0:02:11 > 0:02:12At last.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17I needed room for thought to breathe.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26My life has been a lingering for the throne.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Sometimes I must confess I imagined if my mother happ'ed to die
0:02:32 > 0:02:36before her time - a helicopter crash, a rare disease.
0:02:38 > 0:02:42So, at an early age, I'd be in charge.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Before me, years of constant, stable rule...
0:02:49 > 0:02:52..but I am better thoughtful Prince than King.
0:02:55 > 0:03:00Potential holds appeal, since in its castle walls
0:03:00 > 0:03:05one is protected from the awful shame of failure.
0:03:08 > 0:03:13My wond'rous Charles, you did her proud,
0:03:13 > 0:03:17for, as she would have liked, you never showed your pain.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20My whole existence has, like most of us,
0:03:20 > 0:03:22been built upon the ones who gave me birth.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24And now they're gone. That's it.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27First Dad. Now Mum.
0:03:30 > 0:03:31I'm alone.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Except for me.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37Ah, you're radiant.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40'Tis your gift, my dear, it's what you've brought to us -
0:03:40 > 0:03:41a sense of fashion.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Better hair, as well.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46I never thought I'd see her pass away.
0:03:46 > 0:03:47I felt the same.
0:03:48 > 0:03:52How are you, Dad? For soon, at last, you will be King.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54- Not soon.- Three months.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56Your father rules today.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58I thought the coronation marked the change.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00Well, you're right - officially, that is the case.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03But Britain cannot stand without a king or queen
0:04:03 > 0:04:07for all the months it takes to organise a coronation.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09But surely, constitutionally speaking...
0:04:09 > 0:04:13Oh sweet, my dear, we have no constitution.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15Instead tradition holds us to account.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18- Tradition, then...- Tradition holds that on the death of kings,
0:04:18 > 0:04:22or Queens, the next is monarch straight away.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Your father ruled the moment granny passed.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29I might head off. If that's OK.
0:04:29 > 0:04:30Why?
0:04:30 > 0:04:31Headache.
0:04:34 > 0:04:35You really have to go?
0:04:35 > 0:04:37It's not...
0:04:37 > 0:04:38I mean, the whole...
0:04:40 > 0:04:43I can't deal with all the chat. The people.
0:04:43 > 0:04:44It's important, Harry.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Yeah - the headache, though.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53We'll go and mingle with the crowds.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56A single round should be sufficient, then we're at the palace, yes?
0:04:56 > 0:04:59But, Dad, you're shaken up.
0:04:59 > 0:05:00Perhaps we should take time to talk?
0:05:00 > 0:05:03I'm sorry, it must wait - James wants us now.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05The Prime Minister's waiting.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07We'll see you later on.
0:05:08 > 0:05:09All right.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15Prime Minister.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Sincere condolences upon your loss.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20A loss, I think, that all her subjects share.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22Of course. We miss our Queen.
0:05:23 > 0:05:28Your Majesty may not recall - we did decide for public reassurance
0:05:28 > 0:05:30that you would leave with Mr Evans at your side,
0:05:30 > 0:05:33the Crown and State, Prime Minister and King.
0:05:33 > 0:05:38Ah... Now we're here, I feel instead that I should remain...
0:05:38 > 0:05:42aloft from politics, and walk with royals alone.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45I'm sure Prime Minister will understand.
0:05:45 > 0:05:46Of course.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49I'll go right now and... clear the way.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00Such equal billing was a joy when Prince.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03To share the stage did spread attention out -
0:06:03 > 0:06:07but now I'll rise to how things have to be.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10The Queen is dead,
0:06:10 > 0:06:12long live the King.
0:06:14 > 0:06:15That's me.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39Come on, mate, it's better than moping about, eh?
0:06:39 > 0:06:42There's a whole world of opportunity right there.
0:06:42 > 0:06:43Yeah.
0:06:45 > 0:06:46'sup, G?
0:06:46 > 0:06:48You look like you've been raped by Primark.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50Yeah, I had to blend in.
