00:28You
00:55This party
00:56Mr. Heseltine says Britain should reach for the levers of power
00:59If only to prevent others pulling them first
01:02One dead and ulster gun battle between soldiers and terrorists
01:07Policemake arrests over ballot rigging in the transport union
01:10Confusion over plastic cling film after the government's cancer warning
01:15And animals to the slaughter
01:17How the RSPCA hopes to stop live animal exports
01:21Michael Heseltine was speaking to a conference in Hamburg
01:24Mr. Heseltine is now on his way back to London to be in the Commons this afternoon
01:29There Sir Geoffrey Howe is expected to spell out in detail the reasons for his resignation
01:34Is there anything Sir Geoffrey is likely to say this afternoon that could influence Mr. Heseltine
01:39On whether to throw his hat in the ring
01:40Well Sir Geoffrey is an extremely cautious man
01:43I suspect that his speech will be carefully written
01:46And I just wonder whether it will be sufficiently in code not really to damage the Prime Minister
01:52Sir Geoffrey has very deep personal and ideological differences with the Prime Minister
01:57I think he will spell them out
01:59But whether he will spell them out in clear set terms that amount to an assault on her leadership
02:04I think we have to wait and see for that
02:06I remind the House that a resignation statement is heard in silence and without interruption
02:13Sir Geoffrey Howe
02:16Mr. Speaker, sir
02:22I find to my astonishment
02:24that a quarter of a century has passed since I last spoke from one of these back benches
02:31Mr. Speaker, I believe that both the Chancellor and the Governor are cricketing enthusiasts
02:36So I hope that there is no monopoly of cricketing metaphors
02:40Increasingly, those of us close to the Prime Minister feel like opening batsmen being sent to the crease
02:45only to find the moment the first balls are bowled
02:48that our bats have been broken before the game
02:50by the team captain
02:59The point, Mr. Speaker, was perhaps more sharply put by a British businessman
03:04trading in Brussels and elsewhere
03:06who wrote to me last week
03:09People throughout Europe, he said
03:11see our Prime Minister's finger wagging
03:14and hear her passionate
03:17No
03:18No
03:19No
03:21Much more clearly than the content of the carefully worded formal texts
03:25It is too easy, he went on, for them to believe that we all share her attitudes
03:30For why else, he asked, has she been our Prime Minister for so long?
03:37This is, my correspondent concluded, a desperately serious situation for our country
03:43And sadly, Mr. Speaker, I have to agree
03:48The conflict of loyalty
03:50Of loyalty to my right honourable friend, the Prime Minister
03:54And after all, in two decades together
03:57That instinct of loyalty is still very real
04:02And of loyalty to what I perceive to be the true interests of the nation
04:06That conflict of loyalty
04:08That conflict of loyalty has become all too great
04:11I no longer believe it possible to resolve that conflict from within this government
04:16That is why I have resigned
04:18In doing so, I have done what I believe to be right for my party and my country
04:24Time has come for others to consider their own response
04:27To the tragic conflict of loyalties
04:30With which I have myself wrestled
04:32For perhaps too long
04:34A little bit
04:49Uh, the Queen?
04:51The drawing room, Your Highness
04:52Right
04:54She has resumed her affair with Major Hewitt
04:57With flagrant disregard for the agreement we made in our meeting with you
05:02A meeting in which it's now clear she brazenly lied to your face
05:08So, I hope you agree
05:09It leaves me with no option but to start a formal separation
05:12Oh, Charles
05:13I am wretchedly unhappy
05:14And yet there is someone else out there who would make me perfectly happy
05:17Quick, switch on the television
05:18Why?
05:19The Ides of March
05:21The Julius Caesar
05:22Or, when I say, Julia Caesar
05:25I'm sorry, we're in the middle of an important conversation
05:27Shh
05:27Her style of government
05:28He says her nightmare image of Europe risks the future of the nation
05:33Can Sir Geoffrey's peroration where he said
05:36The time has come for others to consider their response
05:39Be read in any other way than a clear invitation to open a contest for the leadership?
