00:10To Prime Minister Harold Wilson and his government today is fresh on the pound.
00:20Good afternoon, Mr. King.
00:23Damage had been done by the...
00:24Good afternoon, Mr. King.
00:25Britain's trade gap is a staggering 107 million pounds.
00:30It's the worst figure on record.
00:31The government said that these figures were distorted and meaningless.
00:39Good afternoon, Mr. King.
00:42Good afternoon, Mr. King.
00:45Where is it?
00:47About you.
00:48Tomorrow's front page, sir.
00:50Not strong enough.
00:53It's the strongest headline the Daily Mail has ever written about a Labour leader.
00:56About had guilty conscience. I don't know what it's saying.
01:25It's a sad day when the Daily Mirror, a Labour-supporting newspaper, turns against a Labour leader,
01:29like this.
01:34We've done some thinking and come up with an idea for how to deflect any further criticism.
01:39Yeah, go on.
01:41Lord Mountbatten.
01:45What's he got to do with anything?
01:46I'm sure we all agree that he's a symbol of a bygone era, of privilege and inequality, empire and extravagance.
01:53Not to mention a pompous, bloody arse.
01:55Go on.
01:56As Chief of the Defence Staff, he's refusing to make the defence cuts we need.
02:01Cuts which you promised in your election manifesto.
02:05One might even tolerate it if he weren't so...
02:08vain or crooked or power-mad.
02:12Quite.
02:14What are you proposing?
02:16That we kick him out.
02:20But at least he's busy.
02:22And inside the tent...
02:24You know, people like Mountbatten.
02:26Medallists, for want of a kind of word.
02:28Energetic, well-connected medallists.
02:29It's better that they're inside the tent pissing out than outside the tent pissing in.
02:33But he belongs to another time, Harold.
02:37Kicking him out makes economic sense and shows we're tough.
02:41And who knows?
02:42It might just buy us some good headlines.
02:47Yes, I could do with some good headlines.
02:52General salute.
02:55Pre-set.
02:58Out.
02:59Out.
03:02Out.
03:10Out.
03:16Out.
04:48Oh, they're increasing fivefold, tenfold.
04:52And the conclusion of the review is that we'd like to make a few changes, one of which is to
04:58your post of Chief of the Defense Staff.
05:02What?
05:08You kicking me out?
05:12Well, no, sir.
05:13I'm thanking you on behalf of the government, on behalf of the armed forces, on behalf of the whole country
05:18for your many years of remarkable service.
05:23You are.
05:24You're kicking me out.
05:28Well, there we are.
05:35There we are.
05:37There we are.
06:29It's absurd.
06:34But where one door closes, another opens.
06:41There is special providence in such a fall.
06:45If it be now, it is not to come.
06:46If it be not to come, it will be now.
06:49If it be not now, yet it will come.
06:52The readiness is all.
07:09What am I going to do, Barrett?
07:12You'll bounce back, sir.
07:14Before long, you'll have a hundred projects.
07:20Cake, sir.
07:31Hit, hit, hooray!
07:34Should old acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind?
07:45Should old acquaintance be forgot and days of auld lang syne.
07:55For old lang syne, my dear, for old lang syne.
08:05We'll take a cup of kindness yet for auld lang syne.
08:16We, too, have brought up out the hills and pulled the daisies by.
08:25For old lang syne, my dear, for old lang syne, my dear, for old lang syne.
09:05I'll go home, sir.
09:49I'll go home, sir.
09:56Yes, of course.
09:58I think there's a picture.
10:00You don't need to worry about the stairs.
10:09Pens down, you must see.
10:15Ten minutes from Newmarket.
10:17Three, four, five, six, six.
