00:25At John Brown's yard on Clydeside,
00:27the 4,000-ton Royal Yacht is ready for launching by Her Majesty.
00:37Thousands of dock workers, many of whom helped to build the Royal Craft,
00:40give the Queen a warm reception as she walks past them to inspect the yacht.
00:44For many months, there has been speculation about the name of the new yacht,
00:48and there's an air of expectancy as Her Majesty steps forward
00:51to perform the actual launching ceremony.
00:57I am delighted to join you in Clydebank today,
01:01for the launch of this, the latest Royal Yacht.
01:05I hope that this brand-new vessel, like your brand-new Queen,
01:12will prove to be dependable and constant,
01:16capable of weathering any storm.
01:19I now take great pride in naming this ship Britannia.
01:30I wish success to her, and to all who sail in her.
01:36Her Majesty releases the traditional bottle,
01:39not of champagne this time, but of empire wine.
01:50Soon, the Britannia will become a home for the Queen,
01:53the Duke and their children.
02:09Ah, please, Your Majesty.
02:11Ah.
02:13And again.
02:15Ah.
02:17Lovely. Thank you.
02:29Deep breath in.
02:31And out.
02:34And again.
02:44122 over 80.
02:52And if we could just pop the stockings off, Your Majesty.
02:58Still getting the aches on the balls of the feet?
03:02I'm at the risk of sounding like a broken record.
03:05The less time you spend on your feet, the better.
03:08Occupational hazard, I'm afraid.
03:10Now, if I can invite you to come this way.
03:23Nine and a half stone, as opposed to last year's...
03:26Not sure I want to know.
03:27Nine stone.
03:28And the year befores?
03:30Eight and three quarters.
03:32It makes no sense.
03:34In terms of diet and behaviour, I've not changed a thing.
03:37As we get older, weight stays on, and it's harder to shift.
03:40For men, they say a stone a decade.
03:42And for women?
03:44Maybe half a stone.
03:46All right. Half a stone by the end of summer.
03:51Scotland, as always?
03:52Oh, yes. Heavenly Scotland.
03:54Though slightly less heavenly without the cream teas.
03:56Is Balmoral your favourite home, would you say?
04:00Probably my second.
04:05That's a rather personal question.
04:08I do apologise, Mamma.
04:12I don't know what I was thinking.
04:14There is another.
04:16That's even more special to me.
04:21It's fine.
04:27Well, it is goodbye.
04:34Yeah.
04:46I had a call from the Sunday Times.
04:48times a day, sir, regarding a poll they've conducted about the monarchy, and it's interesting.
04:53When talking about the Queen, again and again, the same words came up. Irrelevant, old, expensive,
05:00out of touch. Quite distinct from the way people talked about you, sir. Really? Should I cover my
05:07ears? No, on the contrary. They described you as young, energetic, modern, empathetic, and when asked
05:16almost half believe you would make an excellent king and would support an early application by the
05:20Queen in your favour. And the story is running when? Sunday week, sir. When I'll be in Italy with the
05:31family. Well, actually, we think the timing of the holiday is ideal. As you know, a big part of your
05:37appeal as future king is the prospect of the Princess of Wales as Queen. Yes. So we've taken the liberty
05:43of
05:43briefing one or two friendly newspapers that it's a second honeymoon. Right.
06:08That's what they said. Those are the words they used. Second honeymoon.
06:24That's what they said. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be.
06:41They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be.
06:41They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be.
06:41They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be.
06:41They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be.
06:41They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be.
06:44They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be.
06:44They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be.
06:47They used to be. They used to be. They used to be. They used to be.
08:00Five minutes.
08:02Let's go.
08:10This is classic Charles.
08:14On the one hand, he says he wants his holiday to his second honeymoon and he invites cousin Norton and
08:19wife Penny to join us.
08:20Those two are so much apart of the high-growth furniture. Camilla might as well be here herself.
08:25If one were to be charitable for a moment, they've been through a lot recently with their youngest.
08:30Oh, I know. My goddaughter, Leonora.
08:33What's the latest?
08:34She's in a mission. You know how it is. One can never be sure.
08:50Hello.
08:52Hello.
09:14I just wanted to say how happy I am that we're doing this.
09:28Diana!
09:30Diana!
09:32Diana!
09:34Diana!
09:42Diana!
09:48Diana!
09:50Diana!
09:51Diana!
09:58Diana!
10:00Diana!
10:06What do you think, Michelle?
10:10Give them some of the old magic.
10:11Well, come on, then. Let's blow them away.