05:44That is one of the implications
05:45Some people would go further than that
05:47They would say that he's urging people to vote
05:49Yes, Mrs. Thatcher
05:50Margaret Thatcher is facing the most serious threat to her 11 years in power
05:54For the first time in 15 years
05:55Sir Geoffrey Howe, Mrs. Thatcher's longest serving colleague throughout her years in power
05:59Turned on her in the Commons today
06:01And accused her of risking the nation's future
06:04He was explaining for the first time
06:06Why he resigned as deputy prime minister
06:08Deserting her over her refusal to keep in step with the European Union
06:11MPs had expected a coded diplomatic speech
06:13Instead, years of resentment and frustration
06:16Were compressed into a picture of Mrs. Thatcher
06:19And her attitude to Europe
06:21He called on Conservative MPs to consider what he described as their conflict of loyalties
06:26They now delivered a stinging indictment of Thatcher in the House of Commons
06:29And virtually called on Tory members of Parliament
06:31And they hoped there would be some reaction in her favour
06:33It's now down to Conservative members of Parliament
06:36The Prime Minister Mark has planned your face as a challenge that could cost her her job
06:38Instead, MPs, ministers and peers are still trying to assess
06:42What one described as an incitement to mutiny
06:45And another said was an act of treachery
07:16The Prime Minister Mark
07:46The Prime Minister Mark
08:16The Prime Minister Mark
08:17I don't know.
09:11I don't know.
09:19I don't know.
09:23Come on.
09:25Come on.
09:30Não émãe, não émãe.
09:39Come on there, darling. Not long until the holidays.
09:44Love you.
09:49Well done, Sarah. I will see you at Christmas.
09:53Goodbye.
10:15Is that it? I'm not going to talk again, ever.
10:18Since every time we do talk, it ends in an argument, I'd say silence was preferable.
10:28What's this I hear about a trip to New York?
10:31Oh, don't look so surprised. The government requested it. Everyone knows I'm going.
10:35No one knew you were going on your own.
10:37What an ugly, avaricious piece of self-advancement that is.
10:41I'd sooner be doing it with my husband by my side.
10:45Doing what?
10:47The past few months you've barely been in a fit state psychologically to go to the hairdresser, much less represent
10:52the crown.
10:52Although I gather you've still found time to see certain other people.
11:00I think this conversation's gone as far as it can.
11:02You were the one who insisted on talking.
11:05They always said silence was preferable.
11:14One crisis rising above all the others to bear your majesty.
11:19Yes.
11:19An inconvenience one would dearly like to avoid, given the significant challenges this country already faces.
11:27The crisis in the Gulf.
11:30Oh, that crisis?
11:32Well, that is the predominant challenge facing us.
11:35I thought you might be referring to matters closer to home.
11:38There are one or two minor domestic matters, some changes to fishing license conditions, but nothing I would want to
11:46waste your valuable time with.
11:48You don't think we should briefly discuss that speech?
11:51Which speech?
11:53Which speech?
11:54The resignation speech made by Sir Geoffrey Howe that's caused such a stir.
11:58Why would we want to discuss that?
12:00Because a great deal of fuss is being made of it.
12:03Oh, poor Geoffrey.
12:04I had offered him the position of Deputy Prime Minister and he seems to have taken it rather the wrong
12:10way.
12:11In the newspapers, his speech is being seen as a direct challenge to your authority.
12:14I think that all depends on which newspapers you're reading.
12:18Not just newspapers, television too.
12:21Or watching.
12:22And as sovereign, I must ask you, do you expect a leadership challenge?
12:29The Prime Minister came to see me today.
12:31Ah, yes.
12:32To discuss the crisis in the Gulf.
12:34What?
12:36Not the fact that she'd just been knifed in the back by one of her longest standing allies?
12:40Yeah, I asked her about that.
12:42Did you really?
12:43Yes.
12:45You're brave.
12:47What did she say?
12:48Well, she said the situation was unfortunate.
12:50But it amounts to little more than petty rivalries and resentments being played out to the level of the schoolyard.
12:58I shall see them off in no time.
13:01And really, we should not dignify an insignificant internal party squabble with any more of our precious time.
13:15I will...
13:16No.