10:48thank you Cecil how is he as good as new again and you really think he's recovered from his
10:57injury oh I do ma'am gelded fired well rusted we won't have him breaking down again any chance
11:06of seeing him on the gallops today oh no ma'am it's too wet and muddy out there it's been
11:13a
11:14lot like this hardly been able to train him at all well we can't do anything about the weather
11:23now we come to the most anticipated race of this year's Royal Ascot meeting the Queen Alexandra
11:28stakes this is Britain's longest flat race where stamina is of the essence and the favorite is of
11:35course number nine her majesty's own horse apprentice and they're off with number six
11:41panics in the early lead followed by number one Valentine's Day with number two Olympic boy
11:45cleaning right down their necks they're off the pace now as they make their start
11:51behind the number 10 of the and as far off the leaders but number nine apprentice tails behind
11:56in fitting legs a disappointing start for last year's Yorkshire club champion
12:01and panics still ahead but behind him apprentice is gaining crowns he got the challenge from
12:07number seven number seven five even and pulling into four majesty majesty darling
12:13chin up vodka apprentice really has the look of eagles as they make the turn and yes apprentice
12:19turns up the pressure on Olympic boys he moves into third place and in what is a fantastic recovery
12:24from a slow start apprentice is now level with number two Olympic boy as they raise up hill
12:28and as they come up to the final turn panic leads my length of the half but apprentice is coming
12:33through with a challenge and now it's the home street and apprentice is charging down for the
12:36assigned picking me nearly nearly nearly no he hasn't got no apprentice is starting to struggle
12:44panic is holding on he's holding his lead and apprentice is falling behind as Valentine's Day
12:48pulls back in second Olympic boy coming up for the beer and it's a busy finish but number six
12:53panic finishes first and they're close for you by number two little boy and what are you doing
12:59well you used to be at the top now you barely compete it's possible that the system set up by
13:08your late father is now a little obsolete and might need uh kicking out throwing on the dust heap
13:19if you want to keep up with the Aga Khan's of this world I would suggest you follow their lead
13:26and do what travel around the world and catch up with all the latest developments I can't just do
13:32that in case you haven't noticed I have a job to do you would only be friends not Timbuktu there
13:39are
13:40experienced people who are able to deputize for you in your absence
13:52as you know this government is committed to maintaining sterling at $2.80 to the pound
13:58but with every economic blow the oil embargo the balance of payments deficit
14:03and the docker's union strike it's proving harder and harder to maintain
14:23and I'm afraid that now we have no alternative but to devalue the pound
14:30and I need hardly say it is a matter of overwhelming regret for me personally
14:39and a humiliation for the government
14:44it feels like a bad time to say that I won't be here for our meeting next week
14:49perhaps the next two weeks but Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother will step in as councillor of state
14:56a role she's executed many times
15:06your majesty
15:24good evening
15:27a few days ago the cabinet took its unanimous decision to devalue the pound
15:33I can now tell you why we have taken this action
15:36and more importantly what it will mean for you
15:40from now on the pound abroad will be worth 14% or so less in terms of other currencies
15:46now this does not mean of course that the pound here in Britain
15:50in your pocket or your purse or your bank has been devalued
15:54what it does mean is that the goods we buy from abroad will be dearer
15:59so for many goods it will be cheaper to buy British
16:04now this devaluation has been a hard decision and some of its consequences will be hard for a time
16:14for three years this government has fought as it was our duty to fight
16:19the burden of the deficit that the previous government left us
16:23but now is not the time to triple blame now is our chance to break free from that
16:29straitjacket to seize this opportunity with both hands
16:34this is a proud nation we're out on our own now
16:38now we must choose to put Britain first
16:44good night
17:07we veterans of the Burma campaign are gathered here to renew old comradeships
17:14and to remember fallen brothers
17:16at Yang Gang Yong and Rangoon
17:20we remember how it was fought
17:23the old way
17:25the honourable way
17:27body to body
17:29bayonet to bayonet
17:32and that swift exhilarating sweep of victory
17:35that carried us over the Irrawaddy
17:37and in the Mandalay
17:40and there we met the Japanese army
17:42and we toy it apart
17:48yes gentlemen
17:50we military men will always have our past glories to look back on
17:56but what of this new generation
17:59these young men and women for whom some of the best of us gave our lives
18:04decline
18:07irrelevance
18:07and the devaluation of pound sterling
18:11that is the sunless future that faces them
18:14for them
18:16the white heat of revolution is not a forging heat
18:20it is a melting heat
18:22it melts
18:24it melts the silver of our battle on us
18:26and reduces to cinders the very foundation of our economy
18:30our currency
18:35so
18:37if the only glories available to this nation
18:40are its past glories
18:44then let us cherish them now
18:50come you back you British soldier
18:53come you back
18:58who will join me
19:01ship me somewhere east of Suez
19:04where the best is like the worst
19:08where there are no ten commandments
19:11and a man can raise a thirst
19:14for the temple bells are calling
19:16and it's there that I would be
19:19by the old Mo Mine Pagoda
19:22looking lazy at the sea
19:26on the road to Manderley
19:29where the old Fittillet
19:32with us sick beneath the orange
19:36when we went to Manderley
19:40on the road to Manderley
19:44where the flying face is led
19:47and the dawn comes up like thunder
19:50out of China
19:52of course today
20:24Not my matter.
