00:07Now, Anne, what's this?
00:09A penguin.
00:10Very good.
00:11And Charles, who do you suppose is surrounded by penguins at the moment?
00:15Daddy.
00:15Yes, that's right.
00:17That's because he's in the Antarctic.
00:18And from there, he goes to the South Shetland Islands,
00:21and then he goes on to the Falkland Islands,
00:24and then goes all the way up here to Ascension Island.
00:28Now, all these are British overseas territories,
00:30and they have to be visited every once in a while,
00:32so they don't feel neglected or forgotten.
00:34They don't get any silly ideas like becoming independent.
00:37Right, you brush your teeth?
00:38Yes.
00:39Good.
00:39Have you said your prayers?
00:40Yes.
00:40Dolly good.
00:41Right.
00:41Night-night.
00:42Night-night, Mummy.
00:45Oh, we might put a picture of the Duke of Edinburgh by the children's bed,
00:49so they recognise him when he gets back.
00:51Five months is a long time at that age.
00:58Oh, what's that?
01:00From his Royal Highness, ma'am.
01:02Footage from the Royal Tour.
01:04How nice.
01:07We might watch that instead of our next film.
01:29The Royal Highness, ma'am.
01:50Hanson 3742.
01:53Tommy.
03:41It's wonderful to be back amongst you.
03:45As you know, I went away to concentrate on my health.
03:51I'm now fully fit to resume my duties.
04:01Quiet, everyone.
04:02Sit down.
04:03Come on.
04:04Now, he's sent some notes to accompany the footage, so I'll read aloud.
04:15Hello, all of you.
04:16Hello.
04:18Hello, Daddy.
04:19Hello, Daddy.
04:20I can picture you all perfectly sitting there, wishing it was Creature from the Black Lagoon.
04:26But instead, this is just boring old me arriving at King George Island.
04:35Look!
04:37A hundred miles off the coast of Antarctica.
04:40There's your daddy.
04:41Is that Daddy?
04:43And nestled between the white bones of ancient Wales.
04:47Here we've made some new friends, and Mike was rather smitten.
04:51Oh, he's got a beard.
04:53Yes, yes, they're all grown beards.
04:55Makes them look a bit shifty.
04:57Oh, no, don't say that.
04:58Makes them look like an explorer.
05:05What's that?
05:05Oh, yes, this is very funny, Molly.
05:07We've even installed some signage so we can find our way home.
05:12Oh, Buckingham Palace.
05:14Oh, that's good.
05:15I like that.
05:16It's a bit of a commute to the office, though.
05:31Luckily, we found some friends for company, the British Hunting Aerosurvey Teams, who make excellent tennis companions.
05:39Oh, look, they're all playing tennis.
05:41Isn't that silly?
05:43What does that mean?
05:44Some things about huskies that you never knew.
05:47They have eyes of different colours.
05:49Oh, like the Kaiser.
05:51Oh, mommy.
05:53But most of all, they really, really like tennis balls.
05:58Yes, we can see that.
05:59And they have claws to ensure they don't slip on the ice.
06:02Oh, look, now he looks on one.
06:11Joining our family of animals are the penguins and seals,
06:16who send their love to you all.
06:18As do I.
06:21Your loving papa and husband.
06:27Philip.
06:48Good morning.
06:53Tommy.
06:56Your majesty.
06:57I thought you were supposed to be in happy retirement.
07:00I am, ma'am.
07:01Well, then what on earth are you doing here?
07:03Oh, dear.
07:05Either you miss the place more than you could bear, which would be...
07:07Tragic.
07:08Yes.
07:09Well, there's a serious problem and you've been called in to help.
07:12Just a routine matter with Colonel Adil.
07:15It's hardly routine if you send one of the royal cars.
07:19Well, in actual fact, that's my car.
07:21We gave you a car?
07:23You did, ma'am.
07:24As part of the farewell package.
07:26Well, not the driver too, surely.
07:27The driver too?
07:30Was that me?
07:31I believe so.
07:33Well, you've always held a very special place in all of our hearts, Tommy.
07:37Anyway, I must go.
07:39Windsor, ma'am?
