00:01Which all the polls predict.
00:03One of your first public acts as Prime Minister will be to welcome Prince Charles and the Princess of Wales,
00:08and young Prince William.
00:10Does that prospect fill you with enthusiasm?
00:13I don't regard it as the most important thing I'm going to have to do in the first month in
00:18office.
00:20But yes, they are coming.
00:22I've had the opportunity of meeting Charles on a number of occasions.
00:27I find him a nice young bloke.
00:32Is he the sort of man you'd like to be the King of Australia?
00:35Look, I don't think we'll be talking about kings or monarchy here in Australia much longer.
00:41You know, we're past that now, aren't we?
00:42We're a bit more mature.
00:45Though my position on this is no secret, I respect and admire the Queen enormously.
00:52The desire is simply to have a head of state that embodies and represents Australia's values and traditions.
01:00A head of state that looks like us, sounds like us, thinks like us.
01:05As opposed to?
01:06Well, one of them, a POM.
01:09You know, an unelected non-Australian who lives on the other side of the world and for all their good
01:15intentions is a different breed.
01:17You wouldn't put a pig in charge of a herd of prime beef cattle.
01:21Even if it did look good in a Twinset and Paws.
01:28Your Majesty, the results of the Australian general election.
01:33Oh, good news or bear.
01:35Mr. Hawke by a landslide.
01:36Oh dear, the one who wants us out.
01:38I'm afraid so.
01:38The rough tough former trade union negotiator and the proud holder of the world record for beer drinking.
01:43A yard of ale in a sconce part in 11 seconds.
01:45I don't know what that is. Sounds very impressive.
01:48Well, it's a lot of beer.
01:49Very quickly.
01:50Tea total now, I believe, ma'am.
01:52Great relief to everyone, I should imagine.
01:54Especially Mrs. Hawke.
01:55Is there a Mrs. Hawke?
01:56Yes, there is.
01:57Hazel.
01:58Ah, Hazel.
01:58Stranger, I think, to name a child after a tree.
02:00Especially a Northern Hemisphere tree.
02:03I suppose it does put the pressure on them, rather.
02:06On whom, ma'am?
02:07The Prince and Princess of Wales and their forthcoming tour.
02:11Do you think they'll be all right?
02:12I know one shouldn't listen to gossip, but I had lunch with Princess Margaret the other day.
02:17There's growing concern among those who chatter at Kensington Palace.
02:20Who thought we didn't listen to chatter?
02:21I'll listen to nothing else.
02:23About the Princess of Wales.
02:27She's struggling to cope, apparently.
02:31Wretched.
02:32In the marriage.
02:35And, if rumors are to be believed, she's doing things to herself.
02:41What kind of things?
02:49People do the strangest things when they're unhappy.
02:57I heard she wasn't insisting on taking the baby with them on the tour.
03:00What for?
03:01As a stabilizing influence.
03:02Since when has a baby ever been a stabilizing influence on anything?
03:07We never took the children anywhere.
03:10When we went to Australia in 1954, we left them at home for five months.
03:14And you suppose that might have had consequences?
03:16On what?
03:18The tour was a triumph.
03:24I should probably ask Charles and Diana to come and see me.
03:27This tour is too important.
03:48Does anyone know the story of the Russian bear hunter?
03:51I'm afraid I've already told Mrs. Parker Bowes.
03:54Perhaps she could help you tell it.
03:56All right, sir.
04:00The bear hunter goes deep into the Siberian woods.
04:03Suddenly, he sees...
04:04An enormous bear.
04:06The hunter raises his gun.
04:08And bang! He shoots.
04:10The bear disappears from view.
04:13Got him, he thinks.
04:14But then he feels a tear from the shoulder.
04:16He looks up to see the bear who says...
04:18No one takes a shot at me and gets away with it.
04:21You have a choice.
04:22Either I can tear you to pieces and devour you now, or...
04:26Or, you can drop your trousers, bend over and let me have my way with you.
