00:00From here in London, under the heading is nobody safe anymore, a royal ruckus has started over the man who
00:06had an audience with Queen Elizabeth, uninvited and unannounced, in the Queen's bedroom in the middle of the night.
00:12The man had cut himself on a broken window and left bloodstains on the Queen's bed.
00:17Yesterday's intruder was able to get through an elaborate system of electronic alarms, as well as past palace guards and
00:23police.
00:24The man was identified as 30-year-old Michael Fagan. A police investigation indicates that Fagan climbed over a fence
00:30into the 51-acre palace grounds during the night.
00:32He then reportedly climbed a drainpipe and entered the royal quarters through a window.
00:36And made his way to the Queen's private bedroom on the first floor. For 10 minutes, he sat talking six
00:41feet away from the Queen. Then he asked her for a cigarette.
00:45According to his mother, he spoke of a girlfriend called Elizabeth living in SW1.
00:49The incident has shocked Britain and resulted in a Scotland Yard investigation of royal security.
00:54Mrs. Thatcher made an urgent return to the House of Commons today, ahead of a statement from the Home Secretary.
01:00The House will admire the calm way in which Her Majesty responded to what occurred.
01:05The Queen has carried on performing her duties seemingly unperturbed, despite the unprecedented and severe level of threat that the
01:12intruder posed.
01:13The incident left royal commentators asking two questions.
01:17How on earth did he get in? And what did they talk about?
01:21The President's agenda for many years ahead to complete the transformation of Britain.
01:33I'm saying that background, where you come from, doesn't matter.
01:37Because if you can prove yourself to be a value to the economy, if you can contribute,
01:42if you can increase your own prosperity for the good of others,
01:46Well, as Johnny would love to you...
01:47Fuck off. Fuck off. Fuck off.
01:49The successful people, the people who are concerned, they are determined to get ahead.
02:08More travel and news after this.
02:29I don't say I'm sorry if I thought that it could change my mind.
02:35But I know that this time I have said to what's been too unkind.
02:40I try to laugh about it, cover it all up with lies.
02:46I try to laugh about it, hiding my tears in my eyes.
02:50Cause boys, don't cry.
02:57Boys, don't cry.

06:50successfully carried out bombing raids near the capital any casualties none enemy forces attempted
06:56to mount a counter-attack but one argentine canberra and one mirage were successfully

07:10and the recapture of the falkland islands is within reach
07:16the prime minister came to see me today i hope you rolled out the red carpet
07:20why would i do that everyone was against us going to the falklands but she believed we could pull
07:24it off and now victory is within sight in her victory and she's finally doing what we've been
07:29waiting years for someone to do which is lead this country firmly and decisively after years of
07:35incompetence and mismanagement she brought up the subject of palace security again which infuriated me
07:43why do you want our walls to be built even higher or the public to stand 10 feet further back
07:48at
07:50i take great pleasure in meeting members of the public and have learned so much from them
07:55you remember the lesson lord alterman taught us 25 years ago we were given the advice to be more
08:01transparent accessible to lower the drawbridge it doesn't feel right to be pulling it up again
08:15right gloves on we've identified and prepared a few suitable members of the general public
08:21for you to meet but no questions no actual conversation but no ma'am right let's get this over with
08:54thank you
09:02I was brought up by a Victorian grandmother, we were taught to work jolly hard.
09:06You were taught to improve yourself.
09:09You were taught self-reliance.
09:11You were taught to live within your income.
09:13You were taught that cleanliness was next to God's house.
09:16Megan.
09:17Name?
09:18Bond, James Bond.
09:20Any work in the past two weeks?
09:22International espionage agent, you know, intelligence work, counterintelligence, assassination.
09:31I've got a question for you.
09:32Who's your boss?
09:33I want to make a complaint.
09:35If you feel you've been treated unfairly, please speak to your Member of Parliament, who can refer you to the
09:39Parliamentary Ombudsman.
09:41Oh.
09:44You know you're the fucking swat.
09:51While your process with the rest of the economy works its way through, one of the consequences appears to be
09:56very high unemployment, unemployment which is rising.
10:00Now, can I put it this way?
10:02It's like a nurse looking after an ill patient.
10:05Which is the better nurse?
