00:02:14That's not a proposal. I can't do that without my mother's permission.
00:02:18But I realise more than anything in the world, I want you to be my wife.
00:02:30That's a complete disaster.
00:02:32He is. Including the Prime Minister's claim that Saddam's apparently non-existent weapons could be deployed within 45 minutes.
00:02:40So the Scots cart will be there.
00:02:44Rest on the platform near the High Older.
00:02:53Good morning, gentlemen.
00:02:55Good morning, ma'am.
00:02:55Good morning.
00:02:56Your Majesty, the purpose of this meeting is,
00:03:00and I should say it's not because we have any reason to be fearful...
00:03:03Oh, get on with it, David.
00:03:05...that we might really step up our planning of Operation London Bridge.
00:03:10That's the code name for your funeral, ma'am.
00:03:13We know what it is, Edward.
00:03:15Is that really necessary?
00:03:17I recently got a clean bill of health, and in terms of age, I'm only...
00:03:2080.
00:03:21Yes, all right. Not quite.
00:03:23A matter of months.
00:03:25Simply for reasons of prudence and good order.
00:03:27Well, in which case, why not start with the Duke of Edinburgh?
00:03:30He's older than me.
00:03:31And statistically, men tend to die earlier.
00:03:34Well, that's true.
00:03:34And that's why we've been working on mine for years.
00:03:38Operation Forth Bridge.
00:03:40Oh.
00:03:40No, don't say that.
00:03:41Why?
00:03:42It's so sad.
00:03:44Oh, no.
00:03:46No, it's...
00:03:46I'm finding it all rather stimulating.
00:03:49You might, too.
00:03:51It's surprising what it all stirs up.
00:03:53Isn't it, Edward?
00:03:54So, with your permission, ma'am, can we make a start?
00:03:57Let's go.
00:04:16As a template, we've used the funeral of the late King George VI.
00:04:20We would call on an estimated 6,000 military personnel at the procession.
00:04:26A tri-service parade, embracing each of the armed services,
00:04:31alongside representatives from the 15 other Commonwealth realms.
00:04:36The gun carriage will be drawn by the sovereign's guard.
00:04:40They will march at the customary rhythm of certain places.
00:05:13The gun隨ant �gado, making each of our
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. That 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 making happy the person who's next in line.
00:09:24That surely is in all our interests.
00:09:38What is he doing?
00:09:41Planning his funeral.
00:09:44He wants that as his hearse.
00:09:50You always said, Mummy, that you couldn't do the job without Papa by your side.
00:09:57That he's your strength and stay.
00:10:02And Camilla is my strength.
00:10:04And my stay.
00:10:08I couldn't do it without her.
00:10:11I will reflect on it.
00:10:14Take advice.
00:10:17And give you an answer soon.
00:10:41I think it will probably be fine.
00:10:50You all have in front of you a first draft of the plans for London Bridge.
00:10:55Oh, for heaven's sake.
00:10:57Oh, yes. A little heavy at the moment, ma'am.
00:10:59But it will shrink down nicely as you begin to express your preferences.
00:11:03My preference would be a quiet service in Scotland out of sight and over in 20 minutes.
00:11:07Yes. Perfectly understandable.
00:11:10But this is the funeral of what we expect to be the longest serving monarch in history.
00:11:14People will want to celebrate your reign and mark the end of an era.
00:11:18Not just here, but all around the world.
00:11:20So, I'd like to start with the logistical contingencies depending upon where the,
00:11:25forgive me, ma'am, the death actually occurs.
00:11:30If it's abroad, ma'am, or here in the United Kingdom.
00:11:34I shall do my best to keep it local.
00:11:37Thank you, ma'am.
00:11:39The first chapter is, if the event occurs on a foreign tour, please turn to page 10.
00:11:53Are you guys going to Harry Meade's birthday party?
00:11:56Definitely.
00:11:57When is it?
00:11:58Next week.
00:11:59Should be good.
00:12:00250 people going.
00:12:03Fancy dress.
00:12:04I hate fancy dress.
00:12:05You have to rent a costume which invariably stinks of other people's BO.
00:12:09Fucking royal twat.
00:12:12Meet my brother, life and soul.
00:12:15What's the theme?
00:12:17Colonials and natives.
00:12:18Then there's that.
00:12:21You think they could have picked a more offensive theme?
00:12:23Mate, you're such an undergraduate now.
00:12:25You'd have never said that before you went to uni.
00:12:27Now I am saying it.
00:12:28Cliché.
00:12:29That's me, dad.
00:12:29I'm out.
00:12:30Fucking idiot.
00:12:31Come on, lad.
00:12:32You know, you can't fucking shoot me.
00:12:35Fuck you.
00:12:36Fuck the race.
00:12:37Or hit him.
00:12:38Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.
00:12:40Click his arse.
00:12:42Oh, my God.
00:12:45Useful.
00:12:46Your Royal Highnesses, I just had a call from the Queen's private secretary.
00:12:52Can you come down, please?
00:12:54It's never good when they come in packs.
00:12:59Yeah.