04:34The hunter pulls down his trousers and the bear does his worst.
04:38Afterwards, the hunter hobbles into town.
04:41He's somewhat bow-legged.
04:42Yes.
04:43And he buys a much bigger gun and goes back into the woods.
04:47And it isn't long before he sees the bear again.
04:49He raises his gun.
04:50Bang!
04:51Fights.
04:52But when the smoke clears...
04:54The bear is nowhere to be seen.
04:57Caught him, the hunter thinks.
04:59But a moment later, he feels another tap on the shoulder.
05:02And the bear says...
05:03You know what to do.
05:06After the bear's done his worst, the hunter heads back in town again
05:10and buys an even bigger gun.
05:11A bazooka.
05:12Yes.
05:12He goes back into the woods.
05:13He sees the bear.
05:14He takes aim and fires.
05:16Boom!
05:17But when the smoke clears,
05:20the hunter looks up to see the bear standing over him.
05:23And the bear says...
05:26You're not really in this for the hunting, are you?
05:37I wanted to wish you both luck.
05:39And ask Sir Sonny to join us today to stress again the importance of the trip.
05:43Thank you, ma'am.
05:45As you know, Australia is one of the most important and influential members of the Commonwealth.
05:50If they were to strike out and assert their independence,
05:53the worry is other countries could fall like dominoes.
05:57You're too young to remember,
05:58but we also toured Australia and New Zealand in 1954.
06:02Yes.
06:02It was long and hot and arduous.
06:05Yes.
06:06But we worked together.
06:08As a team.
06:09And in the end, I think,
06:11it wasn't only a success politically.
06:16It brought us very close.
06:18Yes.
06:19Yes.
06:20And as husband and wife,
06:23we would wish the same for you.
06:25Hmm.
06:33All right. Mummy's here.
06:34Here's TV.
06:35Cut the drawers.
06:38You'll be all right once you get to my place.
06:41Yes.
06:47Then on to Ayers Rock on the 23rd.
06:51Sydney on the 28th.
06:54Before Brisbane, Tasmania and Canberra for an audience with the Prime Minister and his wife.
06:59Then the tour moves to New Zealand.
07:01There's an awful lot of moving around.
07:03A baby needs stability.
07:04And perhaps for that reason the baby was never intended to be part of the trip.
07:09I always made it perfectly clear.
07:11No baby, no me.
07:12And everyone accepted that.
07:13And as I understand,
07:14he's worked very hard to change plans that were set in stone.
07:17And now, instead of being separated for six weeks, it's just...
07:22How long?
07:23The first two weeks.
07:24What?
07:26When the tour is at its most arduous.
07:28Where will William be then?
07:30Woomagama.
07:30Where?
07:31It's a sheep station in New South Wales.
07:33Whose idea was this?
07:35Mine, ma'am.
07:36Do you have children?
07:38No, ma'am.
07:39Why does that not come as a surprise?
07:41Diana!
07:41Come with me.
07:43Ma'am?
07:43Please.
07:51What do you see?
07:53Miss Royal Highness Prince William.
07:55That's a title.
07:56You can't see a title.
07:58Very well.
07:59I see a baby boy.
08:01Asleep or awake?
08:03Awake.
08:04Loud or quiet?
08:05Quiet.
08:06Angry or calm?
08:08Calm.
08:08Ugly or beautiful?
08:10It's just a question, Mr. Adee, nothing to be frightened of.
08:13Is the child ugly?
08:15No.
08:15Then can we agree that this child is the opposite of ugly?
08:18Can we say he's a beautiful child?
08:20I'm busy, ma'am.
08:20What is your point?
08:21My point is that this child is not just beautiful.
08:24This child is perfect in every single way.
08:27So why should you expect me, as his mother, to be without him for one second, let alone two weeks?
08:31Because you married the Prince of Wales, ma'am.
08:34And that is an act of service to the crown and to the country which you signed up to willingly
08:38and with open eyes.