0:06:50 > 0:06:54Thought I'd bag you a bona fide commoner as a surprise.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56She'll be here in a minute.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58She's, erm, distinctive.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02You should take your mind off things, you could, er...
0:07:02 > 0:07:04- Coots!- ..do a pleb.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06- Yeah.- Knob a prole. - Look, I'm not in the mood.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Approach a subject from a different angle, yeah?
0:07:10 > 0:07:11Here she is!
0:07:11 > 0:07:13Jessica!
0:07:13 > 0:07:17You're not joking, then. Invictus himself!
0:07:17 > 0:07:19Er, yeah, look...
0:07:19 > 0:07:22So is Charles really your dad? Or was it the other one?
0:07:22 > 0:07:24The other one?
0:07:24 > 0:07:25- Hewlitt.- Hewitt.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27Cos you're very ginger.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30If you haven't done a test yet, then maybe you should,
0:07:30 > 0:07:31cos if Hewlitt was your dad instead,
0:07:31 > 0:07:33you'd be out of the family, wouldn't you?
0:07:33 > 0:07:34Er, what?
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Free of it at last.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38- Free of it?!- Dear, oh, dear.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40And why - why would I want to be free of it?
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Cos you hate it. Don't you?
0:07:42 > 0:07:43- No.- Not a clue!
0:07:43 > 0:07:45He seriously doesn't, darling.
0:07:45 > 0:07:46Yeah.
0:07:46 > 0:07:51Ever since you left the army, it's been all schmooze, Africa, sport.
0:07:51 > 0:07:55Very worthy but it screams lack of direction - and clearly,
0:07:55 > 0:07:58you hope it'll make you happy. But it doesn't. Does it?
0:07:58 > 0:08:02You're part of this big thing, but you don't get anything back.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Just the drunken uncle.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06It's a trap for you, isn't it?
0:08:08 > 0:08:09Your family.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Er, what-what should I do, then?
0:08:18 > 0:08:20I think it's time for you to tap out, darling.
0:08:20 > 0:08:21No, no, Coottsey...
0:08:23 > 0:08:27Spencer. Someone wants you at the bar.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30Mate, you realise she's probably a socialist?
0:08:30 > 0:08:33No, no. Come on. Not wanted!
0:08:39 > 0:08:41So? What-What should I do?
0:08:43 > 0:08:45You really want to know?
0:08:52 > 0:08:54Shall I be mother?
0:08:54 > 0:08:56Thank you, yes, that's kind.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59Good then, erm, how shall we begin?
0:08:59 > 0:09:02Er, today I thought we might commence by talking of a bill
0:09:02 > 0:09:04about to land upon your desk that seeks the royal approval.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06Yes? What bill do you mean?
0:09:06 > 0:09:10To limit future growth and mass expanse of runways.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12- What environmental checks... - You must excuse me,
0:09:12 > 0:09:13much as this wants our attention,
0:09:13 > 0:09:17I had assumed we'd start with, erm, something else.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20Well, of course. Whichever subject you would like.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Your bill concerning privacy,
0:09:22 > 0:09:26which sets restriction on the freedom of the press.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31The regulation of the press we feel is overdue...
0:09:31 > 0:09:32Yes - I've, er, read the bill.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Well, erm...
0:09:36 > 0:09:37Good.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41You like this law?
0:09:42 > 0:09:44I absolutely do.
0:09:44 > 0:09:48You yourself must know the lasting wounds the press inflict.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51Unproven accusations, photographs obtained by theft,
0:09:51 > 0:09:54are daily 'splayed as front page news.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57You do not think a principle is here at stake?
0:09:57 > 0:10:00There's something vital to our sense of freedom is being risked.
0:10:00 > 0:10:01Your Majesty,
0:10:01 > 0:10:04of course I understand that view, and have myself considered
0:10:04 > 0:10:09where the balance lay, but there is opinion that something must be done.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11The law is what your people want.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13They want the leaders they elected
0:10:13 > 0:10:16standing up and making choices they themselves cannot.
0:10:16 > 0:10:20They pay their taxes well, so we - or you -
0:10:20 > 0:10:26may take the time to study hard and make the right decision on the day.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28I know. I have -
0:10:28 > 0:10:29and this is what we think.