00:12:59I just had a call from the Queen's private secretary.
00:13:29My lord bishops, I asked you all here today because the Prince of Wales has requested my permission to marry
00:13:38Mrs. Parker Bowles.
00:13:42And 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.
00:13:59Or, one suspects, popular.
00:14:02Why? I 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 was responsible for the breakdown of a royal marriage.
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.
00:15:04It's more a question of signals, appearances.
00:15:09A condition of the blessing could be some form of atonement.
00:15:14Quite so. Some acknowledgment 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.
00:16:04And 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 will see you now.
00:16:37Come on, hurry.
00:16:38Come on.
00:16:39Hurry.
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?
00:17:25I knew it.
00:17:28Why can't they just carry on as they are?
00:17:29Because 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, isn't he, one day?
00:18:14Yes.
00:18:14Plus, then he might finally shut up about it all.
00:18:20So...
00:18:22Is that a yes?
00:18:25Yes.
00:18:28I didn't want to give my blessing until you had given yours.
00:18:36Yes, good.
00:18:44Yes?
00:18:46Ah, yes, of course.
00:18:48It's the queen.
00:18:50You're wrong, Harvest.
00:18:51Yes.
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. I'm just being a realist.
00:19:12And changing your tune. I'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.
00:19:19I don't expect you to understand what that feels like.
00:19:24Congratulations.
00:19:28Thank you, Mummy.
00:19:36It's done.
00:19:55It's...
00:20:00It's...
00:20:01I don't know what that feels like.
00:20:06It's done.
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, all 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, good night.
00:22:02Good night.
00:22:32All right.
00:22:35Wait. Thank you.
00:23:06Your Majesty, you asked to see me.
00:23:09I did. I hope you know how much everyone appreciates your beautiful music every day.
00:23:16I don't mind telling you. There 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. Lord 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 that I particularly like.
00:24:15It's sleep, dearie sleep.
00:24:18Will you play it for me?
00:24:25What now?
00:24:26Why not?
00:24:27Inside.
00:24:29It's a hell of a din, ma'am.
00:24:31It's not a din to me.
00:24:34It's not a din to me.
00:24:37It's not a din to me.
00:24:41It's not a din to me.
00:24:43It's not a din to me.
00:24:45It's not a din to me.
00:24:52It's not a din to me.
00:24:53It's not a din to me.
00:24:54It's not a din to me.
00:24:54It's not a din to me.
00:24:54It's not a din to me.
00:24:55It's not a din to me.
00:24:57It's not a din to me.
00:25:01It's not a din to me.
00:25:23¶¶
00:25:25¶ Soldier, lie down on your wee pickle store ¶¶
00:25:38¶ It's not very broad ¶¶
00:25:43¶ And it's not very broad ¶¶
00:25:47¶ But dearie, it's better than nothing ¶¶
00:25:54¶ It's hard ¶¶
00:25:57¶ Sleep, dearie, sleep ¶¶
00:26:32¶¶
00:26:32Ta-da! Here we go!
00:26:35What about an astronaut?
00:26:36Or a cowboy?
00:26:38No, he's more of a goody-goody. Or a dick.
00:26:40I'm going as a lion.
00:26:41As a lion king.
00:26:43Oh, R of R.
00:26:44I'm going to go. What 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.
00:27:00Isn'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.
00:27:11Your brother.
00:27:13Where's God?
00:27:14Oh, you're gone.
00:27:18Hello!
00:27:20Who stole my gandruff?
00:27:25That's my grandmother.
00:27:26I don't like the way you move.
00:27:27NOOOO!
00:27:34Hello.
00:27:35Hello, darling.
00:27:36The Queen is here.
00:27:38Hello!
00:27:39How are you doing?
00:27:40How are you doing?
00:27:42How are you doing?
00:27:43This is incredible.
00:27:48Bremen.
00:27:49What are you doing?
00:27:49What am I doing?
00:27:50I'm being fat.
00:27:52What's going on?
00:27:53Oh, I'm a woah, I'm a bambi.
00:27:55Where are you doing?
00:27:56Guy. Guy.
00:27:59That's right.
00:28:00Is he going up into the stage?
00:28:01Excuse me.
00:28:12I want to be free.
00:28:17I want to be free.
00:28:21I want to break free from your lies.
00:28:24You're still, still, I'm still sweating me.
00:28:28I want to be free.
00:29:22What's up?
00:29:45Oh, shit.
00:29:59Oh, Harry.
00:30:07Fuck!
00:30:09Fuck!
00:30:12Fuck!
00:30:14Fuck.
00:30:19Fuck!
00:30:53I 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.
00:31:15Well, that's a subject that's been coming up a lot recently.
00:31:34You've got to thread it through.
00:31:39It's all right.
00:31:40I think I remember.
00:31:41I remember.
00:31:54Oh, that's it.
00:31:55That'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.
00:32:02That's it.
00:32:03That's it.
00:32:06No, why haven't it gone through?
00:32:14It's meant to go under here.
00:32:15It hasn't.
00:32:18That's it.
00:32:19Right about it.
00:32:20Stop.