07:40No, Sandrium.
07:42Michael's rearranged a few things to give me a couple of days off.
07:45Quite right.
07:57You did well to bring this to me, Michael.
08:01I've served three generations of the royal family, four monarchs, and a good many things
08:09to protect them, mostly from themselves.
08:12But this is the first time, Iceland-Durber, to save someone else's marriage in order to
08:19safeguard the crown.
08:21Not that we give a fig about the Parkers or their happiness, you understand?
08:25Not a fig, Tommy.
08:26Not a fig.
08:26Not a fig.
08:28Not a fig.
08:29Not a fig.
08:55Dear Philip, I cannot tell you how much we enjoyed watching the film you sent.
09:02It was lovely to set eyes on you again.
09:06And the children were very impressed by the whales and penguins.
09:11You looked very handsome, I thought, in your wailing outfit.
09:16And a suit, too.
09:20And I could never forget what my grandmother said to me about being married to a man with this.
09:29She goes on, but actually, no, I'm not going to repeat that.
09:32Come on!
09:36Come on!
09:40I think we can safely say a very, very warm welcome awaited royal hands of the day.
10:10Good morning.
10:12Good morning.
10:13Good morning, sir.
10:15Good morning.
10:16First of all, I must thank you for the way in which you've all carried on without.
10:24And for the manner in which Rab has very competently stood in for me in my absence.
10:30You've kept me informed of all the major decisions that had to be taken.
10:35In all these months, we have been a united government.
10:40And we shall remain a united government.
10:44But we're not a united government, are we, Anthony?
10:48The war you insisted on has left us as divided as Caesar and Pompey and the country in chaos.
10:55There is no petrol in the pumps. There are no tins on the shelves.
10:58Our allies are aligned against us. Our international reputation is in tatters.
11:04How adroitly your weathervane spins, Harold.
11:10You were for the war, as I remember.
11:15Only as long as it was legal.
11:19You.
11:22Liar.
11:27Liar.
11:30You wanted it every bit as much as I did.
11:37Torn off NASA's scalp with your own fingernails given the chance.
11:42Taking the oil from that canal and set the Middle East ablaze.
11:45You've lost the trust of the people and of the party.
11:49It's the end of the road.
11:51The road?
11:53Would you willingly let me down?
12:01And would you abandon me?
12:05Here?
12:10Hmm?
12:22All of you.
12:27Come now, Anthony.
12:30You know as well as I.
12:35There is no justice in politics.
12:38One, two, three!
12:42I'm out.
12:44I'll hold it.
12:44From here, Larrar!
12:47Kinga!
12:50Kinga!
12:51Kinga!
12:52Kinga!
12:52Kinga!
12:53Kinga!
12:54Kinga!
12:54Kinga!
12:55Kinga!
12:56Kinga!
12:57Kinga!
12:58Kinga!
12:59Captain Lascles?
13:02Mrs. Parker.
13:04What brings you here?
13:06Oh, a retired man must make friends with all the good reading spots in London.
13:13What are you reading, may I ask? Tell me that it's romantic poetry.
13:17Yeah, military history. The campaigns of Napoleon.
13:23Your son?
13:25Lieutenant Commander Parker must be very proud.
13:27He might be, if he knew what the children looked like.
13:31He's away again, on tour.
13:33You have my sympathy.
13:35I know from my own wife how difficult that can be, being left alone with the children for days, sometimes
13:41weeks on end.
13:43Well, I'm sure that strong marriages find a way through it.
13:47I'm afraid it's broken, Ars.
13:50I am sad to hear that.
13:53But, might I ask you to hold off on any instruction or public announcement just a little while longer?
14:00As we both know, the Duke of Edinburgh is performing important royal duties on this tour,
14:05and we wouldn't want any story breaking in the newspapers that might undermine his efforts.
14:13or impugn the royal marriage.
14:17That's what you came here for, isn't it?
14:20This wasn't a coincidence at all.
14:22You came here because you knew it's where I'd be,
14:25and you wanted to put in a word on their behalf.
14:28It's pathetic.
14:30Still there round-the-clock, Lackey, even in retirement.
14:55Sorry to disturb you, ma'am.
