01:08Oh Margaret
01:10I forget what about
01:12There are so many
01:14Exchanges of views these days
01:21I thought things had moved on
01:24They've moved on alright
01:25He's moved on
01:28On to the next one
01:36He can't help himself
01:39My bright epic little snapper
01:45I can't help himself
01:52I can't help himself
02:18I don't know.
02:50You've never told me about the wallpaper.
02:52The rogues' gallery.
02:54Isn't it fun?
02:56I did it to remind Princess Margaret that her family has as many skeletons in the cupboard
03:01as anyone else's.
03:03House of Windsor.
03:05House of horrors, my leg.
03:07I hope she saw the funny side.
03:10God, no.
03:11She said as long as that wallpaper was there, she'd never come to the house.
03:14Not that she needed an excuse.
03:17She always hated it here.
03:19She considers it as ugly, misshapen, and common as me.
03:24The failure of our marriage could not be better encapsulated by the two houses, the two dwellings
03:31in which she and I are most comfortable.
03:35Hers is some insect-infested gin palace given to her by fawning sycophants.
03:43And this is mine.
03:49Oh, you too.
03:51I know.
03:53And poor you to get caught up in it.
03:57My advice would be to escape while you still can.
04:01I'll never be able to give you what you want.
04:04She'll never divorce me.
04:07She might if she falls in love with someone else.
04:12What makes you think that'll happen?
04:15Well, you did.
04:18Didn't you?
04:23You're right.
04:28I did.
04:30I did.
04:58You're right.
05:00I did.
05:04I did.
05:05I did.
06:06That was her.
06:09The Thing.
06:10She has a name you know.
06:13Yes.
06:14And, um, I have been told it.
06:17But I can only remember, so I call her The Thing.
06:21Lucy Lindsay Hall.
06:22Mm-hmm, the thing car she climbed into outside look very much like Tony's
06:32I suppose they're in Sussex now ugly little house
06:44He thinks I'll take the humiliation lying down does it it's got another thing coming
06:54I can think of several couples of whom it could be observed that having not found the contentment they desired
07:05within matrimony
07:07Chosen to live apart
07:10Tony and I will never let go one another
07:12It's not just because divorce is incompatible with my faith because
07:19This is just how we like it
07:24War is our love brutal fight to the death is our mating dance
07:29I speak for both of us when I say we wouldn't want it any other way
07:37Contentment is dull
07:38I can tell you that
07:39And Tony and I are anything but dull
07:42You can now say with mere certainty that neither party will achieve a majority
07:47So, the clock is now ticking for 10 feet to firm an alliance with Jeremy Falk's Liberal Party
07:53If he can't, you might rise to a return to power for Harold Wilson
07:56If you can call a minority government power
07:59What a mess
08:00Honestly, can you remember a time when the country was in worse shape?
08:04Or one had as little confidence in one's leaders
08:07Speaking of bad shape
08:08One wakes up in the morning flinching
08:11How could matters get any worse? What more could possibly go wrong?
08:14And then you come down to breakfast, you see the newspapers and you realise
08:18They've done it again
08:19Margaret's birthday is coming up
08:21I mean, right now
08:22The United Kingdom is the equivalent of a patient dying on the operating table
08:26And the surgeons
08:26No, the butchers
08:28No, sorry
08:28The murderers responsible for causing that death are seeking re-election
08:32Instead of throwing them in jail
08:34The people like lemmings queuing up to extend their bloody contracts
08:38She called me late last night
08:40Said she had something important to discuss
08:43Who?
08:44Margaret
08:44She's run out of tonic?
08:47No
08:47He's been knocked up by one of the footmen
08:50Philip
08:51You wouldn't put it past her
08:53I worry it's Tony
08:59Eddie?
09:03Mr. Heath came to tell me that he was unable to form a co-relation with the Ulster Unionists
09:07Or the Liberals
09:08Which left him with no alternative but to resign
09:10At which point, I don't mind admitting, I let out an unconstitutional cheer
09:15Huzzah!
09:16Privately, I hope
09:17Well, it's not his politics I object to, so much as his company
09:20And now, Mr. Wilson, who I must say looks very tired, not at all well
09:24Is back again as Prime Minister of a minority government
09:27And the best we can hope for is that he can survive until the next election in the auction
09:47I have asked you all here, my family, on the occasion of my birthday
09:55Happy birthday
09:57Happy birthday
09:57Happy birthday, Margaret
10:24The first time of my birthday, he's been opposed sanctions
10:26What?