20:25Excuse me.
20:26Cecil King.
20:28I hope to talk to you, sir, to express my sympathy at the way you've been treated by the government.
20:33A shameful piece of political grandstanding and opportunism.
20:37You're very kind.
20:39Well, this country needs great men more than ever to restore confidence, inspire us, and perhaps even lead us out
20:46of the mire.
20:48It must have been made very clear to me that my leadership days are over.
20:52My colleagues and I don't believe that, sir, not for a minute.
20:57As a matter of fact, we'd be delighted if you'd agree to have lunch with us at Threadneedle Street one
21:02day.
21:03Bank of England?
21:04We've been working on a proposal which we'd very much like to put to you.
21:13So.
21:13Bank of England?
21:39Thank you, Mr. Ed, but there is no need for such formalities.
21:44In the world of farming, it is you who are the roi.
21:47You are very gentle, madame, and indulgent.
21:50I doubt that you will be flat.
21:53All right. All right.
21:55Allons-y.
21:57Bonjour.
22:01And, of course, it was Manin Commissage who came out of Bidangin, a magnificent taxpayer.
22:07Oh, and his grandchild, a white settler.
22:10Oh, that's right. You had a tremendous success with it.
22:13Yes, I'm a big wonderful sprinter.
22:16Are these your stud books?
22:17Indeed, ma'am. And I think you will find some very familiar names in them.
22:22Yes, I guess I will.
22:24If I'm not mistaken, this one.
22:27Oh, gosh, yes. My grandfather's one of his favorites.
22:32What would you say, six months?
22:33Hmm, yes, I'd say so.
22:35Nice temperament, warm-blooded, not too skittish.
22:38Indeed.
22:39Look at her hocks.
22:41Oh, yes.
22:42Very well, proportionate.
22:43Excellent line to the back.
22:44Yes.
22:46Come here.
22:55It was extraordinary.
22:57Not just their facilities, their entire attitude of breeding, but the fact they keep their fells and their yearlings so
23:03close.
23:04Yes.
23:05While we send ours off to greys in Ireland.
23:09Tell me honestly, is it over?
23:12Have we slipped too far behind?
23:14Not yet, ma'am.
23:15But, if you want to keep up, you do need to act decisively now.
23:20It'd mean rethinking the operation from top to toe, changing the personnel, changing the approach.
23:26Yes.
23:27And, currently, there is a drain of the best British racehorses to America.
23:31You have to ask yourself, why?
23:35You don't think I should go there, too?
23:37Well, obviously, from a racing perspective, it would be ideal.
23:40Just for a day or two.
23:42But, er, won't you be needed at home?
23:46Well, they've always got mummy.
23:48Me being away is good for her.
23:50She hates feeling old, and superannuated, and surplus to requirements.
23:54I'm sure she's relishing being the big chief again.
24:12Thank you, sir.
24:16Mr. King?
24:20The Great Britain of our childhood is dying before us.
24:25The country is bankrupt, our national security is in tatters, our allies are in despair.
24:31And, on our current trajectory, by 1970, we will be a vassal state.
24:37A pariah.
24:39I don't know about you, sir, but I'd sooner die than stand idly by and watch this happen.
24:44And to that end, my associates and I have come up with a plan to put the country back on
24:51track.
24:52Which is?
24:55Replacing the Prime Minister and installing a new emergency government.