14:56I've just had a call from Dining Street.
14:59The Prime Minister has requested an audience as a matter of urgency.
15:03He's on the train.
15:05He will be with us by 3 p.m.
15:08He's on the train.
15:23He's on the train.
15:24He's on the train.
15:25He's on the train.
15:27He's on the train.
15:28He's on the train.
15:30He's on the train.
15:31He's on the train.
15:32He's on the train.
15:33He's on the train.
15:34He's on the train.
15:35He's on the train.
15:36He's on the train.
15:36He's on the train.
15:36He's on the train.
15:36Enough! Enough! Enough! Enough! Enough!
16:19Enough! Enough! Enough!
16:36Enough! Enough! Enough!
16:44Enough! Enough!
16:48Of course, I asked for second opinions. I asked for third opinions.
16:53I implored them to let me carry on.
16:56But I'm afraid the doctors were of one voice, one mind.
17:01The time has come to put my health above the country.
17:06And to offer you my resignation.
17:19I'm sorry if I disappointed you.
17:26Did I suggest that you had?
17:28No, but I... I think you thought it.
17:39I...
17:44I did think that the decision to go to war was rushed.
17:50And I was sorry to see you lie to the house when you told them that you had no prior
17:55knowledge of the Israeli's intentions.
17:59We both know that to be untrue.
18:02But, wrong though it was, I did have sympathy for you.
18:10To have waited in the wings for so long.
18:13And to have supported a great man like Winston so...
18:18So patiently, so loyally.
18:22And then to finally have your opportunity to measure yourself against him.
18:29To do nothing is often the best course of action.
18:35But I know from personal experience how frustrating it can be.
18:42History was not made by those who did nothing.
18:49So I suppose it's only natural that ambitious men, driven men, want to go down in history.
18:58Or make history by going down.
19:29I do think the time has now come where we have no option but to tell Her Majesty about the
19:34Parker Divorce.
19:35And to warn her that regardless of how blameless the Duke of Edinburgh is or isn't in the matter,
19:42that newspapers will be newspapers and questions will now inevitably be asked about the state of the royal marriage.
19:48Hmm.
19:52I sense trepidation, Michael.
19:55If you'd rather, I can always handle it myself.
19:57No, I'll take care of this.
20:00Try to find a moment on the train to mention Her Majesty.
20:04Good luck, Michael.
20:13Sorry to disturb you, man.
20:15The telegram arrived from Mount Salisbury.
20:18The recommendation is that the surrounding successor should be Mr. McMenham.
20:23Of course.
20:31Yes, what is it, Michael?
20:32Ah, it's just to say, and we could, of course, discuss this on our return to the palace if Her
20:39Majesty prefers.
20:41No, do sit down, Michael.
20:47Well, it seems that Mrs. Parker, who is the wife of Lieutenant Commander Parker...
20:56Yes, I know who Eileen is.
20:59Um, she has decided to sue her husband for divorce.
21:07Goodness.
21:09Is that what you wanted to talk to me about?
21:11Yes.
21:12Um, and that while, of course, there is no suggestion whatsoever of any impropriety on the part of His Royal
21:21Highness the Duke of Edinburgh, we should perhaps be bracing ourselves for one or two irritating headlines.
21:27Why?
21:28Why?
21:29Whatever for?
21:30What is it that she's alleging?
21:33Cruelty, unlawful desertion, and, uh, adultery.
21:42We're just aware of the fact that Lieutenant Commander Parker is His Royal Highness's private secretary, a close friend, and
21:50there is this letter, I believe.
21:53A letter?
21:56Written by Lieutenant Commander Parker to his fellow members of the lunch club, bragging about exploits on the royal tour.
22:06What sort of exploits?
22:16I don't need an answer to that question.
22:18Thank you, Michael.
22:20Thank you, Ma'am.
23:00Mr. McMillan, Your Majesty.
23:10Your Majesty.
23:13I gather soundings have been taken, and that you have been chosen by your colleagues as the man most able
23:20to unite the government and lead this country following St. Anthony's resignation.
23:24Yes, ma'am.
23:27Congratulations.