10:27What kind of sanctions?
10:29No more invitations to royal events
10:31No more royal photographs
10:33No more access to crown property
10:35It's in where it hurts
10:37Punish him
10:39Draw blood
10:40Where is he now?
10:42He left the country this morning
10:44To make one of his films
10:46Oh, Ghana, or did you say Guinea?
10:49Gabon
10:49What?
10:50With the thing
10:51The what?
10:52I'll explain later
10:53I rather liked his last film
10:55Is that the one about dwarves?
10:56I'll tell you what I liked about it
10:57Yes, it's sore
10:58It had compassion
11:00It had kindness
11:01In fact, I think that's the thing I most like about Tony
11:04And his wit
11:05Yes
11:05The fact that he's generous enough to flirt with his mother-in-law
11:09He's gonna throw up
11:12He cares
11:13All right, Mummy
11:14He has a heart
11:15Yeah, not that his wife or children have noticed
11:17Does his charity work for the disabled
11:19And the way he was at Aberfan
11:21Yes
11:22Yes
11:22Yes
11:23Yes
11:24Enough
11:26Enough
11:32Why do you do this, Mummy?
11:35Why do you all do this?
11:37Why do you always, always take a side?
11:41This is my birthday party
11:45And when I tell you that my husband is out of the country
11:49Betraying me with another woman
11:51Instead of supporting me
11:55And condemning him
11:56You just sit here praising him to the sky
12:04My family
12:05My own flesh and blood
12:08My birthday
12:14My birthday
12:15Perhaps we'll just stick to the back teeth of you
12:17And have sympathy for him
12:19Philip
12:19Well...
12:21Am I wrong?
12:23Like, hands up anyone who thinks I'm wrong
12:26Anne
12:27Anne
12:30Anne
12:31Anne
12:33We should eat these before they get cold, shouldn't we?
12:35Mrs. Joy
12:36She'll be all right when we eat them
12:37I hate them
12:38I hate them
12:39I hate them, I hate them, I hate them
12:40I hate them
12:41Why don't you come up here, ma'am?
12:43Come to Glen
12:44We've invited a few guests for the weekend
12:48Come here
12:49You might even enjoy it
12:52Ha ha
12:52Nice
12:54Hi
13:01Hi
13:04Hi
17:42He's quite the virtuoso.
17:50Where's him?
17:52The one with all his clothes on.
17:53Well, that's Roddy.
17:57You must know his brother, Di.
18:00Or his father, Harry Llewellyn, the Olympic showjumper.
18:04Roddy.
18:06Roddy.
18:09Roddy.
18:10Roddy.
18:12Hello.
18:14Your Royal Highness.
18:16How do you do?
18:18How do you do?
18:19How do you do?
18:19You're perspiring?
18:22You're perspiring.
18:22I am, ma'am.
18:23So, why don't you jump in the pool?
18:25Well, I didn't bring any trunks.
18:27That was stupid.
18:27No, it wasn't.
18:28Yes, it was.
18:29I just said it was.
18:30It can't be stupid.
18:32I don't possess any trunks.
18:34It's not just stupid.
18:35That's absurd.
18:37Where's the nearest town?
18:41Oh.
18:46You know, this really wasn't necessary.
18:49On the contrary.
18:50It was essential.
18:52I mean, everyone else coming along too.
18:56Hmm?
18:56They're not coming with us.
18:58I wouldn't let them.
19:00No, they're going for lunch while we go shopping.
19:05So, apart from owning a wayfully inadequate wardrobe,
19:11what is it that you do?
19:12A research assistant at the College of Arms,
19:16which involves genealogical research
19:19and boning up on heraldry.
19:21Hmm.
19:21I also have a mobile disco company called Vibrations,
19:26and I clean the floors in a gallery
19:27on the Fulham Road at night.
19:29But all of this is just to fund my real passion.
19:31Have we got to the end of the answer yet?
19:34I'm rather regretting asking.
19:36What nice hands you've got?
19:40Have I?
19:41Hmm.
19:42Hmm.