10:06The one who smothers the patient with sympathy.
10:09Never mind, dear.
10:10There, there.
10:11You just lie back.
10:12I'll bring you all your meals.
10:14I'll bring you papers.
10:15There, there.
10:15You just lie back.
10:16I'll look after you.
10:18Or the nurse who says, now, come on.
10:20I'll just shake out of it.
10:22I know you had an operation yesterday.
10:23It's time you put your feet to the ground and took a few steps.
10:26That's right, dear.
10:27That's right.
10:28Now, get back and take a few more tomorrow.
10:30Which do you think is the better nurse?
10:32Well, I know which sounds bother you, Mrs. Hanger.
10:34Ha, ha, ha.
10:39Ha, ha, ha, ha.
10:55How can I help?
10:57Mr. Fagan, I wanted to talk to someone about the system.
11:01Which system?
11:03This system, Britain.
11:05What is it about the system that bothers you?
11:08Um, it's unfair.
11:10And a disgrace.
11:12It says here you're currently unemployed.
11:14What do you do normally?
11:16I'm a painter-decorator.
11:18But there's not a lot of work around recently.
11:20Perhaps because, instead of investing in new homes which I could then paint and decorate,
11:25Devil Woman here is spending it all on a completely unnecessary war.
11:29Well, I have to tell you that I fully support the war.
11:32Do you know what it costs?
11:33I know precisely.
11:35The government has published the figures.
11:37Why would you spend over three billion pounds on a war against total strangers,
11:43rather than looking after your own family?
11:45Because the invasion of the Falkland Islands was an illegal act by a foreign power.
11:49Because General Galtieri is a criminal and a fascist.
11:53And because the Falkland Islanders are British subjects living on British sovereign territory.
11:58But thank you for your observations, which I will note.
12:01No, you won't.
12:03Yes, I will.
12:04No, you won't.
12:11Noted.
12:12Mr. Fagan.
12:13Do you really need to have a picture of her in here?
12:15It's like being in Turkey or Iraq.
12:18She's my boss.
12:19I'm your boss.
12:19I'm a constituent.
12:20Did you vote for me?
12:21You must be joking.
12:23Well, forgive me if I don't think of you as my boss.
12:25Margaret Thatcher is the leader of the Conservative Party to which I belong.
12:29And so I think of her as my boss.
12:31You fancy her?
12:32What?
12:33Her dirty thoughts.
12:34I bet you do.
12:34I'm afraid that's all we have time for.
12:37I haven't finished.
12:39If you still wish to register your protest, I suggest you do so via the ballot box or peacefully in
12:44the street, as is your right in a civilised democracy.
12:47But if I want to talk to someone about her, who do I speak to?
12:50The leader of the opposition.
12:52He has the opportunity to put questions to her in the House of Commons twice a week.
12:56Failing that, the Queen.
12:58She has a private audience with the Prime Minister every Tuesday.
13:01Why don't you drop in at Buckingham Palace to ask her?
13:27aku Chairman-
13:28Her Majesty the Queen here taking the royal salute.
13:31This is the Queen's annual birthday parade.

21:46he also
21:47he also broke
21:47he also broke
21:47a painted vase
21:48a gift from
21:49the president
21:50of guyana
21:50i remember
21:52that vase
21:52it's a
21:53ghastly little
21:54pink thing
21:55sort of
21:56blue worms
21:57all over it
21:58not worms
21:59those were the three
22:00main rivers of guyana
22:01essequibo
22:02burbis
22:03and temerera
22:05oh
22:05and a
22:06little strange
22:07looking duck
22:08the national bird
22:09the kenji pheasant
22:10right
22:11how come no one stopped him
22:12no one can explain it ma'am
22:14it's possible that the timing of his intrusion around 9pm may have aided him in slipping through the net
22:19it also appears that some of the palace's alarm systems were malfunctioning
22:24and that the window on the second floor had been left unsecured
22:28do we know what he wanted
22:29no idea sir
22:31as to motive or intent
22:32we can just count ourselves fortunate that the queen was here at windsor at the time
22:37but
22:38when
22:39downing street hears about this
22:41i do think we will have to brace ourselves for a thorough
22:44security review
22:45christine
22:46are you saying downing street doesn't currently know
22:48not yet ma'am
22:50the matter still rests with the metropolitan police's aid district
22:53but it's yet to be passed up the chain of command
22:55to the home office
22:56do they absolutely need to know
22:59um
23:00not necessarily
23:01if we can overlook the theft of the bottle of wine
23:04and the destruction of the guyanese vase
23:08then can we say the matter is now closed
23:11otherwise the next thing you know
23:12downing street will overreact
23:14and we'll have alarms and surveillance cameras and policemen everywhere
23:17buckingham palace is too like a prison as it is
23:19yes ma'am
23:28come here
23:30go on then

24:08What are you kids like?