23:31Although I fear you have inherited something of a poisoned chalice.
23:35It's true.
23:36The storm is now raging against us.
23:40With Eden's War, we've discarded the moral advantage or any goodwill we once held.
23:48Not to mention the dire economic situation.
23:52It would have been quite ruinous.
23:54But it wasn't just Eden's War, was it?
23:59It was a war prosecuted by a government of which you, as Chancellor, were a major constituent part.
24:08I also seem to remember that you were one of the loudest voices in support of the war in the
24:14beginning.
24:17One always has to accept one's own part, I believe.
24:24In any mess.
24:32Prime Minister.
24:34Your Majesty.
24:53Michael.
24:55Could you ask them to send around one of the cars?
24:58The emails are just charging us.
25:00What's happening?
25:03I give a pass.
25:04I'm not there.
25:24I'm not there.
25:25Okay.
25:25In the coming location.
25:26Go ahead.
25:27All right, Mr. David.
25:44All right.
25:46Yeah, Mehmet.
26:03What were you thinking?
26:06You know the rules.
26:08No letters to anyone.
26:12I told Baron to be discreet.
26:18But somehow the letter got back to Eileen.
26:20And now she has ridden to the palace.
26:22Yes, you have notice of her intention to sue me, Footforce.
26:33Which means you've got that you-know-who.
26:38Yes.
26:40Well, I think we have to assume so.
27:03Good morning.
27:04Mm-hmm.
27:32I remember how we used to do this.
27:34My dad went as Sometimes...
27:34Malta go grocery shopping together feels like a long time ago the reason I came
27:50here today is because I heard with great sadness their difficulties in your
28:02marriage and I would like to know if there's anything that I or anyone else
28:06can do to help my marriage to Mike is beyond help I see our separation has
28:13been inevitable for some time I had intended to divorce Mike years ago but
28:18because of the attention surrounding group captain Townsend and princess
28:22Margaret I decided to hold back but that was then this is now what's changed
28:35nothing has changed that's the problem just got worse and while some women may
28:42elect to put up with this sort of humiliation I simply have too much
28:46respect for myself and my children to bear it I'm afraid I don't know what
28:53you're talking about
29:09I'm read this
29:36don't bury it ma'am sweep it away it's there black and white
29:54might I ask you a favor
29:58would you hold off your announcement just while we work out what to do in in light
30:02of this I've had enough of favors to you people my entire adult life has been favors
30:09to you you people aren't even remotely aware of the cost of the damage to
30:15families and marriages in your service I've instructed a solicitor that's my
30:20decision
30:30gentlemen I would like to make a brief statement on behalf of my client mrs. Eileen Parker
30:39having endured an unhappy marriage for some years now I have come to the sad conclusion that a formal
30:46separation is the best option for us both my husband has shown no inclination or enthusiasm for the
30:54responsibilities of parenthood or marriage and divorce remains the only solution thank you
31:08the best option for us both my friend and wife's a friend read all about it read all about it
31:14you
31:17and
31:17and
31:27and
31:28Oh, my God.
31:59Oh, my God.
32:26His view is, yes, the newspaper coverage is bad, but it's not disastrous, and he feels confident in Lord Idaan
32:3448 hours.
32:36He thinks we can ride it out.
32:39You and I both know that's wishful thinking.
32:43I've had my own telegram from London.
32:51I hope you're not going to make this next step difficult for me.
33:08You'll have my resignation first thing.
33:10You'll need it now.
33:28I hereby offer my resignation.
33:34As principal private secretary to the duke of Edinburgh, active immediately.
33:40Accepted.
33:45You've worked for me for long enough.
33:46You know the rules.
33:48We are how it works.
33:51There is no room for mistakes.
33:54There is no room for scandal.
33:56There is no room for humanity.
34:01I think you should probably leave us in Gibraltar.
34:05Might I suggest a policy of no comment on all counts, and especially no letters?
34:13Yes, of course.
34:25There is no room for us.
34:41Mother Parker!
34:43Mother Parker!
34:45Mother Parker!
34:56Mother Parker!