25:01What?
25:02And in his place, we would need to install an inspirational figurehead.
25:07Someone who could unite the nation, command its respect.
25:11Someone who had stepped into a national leadership role before.
25:15Now, there are some obvious candidates, but frankly, none would be as good as you, sir.
25:19No, no, no. This is quite unthinkable.
25:22At this point, I should close my ears.
25:28Despite my own very profound reservations regarding our Prime Minister, what you're talking about is effectively a coup.
25:35And I can have nothing whatsoever to do with it.
25:38In peacetime, it's true, an intervention like this would be unconstitutional.
25:45But we believe this is no longer peacetime.
25:49And the circumstances are unprecedented and quite exceptional.
25:56Gerald.
25:58In order to hijack control of the economy, Wilson and his socialist colleagues have devised a plan.
26:05Plan Brutus, which would strip the Bank of England of all its powers,
26:10freeze the sterling balances of foreign governments,
26:14and enforce crash cuts in defence spending.
26:18Bankers cannot be allowed to run the show.
26:20The Bank of England has known about gold pouring out of the country since Monday and has done nothing to
26:26stop it.
26:27What is our response?
26:28The imposition of exchange controls, the crash cuts in defence expenditure, and the compulsory acquisition of all privately held overseas
26:37securities.
26:38Sure of hands.
26:43It is an effective declaration of war.
26:47On freedom, democracy and capitalism.
26:51We must act now.
26:54Not just to save Britain, but the world.
26:57We are proposing a radical revolution led by bankers, businessmen and the armed forces.
27:03Professionals who can save us from amateurism, incompetence and Russian infiltration.
27:09And as our interim leader, we can think of no one better than you, sir.
27:27This is all very interesting.
27:34May I suggest that we meet again?
27:38In 48 hours.
27:42Sorry.
27:51With the pound down and the rest later, I suppose that sums it up.
27:55Evaluation of a gigantic loan that we all have to pay back.
27:58Britain now finds itself looking at a complete reversal of government policy after three years of devaluation and denials.
28:08Outside 10 Downing Street, protesters gathered.
28:11Is the reality of what a devalued pound...
28:30If bring you back and worn out the limit, your friend.
28:33Let's make a statement on words, Mr Hancock.
28:34This is a great轉ess.
28:35A channel on words, Mr Hancock?
28:35Will the youtuber?
28:35Yes, sir?
28:36Why only do you get around to pare to a different analytics before three years of these
28:37as you came up from a daily basis?ốngyes?
28:37I'm sure
28:38he goes with h glacier. They're on
28:41a daily basis. Um... The
28:42Ezra's
28:42a man? Why don't you
28:42,錢? Yes. This is
28:43and you even know this isn't a fiscal Score.
28:43for the same money.
28:44A lot of imported food stamps will come off.
28:47Iran settles a fire for off the feet.
28:52On Monday, after the announcement,
28:54the stock exchange was empty.
28:55There was no training.
28:57Outside in Tron Morton Street,
28:59brokers and jobbers crowned together
29:00to try and sort out what the problem is.
29:05Morning, boys.
29:06Morning, sir. Morning, Miss Pancock.
29:08They're testing for minerals.
29:10Sulfur, calcium.
29:11Correct nutrition is vital, ma'am.
29:14When it comes to the bone strength,
29:16the bone formation in the folds were raised.
29:18Yes, sir.
29:19Tommy's one of the best.
29:21Thanks, sir.
29:21Does Tommy ever come to England?
29:22Oh, no, no, no.
29:24Oh.
29:25Paris worked up to find the transfers
29:27on the brink of civil war.
29:28With the rebel generals in Algeria sent paratroopers,
29:32defense measures were quickly put into operation.
29:38All the airports were closed to flights in and out.
29:41Nobody in the capital knew the rebels' intentions,
29:44but prastic bomb outranges here and elsewhere
29:46showed that pro-rebel sympathizers were on the power.
29:50They struck in the garden
29:51in the old way of Wittonis
29:52and at the Osterman station.
29:54Not with any serious debate.
29:56These are veterinary students
29:58we've invited to spend time here at the farm.