0:10:36 > 0:10:37I have to say it does surprise
0:10:37 > 0:10:39that with the great intrusion they have made into your life,
0:10:39 > 0:10:42you'd have them left untouched like this.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45What of the pack of wolves that mercilessly did hunt to death
0:10:45 > 0:10:47your late and much missed wife?
0:10:47 > 0:10:50That's bold. So soon in our relationship.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52What's bold?
0:10:52 > 0:10:54To utilise Diana.
0:11:03 > 0:11:04I'm sorry.
0:11:08 > 0:11:09But, in fact, it's rare
0:11:09 > 0:11:12to have to justify the passing of a law like this.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14I would have thought of all the victims,
0:11:14 > 0:11:16you'd feel the strongest something must be done.
0:11:16 > 0:11:21As a man, a father, husband, yes, I do.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26But that's not who we are when sat with you in here.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Not just am I defender of the faith,
0:11:30 > 0:11:33but in addition I protect this country's unique force
0:11:33 > 0:11:35and way of life.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39Politically our sway and influence are in decline
0:11:39 > 0:11:44but still we demonstrate the way a just society should work -
0:11:44 > 0:11:49judiciary, democracy and more - a low corruption rate.
0:11:49 > 0:11:53All those who hold the strings held to account themselves in turn.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55Your Majesty - thanks.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00I understand and say I will, if opportunity transpires,
0:12:00 > 0:12:02make sure I take your views into account.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05Perhaps we should move on to other things.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08It is the law on privacy that holds concern.
0:12:08 > 0:12:12And so I ask you tell me what, as my Prime Minister, you do intend.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14The law is made, and passed. It is too late.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21My views, to you, mean nothing, then?
0:12:22 > 0:12:25Your views mean much,
0:12:25 > 0:12:29but on this subject, yes. I disagree.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32The public vote to choose the members of their parliament,
0:12:32 > 0:12:34and that's where decisions will be made.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Not in this room between the two of us.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38Then our weekly meeting's done.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44I should apologise if I've caused offence -
0:12:44 > 0:12:45I simply wanted to explain my view.
0:12:45 > 0:12:49And so you have. We'll meet next week.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51You recognise my guest.
0:12:51 > 0:12:52Mr Evans.
0:12:53 > 0:12:58I reasoned thus - in case there did arise an accusation
0:12:58 > 0:13:00that my vision here of left and right
0:13:00 > 0:13:02was being tilted out of proper balance,
0:13:02 > 0:13:04I will from now on make sure each week
0:13:04 > 0:13:07I have the usual half an hour with my good Prime Minister,
0:13:07 > 0:13:11but then give equal time for Leader of the Opposition, too.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16Mr Evans is a man of principle.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18But he does not like me,
0:13:18 > 0:13:23and has made explicit that he will not change a single thing
0:13:23 > 0:13:25in light of what I say.
0:13:25 > 0:13:29And if this is the case, then, erm, what am I?
0:13:31 > 0:13:35My mother gained respect from what she'd seen.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38The Blitz... She sat with Churchill,
0:13:38 > 0:13:41and met all the most important figures of her years.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44But what am I?
0:13:47 > 0:13:50It may not be too late to stop the law.
0:13:50 > 0:13:51But when I sign the bill...
0:13:51 > 0:13:52If you sign the bill.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57For surely that requirement remains your choice.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00A ceremonial right, not one to use.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02I hate to differ, but I think this strikes the heart
0:14:02 > 0:14:04of why we have a Queen - or King.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08They are the check and balance of our land.
0:14:08 > 0:14:12I've long believed that we could never see a Nazi party
0:14:12 > 0:14:13making British laws
0:14:13 > 0:14:16because the reigning monarch then would stand his ground
0:14:16 > 0:14:18and, being head of state, refuse to sign -
0:14:18 > 0:14:21refuse to let the country lose democracy,
0:14:21 > 0:14:24and, doing so, provoke revolt.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29It's not our place.