13:25For Jeffrey's attack makes this, the criticism of Mrs. Thatcher, much more lethal.
13:31I'm having.
13:32trouble not that she will be beaten in the first ballot by michael heseltine but more probably that
13:38there will be enough votes against her and enough abstentions to damage her seriously one person
13:45said to me that he thought it possible if she were badly enough damaged that members of the cabinet
13:49would go to the chief whip and say that she ought to consider her future it's premature to say that
13:55yet but undoubtedly there's a rather stronger tide running against mrs thatcher tonight than
14:01there has ever been before oh yes yeah i see thank you
14:17how many before short not enough to stop it going to a second ballot
14:24oh it's betrayal of the very worst kind
14:30they owe their political lives to me it's despicable those little men
14:38and you want me to get on my knees to them never
14:46have them brought into me one by one
15:11the first item on the agenda is her royal highness's forthcoming solo visit to new york
15:19looking at the itinerary our concern would be that it seems to be challenging
15:26several appointments each day it's just four days edward in multiple locations
15:32we all know the toll a schedule of engagements can take and i'm sure no one here would wish to
15:38see the
15:38princess of wales over stretched certainly not at a risk to her own health the princess of wales's health
15:45is exemplary mental health
15:50not to mention the amount of time she'd be separated from her children
15:54and the distress that might cause her princess of wales is well aware of what's required of her
15:59and is very much looking forward to the trip
16:20i have only one question
16:25will you support me
16:29of course you will always have my unconditional support i am with you you can always count on me
16:39the problem is the numbers are against you and your inability to unite the party behind you over
16:46europe over the economy over taxation perhaps if your methods were less confrontational and if you'd
16:52consulted with cabinet rather than ruling by decree your rejection of core conservative values
16:59of moderation compassion and your total disregard for the center ground leaves you vulnerable
17:06exposed isolated i shall always defend you margaret always but as your friend as an ally i think i speak
17:19of the majority when i say the time might have come for some new blood
17:26and that it would be in everyone's best interests if you were to stand down
17:48bastards
17:51bloody lot of them murderers
18:04so is that it is that the end no
18:12i still have one card to play
18:15britain will send more troops to the gulf the defense secretary tom king
18:20president bush called to tell me he thought it barbaric
18:24chancellor cole said it was inhumane
18:28michael gorbachev reminded me that 10 years ago it was britain holding democratic elections whilst russia
18:37staged cabinet coups now it's the other way around what they all agree on
18:43is that getting rid of me is an act of national self-harm which is why i've come to you
18:50ma'am
18:51that together we may act in the national self-interest
18:55how might i help
18:57by dissolving parliament
19:01what we are on the brink of war what kind of signal does that give to our enemies
19:09to saddam if we were to change leadership now it would make us look hopelessly weak and divided
19:17i agree it's not ideal
19:20have you consulted cabinet on this matter
19:22i have not ma'am surely that would be the normal course of action with all due respect
19:29the decision to dissolve parliament is in the gift of the prime minister alone
19:35it is entirely within my power to do this if i see fit you are correct technically it is within
19:43your
19:44power to request this but we must all ask ourselves when to exercise those things that are within our
19:50power and when not to your first instinct as a person i think is often to act to exercise power
19:58what is what people want in a leader to show conviction and strength to lead
20:08i'm merely asking the question whether it is correct to exercise a power simply because it is yours to use
20:17power is nothing without authority and at this moment your cabinet is against you
20:25your party is against you and if the polls are to be believed if you were to call a general
20:30election
20:31today you would not win which suggests the country is against you perhaps the time has come
20:40for you to try doing nothing for once the difference is you have power in doing nothing i will have
20:55nothing
20:58you will have your dignity there is no dignity in the wilderness then might i suggest you don't think
21:04of it as that think of it as an opportunity to pursue other passions i have other loves my husband
21:15my children
21:18but this job is my only true passion
21:25and to have it taken from me stolen from me so cruelly
21:34what hurts the most is that we had come so far
21:41and now to have the opportunity to finish the job snatched away at the very last
22:09i'm in hell and he just hates me and wants me to fail he tells everyone i'm mad
22:20they treat me like i'm mad and i'm starting to feel mad why did i agree to this trip
22:29i'm going to fall flat on my face
22:47i'm going to fall flat on my face
22:57and i'm going to fall flat on my face
26:40We established the pediatric AIDS unit two years ago to deal with the rising problem
26:46of infants suffering with the disease.