30:00They learned reproductive management,
30:02neonatal and foal management,
30:04herd health management.
30:06and what we're aiming for
30:07is better integration
30:08between our practices here at the stud
30:10and the clinical research
30:11being conducted in the wider world.
30:17Remind me of the year, Porche.
30:18What, 1967?
30:19Why?
30:20Because having seen what I've just seen,
30:22one might think it 2067.
30:24In terms of technology
30:26and their management of the pasture
30:28and their willingness to embrace new ideas,
30:30the Americans aren't just on a different level,
30:32they're on a different planet.
30:34and their racing manager.
30:35Wasn't he impressive?
30:37When you think about Cecil, by comparison.
30:39Yes, he is getting on that.
30:41150?
30:42Well, not quite that,
30:43but certainly 80.
30:4520-year-old Cecil.
30:46The Van Hur of Newmarket.
30:49But he had such success with your father.
30:51And grandfather.
30:52You know he was wounded at the Somme.
30:54Yes.
30:55So, probably time for someone a little bit younger.
30:58The question is,
30:59who is there?
31:01What about Gordon Richards?
31:04He's with the wine stocks.
31:05They've never let him go.
31:07Or with David McCall.
31:11He's good.
31:13Can you honestly see him fitting in?
31:16No.
31:16Try that.
31:17Oh.
31:30Would you ever consider it?
31:33Me?
31:33Why not?
31:35You're brilliant.
31:36And you know the family inside out.
31:39I'm honoured.
31:41But I'm also very ambitious.
31:45I could never accept,
31:46unless I felt sure,
31:47we had every chance of success
31:49at the highest level.
31:51And in terms of our research,
31:53there's still one thing
31:55that we really need to see.
31:56What?
31:56They're training facilities.
31:59If we're going to gain the edge,
32:01there's still a lot to learn
32:02from the Americans.
32:04Unfortunately,
32:04how much longer
32:04is that going to take?
32:07Well.
32:12Yes, please.
32:13If I first thought
32:15that we could be in the image
32:16about that, I...
32:41gentlemen,
32:42in the past decade alone,
32:45There have, by my reckoning, been 73 coups in 46 different countries around the world.
32:53And the success of some of these might encourage us.
32:57In Ghana, two years ago, President Nkrumah was ousted with just 500 men.
33:04And in 1961, in South Korea, Major General Park Chung-hee seized power with 3,500 men.
33:13And in 1964, in Gabon, just 150 men were able to arrest President Nkrumah
33:21and thus gain control over the levers of state power.
33:25And, of course, it was with just one legion that Caesar crossed the Rubicon.
33:31And perhaps we would not seek to follow his fate, a sic semper tyrannis gentleman.
33:38And what all successful insurgencies have in common are five key elements.
33:45Control of the media, control of the economy, and the capture of administrative targets,
33:51for which you need the fourth element, the loyalty of the military.
33:56Now, in Ghana and Gabon, this can be achieved with a handful of battalions.
34:01But here, in the United Kingdom, we would need to secure Parliament,
34:09Whitehall, the Ministry of Defence, and the Cabinet Office.
34:13The Prime Minister will be arrested, of course, along with other politicians still loyal.
34:18We would have to shut down the airports, air traffic control.
34:22Same with the train stations.
34:24Curfews will be put in place, martial law declared.
34:28And I haven't even mentioned the police.
34:32It would take tens of thousands of unquestioningly loyal servicemen.
34:36And even in my heyday, I could never command that.
34:41Which brings me to the fifth element.
34:45Legitimacy.
34:47Now, our government draws its strength from long-established institutions that support it.
34:53The courts, body of common law, the Constitution.
34:59For any action against the state to succeed, you'd have to overthrow these as well.
35:04But in a highly evolved democracy such as ours, their authority is sacrosanct.
35:12Which is why, gentlemen, a coup d'etat in the United Kingdom doesn't stand a chance.
35:29Unless...
35:33Unless...
35:34Unless...
35:34Unless we have the support of the one person not yet mentioned.
35:39Do you see the temper?
35:41Yeah, we like that.
35:42The crown has at its disposal unique constitutional powers, which could still make something like this possible.