08:39And you are the Princess of Wales.
08:42And the greatest act of service that I can give to the crown as princess is not to be some
08:47neat little wife following the great prince around like some smiling doll,
08:50but to be a living, breathing, present mother.
08:52Bringing up this child in the hopes that the boy that will one day become king still has a vestige
08:57of humanity in him.
08:58Because God knows he's not going to be getting it from any of his courtiers.
09:06Mummy's here.
09:17New Zealand.
09:18Yes.
09:18New Zealand.
09:22Welcome to Alice Springs.
09:24More than a much raining.
09:25Wait.
09:25Hello there.
09:26Come down.
09:26Charles, lovely name.
09:30Hello there.
09:43You're up.
09:45It's dying.
09:46Come on.
09:47Never.
09:47What?
09:49Hi.
09:51Hi.
09:53Hi.
09:54Hi.
09:55Hi.
10:01Hi.
10:03Hi.
10:05I understand before we arrived, you received about a month's worth of rain in a week.
10:10Of course, in Britain, we call that summer.
10:16Seriously, my wife and I, we couldn't be more delighted to be here.
10:21Question for the princess. What part of the tour are you most looking forward to?
10:26Oh, gosh. There's so many.
10:30We're going to a glamorous ball in Sydney.
10:37And, um...
10:40We're going to visit the Royal Botanical Gardens in Sydney.
10:43I think we're going on a pleasure cruise on some river.
10:50And then we're going to visit Ayers' Dock.
10:54Rock.
10:55Ayers' Rock.
11:00What about the cost of the trip at a time when Australia is experiencing extreme weather?
11:05You know, and the money could be spent on the victims.
11:07I'm afraid that's not really my department.
11:10She's good with glamorous balls.
11:13Ayers' Rock or Ayers' Dock.
11:15Apparently, there are protests planned for their visit to Canberra.
11:19A growing backlash about the expense of the trip.
11:25Maybe now's the moment.
11:301788, the first fleet landed at Sydney Cove.
11:33Two long centuries of subjugation by Mother Crown.
11:37And we are still unable to cut the apron strings and stand on our own two feet.
11:42Why?
11:43Because there has never been the tipping point where we finally say, enough.
11:51But, uh, five will get you ten, it'll be this jug-eared bonehead that pushes us all over the edge.
11:59And Australia gets to be free once and for all.
12:05That's all for now.
12:06Thank you all very much.
12:19And a spittable Perth.
12:21Fresh, alert, scrubbed by the sun.
12:23City of Australia's tomorrow.
12:28Into Queensland.
12:30Name for another great queen four generations back.
12:46What's this?
12:47Australia, 1954.
12:49I wanted to remind myself.
12:51Huh.
12:52One of your greatest hits.
12:54Yes, I think so.
12:56How hot it was.
12:58Do you remember?
12:59Yes, one could hardly sleep at night.
13:01No.
13:06The size of those crowds.
13:09Head of the Commonwealth.
13:11Defender of the States.
13:18Sydney, over a million people turned out.
13:20To see their beautiful new queen.
13:22Now she's old and dumpy.
13:23They want to get rid of her.
13:24Not old and dumpy.
13:25Experienced and mature.
13:28Which is why you should have gone yourself.
13:31Instead of sending out the BT.
13:33This was always designed to be Charles' tour.
13:36As Prince of Wales, he has to start sometime.
13:38Then send him to the Bahamas or Seychelles.
13:40Not Australia and New Zealand.
13:43But some countries are too important to send out the understood.
13:46The symbol of the unity of crown and evil.
13:51And the nation waits.
14:00The Royal Highness, over here.
14:02Towards the cameras, please.
14:03Maybe just get in closer together if possible.
14:05Diana, over this way.
14:06Yeah, that's great.
14:08Can we get some big smiles, please?
14:10Can we get some waiting for the Australians?
14:12Diana.