26:58Hello.
27:02Many of the children have been abandoned or have parents who are addicts or sick with
27:07the virus.
27:08They desperately need foster parents, but people are too afraid to take them.
27:12Why?
27:14Because of the stigma.
27:16Because of the stigma, the fear of the disease.
27:35We want the princesses.
27:37We want the princess to be heard in New Yorkshire neighborhood today.
27:39A triumphant end to a triumphant end to a triumphant end to a triumphant end to a trip to see
27:41in the princess flying solo for the first time, hitting new heights without her husband, Prince Charles.
27:47We love her.
27:48We love her.
27:48She's beautiful.
27:50She's warm.
27:51She's perfect.
27:51They don't want her there.
27:52We would love to have her here.
27:54The way she hugged that boy in the hospital nearly broke my heart.
27:58Prince Charles is a lucky man.
28:00You know what I'm saying?
28:00Prince Charles, thank you for bringing love and vitality to the Lower East Side.
28:05He knows how to make people feel good, and that is a God-given talent.
28:10Alright?
28:26If you care about me as much as you say you do, sir, you will let go of these ideas
28:30of breaking it off for Diana.
28:33Why?
28:35Don't you want us to be free to live our life in the open?
28:40I do.
28:45But I want to be humiliated and attacked even less.
28:49That's what'll happen if you put me in a popularity contest against her.
28:53I will lose.
28:55I'm an old woman.
28:56I'm a married woman.
28:58No-one near as pretty.
28:59No-one near as radiant.
29:02Someone who looks like me has no place in a fairy tale.
29:06That's all people want.
29:07The fairy tale.
29:08If they knew the truth about our feelings for one another, they'd have their fairy tale.
29:12No.
29:13To be the protagonist of a fairy tale, you must first be wronged.
29:17A victim.
29:20If we were to become public, we would make her.
29:24In the narrative laws of fairy tales versus reality, the fairy tale always prevails.
29:32She will always defeat me in the court of public opinion.
29:35What is all this, my darling?
29:39What's gotten into you today?
29:44It's reality, sir.
29:48She's the princess of Wales.
29:51It's a future queen, the mother to a future king.
29:56And I'm just-
29:57My one true love.
30:03A mistress.
30:06A mistress to the Prince of Wales.
30:08Just like my great-grandmother, Alice Keppel, was the mistress to the Prince of Wales.
30:13Your great-great-grandfather.
30:14And he loved her till the end.
30:26Leave this with me.
30:34Number ten is a house and a home, as well as an office.
30:37And as Margaret Thatcher left it after so long, there was applause to be heard.
30:41And I've told a tear or two shed among the unseen staff.
30:44Mrs. Thatcher's own voice had an emotional edge to it.
30:47Ladies and gentlemen, we are leaving Downing Street for the last time.
30:54After eleven and a half wonderful years.
30:58It was the end of an era dominated by this woman whose name has become a political byword.
31:04Eleven years of Thatcherism.
31:06She recovered quickly for one last wave.
31:10But then the Iron Lady's composure almost broke.
31:14Watch her face as she reaches her car.
31:24Friends say that she is deeply shocked by the seeming injustice of it all.
31:28Three election victories and a clear though insufficient majority in the first ballot.
31:32Rewarded, as she sees it, with the sack.
31:35Mrs. Thatcher, of course, has a new role now.
31:38Martin, could you ask the Prime, could you ask Mrs. Thatcher to come and see me?
31:42I'll go with you.
31:44I'll go with you.
32:09I'll go with you.
32:11I'll go with you.
32:12And I was surrounded by stuffy, rather patronizing, grey-haired men everywhere, telling me what to do.
32:19And I wanted to say, the way you dealt with all your stuffy, rather patronizing, grey-haired men throughout your
32:27time in office, and saw them all off...