35:52In 1834, William IV used them to dismiss his government in the face of opposition from the House.
35:58And in 1920, the Emergency Powers Act was passed, which gives the sovereign power, in certain circumstances, to declare a
36:07state of emergency by proclamation.
36:10Meaning, our queen could dissolve parliament, and appoint a new government, and a prime minister as well.
36:18Well, she's also a commander-in-chief of the armed forces.
36:21They swear allegiance to her, and not to parliament.
36:25So, could count on their support to see it through.
36:31She is our Caesar.
36:39And you think she might entertain this idea?
36:42The circumstances are certainly compelling.
36:45I've made a list here of exactly how compelling.
36:49And as her second cousin, I am in an ideal position to ask.
37:04I'm not hungry.
37:05No.
37:10Somehow, today has managed to be one of the most enjoyable days of my life.
37:15And at the same time, one of the most depressing.
37:22Telephone call for you, ma'am?
37:23Lord Manbatten.
37:24I'll call him back.
37:33If I tell you something, do you promise it will stay between us?
37:36Of course.
37:40This is how I'd like to spend all my time.
37:45Owning horses, breeding horses, racing horses.
37:48It's what makes me truly happy.
37:53And I actually think it's what I was born to do.
37:56Until the other thing came along.
37:58That someone else was born to do.
38:00That they elected not to do.
38:02Which meant that first my father, and then I, had to do a job we were never meant to do.
38:08Well, you've managed to make it look like the other thing is the only thing you were ever meant to
38:13do.
38:16You're kind.
38:18But it isn't.
38:34And on days like today, in places like this, in company like this,
38:43you get a glimpse of what it all might have been like.
38:48The unlived life.
38:52And how much happier it might have made me.
39:02Not now.
39:07Who did? I just sniffed.
39:08Slightly.
39:09I shall have to grovel now.
39:10No, it's alright. He'll understand.
39:13I'm so sorry, Your Majesty.
39:15Yes, alright. I'm coming.
39:16Honestly, only Dickie.
39:25Yes, thank you, Master. I'll talk to you.
39:27I'll talk to you, Master.
39:33I'll talk to you, Master.
39:34I'll talk to you, Master.
39:41I'll talk to you, Master.
39:47Majesty.
39:54You are persistent. Is it really so important?
39:59Yes, Your Majesty.
40:01Prime Minister.
40:05Ma'am, I have reason to believe there is currently a full-blown plot developing against me
40:11and the democratically elected Labour government that governs in your name,
40:17being led by a senior member of your family.
40:21Who?
40:24Lord Mountbatten.
40:27And that he, in cahoots with Cecil King, the chairman of the Mirror Group Newspapers,
40:32has been attempting to overthrow this government.
40:38Now, I feel compelled to remind, Your Majesty, that tolerance of the royal family is hanging by a thread as
40:44it is.
40:47Now, throughout my time in office, I have done my level best to protect you.
40:54But if members of the royal family were to interfere with the political business of the day, I would be
41:00left with no option but to side with the Republican elements of my cabinet, which I have successfully controlled until
41:08now,
41:11and take steps...
41:13and take steps.
41:16Leave it with me, Prime Minister.
41:20Your Majesty.
41:21Your Majesty.
41:29I don't know.
41:54I don't know.
42:28I don't know.
42:57Lord Mountbatten, Your Majesty.
43:10Your Majesty.
43:17You asked to see me?
43:19I did.
43:21Well, great minds think alike.
43:23As it happens, I was planning to drop by myself...
43:28on a matter of great importance.
43:41I'm getting a feeling that I've not had since Dieppe.
43:46That I'm walking into a trap.
43:51I'd like to think you had that sinking feeling on another occasion recently.
43:55When going to see your friends at the Bank of England.
43:59Is it even true?
44:02Yes, I did go to lunch at the Bank of England...
44:05to meet and listen to people who are horrified by what's happening to the country.
44:10A horror I hope you share.
44:13Perhaps.
44:14But conspiring with them is not the solution.
44:17It is the beginning of a solution.
44:21Why are you doing this?
44:22Why would you protect a man like Wilson?