19:43How nice you've not noticed.
19:46So nice when a man is unaware of his best features.
19:51So sad when a lady hides hers.
19:55Did you mean these?
19:57Please?
19:59No.
20:00What then?
20:03Your smile.
20:09I forgot now.
20:22Where are we?
20:24Peebles, ma'am.
20:27Where?
20:32This is the hotel.
20:34We'll be in the bar waiting for you.
20:36The department store's just over there on the right.
20:38You can't miss it.
20:40Would you?
20:41Please.
20:52Thank God.
20:55We've stumbled upon an experiment in breeding.
21:02Your royal highness.
21:04Gentlemen's bathing trunks, please.
21:07What size are you?
21:09Uh, small.
21:10Sincerely hope not.
21:12He means slim.
21:24Did we ever get to the bit where you told me your passion in life?
21:27No.
21:30Then what is it?
21:32Gardening.
21:33Ma'am.
21:35Ah.
21:38These, please.
21:40No.
21:42These.
21:42I'm paying.
21:44I choose.
21:45Try them all.
21:56Oh.
22:08You know, not a garden.
22:10It means doing.
22:12Do you?
22:13I imagine you must have an army of gardens.
22:15Hmm.
22:15I don't believe everything you hear.
22:18You know, my garden is quite neglected.
22:21Especially the one in Mustique.
22:23Where?
22:25It's a small private island in the Caribbean.
22:31Oh, lovely.
22:32Hmm.
22:33My husband hates it.
22:35Since I hate my husband.
22:37What he thinks is irrelevant.
22:38You know, in the Caribbean, I have one of my favorite trees.
22:43The silk cotton tree.
22:46The challenge, for any gardener, is to judge the right amount of pruning.
22:50That's so.
22:52Well, you need very nimble fingers.
23:03And do you have nimble as well as pretty fingers?
23:09I do.
23:14Hmm.
23:15Perfect.
23:16She goes.
23:23She's playing all night.
23:26Yes.
23:26Yeah, the music's all right.
23:31Mama's got to squeeze, but daddy never sleeps at night.
23:50I'm just a girl, a wonderful girl, I'm the sweetest one in town.
23:55You can sit for miles around, but not one like me, kind of all.
24:01You've got a smile, a wonderful smile, and a certain little way.
24:06And every time the boys get near me, they look at me and say,
24:13Red hot mama, red hot mama, you're the one we meet.
24:19Red hot mama, sun charmer, yes, indeed.
24:23They say that I should be in the folly's, but tomorrow's, I have a pair of boys, just like old
24:34Svengali's.
24:36I confess that you possess the sweetest charms in town.
24:41And unless I miss my guests, the boys all follow you around.
24:46I'll make a music master, drop his fears.
24:49I'll make a bald-handed man, start the air in the middle.
24:52Red hot mama, red hot mama.
24:56Red hot mama, red hot mama.
24:59You're the one we need.
25:02Red hot mama, sun charmer, yes, indeed.
25:07Red hot mama, red hot mama, red hot mama, red hot mama, red hot mama, red hot mama, red hot
25:15mama.
25:16Red hot mama, red hot mama, red hot mama, red hot mama, red hot mama, red hot mama, red hot
25:21mama.
25:22When she went to bed, did you notice?
25:24Of course I noticed.
25:25Everyone noticed.
25:26The top of the stairs, instead of turning right.
25:29He turned left.
25:30What have we done?
25:32This could come back to haunt us.
25:35Why?
25:35It would look like we've encouraged the Queen's sister to betray her husband.
25:40She's not betraying Tony.
25:42She's with Tony.
25:44Can't you see?
25:45Slim, Welsh, reddish hair.
25:48The two men are virtually identical.
25:50Roddy's a carbon copy of Tony.
25:53Just younger.
25:55I hadn't thought of that.
26:18Lord Snowden, ma'am.
26:26Your Majesty.
26:28Dear Tony.
26:32So kind of you to come.
26:33I know how busy you are.
26:42Before we start,
26:46just look what I found in my studio the other day.
26:51How young we were.
26:53How pretty you were.
26:54Oh, stop it.
26:55Like Vivian Leigh.
26:58I've always loved this picture.
27:01Yes.
27:02Gosh.
27:03Philip.
27:04Not looking cross for once.
