00:28You
00:34Bob Hawke
00:35if you win the election next week
00:37which all the polls predict
00:39one of your first public acts
00:42as Prime Minister will be to welcome
00:44Prince Charles and the Princess of Wales
00:45and young Prince William
00:48does that prospect fill you with
00:50enthusiasm
00:51I don't regard it as the
00:54most important thing I'm going to have to do
00:56in the first month in office
00:58but
00:59yes they are coming
01:01I've had the opportunity of meeting Charles
01:03on a number of occasions
01:06I find him
01:08a nice young bloke
01:11Is he the sort of man you'd like to be the king of Australia?
01:14Look I don't think we'll be
01:16talking about kings
01:18or monarchy here in Australia
01:20much longer, you know we're past that now
01:22aren't we? We're a bit more mature
01:25You know
01:26my position on this
01:27it's no secret
01:28I respect and admire
01:31the Queen enormously
01:33the desire
01:34is simply to have a head of state
01:37that embodies and represents
01:39Australia's values and traditions
01:41a head of state that
01:42that looks like us
01:44sounds like us
01:45thinks like us
01:47as opposed to?
01:48well
01:48one of them
01:49a pom
01:51you know
01:51an unelected
01:52non-Australian
01:53who
01:55lives on the other side of the world
01:56and
01:57for all their good intentions
01:58is a different breed
02:00you wouldn't put a pig in charge of a herd of prime beef cattle
02:04even if it did look good in a Twinset and Paws
02:13the results of the Australian
02:16general election
02:17oh good news or bad
02:19Mr. Hawke
02:20by a landslide
02:21oh dear
02:21the one who wants us out
02:22I'm afraid so
02:23the rough tough former trade union negotiator
02:25and the proud holder of the world record for beer drinking
02:28a yard of ale in a sconce pot in 11 seconds
02:31I don't know what that is
02:32sounds very impressive
02:33well it's a lot of beer
02:34now
02:34very quickly
02:36teetotal now I believe ma'am
02:37a great relief to everyone I should imagine
02:39especially Mrs. Hawke
02:41is there a Mrs. Hawke?
02:42yes there is
02:43Hazel
02:43ah Hazel
02:44a stranger I think
02:45to name a child after a tree
02:46especially a northern hemisphere tree
02:49I suppose it does put the pressure on them rather
02:52on who ma'am?
02:54the Prince and Princess of Wales
02:55and their forthcoming tour
02:58do you think they'll be alright?
03:00I know one shouldn't listen to gossip
03:01but I had lunch with Princess Margaret the other day
03:04there's growing concern among those who chatter at Kensington Palace
03:08you thought we didn't listen to chatter?
03:09I listened to nothing else
03:12about the Princess of Wales
03:16she's struggling to cope apparently
03:20wretched in the marriage
03:24and if rumours are to be believed
03:26she's doing things to herself
03:30what kind of things?
03:39people do the strangest things when they're unhappy
03:48I heard she was insisting on taking the baby with them on the tour
03:51what for?
03:52as a stabilising influence
03:53since when has a baby ever been a stabilising influence on anything?
03:58we never took the children anywhere
04:01when we went to Australia in 1954
04:03we left them at home for five months
04:06and do you suppose that might have had consequences?
04:09on what?
04:10the tour was a triumph
04:17I should probably ask Charles and Diana to come and see me
04:21this tour is too important
04:22and tell us this one
04:52as we talk about
06:09An enormous bear.
06:10The hunter raises his gun and bang!
06:14He shoots.
06:15The bear disappears from view.
06:18Got him, he thinks.
06:19But then he feels a tap on the shoulder.
06:21He looks up to see the bear who says,
06:23no one takes a shot at me and gets away with it.
06:27You're of choice.
06:28Either I can tear you to pieces and devour you now, or...
06:32Or, you can drop your trousers, bend over and let me have my way with you.
06:40The hunter pulls down his trousers and the bear does his worst.
06:45Afterwards, the hunter hobbles into town.
06:48Somewhat bow-legged.
06:50Yes.
06:51And he buys a much bigger gun and goes back into the woods.
06:54And it isn't long before he sees the bear again.
06:57He raises his gun, bang, farts.
