00:22:27where you'll make a speech to ex-servicemen at the Royal Yacht Club,
00:22:30then by ferry to visit a school near Mangrove Bay on Westbury Island,
00:22:33then you'll host a garden party here at the Baptist House
00:22:37for a thousand or so guests,
00:22:38where we're hoping to find a moment at the ceremonial planting of a tree.
00:22:42We'll find a moment during any of this to use the lavatory.
00:22:45I do hope tomorrow's better.
00:22:48I'm afraid not, sir.
00:22:49Up at 4.30 for a 6 a.m. flight to Jamaica.
00:22:55Oh, here we go again, waving like lunatic.
00:23:00With any luck, one day they'll all own television sets
00:23:03and they won't come out like this again.
00:23:06Man, sir, just before we take off,
00:23:08I thought I might go through the itinerary for our first day in Jamaica.
00:23:12Goody.
00:23:12Yes, sir. Do sit down, Michael.
00:23:15We arrive at noon to be greeted by the governor,
00:23:18representative of the West Indian Islands,
00:23:20and the guard of Mollah be formed by the Jamaican stand.
00:23:28This is the picture we shall never forget in Jamaica.
00:23:33The lovely lady and the tall, handsome figure of the sailor,
00:23:37her husband.
00:23:39So near to our children that they can almost be touched.
00:23:44So graceful and so near...
00:23:46Colonel Charter thought you might like to see the speech for tomorrow night, ma'am.
00:23:50I'll give you a chance to prepare.
00:24:01Oh, dear.
00:24:03Would you bring me a pencil, please?
00:24:06Ma'am?
00:24:07And ask Colonel Charter if you'd be so kind
00:24:09as to come see me in the morning.
00:24:35Good morning, sir.
00:24:36Good morning, sir.
00:24:38Good morning.
00:25:00Come in, Martin.
00:25:02You're wrong, heinous.
00:25:04The speech for the ambassador's reception tonight.
00:25:07Yes, ma'am.
00:25:09This was written for my sister.
00:25:10Very well written.
00:25:12Manifesting for her, in her register.
00:25:15Reflecting her character, if that's the right word.
00:25:18As we both know, I have a different character.
00:25:21Indeed.
00:25:22And since I shall be deputizing for my sister tonight,
00:25:25I was wondering if I might make one or two minor adjustments to the text.
00:25:30Ma'am?
00:25:31Give it a bit more color.
00:25:33Make it feel a bit more like me.
00:25:36Breathe a little life into it.
00:25:37I'm sure Her All-Harness appreciates him.
00:25:42There will be important people at the reception tonight
00:25:47of different backgrounds, different sensibilities.
00:25:51The speech has been carefully calibrated to avoid giving offense.
00:25:56And I'd suggest to avoid entertaining, too.
00:25:59It's not the sovereign's place to entertain.
00:26:03And I'm not the sovereign.
00:26:04I understand that.
00:26:06But you will be there in her place.
00:26:20What about the state diadem, Tiara?
00:26:22Or the Cambridge lovers, not.
00:26:24Those are her majesties for state occasions.
00:26:27Her majesty won't mind.
00:26:29Besides, are people not coming tonight expecting to meet a queen?
00:26:34Yes, shouldn't we be giving them one?
00:26:48Oh, God.
00:26:50Oh, God.
00:26:59Oh, God.
00:26:59Oh, God.
00:27:05Oh, God.
00:27:11your excellencies i'm delighted to be here tonight deputizing for my sister the queen
00:27:19who was fortunate enough to be on her travels somewhere between bermuda jamaica and fiji
00:27:26distracted no doubt by waving fields of sugarcane and graceful palms
00:27:34by deep blue water beyond white coral sands by dramatic green hills thick with vegetation
00:27:42and the subtle rhythms of dancing and singing but more vivid more brilliant even than the colors
00:27:52of those lovely islands or the echoes of that music or the welcome of cheerful and friendly
00:27:59people wherever my sister may travel is what i see as i look out from this stage tonight
00:28:07as i look out at all of you tonight my don't you all look wonderful
00:28:15and shimmering when positively exotic and what fine company we have here tonight our our ambassador to

00:29:10wonderful evening thank you
00:29:26it felt so good my sister talks all the time about how she isn't suited to it well i was

00:30:27what's the matter

00:30:45perhaps
00:30:47is that awful of me yes well now you know you didn't marry a saint
00:30:52and you learn so i wouldn't worry i have great faith in her
00:30:55in margaret her ability to mess things up in the long run
00:31:00or outshine me and mess things up and outshine me
00:31:14that's unlike you
00:31:24you know there's a danger we might be over doing it perhaps it would be prudent to take a few
00:31:32things

00:31:46no no no we keep every appointment

00:32:25so
00:32:31so
00:32:32so
00:32:32I don't know.