24:10Why are you doing this?
24:13You've had enough! You've had enough!
24:22Come on, Mike!
24:25It's alright, it's over.
24:27You've heard of yourself! Leave us alone! We don't need you in our lives!
24:56In light of the incident that occurred at around 3pm last Thursday, a decision has been taken that your children
25:03should remain in the permanent care of their mother.
25:08Furthermore, it has been deemed to be in the children's best interests that you should no longer have any contact
25:14with them.
25:14Do you understand?
25:26Last night, our forces reached the outskirts of Port Stanley and in response, large numbers of Argentine forces threw down
25:35their arms. The Argentines are now reported to be flying white flags of surrender.
25:42With prison's victory in the conflict now seemingly assured, the Queen has returned to Buckingham Palace, ahead of her regular
25:48audience with the Prime Minister.
25:49Amongst Sportback to speak with St. Louisville.
25:53Col- hair is won up to Bowie, as queen loves the Vol Laird王.
25:56And the baby had lost and without Princeì–´ì§€,
25:59For the world, we turned out, we turned it all away!
26:04Napoleon began in battle.
26:07Where shall we stay?
26:14Lucky, lucky, lucky!
26:16Fight, fight, fight!
26:17Lucky, lucky, lucky!
26:20Fight, fight, fight!
26:21Lucky, lucky, lucky!
26:23Fight, fight, fight!
26:25When we started out,
26:27there were the waverers
26:29and the faint-hearted,
26:31the people who believed
26:32we could no longer do
26:34the things we once did
26:36while they were wrong.
26:38Britain has a newfound
26:41confidence
26:42and we will not
26:44look back.
26:47Mrs. Thatcher was in jubilant mood
26:49this afternoon as she told MPs
26:50that the future of the Falkland Islands
26:52would now rest solely in British hands.
26:55Britain's primacy had been re-established,
26:57she said, and then she issued
26:59this warning.
27:00Let every nation know that where there is
27:02British sovereign territory,
27:03it will be well and truly defended.
27:05A statement was met with loud applause.
27:08Mrs. Thatcher has seen a dramatic surge
27:10in her personal popularity,
27:12according to the latest polls.
27:21As an odd voice,
27:43it will be well ended.
28:36Good morning.
28:38You took your time.
28:40Anything to report?
28:43Yeah, it's quite nice.
28:45Graveyard shift, isn't it?
28:51I'll see you tomorrow.
29:25I'll see you tomorrow.
30:04I'll see you tomorrow.
30:17Good morning, Bobo.
30:22What are you doing?
30:23It's still too early.
30:33All right, if you insist.
30:46Who are you?
30:47My name is Michael.
30:49Howard, get out!
30:49I promise you have nothing to fear from me.
30:52There is an armed police from outside this door.
30:54No, there isn't.
30:55Hello?
31:00What do you want if it's money?
31:01I don't want money.
31:02I don't want anything.
31:03I just want to talk to you.
31:04That's all.
31:05To tell you what's going on in the country.
31:09Because either you don't know or you don't care.
31:11Of course I care.
31:13I care very deeply indeed.
31:15What a thing to say.
31:16Don't do that.
31:16Please.
31:18Don't you dare touch me!
31:18Look out!
31:19Stop it!
31:22Just give me a minute, will you?
31:24Sort myself out.
31:25I'll say what I've got to say and then I'll go.
31:31You don't have a cigarette, do you?
31:32No.
31:33Filthy habit.
31:34I know, I know.
31:45I just thought it might be good for you to meet someone normal who can tell it to you as
31:51it is.