07:00But when the smoke clears...
07:02The bear is nowhere to be seen.
07:05Got him, the hunter thinks.
07:07But a moment later, he feels another tap on the shoulder.
07:11And the bear says...
07:12You know what to do.
07:15Now, after the bear's done his worst,
07:18the hunter heads back in town again and buys an even bigger gun.
07:21A bazooka?
07:21Yes.
07:22He goes back into the woods.
07:23He sees the bear.
07:24He takes aim and fires.
07:26Boom!
07:27But when the smoke clears,
07:30the hunter looks up to see the bear standing over him.
07:34And the bear says...
07:37You're not really in this for the hunting, are you?
07:49I wanted to wish you both luck
07:51and asked Sir Sonny to join us today
07:53to stress again the importance of the trip.
07:55Thank you, ma'am.
07:57As you know, Australia is one of the most important
08:00and influential members of the Commonwealth.
08:03If they were to strike out and assert their independence,
08:07the worry is other countries could fall like dominoes.
08:10You're too young to remember.
08:12But we also toured Australia and New Zealand in 1954.
08:15Yes.
08:16It was long and hot and arduous.
08:19Yes.
08:20But we worked together.
08:22As a team.
08:24And in the end, I think
08:26it wasn't only a success politically.
08:30It brought us very close.
08:33Yes.
08:35And as husband and wife,
08:38we would wish the same for you.
08:49It's all right.
08:50Mummy's here.
08:50It's here, then.
08:51We've got the rocks.
08:54We'll be all right once we get to the place.
09:05Then on to Ayers Rock on the 23rd,
09:09Sydney on the 28th,
09:12before Brisbane, Tasmania and Canberra
09:15for an audience with the Prime Minister and his wife.
09:18Then the tour moves to New Zealand.
09:19There's an awful lot of moving around.
09:21A baby needs stability.
09:23And perhaps for that reason,
09:26the baby was never intended to be part of the trip.
09:28I always made it perfectly clear.
09:30No baby, no me.
09:31And everyone accepted that.
09:33And as I understand,
09:33it's worked very hard to change plans that were set in stone.
09:37And now, instead of being separated for six weeks,
09:40it's just, uh...
09:42How long?
09:43The first two weeks.
09:44What?
09:46When the tour is at its most arduous.
09:48Where will William be then?
09:50Woomagama.
09:51Where?
09:52It's a sheep station.
09:53In New South Wales.
09:54Whose idea was this?
09:56Mine, ma'am.
09:57Do you have children?
09:59No, ma'am.
10:00Why does that not come as a surprise?
10:02Diana!
10:03Come with me.
10:04Ma'am?
10:05Please.
10:13What do you see?
10:16That's a title.
10:18You can't see a title.
10:21Very well.
10:22I see a baby boy.
10:24I see a baby boy.
10:24Asleep or awake?
10:26Awake.
10:27Loud or quiet?
10:29Quiet.
10:30Angry or calm?
10:31Calm.
10:32Ugly or beautiful?
10:34It's just a question, Mr. Adee.
10:36Nothing to be frightened of.
10:37Is the child ugly?
10:39No.
10:39Then can we agree that this child is the opposite of ugly?
10:43Can we say he's a beautiful child?
10:44I'm busy, ma'am.
10:45What is your point?
10:46My point is that this child is not just beautiful.
10:49This child is perfect in every single way.
10:52So why should you expect me, as his mother, to be without him for one second, let alone two weeks?
10:57Because you married the Prince of Wales, ma'am.
10:59And that is an act of service to the Crown and to the country, which you signed up to willingly
11:04and with open eyes.
11:05And you are the Princess of Wales.
11:08And the greatest act of service that I can give to the Crown as princess is not to be some
11:14meat little wife following the great prince around like some smiling doll,
11:17but to be a living, breathing, present mother, bringing up this child in the hopes that the boy that will
11:22one day become king
11:23still has a vestige of humanity in him.
11:26Because God knows he's not going to be getting it from any of his courtiers.
11:35Mummy's here.
11:45Ah, New Zealand, yes, New Zealand.
11:52Welcome to Alice Springs.
11:54More than a much rain in the wind.