35:09following the resignation of lieutenant commander parker the british press have fallen into line
35:15and been overwhelmingly supportive but i'm afraid the foreign newspapers have not been so kind
35:23yesterday a story broke in the baltimore sun where baltimore mummy claiming that the capital
35:31was awash with rumor that the duke of edinburgh was romantically involved with an unnamed woman
35:37whom he met on a regular basis in the west end apartment of a society photographer baron naem
35:43naem is also president of the thursday club in soho which the duke of edinburgh is a founder
35:50member anyway that story has rather lit the touch paper the british press has caught on
35:56with the manchester guardian reporting not since the first rumors of a romance between the former
36:02king edward the eighth and mrs ernest simpson have americans gobbled up the london dispatches so
36:10avidly go on the sunday pictorial on its front page reminds its readers that the royal family is loved
36:19and envied throughout the world because it is a family time magazine has a headline too much
36:26thursday-ing it goes on to say not since wallace simpson stalked the corridors of buckingham palace
36:33have the eyes of the world been turned so beadily towards those chintz drapes
36:53i say we fly the duke of edinburgh back straight away that's one thought your majesty and it's a good
37:00one
37:00the devil's advocate might argue and i'd be interested to hear michael's thoughts on this
37:06that the duke's early return obviously stage managed by the palace might appear too much of a
37:13concession to the newspapers and pour even more petrol on the flames i would agree
37:23and we don't want that no
37:33so what then
37:43what
37:49yes
37:52the admiral will like a woe sir
37:55it's fine
37:56it's all i think you can come
37:57as a matter of fact he suggested you go to see him sir
38:25thanks sir
38:39admiral
38:41could you come in come on
38:44thank you
38:45buckingham palace has been in touch regarding your reunion photo call with her majesty the queen
38:50with you not me
38:53i'm a commander this ship
38:56i am her husband
38:58it's been agreed that her majesty will fly out to lisbon a day ahead of schedule
39:03as i see it your instructions instructions
39:06are to meet her at the airfield
39:07i've been quite specific for how the reunion is to be managed
39:18thank you
39:33thank you
40:02I don't know.
40:06Tie.
40:11Not that one. One that's fit for an adult.
40:14Those were the instructions.
40:16For God's sake, it has hearts on it.
40:20And the hat, too.
40:21Yes, sir.
40:22I hate hats.
40:23I believe its value on this occasion is not in its being worn, but in its being removed.
40:28Ah.
40:30In a gesture of chivalry and deferredness.
40:33Before I enter the aircraft.
40:35Before you reach the stairs of the aircraft.
41:00Michael, you want a hat.
41:01Go, go, go, go, go!
41:21Dolly.
41:40We'll talk later.
41:43Shall we?
42:11Why do you have to?
42:13How did this happen?
42:15How did this mean for us?
42:18And it's fairly exciting.
42:19The world is going to level to dwell rumours of a risk.
42:41It's all up, I'm back.
42:44Turn it back in!
42:47Turn it back in!
42:47Fire! Fire!
42:53Unprecedented scenes here as photographers from all over the world...
42:57...the Queen and the Jew of Edinburgh,
42:58might have put the world's eyes on board of great...
43:02...now the eyes of the world turn towards the royal yacht,
43:05on which they have sought shelter.
43:09No, Fleur. No, I see.
43:20That was the palace press secretary.
43:25In his view, the steps that we've taken...
43:27The share we've put on.
43:31The steps that we've taken haven't quite done the trick.
43:37The rumours still haven't gone away.
43:49I think we both agree it can't go on like this.
43:58No.
44:15So I thought we might take this opportunity without children, without distraction,
44:25to lay our cards on the table
44:29and talk frankly for once
44:33about what needs to change
44:35to make this marriage work.
44:37All right.
44:38Who goes first?
44:40Stupid question.
44:41I've learned one thing by now, it's that I go second.
44:45If I am to go first,
44:47that's where I'd start.
44:52You're complaining.
44:53My complaining?
44:54It's incessant.
44:55Whining and whinging like a child.
44:57Are you surprised?
44:59The way those god-awful moustaches that run the palace
45:01continue to infantilise me.
45:03Perhaps if you weren't behaving like an infant.