27:05Miraculous.
27:07All yours, ma'am.
27:08For me?
27:09With my compliments.
27:10Oh.
27:10And now,
27:13to the main business.
27:19Voila.
27:21A mug.
27:24And?
27:30A teapot.
27:35And?
27:40Oh.
27:41A commemorative plate.
27:46And a teapot.
27:47With the dates
27:491952 to 1977.
27:54The powers that be
27:55thought it might be nice
27:56if someone from inside the firm
27:58were to design
27:59some of the memorabilia.
28:01Oh, Tony, you are clever.
28:02Always happy to help my family.
28:05Are you?
28:07Let's talk about that for a minute.
28:09May I keep these as well?
28:11Yes.
28:11Yes, of course.
28:13Now, I don't want to
28:16pry
28:16or lecture anyone
28:18about what goes on
28:20in a marriage.
28:22In my experience,
28:23people find a way
28:23to do what they need to do
28:24to remain happy
28:25or sane.
28:27I often think
28:28turning a blind eye
28:29is the best approach.
28:32Things work themselves out
28:33in the end.
28:35But recently,
28:37Margaret has been
28:38so wretched
28:40and so lost.
28:44And she's so in love with you.
28:46I wouldn't be a responsible
28:47elder sister
28:48or head of the family
28:49if I didn't say
28:50how happy
28:52it would make us all,
28:53but particularly Margaret,
28:55if you two were
28:56to patch things up again.
28:57even if just
28:58for the children.
29:01I quite agree.
29:04And had been
29:05giving the matter
29:06serious thought.
29:07Had you really?
29:09Yes.
29:09But then
29:10I heard
29:12the latest developments.
29:14Who she's met.
29:17What she's doing.
29:19How she's
29:22conducting herself.
29:26What latest developments?
29:29What happens.
29:51Get him.
29:53How?
29:56How it happens.
29:57How it happens.

33:25I smell blossom and the trees are bare
33:30All day long I seem to walk on earth
33:34I wonder why
33:39Enjoyed it, you too?
33:41No, no, no, no, I don't sing. I don't sing.
33:43Oh, turn it up!
33:45Turn it up! I love this song!
33:47A little bit louder!
33:48On the way!
33:49Let's sing the tale first!
33:51Let's go!
33:54Oh, turn it up!
34:04Oh, it's a wild cracker!
34:21Happiness is a fickle creature.
34:24Constant companion to some, hides herself completely a mother's.
34:30She's being an elusive creature to me.
34:35But here she is, finally, sitting among us.
34:39And I say, welcome.
34:43I won't mention how late her arrival is.
34:48Who?
34:49Hmm?
34:52Happiness, dear.
34:55Oh, never mind.
35:01Cream?
35:02I'm not boning, am I?
35:04Not yet.
35:06Better safe than sorry.
35:07Go, go!
35:10Go!
35:11Go!
35:13Go!
35:15Go!
35:16Go!
35:17Go!
35:21Go!
35:30Go!
35:37How could she be so stupid?
35:40Who?
36:11Your Majesty.
36:16The floozy and the scrounger, lady and the trep.
36:19It's not entirely Margaret's fault.
36:21She had gone a long way to be private.
36:23Spending 12 hours on an aeroplane doesn't give you a license to behave like a whore.
36:27You must bring her back straight away.
36:29That won't be easy.
36:30She doesn't take well to my orders.
36:32Fine.
36:33Then she can take mine.
36:34See to it, please, Martin.
36:38Are you still here?
36:52We don't know all the facts yet.
36:53What is this?
36:54If it's not a fact, that is a fact, that's a fact, that's a fact, and that's a fact.
37:00It's not a fact.
37:24It's not a fact.
37:42You've seen the papers.
37:44I have.
37:47What's the matter?
37:48Thought you'd be happy.
37:51Why would I be happy?
37:54Because now we have what we've been waiting for.
37:57Margaret in love with someone else.
38:00Legitimate grounds for separation in a way that will still protect your name.
38:04Your reputation.
38:07Our future.
38:08And?
38:10You expect me to jump up and down with Jai?
38:13Why?
38:15She's my wife.
38:18Mother of my children.
38:30Was there anything else?
38:32The drama is not just what they do with waiting on them.
38:35I'll walk with them those gifts every hour.