0:14:29 > 0:14:32Would do more harm than good.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36Then not important.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Write your name in ink,
0:14:38 > 0:14:40and un-amended let it into law.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45Thank you, er, Mrs Stevens.
0:14:47 > 0:14:48Your Majesty.
0:15:00 > 0:15:11# I who have died am alive again
0:15:11 > 0:15:19# Today

0:16:19 > 0:16:24Hey, you're lucky - she doesn't usually put out much.
0:16:24 > 0:16:28Oh, yeah, actually we, we haven't done anything like that,
0:16:28 > 0:16:31- just went out, had fun, so...- Yeah!
0:16:31 > 0:16:34- All right, too late for tea. Got a seminar.- Right.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36Good to meet you.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39I'm Robert. Bob. What's your name?
0:16:39 > 0:16:41Harry.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45Harry. Right. Bye.

0:16:58 > 0:17:01Erm, I was just...making some tea.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03Er, I'll, er, get the milk.
0:17:07 > 0:17:08You all right?
0:17:08 > 0:17:11Yeah, great. Really great.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15God, can you believe it?
0:17:15 > 0:17:17What?
0:17:17 > 0:17:21Everything we did last night. Wetherspoons. Bowling.
0:17:21 > 0:17:22Dans Le Noir.
0:17:23 > 0:17:27The restaurant where you eat in the pitch black!
0:17:27 > 0:17:29They thought I was an estate agent.
0:17:29 > 0:17:30THEY LAUGH
0:17:32 > 0:17:33This whole life!
0:17:35 > 0:17:36I want more.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38No-one's stopping you.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40A night, yeah, but I can't do this with my life!
0:17:40 > 0:17:41Why not?
0:17:45 > 0:17:47It's not what I was born into.
0:17:49 > 0:17:50Then change it.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54The world you were born into was paid for
0:17:54 > 0:17:56by those people in Wetherspoons.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58You take money from their hard work
0:17:58 > 0:18:01and you spend it on planes, and palaces,
0:18:01 > 0:18:04and, in your case, flights to Las Vegas.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06It's not your money to spend.
0:18:06 > 0:18:07Have you been to Las Vegas?
0:18:07 > 0:18:09It looks boring.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Yeah! Yeah, it is, actually.
0:18:12 > 0:18:16My mate Dee, she had her baby in this crap hospital.
0:18:16 > 0:18:17Shared ward,
0:18:17 > 0:18:20pissed-off midwife, 20 mums.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23She puts on the TV, and what does she see?
0:18:23 > 0:18:28Kate, your sister-in-law, with her perfect baby,
0:18:28 > 0:18:29outside her private hospital.
0:18:29 > 0:18:33Dee was like, "I paid for that. My taxes."
0:18:38 > 0:18:40You're very beautiful.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43- Don't patronise me - listen to what I'm saying.- I am -
0:18:43 > 0:18:46I know what you're saying, and I agree with it,
0:18:46 > 0:18:50but I'm adding, in addition, that you're beautiful, as well.
0:18:53 > 0:18:57You know Bob wants nothing less than the abolition of the monarchy.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01Yeah, well, he should be more open minded.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04Well, imagine what he'd say if I got off with you.
0:19:05 > 0:19:06Do you want to?
0:19:06 > 0:19:08- What?- Get off with me?
0:19:08 > 0:19:10Harry, I hate everything you stand for.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Yeah, I know.
0:19:12 > 0:19:13Right, then.
0:19:15 > 0:19:19Yeah. It's, it's just, you really look like you want to kiss me.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23Yeah, well, I don't.
0:19:39 > 0:19:40This is a mistake.
0:19:43 > 0:19:45KNOCKING AT DOOR
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Forgot his keys, probably.
0:19:58 > 0:19:59Wait, wait!
0:20:02 > 0:20:04Yes?
0:20:04 > 0:20:05Your Highness.
0:20:06 > 0:20:07Oh.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09Apologies for interrupting.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12James Cadbury Reiss, press advisor to the palace. May I?
0:20:19 > 0:20:21This is Jessica.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24- Hi.- Charmed.
0:20:24 > 0:20:25Your Highness.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28Your grandmother, the Queen, recently passed away.