11:55Hello there.
11:56Sounds out.
11:56Charles, lovely name.
11:58Good evening.
12:00Hello there.
12:01Lovely to meet you, Charles.
12:11Come on, Charles.
12:14Come on.
12:16Come on.
12:18Come on.
12:19Come on.
12:21Come on.
12:23Come on.
12:23Come on.
12:23Come on.
12:35Come on.
12:38I understand before we arrived, you received about a month's worth of rain in a week.
12:44Of course, in Britain, you'd call that summer.
12:50Seriously, my wife and I, we couldn't be more delighted to be here.
12:56Question for the princess.
12:57What part of the tour are you most looking forward to?
13:01Oh, gosh, um, there's so many.
13:05Um, we're going to a glamorous ball in Sydney.
13:08Oh, me?
13:13And, um...
13:14Oh, we're going to visit the Royal Botanical Gardens in Sydney.
13:19Oh, God.
13:20I think we're going on a pleasure cruise on some river.
13:25Um, and then we're going to, uh, we're going to visit Ayers Dock.
13:32Dock.
13:32Ayers Dock.
13:38What about the cost of the trip?
13:40At a time when Australia's experiencing extreme weather, you know, and the money could be spent on the victims.
13:45I'm afraid that's not really my department.
13:48She's good with glamorous balls.
13:54Apparently, there are protests planned for their visit to Canberra.
13:58A growing backlash about the expense of the trip.
14:04Maybe now's the moment.
14:101788, the first fleet landed at Sydney Cove.
14:12We have two long centuries of subjugation by Mother Crown.
14:17And we are still unable to cut the apron strings and stand on our own two feet.
14:23Why?
14:24Because there has never been the tipping point where we finally say enough.
14:33But, uh, five will get to ten, it'll be this jug-eared bonehead that pushes us all over the edge.
14:42And Australia gets to be free.
14:45Once and for all.
14:48That's all for now.
14:49Thank you all very much.
15:03An hospitable Perth.
15:05Fresh, alert, scrubbed by the sun.
15:07City of Australia's tomorrow.
15:12Into Queensland.
15:14Name for another great queen four generations back.
15:32What's this?
15:34Australia, 1954.
15:36I wanted to remind myself.
15:38Ha!
15:39One of your greatest hits.
15:41Yes, I think so.
15:43How hot it was.
15:45Do you remember?
15:45Yes, one could hardly sleep at night.
15:48No.
15:54The size of those crowds.
15:57Head of the Commonwealth.
15:59Defender of the Navy.
16:06Sydney, over a million people turned out.
16:08To see their beautiful new queen.
16:11Now she's old and dumpy.
16:12They want to get rid of her.
16:13Not old and dumpy.
16:14Experienced and mature.
16:16Welcome back, Carl.
16:18Which is why you should have gone yourself.
16:20Instead of sending out the BT.
16:23This was always designed to be Charles' tour.
16:26As Prince of Wales, he has to start sometime.
16:28Then send him to the Bahamas or Seychelles.
16:30Not Australia and New Zealand.
16:33Some countries are too important to send out the understudy.
16:37The symbol of the unity of crown and people.
16:42And the nation waits.
16:52The Royal Highness over here.
16:54Port the cameras, please.
16:55Maybe just get in closer together, if possible.
16:57The Royal Highness over this way.
16:58Great, thank you.
17:01Can we get some big smiles, please?
17:02Can we get some waves for the Australians?
17:05The Royal Highness, this way.
17:07We're going up to the top today.
17:20Charles?
17:24Charles?
17:25I can't.
17:27The heat.
17:28I feel dizzy.
17:33I think I need to go and sit down.
17:36Can't you pull yourself together?
17:38Water.
17:38Water.
17:39Feeling all right, Diana?
17:40Princess?
17:41You all right, princess?
17:43At this point, the princess seemed to struggle.
17:45The English rose, wilting in the heat, perhaps.
17:48It's pathetic.
17:50She's pathetic.
17:53It's so critical that we get this tour absolutely right.
17:57And yet, she's so weak and fragile.
18:01One can't rely on her for the simplest thing.
18:05Letting the side down wherever she goes.