14:13The Royal Highness is this way.
14:14We're going up to the top today.
14:15We're going up to the top today.
14:26Charles?
14:30Charles?
14:31I can't.
14:33The heat.
14:34I feel dizzy.
14:38I think I need to go and sit down.
14:41Can't you put yourself together?
14:43You feeling all right?
14:44You feeling all right, princess?
14:47At this point, the princess seemed to struggle.
14:49The English rose wilting in the heat, I guess.
14:52It's pathetic.
14:54She's pathetic.
14:56It's so critical to get this tour absolutely right, and yet, she's so weak and fragile.
15:04One can't rely on her for the simplest thing.
15:08Letting the side down wherever she goes.
15:11How would I get through the next six weeks without you?
15:14By ringing me every day.
15:16Letting me cheer you up.
15:19You're going to be brilliant.
15:21You're going to be brilliant.
15:21God, I miss you, my darling.
15:23You're adulthood.
15:24If Diana had one ounce of the strength of character that you seemed to display at every turn, then perhaps
15:29we could rescue her.
15:31God, now what?
15:34It never ends.
15:35I'll call you back.
15:37We have to reorganize police, schools, couriers, military, security.
15:40I don't care.
15:41I don't care about any of that.
15:44It's intolerable.
15:44What's intolerable?
15:45Well, I don't expect you to understand.
15:47I just need him to let me go wherever it is they've taken my son.
15:50Lou Margama, it's on the other side of the country.
15:52I explained to her, Royal Highness.
15:54We are just five days into a very important tour, which has been years in the planning.
15:58We can't just change things around willy-nilly.
16:00And I told him that if people expect me to continue with this tour for another minute,
16:04then I need to see my son first.
16:07Our son.
16:48Thank you so much.
16:49Has he been all right?
16:49He's been all right.
16:51He's been all right, darling.
16:52Hello.
16:53How are you?
16:54Yes.
16:57Oh, I missed you so much.
16:59Yes.
17:00Oh.
17:04Want to go to Daddy?
17:06Where's William?
17:06We have to go here.
17:07Drown somewhere.
17:08Who does he look like?
17:10Who's favourite toys?
17:12Is he called Spencer or Windsor?
17:14William, William.
17:16Come on.
17:18Oh, that's lovely.
17:25He's doing quite well.
17:30There you are.
17:31Close your eyes.
17:32Bye.
17:36Oh, my God.
17:39Oh, my God.
17:41Oh, my God.
17:41Oh, my God.
17:43Oh, my God.
17:44Oh, my God.
17:45Oh, my God.
17:46Oh, my God.
17:47Oh, my God.
17:49Oh, my God.
17:51Oh, my God.
17:58Oh, my God.
17:58Oh, my God.
17:59Gone down?
18:01Yes, finally.
18:03Exhausted after his performance.
18:06The star.
18:08Crashing and bashing into everything.
18:10The basher.
18:11The mini-tornado.
18:15Will you eat?
18:16They're made somewhat unimaginatively for a sheep station and shepherd's pie.
18:24I'm not hungry.
18:45What?
18:48I wanted to talk to you.
18:49I've had some thoughts.
18:52A bias?
18:54Us.
18:56I have some things I'd like to discuss, too.
18:58Would you like to go first?
19:00Make a nice change.
19:01What does that mean?
19:02It means you always go first.
19:04You're not poppycock.
19:05You're the Prince of Wales.
19:06You're born to go first.
19:11Are you even remotely aware of how bad things have got for me?
19:16I'm not blind.
19:18I can see how unhappy you are.
19:22How thin you've become.
19:26Trust me, you don't know the half of it.
19:28I know more than you think.
19:32People talk.
19:34The staff.
19:35And I was very saddened.
19:40Horrified by what I learned.
19:44So what do you want from me?
19:48To be heard.
19:51I'm listening.
19:53No, more than that.
19:55To be understood.
19:57Appreciated.