00:33:29I don't know.
00:33:43I don't know.
00:33:59I don't know.
00:34:00I don't know.
00:34:10I don't know.
00:34:26I don't know.
00:34:38I don't know.
00:34:45I don't know.
00:35:01I don't know.
00:35:02I don't know.
00:35:06I don't know.
00:35:18I don't know.
00:35:26I don't know.
00:35:32I don't know.
00:35:39I don't know.
00:35:45I don't know.
00:35:47I don't know.
00:35:54It dates back to the mid-17th century.
00:36:00It was in the same family for 14 generations.
00:36:04We born in 1929, my wife and I had been there.
00:36:08Very happy years ago.
00:36:11War came in the nation.
00:36:16The solution is obvious.
00:36:20Stop smiling.
00:36:21No, the trouble is I have the sort of face that if I'm not smiling,
00:36:25then everyone says, oh, isn't she cross?
00:36:28No, that's not...
00:36:29What do you think, Doctor?
00:36:32It's a spasm. The muscles are overworked.
00:36:36Rest ought to fix it, though.
00:36:37Like I said, stop smiling.
00:36:39No. I have an engagement this evening.
00:36:41So what can be done?
00:36:44Well, I could inject the affected area with a relaxant.
00:36:48You'd have to watch yourself with soup, though.
00:36:51You might find you have less control chewing and drinking.
00:36:54And it's not a long-term solution.
00:36:57Oh.
00:36:58All right.
00:36:59I'll have the injection.
00:37:00Good God.
00:37:02Bought and dribble soup all over your dress.
00:37:04Do you know...
00:37:06The other night, I woke up with my right arm out from under the bedclothes.
00:37:10Do you know what I've been doing?
00:37:11I'd been waving to the crowds in my sleep.
00:37:16All right.
00:37:20Hold still, please.
00:37:23Your Majesty.
00:37:36American planes, guns and ammunition are helping the French and Vietnam forces.
00:37:41Russian and Chinese weapons are aiding the Vietnam.
00:37:48Princess Margaret dons white overalls when she visits Calverton Colliery in Nottinghamshire.
00:37:52A visit to the Coalface, a quarter of a mile underground, is included in her tour of the colliery, which
00:37:58is recognised as one of the most modern in Europe.
00:38:01After almost an hour underground, the Princess brings back a souvenir.
00:38:05A piece of coal she hewed herself.
00:38:07Did you, er...
00:38:08Did you, er...
00:38:08Enjoy the mining, Your Royal Highness?
00:38:10I did.
00:38:11Very much.
00:38:11Although it's jolly dusty down there.
00:38:14Some even went into my mouth, but I can assure you, it tastes delicious.
00:38:18When I've experienced the conditions, do you have sympathy for the miners that work there?
00:38:22One could fail to have sympathy for anyone who has to spend their working life down there.
00:38:27It's intolerably dark and hot and cramped.
00:38:31To my eyes, it seems conditions are still very perilous for these poor brave men who work underground for so
00:38:37very little.
00:38:38And, er, what would you say to the authorities regarding the matter?
00:38:42Ah.
00:38:43No, I have nothing further to say.
00:38:45Who's the coal for?
00:38:50I have someone very special in mind.
00:38:54Group Captain Townsend?
00:38:58Are you missing him?
00:39:01Yes, I am.
00:39:02Very much.
00:39:04And are you missing your sister, Her Majesty the Queen?
00:39:09Not quite as much, no.
00:39:12But...
00:39:22Why not did you say that?
00:39:24What?
00:39:24That you missed me.
00:39:25I did.
00:39:26I do.
00:39:27I know, but that wasn't wise.
00:39:29Why not?
00:39:32Darling.
00:39:35You can't use a public occasion.
00:39:37To take a dig at your sister like that.
00:39:40Don't you start too?
00:39:41It's just...
00:39:42The palace won't like it.
00:39:44And we need the palace on our side.
00:39:49Who is it you think you'll be letting down anyway?
00:39:51A koala?
00:39:53This whole thing is a circus.
00:39:55This is a miserable circus.
00:39:59Trudging from town to town.
00:40:00You know, the dancing bears.
00:40:07What are you doing?
00:40:08No, I'm taking back this small pleasure.
00:40:10You've taken away too much.
00:40:11No, no, no.
00:40:12Go see for Kendall.
00:40:15Yeah.
00:40:16Forty a day your father smoked and now I know why.
00:40:18Poor bastard.
00:40:19You know, he probably took one look at this tour and thought,
00:40:21Do you know what?
00:40:22I'll be better off with cancer.
00:40:24Shut up.
00:40:28What is it you're trying to prove?
00:40:30What is it you want to hear him say?
00:40:34Bravo, Lilibet.
00:40:36Managed the whole tour.