18:08How would I get through the next six weeks without you?
18:11By ringing me every day.
18:14Letting me cheer you up.
18:17You're going to be brilliant.
18:19Oh, God, I miss you, my darling.
18:21Your adulthood.
18:23If Diana had one ounce of the strength of character that you seem to display at every turn, then perhaps
18:28we could rescue her.
18:30Oh, God, now what?
18:33It never ends.
18:35I'll call you back.
18:37We have to reorganize police, schools, couriers, military, security...
18:40But I don't care.
18:41I don't care about any of that.
18:44It's intolerable.
18:45What's intolerable?
18:46Well, I don't expect you to understand.
18:48I just need him to let me go wherever it is they've taken my son.
18:51Oh, Magma, it's on the other side of the country.
18:53I explained to her Royal Highness.
18:55We are just five days into a very important tour, which has been years in the planning.
18:59We can't just change things around willy-nilly.
19:01And I told him...
19:02Yes, and me.
19:03...that if people expect me to continue with this tour for another minute,
19:05then I need to see my son first.
19:09Our son.
19:10Oh, my God.
19:52Thank you so much.
19:54Has he been all right?
19:55He's been.
19:56Hi, darling.
19:58Hello.
19:58How are you?
20:00Yes.
20:01Oh, I missed you so much.
20:04Oh, my God.
20:05Oh, my God.
20:07Oh, my God.
20:11Want to go to Daddy?
20:13Hey, William, we're out of here.
20:14Crown somewhere.
20:15I want to go to Daddy.
20:16Who does he look like?
20:17Who's favourite toys?
20:19Is he more Spencer or Windsor?
20:22William!
20:22William!
20:23Come on, man.
20:24Come on, you're your kids.
20:25Oh, that's lovely.
20:27In it air.
20:28Well-performer.
20:29I'm good.
20:31I'm good.
20:34It's doing quite well.
20:39There you are.
20:40Close your eyes.
20:41Come on.
21:10Gone down.
21:12Yes, finally.
21:15Exhausted after his performance.
21:18The star.
21:20Crashing and bashing into everything.
21:22The basher.
21:23The mini-tornado.
21:27Will you eat?
21:29They made somewhat unimaginatively for a sheep station.
21:33Shepherd's pie.
21:38I'm not hungry.
21:59I want to talk to you.
22:04I've had some thoughts.
22:07A bias?
22:09Us.
22:11I have some things I'd like to discuss, too.
22:14Would you like to go first?
22:16You'd make a nice change.
22:17What does that mean?
22:18It means you always go first.
22:20You're not poppycock.
22:21You're the Prince of Wales.
22:22You're born to go first.
22:28Are you even remotely aware of how bad things have got for me?
22:33I'm not blind.
22:36I can see how unhappy you are.
22:39How a thing you've become.
22:44Trust me, you don't know the half of it.
22:46I know more than you think.
22:50People talk.
22:53The staff.
22:54And I was very saddened.
23:00Horrified by what I learned.
23:03So what do you want from me?
23:08To be heard.
23:11And I'm listening.
23:13No more than that.
23:15To be understood.
23:18Appreciated.
23:19I don't need endless flattery.
23:21No one wants that.
23:23But I am trying my hardest to please you.
23:26To live up to your standards.
23:27And I don't think you have the faintest idea of what it's like to feel this way.
23:31To be constantly overlooked.
23:33Ignored.
23:34I don't have the faintest idea.
23:35I know what being overlooked feels like better than anyone.
23:37I've spent my whole life being unthanked.
23:42Unappreciated.
23:43Uncared for.
23:43And if I've been cold or distant with you,
23:47perhaps it's because I don't feel truly understood by you.
23:50I sometimes think you see me as an old man.
23:55Or worse, a gargoyle above the church door.
23:59Grey.
24:00Made of stone.
24:03Unemotional.
24:03But I'm not.
24:05You think I don't crave the occasional well done or...
24:10Aren't you clever?
24:12Or even just a thank you.
24:15But I need encouragement and the occasional pat on the back, too.
24:20Well, does that explain why you keep going to her?
24:24I'm not going to say her name.
24:26I'm worried if I do, I might spit.