0:20:28 > 0:20:32The country's in a position very few people have experienced before.
0:20:32 > 0:20:36This is perhaps the most unstable moment the royal family will face.
0:20:36 > 0:20:41- So...?- So, perhaps a conversation should be had about...
0:20:42 > 0:20:43..timing.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47Your security are waiting outside.
0:20:48 > 0:20:49Goodbye.
0:20:51 > 0:20:52SHE SCOFFS
0:20:53 > 0:20:54Wow.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58That, there, is why I'm never getting off with you again.
0:21:06 > 0:21:07Yeah.
0:21:10 > 0:21:11I understand.
0:21:15 > 0:21:16SHE SIGHS
0:21:19 > 0:21:20KEYS RATTLE
0:21:26 > 0:21:27Can I call you?
0:21:28 > 0:21:29Yeah.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES
0:21:52 > 0:21:53It's good of you to come and see us here.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57It's so important that we meet like this.
0:22:00 > 0:22:01Especially now.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06That as a family we have this time to talk.
0:22:13 > 0:22:14Excuse me.
0:22:19 > 0:22:20DOOR CLOSES
0:22:25 > 0:22:28When offered what he's wanted for so long,
0:22:28 > 0:22:32I thought Dad would seize the moment and renew, to go greet the people.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35Instead, he stays inside, just reading books and bills.
0:22:36 > 0:22:37It isn't what I'd hoped.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39Then why not talk to him?
0:22:41 > 0:22:42Oh, Lord.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45Oh...you're William and Kate.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47They said I was to wait here and soon the King would join.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50They didn't mention you were settled here, as well. I'll, erm...
0:22:50 > 0:22:52- HE CLEARS HIS THROAT - I'll quickly go sit elsewhere.
0:22:52 > 0:22:56But, sir - you look so pale, distraught, you must sit down.
0:22:56 > 0:22:58I'd rather that than have you faint.
0:22:58 > 0:22:59You're kind to me.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01So sudden? What's the cause?
0:23:01 > 0:23:04You will forgive me if I do not give detail of my conference.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06It is a matter of some...delicacy.
0:23:06 > 0:23:07But if it causes such distress...?
0:23:07 > 0:23:11Of course, we understand, and will not press on you.
0:23:11 > 0:23:12Perhaps some water?
0:23:12 > 0:23:14Thanks.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20Must be something virulent indeed that does affect
0:23:20 > 0:23:22the King as strongly as Prime Minister.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26Perhaps it is an illness passing round?
0:23:26 > 0:23:28No illness, Duchess, no,
0:23:28 > 0:23:30a matter that need only trouble him and I for now.
0:23:32 > 0:23:33Please tell me what.
0:23:34 > 0:23:35Perhaps I might...
0:23:35 > 0:23:39relieve the harshness of this mystery sore.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45In reading here, you mustn't tell a soul
0:23:45 > 0:23:47what's written - or not written - by the King.
0:23:49 > 0:23:50Dear Mr Evans, water,
0:23:50 > 0:23:53fetched and got by careful hand of Prince of Wales.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55Thank you.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59But, Kate, what on that paper makes that look
0:23:59 > 0:24:02which from experience I know tends doom and fury
0:24:02 > 0:24:04from your normally soft and poised face?
0:24:10 > 0:24:11I take it this is not a fake?
0:24:11 > 0:24:14It's not...for Charles has marked it there himself,
0:24:14 > 0:24:17and I as people's leader come to say this will not stand.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21He must allow this bill to pass, both signed and unamended.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27But, William, why would your father interfere
0:24:27 > 0:24:29so crassly in the affairs of state?
0:24:30 > 0:24:31My husband, what say you?
0:24:31 > 0:24:33Nothing.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35Say more, for nothing comes of nothing said.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37My father's King.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41He may have reason that we do not know or understand, as yet -
0:24:41 > 0:24:44but we, as son and daughter of the Crown, will only give support,
0:24:44 > 0:24:47and leave dispute to those who have a stake in what is being argued on.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50Well, you have a stake. Much more than most.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53We will depart, allowing you to talk.