10:49So, the route I propose that we take is from Naples to Ischia,
10:57where Garibaldi spent some time recuperating after being injured in the Italian Wars of Independence. Am I right?
11:03Yes, sir.
11:04Then on to Capri to see the ruins of the magnificent Villa Jovis.
11:08Then down the Amalfi Coast, on to Sicily, with a final stop in Olbia on Sardinia for a private view
11:15of the Museo Archaeologico there.
11:19And were there any other requests?
11:21Some beaches, perhaps.
11:23There will, of course, be beaches along the way.
11:28And watersports.
11:29And noisy watersports.
11:31And shopping.
11:36Shopping.
11:37It's possible some people might like to go shopping one day.
11:40Who?
11:42Show of hands, would anyone apart from Diana like to go shopping?
11:47And the entire point of being on a beautiful yacht like this is that you can escape from hordes of
11:53people indulging in retail as recreation.
11:59Me!
12:00Me!
12:01I want to go shopping.
12:02Me too.
12:10Then we'll go shopping.
12:21Thanks for sticking up for me.
12:24What's brave?
12:28Special treat you get to choose between a bedtime story or...
12:32Super Mario!
12:33Don't tell your father.
12:37Are you going back upstairs now?
12:39God, no.
12:41Off to read the classics.
12:43Good and early night.
12:44Love you.
12:45I love you, Mummy.
12:46I love you too, my darlings.
13:09Charles and Diana seem to be the happy couple again.
13:12What a blessing that would be for everyone.
13:19Who's that?
13:22What was what?
13:23That noise.
13:28There was a mechanical noise.
13:34There it is again.
13:35Right.
13:36I'm off.
13:38One last day cutting ribbons in Morecambe.
13:40Then feet up the summer.
13:56As patron of the Church Urban Fund, I am aware of the vast challenges faced by this community
14:04and many others across the diocese.
14:06The milk marketing board is among the most enduring and resilient of Britain's commercial enterprises.
14:15This state-of-the-art dairy complex is testament to the continuing vitality of British others.
14:26It has been a great pleasure to learn more about intermodal containers, representing a great 30% of the European
14:35freight market.
14:37It is clear that intermodal containers are Lancashire's ticket to a bright future.
15:06How long has the pressure been down on that ground?
15:08Since this morning, sir.
15:22It shouldn't come as a surprise she's falling apart.
15:25She's a creature of another age.
15:28Effectively a World War II cruiser with soft furnishings.
15:32In many ways, she's obsolete.
15:34Don't say that.
15:36What are the options?
15:37Well, we've trouble with the main engine.
15:40Stubborn boilers out of service.
15:44Sentimentally, I think we'd all prefer to stick with her.
15:47I should say.
15:48But we have to be realistic about the cost of repairs when she's so obviously past her best.
15:55Are you seeing the Prime Minister in Balmoral next week?
15:58Yes.
15:58He's coming with his wife, Dora.
16:01No, that's not right.
16:03Nora.
16:05Norma.
16:05Well, you might want to bring it up with him then.
16:08I'll talk to the Admiral and come up with some figures.
16:12But it's the first time I've started to consider the unthinkable.
16:15What's that?
16:16A replacement.
16:20Built in AD 27 by...
16:25Tiberius?
16:26Tiberius?
16:26Tiberius?
16:26Wow.
16:27The most magnificent of world imperial residences here in Caterine.
16:34Some people say that Tiberius escaped to Caterine because he could no longer endure the machinations of his mother's court
16:40in Rome.
16:41Not something I could ever understand.
16:44And after a long, successful career as a general...
16:59Bye, Charles.
17:01We'll miss you while we're having all the fun.
17:07It's an extraordinary
17:09how two people's understanding of fun
17:10could be so wholly different.
17:20When they suggested to us,
17:23Diana and I,
17:24that we should reassure the public
17:27about the strength of our marriage
17:28by coming on a second honeymoon,
17:31I said to them,
17:32you obviously weren't at the first one.
17:34On Britannia, wasn't it?
17:36Yes.
17:37I know the Queen thinks the royal yacht
17:39is perfect in every way,
17:40but as an intimate space for newlyweds,
17:43it's like a floating observation tank.
17:49Every awkward silence
17:50and stilted conversation
17:53between bride and glue
17:55glaringly obvious to each and every one
17:57of the 200 crew.
18:06Did you just say bride and glue?
18:09Did I?
18:17The irony is,
18:18I'm the only person this marriage does make gloomy.
18:21It seems to lift the rest of the world up.
18:25when we're together in public.
18:28I can't deny it is magical.
18:30The perfect team.
18:33Yet in private.
18:39Listen to me.