31:51I meet normal people all the time.
31:53No, you don't.
31:54Everyone you meet's on best behaviour.
31:57Bowing and scraping.
31:58That's not normal.
31:59And this is normal?
31:59It could be.
32:00If I ever calm down.
32:04You're bleeding.
32:06Am I?
32:08I must have cut myself.
32:12Where do I, um...
32:14Bathroom.
32:15That door.
32:32you got monsieur.
32:36You open the door.
32:37You open the door.
32:39You open your door.
32:40You open.
32:40Ooh, you open the door.ï
32:40meats 우와. You
32:40open the door. You
32:41open your door. You
32:41open the door. You
32:41open my door. Oh.
32:42Oh.
32:48So
33:12You're the richest woman in the world, but look, it's not even electric.
33:16What?
33:17Your toothbrush.
33:18But that's the thing about this place, it's even posher than you'd think, and yet more run down.
33:23Run down?
33:24Oh, yeah. Corridors and staterooms. Shocking.
33:32Chip paint. Peeling wallpaper. Stains. Decorator. Can't help those in.
33:37Is that what you do?
33:39Paint a decorator. You should hire me.
33:46You might need a glazer, too. I broke a window this time.
33:50Last time was you, too?
33:52Yeah.
33:53What is the matter with you? This is private property.
33:55No, it's not estate property.
33:57Either way, you're trespassing.
33:58Which isn't a crime. Not if I don't steal anything.
34:01You stole a bottle of wine last time.
34:05Only to work up the courage to speak to you.
34:07Because I've tried everything else.
34:10Writing letters.
34:11Speaking to my MP.
34:13Fat lot of good than any of that did.
34:15Mirage of democracy.
34:17So, I've come to you.
34:18The head of state.
34:21You're my last resort.
34:22Someone who can actually do something.
34:26What is it you'd like me to do?
34:27Save us all.
34:28From her.
34:30Who?
34:31Thatcher.
34:32She's destroying the country.
34:34We've got more than three million unemployed.
34:36That's more than at any time since the Great Depression.
34:38Doesn't that bother you?
34:39Yes, it bothers me greatly.
34:41But there's nothing I personally can do about it.
34:43When you've been in my position as long as I have, you see how quickly and how often a nation's
34:48fortunes can change.
34:51Joblessness, recession, crises, war.
34:53All of these things have a way of correcting themselves.
34:58Countries bounce back.
34:59People do.
35:00Because they simply have to.
35:01That's what I thought.
35:03That I'd bounce back.
35:05And then I didn't.
35:07First the work dried up.
35:09Then my confidence dried up.
35:13Then the love in my wife's eyes dried up.
35:18And then you begin to wonder.
35:20Where's it gone?
35:22Not just your confidence or your happiness, but your...
35:28They say I have mental health problems now.
35:31I don't.
35:31I'm just poor.
35:42Well, the state can help with all of this.
35:44What state?
35:45The state has gone.
35:47She's dismantled it.
35:48Along with all the other things we thought we could depend on growing up.
35:51A sense of community.
35:53A sense of obligation to one another.
35:56A sense of kindness.
35:58It's all disappearing.
36:00I think you're exaggerating.
36:02People still show kindness to one another.
36:04They still pay their taxes to the state.
36:07And she spends that money on an unnecessary war and declares the feel-good factor is back again.
36:15In the meantime, all the things that really make us feel good.
36:17The right to work.
36:19The right to be ill.
36:21The right to be old.
36:23The right to be frail.
36:25Be human.
36:27Gone.
36:30You may think you're off the hook, but she's got her eye on your job too.
36:33Let me tell you, you'll be out of work soon.
36:35Let me assure you, Mrs Thatcher isn't all too committed monarchist.
36:38Yeah, but she has an appetite for power, which is presidential.
36:41And in this country, a president and a head of state cannot coexist.
36:45Mark my words.
36:46She's put us out of work.
36:47She's quietly putting you out of work.
36:50Who's that?
36:50That'll be my morning tea.
36:51They come at this time.
36:53Come in.
36:59Are you all right, ma'am?
37:00Yes, quite all right.
37:01But you might ask the policeman to come in.
37:19Have you come far?
37:20York way.
37:23Just beyond King's Cross.