32:30Well, they've had their revenge now.
32:35I was shocked by the way in which you were forced to leave office
32:40and I wanted to offer my sympathy
32:43not just as Queen to Prime Minister
32:47but woman to woman
32:50throughout the time we worked together
32:52people tended to focus on our many differences
32:57which was lazy
32:58and misleading I think
33:01and overlook the many things we actually do have in common
33:05our generation
33:07our Christianity
33:09our work ethic
33:11our sense of duty
33:14but above all
33:16our devotion to this country that we both love
33:21so with that in mind
33:36the order of merit
33:39is not awarded by some faceless committee
33:43it comes at the personal discretion of the sovereign
33:46and is in recognition of exceptionally meritorious service
33:52it is limited to just 24 recipients
33:55no matter their background
33:58you could be the daughter of a duke
34:01or a greengrocer
34:05what matters
34:07is your accomplishments
34:09and nobody can deny
34:12that this is a very different country now
34:14to the one inherited by our first woman Prime Minister
34:23now it's normally handed over in the box
34:29congratulations
34:29but if you would allow me
34:46congratulations
34:46and we don't allow me
35:27I don't know.
35:46I don't know.
36:13It's kind of you to come.
36:15Why would you say that?
36:16Well, I think even my sternest critics would concede that my first solo trip has not been a disaster, that
36:21I didn't fall totally flat on my face.
36:23So I can only imagine, hope, that you've come here to apologize, to eat your words, and congratulate me.
36:33I don't know.
36:35I don't know.
37:23I don't know.
37:42I don't know.
38:14I don't know.
38:14I don't know.
38:14I can't be blamed any longer for this grotesque misalliance.
38:18I wash my hands of it!
38:23I don't know.
38:36I don't know.
38:39I don't know.
38:51I don't know.
38:52I don't know.
39:11I don't know.
39:24I don't know.
39:24I don't know.
39:34I don't know.
39:45I don't know.
39:48I always say that.
39:49But baby, it stole outside.
39:51This evening has been.
39:54So long very night.
39:56I'll hold your hands, they're just like pies.
40:00My mother will start to worry
40:02Beautiful, what's your love?
40:04And father will be facing the field
40:07So really, I'd better scourge
40:11Beautiful, please don't hurt me
40:13Well, maybe just a handful of drink
40:15Put some records on while I fall
40:17The neighbors might think
40:18But baby, it's bad out there
40:20Saying what's in this dream
40:22No cabs to be had out there
40:25I wish I knew how
40:27Your eyes are like starlight now
40:30I'll take your hat
40:32Your hair looks like
40:34I want to say no
40:36Mind if I'm
40:37Please I'm gonna say that I've tried
40:40That's the sense of great
40:42I'll try
40:43But baby, don't hurt me
40:46Oh, no, I'm going to say
40:48Sure
40:50It's fine, I love that
40:52The baby is cold outside
40:54The baby is cold outside
40:58I'm well-written
40:59Welcome back to you
41:01How lucky that you've got
41:02So nice and warm
41:04Look out that window
41:06At that star
41:08My sister will be suspicious
41:11My brother will be there at the door
41:15My maiden aunt's mind is precious
41:20Well, maybe just a scissor at the door
41:23Oh, yes, you do find a moment
41:24And I told you
41:26It actually starts with the punchline
41:28It actually sounds funnier than the extra
41:30There you are
41:33Mama
41:37Well, I'm sure no one told you
41:39But I made a request through my office
41:41For us to find a moment to speak together
41:44In private
41:46Well, I hope you're not wanting to talk here
41:49No, not here
41:50Or now
41:51The dogs need feeding
41:52Dogs?
41:53Yes, the dogs
41:54So if you don't mind
41:54We'll have to find another time
42:04You're hungry
42:06Are you all hungry?
42:09Who's going to tell me about their day?
42:11You had a lovely day
42:12Have you had fun?
42:20What are you doing here?
42:22I hope you don't mind
42:24I thought we might find a moment alone
42:26Honestly, both of you
42:28Both of us?