18:41after everything you've been through
18:42with your girl.
18:43Oh.
18:47She let me comb her hair last week.
18:51First time since it's grown back.
18:53Do you know it's come back curly?
18:56I find myself slightly ashamed to think
18:58I actually prefer it that way.
19:03It's a dreadful,
19:06wicked disease.
19:08You've all been so wonderfully strong.
19:13Is it important?
19:15The Sunday time, sir?
19:18Oh.
19:19Yes.
19:19I'll leave you to it.
19:22Yes.
19:25It's running tomorrow.
19:27I've managed to
19:27gain advanced sight of it
19:29and I think you'll agree
19:30it's
19:30pretty punchy.
19:47Good morning, your majesty.
19:49Good morning, Peggy.
19:51Oh, a bit wet
19:53for the arrival
19:54of the Princess Royal.

23:12debate on radio and television with one particular phrase getting most attention
23:16queen victoria's syndrome yes i saw that
23:23an aging monarch too long on the throne whose remoteness from the modern world has led people to grow
23:30tired not just of her but of the monarchy itself
23:36any reaction from the queen my understanding is she hasn't seen it
23:40that they've kept it from her to protect her feelings doesn't that tell you everything
23:51i'd like you to arrange a meeting with the prime minister as soon as we're back
23:57i'll think about suitable pretext

26:03what come i never noticed

26:14reliable
26:16sensible agreeable

26:27in an otherwise black and hopeless night
26:30that reassure the lonely mariner they are not forgotten
26:34and we'll soon find land and home
26:38and hope
26:56it appears that there's has to be an unfortunate curtailment to the holiday
27:01clash of diaries so i understand what
27:03this prince of wales is due to give a lecture at the university
27:10what's this about us going home
27:13it turns out there's a
27:15a diary conflict through no fault of mine and i have to get back
27:20we're supposed to be here for two weeks
27:21yes i know
27:22don't ever
27:23the plans change
27:25i have a commitment at oxford university
27:27it isn't the university
27:30it's a summer school for tourists it's not essential
27:32it is to me
27:36this is our holiday
27:39it's a rare opportunity for us to be together with the boys as a family
27:42and i know you struggle with that sort of thing which is why i agreed to
27:45bringing your friends along to entertain you
27:48and i even agreed to do the photo call today requested by your people so the lie could be
27:52paraded to the world's media about what an adoring husband you are on one condition
27:55what's that that you actually are one
28:25is
28:32so
28:57I hate you, my brother!
29:35...tens of thousands of British families.
29:38Repossessions are now at record levels.
29:40In the first half of this year, 36,600 homes were taken over by building societies.
29:53I think there's a case for saying
29:55it's the most difficult economic recession since the war,
29:58and it has struck right across the economy.
30:01It's certainly been a very difficult year.
30:06The Prime Minister, Your Royal Highness.
30:11Prime Minister.
30:14Your Royal Highness.
30:15So kind of you should come.
30:16Sir.
30:20Before we begin, I wonder,
30:22did your office let anyone at Buckingham Palace know that we were meeting?
30:25I don't believe so, sir.
30:27Probably for the best.
30:36There are two reasons I asked if I could see you today.
30:40The first, conserving our built heritage.
30:44I wonder, did you receive the copy of my book?
30:46I did.
30:48I don't suppose you found time to flick through it.
30:50Knowing we were meeting today, I made a point of it.
30:53Reading it, I'm sure you thought,
30:56what an old fogey.
30:58How stuck in the past he is with his loathing of modernism and change.
31:04Not at all.
31:05Why?
31:08You'd have been right to.
31:09I am fixated by the past.
31:12By tradition.
31:15Preserving it.
31:16Conserving it.
31:17But none of us is exclusively one thing.
31:19Human beings are too interesting for that.
31:21You yourself are full of fascinating contradictions.
31:25Sir?
31:26Coming from Brixton,
31:28a multicultural, working-class part of London,
31:30one might have expected you
31:32either to have concealed your past in order to fit in with the Tories
31:35or to have a more socialist viewpoint
31:38and become a rising star in the Labour Party.
31:40I have never felt that because of my background,
31:43I should not be a conservative.
31:45Precisely.
31:46You not only refuse to deny your contradictions,
31:49you don't see them as contradictions.
31:52I don't.
31:53Which makes you a far more interesting,
31:55more complex, more impressive person.
32:01And I hope
32:04that the same can be said of me.
32:09Which brings me to the second reason for our meeting.
32:12You saw the, uh...
32:15the recent poll
32:18and Sunday Times article about the Queen.
32:20I did.