00:40:38Lilibet never lets you down.
00:40:40Ticked every box.
00:40:43Never put a foot wrong.
00:40:45Now, finally, I love you more than I love Margaret.
00:40:49Get out!
00:40:50Get out!
00:40:51Get out!
00:40:56Don't you dare!
00:40:57I'm back here!
00:40:58Christ!
00:41:13I could lie for you.
00:41:19What'd you like to make a place where a man needs to die?
00:41:22Good luck!
00:41:24Good luck!
00:41:30I order to die.
00:41:35Let me go and have a work.
00:41:37No.
00:41:43I'll do it.
00:41:52I'm sorry for that little interlude.
00:41:57I'm sure it must happen in every marriage.
00:42:02Now, what would you like me to do for your newsreel?
00:42:29Another gift for your majesty.
00:42:38Your royal highness, when you appear in public, performing official duties, you are not you.
00:42:46Of course I am me.
00:42:47Expressing political opinions about working conditions in mines, that business at Sadler's Wells.
00:42:55And no one wants you to be you. They want you to be it.
00:42:58A statue. A thing.
00:43:01The crown. That's what they've come to see. Not you.
00:43:05The minute you become yourself, you shatter the illusion. Break the spell.
00:43:11What people want is someone to inhabit it.
00:43:15Not be frightened of it. Make it flesh and blood. Bring it to life.
00:43:19Your uncle, Edward VIII, threatened to do just that.
00:43:23Impose his individuality on the institution. Bring it to life.
00:43:28And he almost destroyed it in the process.
00:43:31You can't seriously be comparing this to the abdication.
00:43:34No, but I have decided that all remaining royal engagements in the queen's absence should be carried out by the
00:43:41queen mother.
00:43:44My mother is in Scotland.
00:43:46So I gather. But I've sent someone to bring her back.
00:43:51Right away.
00:43:54Your royal highness.
00:44:02You said eleven.
00:44:03What time is it now?
00:44:05Well, it's nearly noon.
00:44:07Goodness. And I settled in such good time.
00:44:11Did you come along the coast?
00:44:13I did.
00:44:14You didn't factor in the wind.
00:44:17You were into the wind this morning.
00:44:20Wasn't I just?
00:44:21The good news is you'll fly back.
00:44:30I've, um, I've had a chance to do some thinking.
00:44:35I've spoken to my lawyers and I've come up with a sum that I think is a fair price for
00:44:41this magnificently situated castle.
00:44:44Yes, yes, go on.
00:44:47Brace yourself.
00:44:49One hundred pounds.
00:44:53What?
00:44:54Oh, I'm sorry. Is that too dear?
00:44:58No, it's absurd.
00:45:00On the contrary, it's entirely fair, given it'll end up costing you tens of thousands.
00:45:04Are you sure?
00:45:06No.
00:45:06The question is, are you sure?
00:45:15I am.
00:45:16All right.
00:45:18Congratulations.
00:45:19I hope you'll be very happy here.
00:45:23I have a feeling I will be.
00:45:24I can get the place cleared out inside a week.
00:45:27Oh, only if you've somewhere to go.
00:45:29I, I do.
00:45:30My sister's a few miles down the coast.
00:45:33Now, will I walk you back to the Viners, downwind?
00:45:36That'd be lovely.
00:46:02That'd be lovely.
00:46:06This is all the information that I have.
00:46:12It seems I must go.
00:46:16Oh my God.
00:46:19It's finally come to you.
00:46:23Why on earth didn't you say, ma'am?
00:46:27Because people always make such a fuss.
00:46:31And stop being themselves.
00:46:35And you'd have doubled the price.
00:46:39Spoken like a true Scots woman.
00:47:12Now, my speech at the letter, there was one adjustment that I would like to make.
00:47:18I would like to refer to Malta as my island of happy memories.
00:47:22Mm-hmm.
00:47:26Very good, then.
00:47:28I shall have the text re-typed for your approval.
00:47:37Now, there do remain some security concerns about Gibraltar.
00:47:42What concerns?
00:47:44Death threats are sent to all the leaders of the major political parties,
00:47:49telling them that if our tour were to go to Gibraltar,
00:47:53our safety can't be guaranteed.
00:47:56I told them we should pull out.
00:47:59Why?
00:48:00You mean why?
00:48:01Because I don't much fancy shuffling the streets of Gibraltar like a sitting duck.
00:48:07No.
00:48:09Pulling out at this late hour will make us look weak.
00:48:12And it would be a great disappointment to the people of Gibraltar.
00:48:15I say we go.
00:48:16I say we don't.
00:48:24I am aware that I am surrounded by people who feel that they could do the job better.
00:48:32Strong people with powerful characters.
00:48:36More natural leaders, perhaps better suited to leading from the front, making a mark.
00:48:41But for better or worse, the crown has landed on my head.