24:28Camilla, what's she got to do with it?
24:31Well, that's what I keep asking myself.
24:33What's she got to do with anything?
24:35But obviously, she's got a lot to do with everything
24:37because you can't leave her alone.
24:39She and her husband are close friends,
24:40not just of mine, but the whole family's.
24:42You remember I found your bracelet?
24:44The one with your nicknames engraved on it,
24:46Fred and Gladys?
24:47That's just harmless fun.
24:48The three days before our wedding, you gave that to her.
24:51And on our actual honeymoon,
24:53you wore the cufflinks that she gave you.
24:55With the interlocking initials, the two Cs,
24:58interwoven and obscenely entwined like lovers.
25:01And on the same honeymoon,
25:02a photograph of her falls out of your diary.
25:05And then later in the year,
25:06I find your love letters,
25:07page after page of the passion
25:09I'm not getting from you.
25:10Because you show no interest in me.
25:13You refuse to come to Highgrove where I'm happiest.
25:15Yes, because she is there.
25:17Oh, and not just her,
25:18but the gardens and the polo and the hunts
25:21and the boring old philosophers and father substitutes
25:23who patronize me and ignore me
25:25but love her, presumably.
25:28Which is why the two of you are perfect for each other.
25:31So where do I fit in?
25:33You fit in because you're my wife.
25:36And...
25:38Because...
25:40I love you.
25:51I...
25:52I...
25:54I do.
25:59Gosh.
26:07So...
26:09How are we going to solve it?
26:14Well...
26:15Well, I suppose...
26:17I suppose you've got to learn
26:19to give it to each other on a more regular basis.
26:24The encouragement, I mean.
26:26And the other thing.
26:27Oh, yes, that too.
26:30I still think you're gorgeous.
26:32The cleverest, handsomest man in every room.
26:35I do, really.
26:38Pathetic.
26:39But I do need that sometimes.
26:42And...
26:42You look gorgeous, too.
26:44Your...
26:45Beauty, your radiance
26:46is a great, shining, spectacular miracle.
26:51When I see the light in people's faces
26:53when they look at you,
26:53it makes me realize
26:54that I'm the luckiest man in the world
26:56and we're the luckiest family in the world.
26:59It makes me want to ring the Queen back in London
27:01and say,
27:02Can you hear that, Mummy?
27:03Listen to that.
27:04It's 100 decibels louder than anything you ever got.
27:06Chew on that.
27:07Choke on that.
27:12You know, I think this might be
27:13the most important conversation we've ever had.
27:16Yes.
27:17And the solution is so simple.
27:19Any time either of us feels like
27:21we're not getting what we need,
27:22we simply need to give that very thing to the other.
27:26Because if you learn anything from today, it's...
27:28We both need the same as each other.
27:31To be encouraged.
27:34To be supported.
27:38To be...
27:40appreciated.
27:41To be loved.
27:44Yes.
27:47A toast.
27:48To a first start.
27:50A new beginning.
27:52Happy Easter, my darling.
28:03Happy Easter, my darling.
28:32The first leg of the world tour has come to an end.
28:35The prince and princess have seen a fair slice of the Northern Territory.
28:38The world couple have urged 2,000.
28:40The world wishes were there to greet them.
28:41But the more formal welcome came to the Governor General and the Prime Minister.
28:47We're absolutely delighted to be here. Thank you so much.
28:49Hours before they were due to arrive in the city,
28:52tens of thousands of people began lining the streets from the airport.
28:56By now, the pace was really beginning to pick up, and so too was the public's reaction.
29:00More than 5,500 people cued patiently to take up the best possible position around the ropes...
29:06Here, the reception of the royal couple were getting.
29:10There was a frenzy of waving hands and flags as the prince and princess appeared,
29:14holding hands on the back of their royal house.
29:15The crowds were desperate to get a glimpse of the perfect couple.
29:20The prince and princess are alive.
29:25Even overseas reporters who've seen it all before seemed a little taken aback by the sheer scale.
29:36Please welcome the heir to the throne and Australia's future king,
29:41His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales.
29:52Thank you, Sir James.
29:54In case you've been living in a cave,
29:56perhaps I should introduce you to a most remarkable woman,
29:59and mother, who I am proud to call her wife.