32:22Queen Victoria's Syndrome.
32:27What were your
32:30conclusions?
32:31It's just a poll, sir.
32:34True.
32:36Not a reassuring one.
32:38Polls come and go.
32:40Dangerous to ignore them.
32:42Equally dangerous to be guided by them.
32:55There must have been many
32:58polls around the time of Mrs. Thatcher's departure.
33:03I'm sure many people wanted the Iron Lady to go on forever,
33:06but what makes the Conservative Party
33:08the successful electoral force that it is?
33:11It's instinct for renewal
33:13and it's willingness to make way for someone younger.
33:19For almost 60 years,
33:22my great-great-grandfather, Edward VII,
33:25was kept waiting in the wings.
33:28It was said that Queen Victoria
33:30had no confidence in him,
33:32thought him dangerous,
33:34free-thinking.
33:38He longed
33:39to be given
33:40responsibilities,
33:42but his mother refused.
33:44Even forbade him from seeing state papers.
33:49And yet, when his time came,
33:51he proved his doubters wrong,
33:53and his
33:54dynamism,
33:55his intellect,
33:56his popular appeal
33:57made his reign a triumph.
34:00What are you saying, sir?
34:03I'm saying
34:04what a pity it was.
34:06What a waste
34:08that his
34:10voice,
34:11his presence,
34:13his vision
34:13wasn't incorporated earlier.
34:16It would have been so good
34:19for everybody.
34:30You're coming to Balmoral,
34:32to the Ghillies Ball?
34:34Yes.
34:35Very much looking forward to it.
34:39Well, then you'll have an opportunity
34:41to, uh,
34:44judge for yourself
34:45whether this institution
34:46that we
34:47all care about
34:48so deeply
34:54is in safe hands.
35:02Now to my questions
35:03about our built heritage
35:04and rural
35:05planning regulations.
35:49Come on now, love.
35:50Come on.
35:51I'm so disagreeable.
35:55Hello, darling.
35:56Well, there never disappoints me here.
35:59Hello, you.
36:00Hello, you.
36:03Have you been for a nice walk?
36:07We have, and I haven't strangled her yet, which is a miracle.
36:10Hello, darling.
36:13We had a lovely morning. We read the newspapers.
36:17No, we didn't.
36:17Then we went on a long walk to discuss it all.
36:20Don't you look pretty? Doesn't she look pretty, Mum?
36:36You asked to see me, ma'am?
36:38I did.
36:40Why is everyone being odd?
36:43Ma'am?
36:44It started on the royal yacht.
36:46What?
36:47What started now?
36:48People being odd with me.
36:52You're being odd now.
36:54Am I?
36:57What's going on?
37:01An unkind, silly, inaccurate article in the Sunday Times.
37:07Not worth thinking about.
37:10Don't you think I ought to be the judge of that?
37:14Do you still have a copy?
37:15Actually, we have a short...
37:30Hu, hu, hu, hu, hu!
37:32Welp!
37:35Come on, Theyoltz!
37:36Yeoltz!
37:37Get on!
37:42Heoltz!
37:43Ha-ha!
37:44Kevin, huh.
37:44walk me and turns.
37:53Hold on, let's go.
38:41Hold on, let's go.
38:51Hold on.
39:19Hold on.
39:21The Prime Minister, Your Majesty.
39:23Prime Minister.
39:24Your Majesty.
39:26Tea.
39:28Did you come by train?
39:30Aeroplane, then car.
39:32Of course.
39:33You're a busy man.
39:34Every minute counts.
39:36But I'm a great believer in coming by sea.
39:38Instead of three hours door to door, it can take as long as two weeks on the Royal Yacht.
39:45Wonderful way to decompress.
39:48And, as my great-great-grandmother, who started the Western Isles tour, said, let time slow
39:54down so that one breathes freedom and peace, making one forget the world and its sad turmoil.
40:09I am aware the comparison between Queen Victoria and me has been made recently in the newspapers
40:14and intended as criticism.
40:16What people fail to understand is, I see any similarity with Queen Victoria as a compliment.
40:23Attributes people use to describe her.
40:26Constancy.
40:28Stability.
40:29Calm.
40:30Duty.
40:30I would be proud to have described me.
40:34And, speaking of the Royal Yacht, it has now become clear that a small refit, teeny-tiny
40:40little refreshment and refurbishment is required to keep her in tip-top shape.
40:45I am aware the costs for its maintenance are borne by the government, not by the palace.
40:50And, so here I am, coming to you, Prime Minister, on bended knee, for the sign-off.
40:58But I'm hoping that will be a formality.