19:59I don't need endless flattery.
20:00No one wants that.
20:02But I am trying my hardest to please you.
20:05To live up to your standards.
20:06And I don't think you have the faintest idea of what it's like to feel this way.
20:10To be constantly overlooked.
20:12Ignored.
20:12I have the faintest idea.
20:13I know what being overlooked feels like better than anyone.
20:15I spent my whole life being unthanked, unappreciated, uncared for.
20:21And if I've been cold or distant with you, perhaps it's because I don't feel truly understood by you.
20:27I sometimes think you see me as an old man.
20:32Or worse, a gargoyle above the church door.
20:35Gray.
20:37Made of stone.
20:39Unemotional.
20:39But I'm not.
20:42You think I don't crave the occasional well done, or aren't you clever, or even just a thank you.
20:50I need encouragement and the occasional pat on the back, too.
20:55Well, does that explain why you keep going to her?
20:59I'm not going to say her name.
21:01I'm worried if I do, I might spit.
21:03Camilla, what's she got to do with it?
21:05Well, that's what I keep asking myself.
21:07What's she got to do with anything?
21:08But obviously, she's got a lot to do with everything, because you can't leave her alone.
21:12She and her husband are close friends, not just of mine, but the whole family's.
21:15You remember I found your bracelet?
21:17The one with your nicknames engraved on it, Fred and Gladys.
21:20That's just harmless fun.
21:21It was three days before our wedding you gave that to her.
21:24And on our actual honeymoon, you wore the cufflinks that she gave you.
21:27With the interlocking initials of two Cs, interwoven and obscenely entwined like lovers.
21:33And on the same honeymoon, a photograph of her falls out of your diary.
21:36And then later in the year, I find your love letters, page after page of the passion I'm not getting
21:41from you.
21:41Because you show no interest in me.
21:44You refuse to come to Highgrove, where I'm happiest.
21:46Yes, because she is there.
21:48Oh, and not just her, but the gardens and the polo and the hunts.
21:51And the boring old philosophers and father substitutes who patronize me and ignore me, but love her, presumably.
21:58Which is why the two of you are perfect for each other.
22:00So where do I fit in?
22:02Are you fit in because you're my wife and because I love you?
22:20I...
22:21I don't...
22:22I do.
22:23I do.
22:27Gosh.
22:34So...
22:36How are we going to solve it?
22:40Well, I...
22:42Well, I suppose...
22:43I suppose we've got to learn to give it to each other on a more regular basis.
22:50Encouragement, I mean.
22:51And the other thing.
22:53Oh, yes, that too.
22:55I still think you're gorgeous.
22:58Cleverest, handsomest man in every room.
23:00Do you really?
23:02Pathetic.
23:03But I do need that sometimes.
23:06And you look gorgeous too.
23:08Your beauty, your radiance is a great, shining, spectacular miracle.
23:14When I see the light in people's faces, when they look at you, it makes me realize that I'm the
23:18luckiest man in the world and we're the luckiest family in the world.
23:22It makes me want to ring the Queen back in London and say, can you hear that, mummy?
23:26Listen to that.
23:27It's a hundred decibels louder than anything you ever got.
23:29Chew on that.
23:30Chew on that.
23:34You know, I think this might be the most important conversation we've ever had.
23:38Yes.
23:38And the solution is so simple.
23:41Anytime either of us feels like we're not getting what we need, we simply need to give that very thing
23:46to the other.
23:47Because if you learn anything from today, it's...
23:49We both need the same as each other.
23:52To be encouraged.
23:54To be supported.
23:58To be appreciated.
24:01To be loved.
24:04Yes.
24:06A toast.
24:08To a first start.
24:09A new beginning.
24:11Happy Easter, my darling.
24:20Two weeks.
24:22Come on.
24:25One day.
24:48The first leg of the world tour has come to an end.
24:51The prince and princess have seen a fair slice of the northern territory.