30:07From the end, my body!
30:23From the front of mine!
30:26A ride is too good to be true.
30:30Can't take my eyes off of you
30:33You'd be like heaven to touch
30:37I wanna hold you so much
30:42Everless love has arrived
30:45And I thank God I'm alive
30:49You're just too good to be true
30:53Can't take my eyes off of you
30:56I swear you're giving me a show as hell
31:14I love you, baby
31:17And if it's right or right
31:19I love you, baby
31:21Too warm and lonely night
31:23I love you, baby

33:52along the way the princess was overwhelmed with posies and small gifts
33:56from equally small children
33:57no he's very busy at the moment and cannot comment
34:00his support will not be answering any questions about this at present

35:04one of you.
35:09I'm going to take one of you, and I'm going to take one of you, and I'm going to take
35:17one of you.
35:21I'm going to take one of you, and I'm going to take one of you.
35:48I'm going to take one of you, and I'm going to take one of you.
36:39I'm going to take one of you.
36:48I'm going to take one of you, and I'm going to take one of you.
37:13I'm going to take one of you.
37:37I'm going to take one of you, and I'm going to take one of you.

38:34I'm going to take one of you.
38:38I'm going to take one of you.
38:42I'm going to take one of you.
39:25I'm going to take one of you.
39:27I'm going to take one of you, and I'm going to take one of you.
40:00It's a great pleasure to be able to come to Tasmania
40:02to receive such an enthusiastic and heartwarming welcome.
40:07The last time I was here was two years ago, 1981,
40:12shortly before we were married.
40:13At that time, everybody was saying,
40:16good luck and hope everything goes well
40:19and how lucky you are to be engaged as such a lovely lady.
40:24And my goodness, I am lucky enough to be married to her.
40:32I am.
40:36That's the thing about ladies,
40:38you never quite know what they get up to when your back's turned.
40:44It's the final straw, honestly.
40:46Pulling faces, horsing around while I'm trying to do my job.
40:49I was blushing, blushing at your compliments.
40:51People were laughing at me, laughing in my face,
40:54at the end of a week in which half of Australia has also been booing me.
40:57I don't deserve this.
40:59This was supposed to be my tour.
41:02My tour as Prince of Wales to shore up one of the key countries in the Commonwealth
41:05at a very delicate moment politically, and thanks to you.
41:08Thanks to me, people have shown up.
41:09Thanks to me, people are interested.
41:11No, thanks to you, people are laughing in my face.
41:14Booing the heir to the throne.
41:16Booing the crown.
41:18Oh, come on!
41:19Oh, don't do this!
41:22Please!
41:24Open the door!
41:27Charles?
41:30We still have ten days in New Zealand to get through.
41:50Oh, welcome, Your Royal Highness.
41:52Prime Minister.
41:53Given our different perspectives, our different views
41:56on the appropriate governance of this nation,
42:00I never thought I'd find myself commiserating with you, but...
42:04Let's face it, she's made us both look like chumps.
42:09I don't understand.
42:15Perenallius.
42:17That's what your ancestor, King George III,
42:21called us when the Brits first arrived.
42:25Nobody's country.
42:28Well, by God, we were somebody's country then.
42:33And we're our own country now.
42:37When you arrived, I thought you'd visit might inspire Australia
42:43to finally throw off the shackles and stand on our own two feet.
42:48And, no offence, but if it had just been you, you know,
42:53I might have got my wishes.
42:58But then, you know, she comes along.
43:03The perfect wife, the perfect princess,
43:07and the whole place goes nuts.
43:11The power of fairy tales.
43:17That superstar may have just set back
43:21the cause of republicanism in Australia
43:23for the foreseeable future.
43:36It's important in the safe space.
43:54I don't know.
44:23I don't know.
44:39I don't know.
44:40I don't know.
45:11I agree.
45:15Kensington Palace.
45:35It's a princess of Wales.
45:37I was hoping the Queen might see me.
46:29Welcome back.
46:30Thank you, Mama.
46:32You said I should always call you that.
46:34Of course.
46:39Please.
46:41Thank you, Nigel.
