53You can break as many rules as you like.
40:55You can do whatever you want.
40:58You can make whatever arrangements you need to find your own happiness.
41:04As long as you remember the one condition, the one rule,
41:10you remain loyal to your husband and loyal to this family in public.
41:18You mean silent?
41:20Yes.
41:24Don't rock the boat.
41:31Right.
41:32Ever.
41:34To the grave.
41:49You're not saying anything.
41:54I don't think there's anything to say.
42:00Do you know, I think that's the wisest thing I've ever heard come out of your mouth.
42:03In the last, we haven't been in these moments.
42:12To the end of the day.
42:12We are back, I can't wait for the day.
42:13Not to the end of the day.
42:14What is this?
42:15I can't wait for him, but it's not to stay alive.
42:29What is this?
42:30What is this?
42:32You can't wait for it.
42:44she'll be fine
42:48good
42:49yes
42:51I told her that if she were a little more clever
42:55little more strategic
42:58she could find all the happiness she needs in this system
43:02without anyone being any of the wiser
43:05is that the solution do you think
43:08that husbands and wives should keep secrets from one another
43:12secrets
43:12that's not a very nice word
43:15no
43:16no what I mean is
43:18if people were more considerate
43:21more mature
43:22more discreet
43:25it can actually be the glue
43:27that binds it all together
43:32you see I think in a marriage one should aim to exist
43:35without secrets
43:36or
43:38accommodations
43:39well that's because you are who you are
43:42and not just because any husband or wife can feel
43:45when something is awry
43:47but ultimately
43:49it's not what I know about you
43:52or even what you know about me
43:54it's what he knows
43:57about all of us
44:00I think he has the night off occasionally
44:10goodnight
44:11goodnight
44:34tonight I'm joined by Andrew Morton
44:37one time royal watcher
44:39and now author of the book that everyone is talking about
44:42Andrew
44:43good evening
44:44good evening
44:45for anyone who's been living under a rock
44:47and doesn't know
44:48could you tell us what your book is about
44:50my book is an intimate portrait of princess diane
44:53an attempt to tell the story of what her life
44:55and particularly her marriage is really like
44:57and the fact is
44:59behind the glamorous public facade
45:01what we have is a woman who is deeply unhappy
45:04which you go into in great detail
45:06in a book
45:07that seems to be channeling diana herself
45:09and yet which you claim
45:10she was in no way involved
45:12I can say categorically
45:14that I did not interview the princess
45:15but
45:16I spoke to her friends
45:18associates
45:18anyone who was willing to talk
45:20many of them were not just willing
45:21they were desperate
45:22to tell the world
45:23how it really is
45:24and we really are talking about
45:25the whole world
45:26I mean this book
45:27is breaking all kinds
45:29of publishing records
45:30in France
45:30Holland
45:31Germany
45:32Japan
45:32and is making you
45:34a rich man in the process
45:35do you feel a sense of guilt
45:37or responsibility
45:38for throwing the royal family
45:40into crisis
45:41honestly I think the royal family
45:43have been throwing themselves
45:44into crisis
45:45they knew what they were getting into
45:47with diana
45:47they knew she was vulnerable
45:49they knew she'd had
45:50a difficult childhood
45:53they knew she needed love
45:54and security
45:56and reassurance
45:58but did they give it to her
45:59no
46:01they gave her the total opposite
46:03so they can't be surprised
46:04she wants people to understand
46:05why she hasn't been happy
46:08so where does that leave us
46:10that leaves us
46:11in one of those cyclical moments
46:13where the royal family
46:14is in genuine crisis
46:16but where the fragile truce
46:18between diana and the royals
46:19is clearly not working
46:20there are two alternatives
46:22to a truce
46:23either you have
46:25a long-term negotiated peace
46:27which
46:28I don't see happening
46:30the two sides are too entrenched
46:33or
46:33you escalate
46:36into what?
46:37all-out war
46:39which sadly seems to be
46:41where this is currently headed
46:42a few years ago
47:111965
47:12and so let's say