38:48We're getting� двух people out there.
38:49That's all, right?
38:51Th looked it up while our husbands came together.
39:00They shut up the spirits!
39:01It was a drum and kaboo as they killed again.
39:01I'll walk with them.
39:28Come on, man.
40:00Come on, man.
40:24I didn't expect to find you here.
40:26Where else would you expect to find me?
40:28It's my home.
40:30Used to be your home.
40:32It's still my home.
40:35What is he doing in it?
40:37Hello, sir.
40:41I would ask where you've got the nerve to come here if I thought you had nerve.
40:46But looking at you, I can tell you've no nerve at all.
40:49You're just stupid.
40:50Come on, get out.
40:50Don't you dare talk to him like that.
40:53I'll speak to him whichever way I like.
40:55In my house.
40:56My house.
40:57Our house.
40:58Ducky.
40:59No, not ours anymore.
41:06Please leave.
41:08I won't leave.
41:10You don't want me to leave.
41:12I'm desperate for you to leave.
41:14Desperate.
41:15Like a patient.
41:17Desperate to cut out a cancer.
41:19Think very carefully about what you're saying.
41:22Every game has its limits.
41:24It's not a game anymore.
41:29He's a child.
41:31He's no idea how to make him happy.
41:34You made me happy.
41:35Couldn't make me any more wretched than you have.
41:38You were wretched when I found you.
41:42Your little love notes.
41:44You leave me everywhere.
41:45How do I loathe thee?
41:47Let me count the ways.
41:49You look like a Jewish manicurist.
41:51You look like a Maltese landlady.
41:53Little rich, I think, coming from a misshapen cripple.
41:55Oh, yes.
41:56Holy boy.
41:57Hoppity hop, hoppity hop.
41:59Overlooked by his mother because he wasn't strong enough.
42:02Or, well, born enough.
42:04An embarrassment.
42:05Not able-bodied enough.
42:06And if we're talking about overlooked,
42:09you know what this is all about.
42:10Overlooked Margaret with no role, no purpose, no real friends.
42:14Of whom it must have finally been asked.
42:16What is a princess for?
42:20You go after him and I'll divorce you.
42:22Oh, you wouldn't dare.
42:25You go after him and I'll bring you to your knees.
42:28Molly!
42:30Molly!
42:32Molly!
42:34Molly!
43:01It's age.
43:03It happens to us all.
43:04Oh, no, ma'am.
43:05It's not just age.
43:07It's been diagnosed.
43:08It has a name.
43:12Alzheimer's.
43:24I first noticed symptoms two years ago.
43:29I always speak in public without notes.
43:32I have something of a photographic memory.
43:34But then, one day, I dried.
43:40And in the months that followed, I noticed more forgetfulness.
43:49Agitation.
43:52Delusion.
43:55Paranoia.
43:56I shouldn't worry too much.
43:58Several of your predecessors had far more serious afflictions.
44:01And they continued to govern without the public being any the wiser.
44:05Oh, no, ma'am.
44:06It's a mental health issue now.
44:09I shall put myself in the hands of the doctors.
44:15Oh, Prime Minister, I am sorry.
44:17This will come as a terrible shock.
44:19Well, maybe.
44:21No shock lasts longer than 48 hours.
44:25There's too much appetite for the next shock.
44:31I'll miss our sessions terribly.
44:34I don't mind admitting I let out an unconstitutional cheer
44:37when you beat Mr. Heath this time.
44:39Oh.
44:41I always said deep down you're a lefty at heart.
44:44Nothing to do with the politics or just a better companion.
44:47Although I wouldn't have said that first time we met.
44:50No.
44:51You thought I was going to rough you lot up.
44:54And look what a sentimental old royalist I turned out to be.
45:15Your Majesty.
45:31Prime Minister.
45:35If you saw fit to invite your Queen to supper at Downing Street before you left,
45:40she would be honoured.
45:43But that's an honour previously only given to Churchill.
45:48The Duke of Edinburgh and I would like that very much.
45:54So would Mrs. Wilson and I.
46:12Martin?
46:14him. The amount of nitrazepam the princess took was quite critical, ma'am. Nitrazepam?