46:48I've come because I don't know who to turn to anymore.
46:53I'm struggling.
46:55Struggling?
46:57I do, to set a triumph.
46:59I don't consider it a triumph if, at the end of it, my husband and I are wretchedly unhappy.
47:05Look at these pictures of you both everywhere.
47:08Are you really telling me that's unhappiness?
47:11Well, not in that moment.
47:13No.
47:13In that moment, it's perfect happiness.
47:17But then behind closed doors, it's a different story.
47:20He resents me, resents the attention I get.
47:24And why is that?
47:26I don't know.
47:29I was hoping you could tell me he's your son.
47:32Because I've been a terrible mother.
47:34Is that what you've come here to tell me?
47:35No.
47:36Or the Duke of Edinburgh, a terrible father.
47:38Of course not.
47:38I struggle to understand Charles sometimes, too.
47:40I think that's no secret.
47:42But us sitting here sticking knives into him isn't helpful either.
47:46And is it also possible that there is a part of you that is enjoying your own success rather too
47:51much?
47:52What is too much?
47:54What is too much?
47:54A smile?
47:55A moment's happiness?
47:56Overstepping the mark is too much.
47:59I think we do all know when we've played to the gallery excessively.
48:02We know.
48:06All right.
48:08Yes.
48:10It does feel good sometimes to be cheered.
48:13It can be a comfort.
48:16Because since I've joined this family, it's not been easy.
48:19I've been given no help, no support, just thrown in the deep end.
48:22And I think that people out there can sense that I've suffered.
48:25That I'm undervalued, ignored.
48:27I think it's a mistake to assume that people are feeling any sympathy for us at all.
48:31And I think it's a mistake to assume they don't.
48:35You've seen how the crowds responded to me in Australia.
48:38Here, too.
48:39And instead of resenting me for it.
48:41I assure you, no one resents you.
48:42Charles resents me.
48:45Anne resents me.
48:46And is it possible that you resent me, too?
48:48All I want is to play for the team.
48:51You're the Princess of Wales, so of course you're part of the team.
48:54Then show me.
48:56This whole thing, it starts and stops with you.
49:00You're the captain of the team.
49:02If you show me love, approval, and acceptance, everyone else will follow.
49:08I think we've gone as far as we can for now.
49:10We can continue another time.
49:11Don't dismiss me, please.
49:13Don't push me away.
49:15What?
49:16Mama.
49:34That's all I want.
49:38It's all any of us want from you.
49:42Is it too much to ask?
49:59A hug?
50:01Yes.
50:02What kind of hug?
50:04A tight, rather desperate hug.
50:07I feel sick.
50:08Yes.
50:11But is it possible that she has a point?
50:15We are rather a tough bunch in this family.
50:18We don't give out much praise or love or thanks.
50:22Perhaps someone like Diana is best placed to...
50:24Hug everyone else, too.
50:26To connect with the modern world.
50:37Diana is an immature little girl who, in time, will give up her struggles, give up her fight, and bend.
50:46As Philip did.
50:48Yes, they all do.
50:49And when she bends, she will fit.
50:53And if she doesn't bend, what then?
50:56She will break.
51:36You're just too good to be true.
51:41Can't take my eyes off of you.
51:44You'd be like heaven to touch.
51:48I want to hold you so much.
51:53As long as love has arrived.
51:56And I thank God I'm alive.
52:00You're just too good to be true.
52:05Can't take my eyes off of you.
52:17I love you, baby.
52:20I love you, baby.
52:21And if it's quite alright, I need you, baby.
52:25To warm the lovely night.
52:26I love you, baby.
52:29Trust in me when I say...
52:33Oh, pretty baby, don't bring me down, I pray.
52:38Oh, pretty baby, now that I've found you, stay.
52:42And let me love you, baby.
52:46Let me love you.
52:48Let me love you.
53:28Let me love you, baby.
53:28Let me love you, baby.
53:29Let me love you, baby.
53:29Let me love you, baby.
53:29Let me love you, baby.
53:29Let me love you, baby.
53:29Let me love you, baby.
53:29Let me love you, baby.
53:30Let me love you, baby.
53:32Let me love you, baby.
53:45Let me love you, baby.