00:32:22No, no, no.
00:32:22No, no.
00:35:23Yes, here I still am.
00:35:26No breakfast.
00:35:28Wasn't hungry.
00:35:29Not like you.
00:36:02Harry was foolish to go to that party dressed in that costume, but he was bloody unlucky
00:36:08that a fellow guest 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.
00:36:17Why?
00:36:19Why?
00:36:19What will it take to get you to understand?
00:36:21Should I draw it in sodding crayon?
00:36:26The 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
00:36:43not prevent Harry entering officer training.
00:36:46Oh, well done.
00:36:47Oh, 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.
00:37:13Well, it might have stirred up for you.
00:37:16No.
00:37:18Right.
00:37:19Well.
00:37:19I'll be off.
00:37:22Duty calls.
00:37:25Ah.
00:37:35New card.
00:37:36Why didn't you tell him?
00:37:41What you've been thinking about?
00:37:42You've been thinking since you first started working on your funeral.
00:37:45In fact, since the golden jubilee.
00:37:48How tired.
00:37:50No, not just tired.
00:37:52Exhausted you are by it all.
00:37:55Years.
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.
00:38:38A bicycle monarchy is not something 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.
00:39:20That's longer than any other queen.
00:39:21Stepping down.
00:39:23Stepping down is the right thing to do.
00:39:26As queen and as a mother.
00:39:28Right.
00:39:29come back.
00:39:32You've been on the throne for the next year.
00:39:32I've been on the throne for the next year.
00:39:32I've been on the throne for her, James.
00:39:32No.
00:39:39I'm just going to stay here.
00:39:40Go back, Steve.
00:39:42I can't wait.
00:40:06Everyone has now agreed on a date for the wedding.
00:40:109th 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.
00:40:39Has 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?
00:40:59That 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.
00:41:25Right.
00:41:25Stabbing me in the back.
00:41:27Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, how many faces does this man have?
00:41:29Boys, you 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 all along.
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.
00:41:41The boys were snapping at each other.
00:41:43Well, 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
00:42:06through.
00:42:07Are they going to blame me, do you think?
00:42:09And hold me responsible for the way they've turned out?
00:42:13Well, being their father, you are responsible.
00:42:17For making it better.
00:42:20As soon as they're through tomorrow, everything will be fine.
00:42:25I do hope so.
00:42:27Anyway, 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 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.
00:44:11Here.
00:44:16Dinner 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.
00:44:47Would you like to know what else I had?
00:44:53That 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 Pa's big day?
00:45:02Because it's the wedding present he most wants.
00:45:07He 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, mate. I wouldn't do that to you.
00:46:00Really?
00:46:02Yeah.
00:46:06Let's go for it.
00:46:32Let's go for it.
00:47:03Let's go for it.
00:47:33Let's go for it.
00:48:02Let's go for it.
00:48:17Let's go for it.
00:48:30Let's go for it.
00:48:57Let's go for it.
00:49:03Let's go for it.
00:49:29Let's go for it.
00:49:44Let's go for it.
00:50:07Let's go for it.
00:50:15Let's go for it.
00:50:17Let's go for it.
00:50:18Let's go for it.
00:50:38Let's go for it.
00:50:47Let's go for it.
00:51:24Let's go for it.
00:51:32Let's go for it.
00:51:32Let's go for it.
00:51:49Let's go for it.
00:52:18Let's go for it.
00:52:26Let's go for it.
00:52:42Let's go for it.
00:53:09Let's go for it.
00:53:28Let's go for it.
00:53:40Let's go for it.
00:53:44Let's go for it.
00:53:48Let's go for it.
00:53:50Let's go for it.
00:53:54Let's go for it.
00:54:03Let's go for it.
00:54:08Let's go for it.
00:54:10Amen.
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.
00:56:05Roy 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 chapel 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.
00:58:06Yes, but your good cheer and warm humanity work wonderfully in your favour, both as a strength and stay with
00:58:17the Prince of Wales, and as an addition to this family.
00:58:25Thank 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!
00:58:41Charles and Camilla.

01:02:15Yes. Here I still am.
01:02:24Good day, I think.
01:02:26Oh, yes. I 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, joyriding, ramraiding.
01:02:36Give Chief Constable Dead something to worry about after all.
01:02:39Well 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. Because those that come after you are not remotely ready to take over.
01:03:10No, but I wasn't either. Remember? I was so young.
01:03:13Oh, no, no. You 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.
01:04:20Well, but the party's over.
01:04:25The good news is that while Rome burns and the temple falls, we will sleep, dearie sleep.
01:04:37Oh, you looked.
01:04:41Yes.
01:04:44A piper's lament.
01:04:47Your sole musical choice.
01:04:50It's very you.
01:04:52And your coffin being driven in an old Land Rover is very you.
01:04:57Oh, you looked.
01:04:59I did.
01:05:03Well.
01:05:10I'll leave you to it.
01:05:12Say one for me.
01:05:43I'll leave you to it.
01:05:44Bye.
01:05:44Bye.
01:05:48Bye.
01:05:53Bye.