46:36A sedative, used in short periods for the relief of anxiety and insomnia, based on the numbers
46:51of empty packets we found. You would say more indicative of a cry for attention than a genuine
47:00suicide attempt. A cri de coeur rather than a coup de grace.
47:45Hello, you. Hello, you.
48:07Am I going to get her ticking off? That hadn't been my intention. Maybe perhaps I should.
48:14Why? Because for a while there it was touch and go. So I hear. Did you mean it? Don't
48:29know. Possibly. How do you feel now? Tired.
48:42It's sore. There were tubes. A little bit foolish. Where's Roddy? Gone. Where?
49:00Run for the hills. I hear Moroccan hills. And Tony? Back for the thing. Future Lady Snowden
49:10and I would wager. I'm not very good at it. What? The men. Seem to drive them all back.
49:32I heard. Tony and I are going to separate. Yes, I think that's probably wise. Which I'm afraid
49:39to say will lead to divorce. Yes. The first royal divorce since Henry VIII and Anne of Cleves.
49:49I have a little bit of good news in that department. Which is? If we time it right, the announcement
49:56of your separation might get lost in the Prime Minister's resignation.
50:00I thought Ian just got re-elected. Or did I really miss something? Due to ill health. Alzheimer's.
50:14Sorry? How many does that make it? Prime Minister's. Hmm. Whoever replaces him will be my seventh.
50:23The rest of us drop like flies. But she goes on and on.
50:53For the record, I think there are many things you're good at. Name one that's actually meaningful.
50:59Being a sister. No need to humor me. I'm not. Of all the people everywhere, you are the closest
51:08and most important to me. And if by doing this, you wanted to let me imagine for one minute
51:16what life would be like without you. You succeeded. It would be unbearable.
51:32Then we must both carry on.
52:00Good morning, Your Majesty. Good morning, Your Majesty.
52:33Well, usually when I drive into Broadcasting House just after five in the morning, the most
52:37I'm likely to see is a bridge delivery van or an office cleaner on the way to work. But
52:41this morning, despite the dark skies, there was a feeling of activity. A string of horses
52:45clashing through the streets and knots of people wearing red, white and blue gear drifting down
52:50towards the Fowler Square. But one of those have been up all night to make sure of getting
52:54a good view of the procession. And the price is with them outside Buckingham Palace.
52:59I'm standing in front of Buckingham Palace and I expect the Queen's teesmaid has just
53:02rung her back to consciousness. I expect she's lying there, just coming to and remembering
53:07that this is Jubilee Day. This is a day as gruelling as her coronation 25 years ago, certainly
53:13in ceremonial terms. But she was a bit of a thing in those days. I expect today she's
53:18wondering if the shoes she's going to wear are quite as comfortable as they might be.
53:22Now, the weather looks as though, as I say, as though it's certainly going to hold for the journey out.
53:29What's your view, the Jubilee?
53:35You must do it.
53:38You don't think it might all backfire on me?
53:43Ask yourself, in the time I've been on the throne, what have I actually achieved?
53:47You've been calm, stable and useless and unhelpful.
53:54This country was still great when I came to the throne and now look.
53:57So much for the second Elizabethan age, which Winston talked about.
54:03All that's happened on my watch is the place has fallen apart.
54:06It's only fallen apart if we say it has.
54:10That's the thing about the monarchy.
54:14We paper over the cracks.
54:17And if what we do is loud and grand and confident enough,
54:23no one will notice that all around us it's fallen apart.
54:27That's the point of us.
54:31Not us.
54:33You.
54:37You cannot flinch.
54:40Because if you show a single crack,
54:44we'll see it isn't a crack, but a chasm.
54:48And we'll all fall in.
54:52So you must hold it all together.
54:58Must I do that alone?
55:01There is only one Queen.
55:09And now the poet laureate, Sir John Benjamin.
55:13God save the Queen.
55:17In days of disillusion, however low we've been,
55:21to fire us and inspire us.
55:24God gave to us our Queen.
55:28She exceeded young and beautiful to a much-loved Father's throne.
55:34Serene and kind and beautiful, she holds us as her own.
55:40And 25 years later, so sure her reign has been,
55:46that our great events are greater for the presence of our Queen.
55:54For our monarch and her people, united yet and free,
55:59let the bells from every steeple ring out loud the Jubilee.
56:05Toast K roserun said he's Häns.