0:24:54 > 0:24:55The opposition with me agreed
0:24:55 > 0:24:57that, even though they did not want this bill,
0:24:57 > 0:24:58and would not have it law...
0:24:58 > 0:25:00You've talked to Mrs Stevens?
0:25:00 > 0:25:01What said she?
0:25:01 > 0:25:03The same.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05That you must sign.
0:25:07 > 0:25:08HE EXHALES
0:25:10 > 0:25:13But of course she said I must.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16Your Majesty, have you thought what people will, when hearing that
0:25:16 > 0:25:18you have reserved assent, be wont to do?
0:25:19 > 0:25:21Division would result.
0:25:23 > 0:25:27I beg you, sir, let's talk some more as months and years go on, but...
0:25:27 > 0:25:28here it is.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Perhaps you could just get your pen and sign the bill.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55You have not changed a word?
0:25:55 > 0:25:56It is the same.
0:26:07 > 0:26:11Were there solution evident that could enable both of us
0:26:11 > 0:26:13to have our way and... take it in an instant.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18For I know you're acting out of conscience.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20That's right, and in good conscience I have thought
0:26:20 > 0:26:23that, come the moment, surely I could sign.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28But when the pen approaches paper thus,
0:26:28 > 0:26:31about to store forever my assent,
0:26:31 > 0:26:33the pen dries up.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36My hand, it cannot write.
0:26:36 > 0:26:40For if my name is given through routine,
0:26:40 > 0:26:43and not because it represents my view,
0:26:43 > 0:26:45then soon I'll have no name,
0:26:45 > 0:26:46and nameless, I...
0:26:48 > 0:26:50..have not myself.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52This is your role. You surely must have...
0:26:52 > 0:26:54Not since the news was born
0:26:54 > 0:26:58has Government and State been there allowed to use the threat of jail
0:26:58 > 0:27:02to stop the presses based on what THEY deem is unacceptable.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04The Queen did not, in all her years bethroned,
0:27:04 > 0:27:06face laws like this to pass.
0:27:06 > 0:27:10I do agree. For, in her time, she faced far greater revolution.
0:27:10 > 0:27:11When she lost an empire.
0:27:14 > 0:27:17She oversaw the alteration from the unions, mines and factories
0:27:17 > 0:27:19that stood for generations,
0:27:19 > 0:27:21to a world that, Thatcherated,
0:27:21 > 0:27:25Reaganised, did place the profit higher value than the pride
0:27:25 > 0:27:27belonging to the man who travels, day by day,
0:27:27 > 0:27:29upon the Clapham omnibus.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32And through all this, when laws arrived from those
0:27:32 > 0:27:34prime ministers she hated,
0:27:34 > 0:27:37doing things of which I'm sure she never would approve,
0:27:37 > 0:27:39she still did sign. Respected all the votes
0:27:39 > 0:27:43empowering those elect to make the law. She always signed.
0:27:43 > 0:27:44She always gave assent.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09Well...
0:28:11 > 0:28:13..I cannot.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24I'm sorry, sir, but if I leave this room without "King Charles"
0:28:24 > 0:28:26imprinted there below, I cannot keep it secret.
0:28:27 > 0:28:31And in addition, I'll ensure this bill becomes the law
0:28:31 > 0:28:32without your royal assent.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35Redraft the law with changes
0:28:35 > 0:28:39that defend the independence of the press and send it back,
0:28:39 > 0:28:42and I will sign immediately.
0:28:46 > 0:28:48Your Majesty...
0:28:48 > 0:28:49no.
0:29:06 > 0:29:09You are sure that this is what you want to do?
0:29:09 > 0:29:12Without my voice and spirit,
0:29:12 > 0:29:14I am dust.
0:29:18 > 0:29:19This is not what I want...
0:29:22 > 0:29:24..but what I must.
0:29:33 > 0:29:35DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES
0:29:43 > 0:29:45With the bill concerning privacy
0:29:45 > 0:29:48and the statutory regulation of the press,
0:29:48 > 0:29:51the King has unexpectedly refused to grant assent.