44:33I am protecting the Prime Minister.
44:37I am protecting the Constitution.
44:40I am protecting democracy.
44:45But if the man of the heart of that democracy threatens to destroy it...
44:48are we supposed to just stand by and do nothing?
44:51Yes.
44:52Doing nothing is exactly what we do.
44:54And bide our time.
44:56And wait for the people that voted him in to vote him out again.
44:59If indeed that is what they decide to do.
45:21I am sure you find it near impossible to do nothing.
45:24And to not have the role and the responsibilities you have always had.
45:29You were born to be busy.
45:30And to lead.
45:32But you still have a huge role to play in this family.
45:37A father figure to my husband.
45:40An uncle and a guide to me.
45:43A king to make in Charles.
45:45Not to mention a brother to your sister.
45:49When was the last time you even visited her?
45:52Cheered her up?
46:00That would be a greater service to the Crown than leading unconstitutional coups.
46:14And I was Yeah.
46:42I have many help.
46:42I know his car.
46:42A man that is my brother.
47:10Nice of you to find the time.
47:12These days, I've nothing but time, and too little time.
47:30The four of us.
47:32What?
47:33The four of us.
47:38Look at us now.
47:40Only two left.
47:41Your left?
47:44Not me.
47:45I'm on the way out.
47:47Nonsense.
47:49There came a moment around the time I turned 70, when it dawned on me that I was no longer
47:57a participant, rather a spectator.
48:01I've discovered that for myself.
48:04Then it's just a matter of waiting and not getting in the way.
48:20I hear you have been getting in the way.
48:23I've told you that.
48:25Oh, there are no secrets in this place.
48:29Did you get a dressing down from our doughty queen?
48:35Yes, I did.
48:38Oh, what's so funny?
48:40Well, that's funny.
48:42The little girl admonishing the grand old admiral of the fleet.
48:47Well, I'm glad it amuses you.
48:49Because the situation this country is facing is anything but amusing.
48:56Oh, who cares?
49:00Honestly.
49:04One of the few joys of being as old as we both are is that it's not our problem.
49:12Not really our country either.
49:15What are you talking about?
49:16Of course it's our country.
49:18We Battenbergs have no country.
49:23Our family might have kings and queens in its ranks, but we're mongrels too.
49:31Part German, part Greek, part nowhere at all.
49:38Well, this is my country.
49:43Gave me a home.
49:44Gave me a name.
49:47And in return, I've given it my life.
49:56And to see it like this breaks my heart.
50:05Oh, my God.
50:10I'm sorry.
50:34You must sleep, sister.
50:49Princess Alice, nowhere at all.
50:54You must sleep, sister.
50:57You must sleep, sister.
51:00You must sleep, sister.
51:37You must sleep, sister.
51:38You must sleep, sister.
52:02You must sleep, sister.
52:17You.
52:20Don't sound so surprised.
52:21I am.
52:22It's been so long.
52:27So how was France, America?
52:32Educational.
52:35The trip was supposed to be a week.
52:37You were gone almost a month?
52:38Yes.
52:41With Porchy?
52:43Yes.
52:46Was that fun?
52:49We went on racing business.
52:51It was a fact-finding expedition.
52:54Right.
52:56If you have something to say, say it now.
52:58Otherwise, if you don't mind, I'm busy.
53:00I've heard you've appointed him as your racing manager.
53:03I have.
53:03Which means he'll be around all the time.
53:05Yes, with any luck.
53:07Good for you.
53:08Good for all of us.
53:19Good for you.
53:22Wow.
53:49Guy that I heard about Dickie.
53:52A coup?
53:53Yes, can you believe it?
53:57It must be hard getting old.
54:05Yes.
54:19I'll be up in a minute.
54:22Oh, will you?
54:23Yes, I thought so.
54:26Unless you'd rather I wasn't.
54:29I'll see you in a minute.
54:58Sure, I'm going to take you in a minute.
54:59What if I have to do?
54:59What if I had to do this?
54:59I don't know.
54:59I'll go to you in a minute.
55:00But then you're going to take you inside the door.
55:00I'm going to take you inside the door.