42:29You and your wife
42:30Ambushing me everywhere I go
42:32With anxious looks in your eyes
42:33Wanting to talk
42:34I do want to talk, Mummy
42:36We need to talk
42:39Fine, let's talk
42:41Might I request we do it like privy counsellors
42:43On our feet
42:44To keep it brief
42:52It's the marriage
42:54Yes, I had a horrible idea
42:55We were going in this direction
42:56I have done my best
42:58My very best
42:59And I am suffering
43:01No, you are not suffering
43:04We are all suffering
43:05Having to put up with this
43:06Let me make something clear
43:08When people look at you and Diana
43:09They see two privileged young people
43:11Who through good fortune
43:13Have ended up with everything
43:14One could dream of in life
43:15No one
43:16Not a single breathing living soul
43:17Anywhere
43:18Sees cause for suffering
43:19They would if they knew
43:20Knew what?
43:22They know
43:22That you betray your wife
43:24And make no attempt to hide it
43:25They know
43:26That thanks to you
43:27She has psychological problems
43:28And eats or doesn't eat
43:30Or whatever it is
43:30She does or doesn't do
43:31They know
43:32That you are a spoilt
43:33Immature man
43:33Endlessly complaining
43:35Unnecessarily
43:35Married to a spoilt
43:37Immature woman
43:37Endlessly complaining
43:38Unnecessarily
43:39And we are all
43:40Heartily sick of it
43:42All anyone wants
43:43Is for the pair of you
43:43To pull yourselves together
43:44Stop making spectacles
43:46Of yourselves
43:46And make this marriage
43:48And your enormously
43:49Privileged positions
43:50In life work
43:51And if I want to separate
43:52You will not separate
43:53Or divorce
43:54Or let the side down
43:55In any way
43:56And if one day
43:57You expect to be king
43:58I do
43:58Then might I suggest
43:59You start to behave like one
44:12I do
44:12I do
44:57Yes, please.
44:58Yes, please.
44:59Yes, please.
45:14Come.
45:18Hello.
45:20Oh, please.
45:24I came to see if you were all right.
45:32Do you know, I don't think I've ever seen inside this room.
45:40We can be a rough bunch in this family, and I'm sure, on occasion, to a sensitive creature
45:48like you, it must feel like, well, let me ask, what does it feel like?
45:56A cold, frozen tundra.
46:00Right.
46:03Like that, then?
46:05An icy, dark, loveless cave, with no light, no hope anywhere, not even the faintest crack.
46:20I see.
46:25He will come around.
46:28He will.
46:30Eventually.
46:32When he realizes that you can never have the other one.
46:43Will it help you to realize we all think he's quite mad?
46:48That might have reassured me once.
46:50But I worry we're past that point now.
46:53Well, sir.
46:56And if he, if this family, can't give me the love and security that I feel I deserve, then
47:03I believe I have no option but to break away, officially, and find it myself.
47:09I wouldn't do that if I would.
47:10Why not?
47:10What?
47:11Let's just say, I can't see it ending well for you.
47:16I hope that isn't a threat, sir.
47:19Not now.
47:20Out!
47:33Although we are both outsiders who married in, you and I are quite different.
47:41Yes.
47:43I can see that now.
47:49You're right to call me an outsider.
47:53I was an outsider the day that I met the, the 13-year-old princess who would one day become
48:00my wife.
48:03And after all these years, I still am.
48:10We all are.
48:14Everyone in this system is a lost, lonely, irrelevant outsider.
48:23Apart from the one person, the only person that matters.
48:33She's the oxygen we all breathe.
48:36The essence of all our duty.
48:41Your problem, if I may say, is you seem to be confused about who that person is.
48:54Come.
48:57Um, just to say, your royal highnesses, the photographer is ready.
50:14Everyone, we're going to do the photograph.
50:33The merriest of Christmas smiles?
50:36Yes.
50:37Three, two, one.
50:39Did anyone blink?
50:49The merriest of Christmas
51:23The merriest of Christmas
51:38The merriest of Christmas
52:17The merriest of Christmas
53:01The merriest of Christmas
53:31The merriest of Christmas
54:01The merriest of Christmas
54:02The merriest of Christmas
54:15The merriest of Christmas