41:05I'm just mindful that before she left office, Mrs. Thatcher bequeathed the palace an extremely
41:11generous civil list settlement.
41:14A deal that leaves the Royal Family richer than ever before.
41:19Given that this deal was designed precisely to forestall any awkward public debate on royal
41:25spending, I feel bound to at least raise the question of whether there's a way you might
41:31consider bearing the cost yourselves.
41:35It's just with the Royal Yacht being perceived as something of a luxury, there is a danger
41:40the palace could be seen to be asking for too much.
41:43But she isn't a luxury.
41:45Isn't she?
41:45Prime Minister.
41:47Prime Minister, there has always been a royal yacht going all the way back to King Charles
41:51the Second.
41:52She is a central and indispensable part of the way the Crown serves the nation.
41:57And the revenue she has generated doing so is incalculable.
42:00But we're in the midst of a global recession.
42:02Each penny of public spending is closely scrutinized.
42:08I worry that the government spending public money on the refurbishment of a lot of a yacht might backfire.
42:17On us both.
42:26When I came to the throne, all my palaces were inherited.
42:32Windsor, Balmoral, Sandringham.
42:34They all bear the stamp of my predecessors.
42:38Only Britannia have I truly been able to make my own.
42:43Perhaps for that reason, the connection between me and the yacht is very much deeper than a mode of transport
42:49or even a home.
42:52From the design of the hull to the smallest piece of China, she is a floating, seagoing expression of me.
43:07I hope we can agree that as sovereign, I have made very few requests, let alone demands, in return of
43:13the service I have given this country.
43:16Perhaps the reason I have held back is in the hope that when I actually do, people don't just take
43:22it seriously.
43:23They do as I ask, without question.
43:27So, I would like this government's reassurance, your reassurance, that the costs for the refurbishments will be met.
43:34And for you to inform me as soon as the arrangements are in place.
43:41I understand.
43:48Now, the ghillie's ball tonight.
43:50I have to ask, are you a dancer?
43:55Trying to turn the Ukraine into an independent European country.
43:59They want to break away from Moscow to turn their back on the leadership of Gorbachev and Yeltsin.
44:16To be aimed at the West in a bid to earn hard currency, the other Soviet republics have...
44:21...
44:27...
44:28Let's go.
45:04Let's go.
45:28Let's go.
45:31Let's go.
45:35Let's go.
45:42Let's go.
45:45Let's go.
45:46Let's go.
45:56Let's go.
46:05Let's go.
46:09Let's go.
46:11Let's go.
46:36Let's go.
46:47Let's go.
46:50Let's go.
47:21Let's go.
47:26Let's go.
47:31Let's go.
47:44Let's go.
47:46Let's go.
47:46Let's go.
47:48Let's go.
47:48Let's go.
48:04Let's go.
48:05Let's go.
48:06Let's go.
48:07Can I count on you for a full report in the morning?
48:09You can.
48:10Your Majesty.
48:11Good night.
48:12Can we slip away?
48:13Our Majesty the Queen.
48:16Let's go.
48:31Let's go.
48:42Let's go.
48:51Let's go.
48:56Let's go.
49:02Let's go.
49:05Let's go.
49:06I'll leave you with that thought.
49:09Shall we call it a night?
49:11I can't.
49:11Not yet.
49:12You dance with me before I scream.
49:17I'm so jealous you get to jump on a plane and escape out of here tomorrow back to normality.
49:22No, I'm stuck here for another two weeks.
49:25You just had a lovely family holiday.
49:27You and the Prince of Wales look so happy.
49:31you can judge the health of the family by the state of the marriages within it
49:36and look Anne and Mark look at Andrew and Sarah Charles and me
49:45I don't give any of us more than six months
49:50and what happens then when the family falls apart
49:54I say the institution falls apart and then
50:03the presentation here
50:32what's the matter
50:39when you imagine the problems you might be confronted with this prime minister
50:42you imagine tricky sessions at PMQs
50:46the economy in free fall
50:48going to war
50:52you never imagine this
50:57the house of Windsor should be
51:00binding the nation together
51:03setting an example of idealized family life
51:07instead
51:07the senior royals seem
51:10dangerously deluded and
51:12out of touch
51:15the junior royals
51:18feckless
51:19entitled
51:20lost
51:24and the prince of wales
51:25impatient for a bigger role in public life
51:28fails to appreciate
51:29that his one great asset
51:31is his wife
51:34it's a situation that cannot help
51:36but affect the stability of the country
51:41and what makes it worse is it feels it's all about to erupt
51:48on my watch
52:07is it just a situation
52:20that cannot be caught