24:54The royal couple emerged 2,000. Well wishes were there to greet them, but the more formal welcome came from
24:59the governor-general and the finalists don't know about it.
25:01It's a sunny fire. We're absolutely delighted to be here. Thank you so much.
25:04Hours before they were due to a ride in the city, tens of thousands of people began lining the streets
25:09from the airport.
25:10By now, the place was really beginning to pick up, and so too was the public's reaction.
25:15Five and a half thousand people peep patiently to take up the best possible position around the ropes.
25:20There was a frenzy of waving hands and flags as the prince and princess appeared, holding hands on the back
25:28of their roles.
25:29The crowds were desperate to get a glimpse of the perfect couple, the prince and princesses.
25:37Even overseas reporters, who've seen it all before, seemed a little taken aback by the sheer scale and excitement.
25:45Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the heir to the throne and Australia's future king, his royal highness, the prince of
25:53Wales.
26:02Thank you, Sir James.
26:04In case you've been living in a cave, perhaps I should introduce you to a most remarkable woman and mother,
26:10who I am proud to call my wife.
26:33You're just too good to be true.
26:37Can't take my eyes off of you.
27:02That's what you're giving the stories out.
27:03Yeah, I know.
27:19I love you, baby.
27:21I love you, baby.
27:22And if it's bright or bright, I miss you, baby.
27:25It's a warm and lonely night.
27:27I love you, baby.
27:29I love you, baby.
27:30Rest in me when I stay.
27:33Oh, pretty baby.
27:36Please don't bring me down, I pray.
27:38Oh, pretty baby.
27:39You know that I found you safe.
27:41And let me love you, baby.
27:45Let me love you, baby.
27:52I love you, baby.
28:22Good morning, Your Royal Highness.
28:30A phone call from Mrs. Parker Bowles.
28:34Would you like to return it?
28:39No.
28:41No, I wouldn't.
28:45Thank you, Edward. That'll be all.
28:48You had fun together at the ball.
28:49We did. I could have danced all night.
28:52So, has that been the highlight?
28:54Well, that's hard to say.
28:56We greatly enjoyed seeing Sydney Harbour
28:58and Charles tried body surfing on Bondi Beach.
29:02But I suppose the greatest highlight has been,
29:05well, meeting all of you, the people of Australia.
29:10You've made us feel so welcome, so at home.
29:12Well, perhaps because you've been so refreshing.
29:16You're not what we expect from royalty.
29:18Well, that's because I don't think of myself as royalty.
29:21You know, first and foremost, I'm a wife and a mother.
29:25That's what's most important to me.
29:27She really is a wonderful mother.
29:29And how's William getting along?
29:31He's having a magical time here.
29:33So he likes Australia?
29:34Well, let's put it like this.
29:35His favourite cuddly toy used to be a whale.
29:38Since coming here, it's been firmly supplanted by a koala.
29:41Ten thousand people were waiting to catch sight
29:43of the prince and princess.
29:45Along the way, the princess was overwhelmed
29:47with posies and small gifts from equally small children.
29:50No, he's very busy at the moment and cannot comment.
29:53The support will not be answering any questions about this appraiser.
30:05I don't know.
30:09It's awesome.
30:11This is just it.
30:22This is just it.
30:26Why don't I take one of you?
30:29Just a smile.
30:30Please.
30:33Okay.
30:36Hello.
30:41Hello.
30:42This is George's.
30:46What do you think of Brisbane?
30:49Let's play.
30:57That's receiving it.
30:58Oh, please.
31:00I love your chest.
31:02Oh, I love your chest.
31:05You're so beautiful.
31:07You're so happy.
31:10I love you.
31:12AHHHH.
31:13AHHHH.
31:14Aici's.
31:16Aici's.
31:22Aici's.
31:29Aici's.
32:03There's a problem no one foresaw. Huge crowds wherever they go. Some even bigger, I'm told, than those you got
32:09back in the 18th century, or whenever you went.