45:04Giving me lists, sending me instructions.
45:06Do this, don't do that.
45:07Wear this, don't wear that.
45:08Say this, don't say that.
45:09Can you imagine anything more humiliating?
45:11Yes.
45:12As a matter of fact, I can.
45:16I've learned more about humiliation in the past few weeks
45:19than I hoped I would in a lifetime.
45:28I've never felt more alone than I have in the past five months.
45:33And why do you think that was?
45:36Because of your behavior.
45:38Because you sent me away.
45:40Yes, and why do you think that was?
45:41I don't know.
45:42You tell me.
45:43Because you're lost.
45:45You're lost in your role, and you're lost in yourself.
45:49Christ.
45:51Look.
45:54I realize that this marriage has turned out to be something quite different to what we both imagined.
46:00Understatement.
46:01And that we both find ourselves in a...
46:05Prison.
46:09In a situation that is unique.
46:15Our marriage is different to any other in the country, because the exit route, which is open to everyone else...
46:21Divorce?
46:22Yes.
46:23Divorce.
46:26It's not an option for us.
46:31Ever.
46:43No.
46:53No.
46:57No.
46:58of the past it's what I need and it's what our family needs the monarchy is
47:11too fragile you keep telling me yourself one more scandal one more national
47:15embarrassment and it would all be over
47:25so what would make it easier on you to be in not out what will it take
47:40you're asking my price
47:45I'm asking what it will take
48:01all right
48:05to make it work
48:08to make it bearable
48:11I'll need the respect and acknowledgement of the dreaded moustaches
48:15please stop calling them that
48:17I'll stop calling them that when they don't all have one
48:19an end to their snobbery and prejudice no more being sniffed at for being a foreigner with a
48:24background nobody understands
48:26will you earn their respect with your behaviour
48:28no no
48:29no
48:30I will earn their respect with the only thing those creatures understand
48:34a gesture a statement something irrefutable that shuts them up and commands their respect
48:38right now I am currently outranked by my eight-year-old son

52:21Oh, give him welcome. This is he, England's greatest son. He that gained a hundred fights or ever lost an
52:31English gun.
52:34Quite magnificent, sir.
52:39Michael, do you have a moment, Cosmo?
52:43No.
52:47Get ready for that.
52:48...
52:54...
52:59...
53:00I'm sorry it's a bit gloomy.
53:29A bit.
53:31Don't live much good around the house without Eileen.
53:34You could have at least put the fire on.
53:36Oi, I provided whiskey.
53:39All right, I've burnt some sausages.
53:41Who do you think you are, royalty?
53:46Here you are.
53:58To our wives and sweethearts.
54:00May they never meet.
54:04What will you do now?
54:06Go back to the Navy?
54:08Yeah.
54:09Going back home.
54:11The Navy is home.
54:13I'm either home.
54:14Australia.
54:16Oh.
54:18Can I come?
54:21I thought everything was all sorted in your world.
54:24As sorted as it can be.
54:25You sell yourself.
54:37She wants more children.
54:40Ouch.
54:41I told her the last thing the world needs is more raw mouths to feed, she said.
54:46You should think of it as a second act.
54:48Of what?
54:49A Greek tragedy?
54:50Of her life as a mother.
54:54That makes sense from her perspective.
54:58Charles isn't a child to her, is he?
55:00He's also the crown.
55:02A living embodiment of who will replace her.
55:06Supersede her.
55:09Loving a child who through no fault of his own represents your own death can't be easy.
55:13No.
55:15Because she is a little cold with him.
55:20She tries her best.
55:22Might be nice to have a couple of kids that are just kids.
55:25Not mortal threats.
55:28Who she can actually love.
55:35What's the airport driver?
55:42What would I do without you?
55:44I'm always at the end of a telephone.
55:46What's it then?
55:48End of an era.
55:55Thank you for that era.
55:56No.
55:59No.
56:00No, Mike.
56:05So.
56:07Philippe.
56:11So.
56:26No.
56:27No.
56:40No.
56:43That's too much.
56:44No.
56:44No.
56:44No.
56:44No.
56:45No.
56:46No.
56:47No.