00:48:45And I say we go.
00:48:55The Royal Yacht Britannia sails towards Gibraltar.
00:48:59Visible on deck, Her Majesty the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh.
00:49:03Accompanying Britannia, 15 A-class destroyers from the Mediterranean Sea.
00:49:12A powerful signal to the people of Gibraltar of the Queen and the British Empire's enduring support.
00:49:20Mater.
00:49:43Alison Varkin, 15 A-class destroyers from theaube.
00:49:45A bless and mercen águaaki has already marked her majesty as a woman of death.
00:49:51A return to London after 50,000 miles by air, land and sea is a triumph of diplomacy at
00:49:59a challenging time for the Empire.
00:50:02Not a single item of the enormous list of engagements has been missed.
00:50:09Millions have seen and eaten their queen as she leaves the Commonwealth charmed and
00:50:14united.
00:50:18It is already clear that Her Majesty will occupy a place among the famous queens of history
00:50:25and promises a renewed role for Britain in the modern world.
00:50:30The Empire secure across the four corners of the earth, marking the start of a new Elizabethan age.
00:50:4424 o'clock in 50,000 miles away.
00:50:49Hello.
00:50:54Yes!
00:51:02Ma, the Prime Minister's arrived.
00:51:06Thank you .
00:51:07I'm sorry!

00:51:16The Prime Minister, Your Majesty.
00:51:21Congratulations, Your Majesty.
00:51:23Thank you, Wester.
00:51:24An unqualified tribe.
00:51:26Well, I never escape, I see.
00:51:27It could so easily have gone the other way.
00:51:28Well, but it didn't, and has put us right back where we belong.
00:51:33Higher in fact.
00:51:35And before the tour, our great nation was in danger of losing much of its status, our influence, our standing.
00:51:45Your courage and conviction prevailed.
00:51:50This time, perhaps. But in time they will surely grow tired of it. Grow tired of us.
00:51:56Only if the crown and the people representing the crown make mistakes, errors of judgment.
00:52:05My dear sister.
00:52:07Yes.
00:52:09What would you have me do?
00:52:20Thank you, ma'am. Your majesty, her royal highness is on her way.
00:52:27I'll give that to you, my lord.
00:52:28It's all right. I have been here before.
00:52:32Do you know the way?
00:52:45What's in there?
00:52:47Yes, ma'am.
00:53:09Goodness.
00:53:23what have i done to deserve this the brief was simple perform minor ceremonial tasks
00:53:31with a minimum of fuss not end up all over the newspapers i can't help it if they want to
00:53:37write
00:53:37about me it would help if you didn't give them what they crave character and excitement instability
00:53:43and drama well at least i give them something you give them nothing i give them silence silence is
00:53:50nothing it's the absence of noise emptiness blank page which allows others to shine but the monarchy
00:53:57should shine the monarchy yes not the monarch reparations will need to be made to whom
00:54:08to the people you offended a general to whom when asked if you'd like to dance you replied
00:54:15yes but not with you i believe there was also a debutante who you managed to make cry
00:54:20and the dancers of sadler's wells whom you refused to meet after arriving late for the performance
00:54:26you showed individuality and that made people panic they don't want individuality the last
00:54:34person who showed character almost took the ship down
00:54:40you are enjoying this not a bit yes you are
00:54:49admonishing your unruly young sister
00:54:55have you ever thought how it must be for me many times at great length wistfully you have a role
00:55:01a clear set of rules all you have to do is follow them margaret you have freedom
00:55:07all you have to do is enjoy it you think that i'm free to be constantly in your shadow
00:55:13constantly the overlooked one it looks like heaven to me what you have looks like heaven to me
00:55:26two sisters who envy one another you wouldn't be the first
00:55:38pride and joy
00:55:42remember what papa called us
00:55:48yes elizabeth is my pride and margaret is my joy
00:55:53but margaret is my joy
00:55:58i'm sorry i have to claim a few victories i'm left with
00:56:03and we're not disputing it surely
00:56:07what
00:56:07that i was papa's favorite
00:56:17it's a cruel truth to it isn't it
00:56:21there are two sisters so close in age that
00:56:24the more one becomes one thing the more the other
00:56:27necessarily becomes the opposite
00:56:30vice versa it's the way of things if one is the queen must be the source of
00:56:37honor and all that is good the other necessarily becomes the focus of the most creative malice
00:56:47evil sister
00:56:49evil sister no one says you're evil next to you will always be evil
00:57:05and yet you spend so much time telling me that i'm a lesser thing
00:57:12only to give myself a moment's peace
00:57:26would you consider doing it for me
00:57:28just from time to time
00:57:30what
00:57:31putting a foot wrong
00:57:33the occasional mistake
00:57:35let the side down
00:57:38so i might not be so conspicuous a failure by comparison