32:131954. And I very much liked it.
32:15Along with raves in all the newspapers for Dinah's beauty. And charm. And most of all, her motherhood.
32:23I heard she'd been hysterical. Clinging to the poor baby like a life raft.
32:27Evidently that clinging is what the Australians have responded to.
32:31What a natural mother she is. How physical. And caring.
32:37Anyway, why is all this a problem?
32:38You and I both know how much Charles craves reassurance. And attention. And praise.
32:44This tour of Australia and New Zealand was supposed to be his grand debut. His moment in the sun. His
32:49future king.
32:53Just saying.
32:58Hello. Thank you. Hello. Hello. Thank you for coming. Thank you.
33:03Where's Princess Di?
33:05She's busy working on the crew. She's had to put up with me.
33:13Are you going in for a swim, Matt?
33:15Don't think so.
33:17Which one do you fancy giving you the kiss of life?
33:19Let's hope it doesn't come to that.
33:21How about it, boys? Any volunteers?
33:24I think you've got some admirers.
33:25Can we get you guys all in closer?
33:39No worries.
33:40Prince Charles here. Prince of Wales.
33:43He's playing on a borrowed pony called Apollo.
33:46A strong hit from number two there.
33:49And here comes Prince Charles swooping from his position at the back.
33:52Everybody ready?
33:54Yes, set, go.
34:12Are you a real princess?
34:14What do you put up there and find out?
34:17That works.
34:18As they move from Queensland to Tosmania, the Royal Tour is going from strength to strength.
34:23And whilst it's been a great personal victory for Prince Charles, no one can deny it's the
34:30Princess of Wales who's truly captured the heart of a nation.
34:34Well, she's not stuck among the rest of the world, is she?
34:36You get a sense of her being a real person?
34:39Yes.
34:40You've got to love her, haven't you?
34:41Do you love Charles as much as you love Diana?
34:43Yes, she loves him. He must have something, wasn't he?
34:45She is so good.
34:46And what do you think of the Prince of Wales?
34:47She is amazing.
34:49She's just like her.
34:50Is she?
34:50Do you think she can have a cup of tea with her or something?
34:53I mean, she's really down to that fine.
35:01No one's down, I'm going to get out.
35:02Come on, darling.
35:03What about you?
35:04You got me back.
35:04I'm good now.
35:05I'm everything you have.
35:06No, I'm nothing to meet you.
35:08Good evening, Mr. Premier.
35:09I'm not gonna see you.
35:09Come around, please.
35:10This is great.
35:11Come around, please.
35:13This way, please.
35:25It's a great pleasure to be able to come to Tasmania
35:28to receive such an enthusiastic and heartwarming welcome.
35:32The last time I was here was two years ago, 1981,
35:36shortly before we were married.
35:38At that time, everybody was saying,
35:40good luck and hope everything goes well,
35:43how lucky you are to be engaged to such a lovely lady.
35:47And my goodness, I am lucky enough to be married to her.
35:59That's the thing about ladies,
36:00you never quite know what they get up to when your back's turned.
36:06It's the final straw, honestly.
36:08Pulling faces, horsing around while I'm trying to do my job.
36:11I was blushing, blushing at your compliments.
36:13People were laughing at me, laughing in my face
36:15at the end of a week in which half of Australia has also been booing me.
36:18I don't deserve this.
36:20This was supposed to be my tour.
36:22My tour as Prince of Wales to shore up one of the key countries in the Commonwealth
36:25at a very delicate moment politically.
36:27And thanks to you...
36:28Thanks to me, people have shown up.
36:29Thanks to me, people are interested.
36:31No, thanks to you, people are laughing in my face.
36:34Booing the heir to the throne.
36:35Booing the crown.
36:37Oh, come on.
36:39Oh, don't do this.
36:42Please.
36:43Open the door.
36:46Charles?
36:49He's left ten days to New Zealand to get through.
37:07Welcome, Your Royal Highness.