37:24Lovely.
37:27Is it lovely?
37:29No, not particularly.
37:37Is there anything else you'd like to say to me?
37:51No.
37:59I do hope they don't make things too difficult for you, in light of all this.
38:08Well, goodbye.
38:11Oh, Tatcher!
38:12It's all right.
38:15I shall bear in mind what you've said.
38:32Now, perhaps that cup of tea.
38:33Yes, ma'am.
38:54The Home Office has confirmed that a man successfully breached Buckingham Palace security and entered the Queen's bedroom, not once,
39:02but twice.
39:03An investigation into this unprecedented failure has already begun, and more details were given this afternoon to an incredulous House
39:10of Commons.
39:10Is the Home Secretary not aware that the British public is really very shocked and staggered that this event could
39:19have occurred, and that the Home Secretary's reference to security not being satisfactory must be the understatement of the year.
39:28I would say that no one is likely to have been more shocked and staggered than I was.
39:32I think that what we've got to await to hear, and to hear, we've got to await Mr. Dillard's report.
39:47On behalf of the government and the Metropolitan Police, I am so sorry.
39:52It is a national embarrassment that the Queen of the United Kingdom should be subjected to troublemakers and malcontents who
40:01feel at liberty to resort to violence.
40:03Oh, but he wasn't violent.
40:05In fact, the only person Mr. Fagan hurt in the course of his break-in was himself.
40:10And while he may be a troubled soul, I don't think he's entirely to blame for his troubles, being a
40:16victim of unemployment, which is now more than twice what it was when you came into office just three years
40:21ago.
40:21If unemployment is temporarily high, ma'am, then it is a necessary side effect of the medicine we are administering
40:29to the British economy.
40:30Shouldn't we be careful that this medicine, like some dreadful chemotherapy, doesn't kill the very patient it is intended to
40:37heal?
40:37Still, if people like Mr. Fagan are struggling, do we not have a collective duty to help them?
40:43What of our moral economy?
40:45If we are to turn this country around, we really must abandon outdated and misguided notions of collective duty.
40:57There are individual men and women and there are families, self-interested people who are trying to better themselves.
41:07That is the engine that fires a nation.
41:10My father didn't have the state to rely on should his business fail.
41:15It was the risk of ruin and his duty to his family that drove him to succeed.
41:22Perhaps not everyone is as remarkable as your father.
41:25Oh, you see, that is where you and I differ.
41:29I say they have it within them to be.
41:34Even someone like Mr. Fagan?
41:37Mr. Fagan is another matter.
41:41Two different doctors have reached the conclusion he is suffering from a schizophrenic illness.
41:46If he is spared criminal prosecution on account of his condition, then a nice, secure mental hospital will ensure he
41:54will not be a danger any longer.
41:57Now, if you will excuse me, I really must go.
42:01Where to?
42:02To the Victory Parade at the City of London.
42:07A Victory Parade?
42:08Yes, ma'am.
42:10We have just won a war.
42:22Good morning from outside the Royal Exchange in the City of London.
42:26And on the saluting base, the Lord Mayor and the Prime Minister waving.
42:31On the Lord Mayor's right, on his left, our right, is Admiral Freedster Terence.
42:36The Prime Minister taking the salute instead of the Sovereign, doesn't that bother you?
42:41Well, I can't say it does.
42:44It's her moment. Let her enjoy it.
42:48It's interesting.
42:49What?
42:51How much it clearly bothers you.
42:53I think that woman's getting ahead of herself.
42:55And now this increased security.
42:58She's trying to protect you.
42:59From what?
43:01From lunatics.
43:02Normal people, my subjects.
43:04Come on!
43:06That man was clearly a lunatic.
43:08And a fool.
43:10Yes, but in the best sense. Like Leah's fool.
43:13Don't get all Shakespearean with me.
43:27I'm sorry that I wasn't there to protect you.
43:31I feel terrible.
43:34But you're there by my side all the time.
43:37And do much more than keep me safe.
43:39But thank you.
43:43I expect Mr. Fagin is rather relieved he didn't come through that window and land on your bed.
43:50Yes.
43:52That would have been a very different conversation.
43:56Yes.
43:57That would have been a very different conversation.