37:09Hi, Minister.
37:09Given our different perspectives, our different views
37:13on the appropriate governance of this nation,
37:17I never thought I'd find myself commiserating with you,
37:19but let's face it,
37:22you've made us both look like chumps.
37:25I don't understand.
37:29Heron Nullius.
37:32That's what your ancestor, King George III,
37:36called us when the Brits first arrived.
37:40Nobody's country.
37:43Well, by God, we were somebody's country then.
37:47And we're our own country now.
37:51When you arrived, I thought you visit might inspire Australia
37:56to finally throw off the shackles and stand on our own two feet.
38:01And no offence, but if it had just been you, you know,
38:06I might have got my wishes.
38:10But then, you know, she comes along.
38:15The perfect wife, the perfect princess,
38:19and the whole place goes nuts.
38:22The power of fairy tales.
38:27That superstar may have just set back the cause of republicanism
38:33in Australia for the foreseeable future.
38:46Let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go
38:49and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's
38:54go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and
38:55let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go
38:57and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's
39:03go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and
39:03let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go
39:04and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's go and let's
39:05go and let's go and let
39:17Oh
39:37Oh
40:13I grew Kensington Palace
40:36It's the Princess of Wales
40:38I was hoping the Queen might see me
40:51Oh
40:58Oh
41:00Oh
41:00Oh
41:00Oh
41:01Oh
41:02Oh
41:03Oh
41:03Oh
41:26welcome back thank you mama you said I should always call you that of course
41:36please thank you Nigel
41:43I've come because I don't know who to turn to anymore
41:48I'm struggling struggling I do to set a triumph I don't consider it a trial if at the end of
41:56it
41:56my husband and I are wretchedly unhappy look at these pictures of you both everywhere are you
42:02really telling me that's unhappiness well not in that moment no in that moment it's perfect
42:09happiness but then behind closed doors it's a different story he resents me resents the attention
42:14I get and why is that I don't know I was hoping you could tell me he's your son because
42:24I've been
42:25a terrible mother is that what you've come here to tell me no or the Duke of Edinburgh a terrible
42:29father of course not I struggle to understand Charles sometimes too I think that's no secret
42:33but us sitting here sticking knives into him isn't helpful either and is it also possible that there
42:39is a part of you that is enjoying your own success rather too much what is too much a smile
42:45a moment's
42:46happiness overstepping the mark is too much I think we do all know when we've played to the gallery
42:51excessively we know all right yes it does feel good sometimes to be cheered it can be a comfort
43:04because since I've joined this family it's not been easy I've been given no help no support just
43:10thrown in the deep end and I think that people out there can sense that I've suffered that I'm
43:14undervalued ignored I think it's a mistake to assume that people are feeling any sympathy for
43:17us at all and I think it's a mistake to assume they don't you've seen how the crowds responded to
43:24me in Australia here too and instead of resenting me for it I assure you no one resents you
43:29Charles resents me and resents me and is it possible that you resent me too all I want is
43:36to play for the team you're the princess of Wales so of course you're part of the team and show
43:40me
43:42this whole thing it starts and stops with you you're the captain of the team if you show me love
43:48approval and acceptance everyone else will follow I think we've gone as far as we can now we can
43:55continue another time don't dismiss me please don't push me away what mama
44:16that's all I want
44:21it's all any of us want from you is it too much to ask
44:40a hug yes what kind of hug a tight rather desperate hug I see
44:51yes but is it possible that she has a point we are rather a tough bunch in this family
44:57we don't give out much praise or love or thanks perhaps someone like Diana is best placed to hug
45:03everyone else too to connect with the modern world and isn't that how the crown survives
45:10and stays relevant by changing with the times Diana is an immature little girl who in time will give up
45:20her
45:20struggles give up her fight and bend as Philip did as they all do and when she bends she will
45:30fit and if she
45:31doesn't bend what then she will break
45:36is
45:37and
45:39Let's go.