0:29:51 > 0:29:55And despite his knowledge that the royal assent is ceremonial
0:29:55 > 0:29:58and not a tool, he has continued to withhold his pen.
0:29:58 > 0:30:02So, here I say, importantly,
0:30:02 > 0:30:05that first we must defend democracy itself.
0:30:08 > 0:30:11I am speaking from the palace to you all...
0:30:11 > 0:30:12reluctantly.
0:30:14 > 0:30:17I had a hope my ministers and I could find a way
0:30:17 > 0:30:21to circumvent a public feud like this.
0:30:21 > 0:30:23But, driven by my conscience,
0:30:23 > 0:30:27I have declined to pass a law that would give Government
0:30:27 > 0:30:29the right and power to restrict
0:30:29 > 0:30:32what is acceptable to say in print.
0:30:33 > 0:30:36Once fragile politicians can,
0:30:36 > 0:30:39whilst claiming public sensitivity,
0:30:39 > 0:30:42go censoring what is writ or not,
0:30:42 > 0:30:45it will be easier to govern as corrupt
0:30:45 > 0:30:49than bother being held unto account.
0:30:49 > 0:30:53And therefore I, who stand outside the rough and tumble
0:30:53 > 0:30:57of expedience, do caution...
0:30:57 > 0:30:58and ask they think again.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02So far, they have refused.
0:31:02 > 0:31:06- ..weight, influence to the shaping of the Government.- MPS:- Hear, hear.
0:31:06 > 0:31:10So now do I, as King and...
0:31:10 > 0:31:12servant to the populace...
0:31:14 > 0:31:18..request your understanding and your trust
0:31:18 > 0:31:22that this, a rare but necessary act,
0:31:22 > 0:31:25is not me stepping too far from the throne,
0:31:25 > 0:31:30but is my duty, and fulfilling what the king or queen
0:31:30 > 0:31:32is sworn by oath to do.
0:31:39 > 0:31:40You're late.
0:31:40 > 0:31:43Well, if you'd seen the news, perhaps you'd realised
0:31:43 > 0:31:44I've been rather busy.
0:31:46 > 0:31:49So, what's wrong?
0:31:49 > 0:31:52Increasingly, there's stories in the papers about me and Harry.
0:31:52 > 0:31:55I suppose they think that I'm a quite unusual match
0:31:55 > 0:31:56because of class.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58Yes, well, that's hardly a surprise.
0:32:00 > 0:32:04Three years ago, I knew a boy called Fin,
0:32:04 > 0:32:06who was a dick, if truth be told.
0:32:06 > 0:32:09But because we lived in different cities, did text our love.
0:32:09 > 0:32:11I'm guessing where this goes.
0:32:11 > 0:32:14One day, when I was in the mood, I had composed a text
0:32:14 > 0:32:17expressing love and stuff, which then I sent...
0:32:18 > 0:32:21..but now he contacts me again and makes a threat.
0:32:21 > 0:32:23He threatens you with one small text?
0:32:23 > 0:32:27Yeah, well, in truth, it did contain additional form.
0:32:27 > 0:32:31- You mean...?- Some pictures of myself that were artistic, yeah?
0:32:31 > 0:32:33His e-mail said he'd seen the news,
0:32:33 > 0:32:37and since I was so clearly after gold, he should have his.
0:32:38 > 0:32:40He said if I do not pay up,
0:32:40 > 0:32:42he'd send the photo to the Sun on Sunday.
0:32:44 > 0:32:46It's blackmail, so you could approach police -
0:32:46 > 0:32:48but they, I warn you, leak like carrier bags,
0:32:48 > 0:32:51and have no love for matters Royal these days.
0:32:51 > 0:32:53If truly you wish to save the Prince,
0:32:53 > 0:32:55perhaps you need to leave his side,
0:32:55 > 0:32:58and so doing take from this man the power he now has.
0:32:58 > 0:33:02If this was Harry or the King, you would do something.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05You don't understand, miss, you are not part of the family.
0:33:07 > 0:33:08MOBILE BUZZES
0:33:08 > 0:33:09HE SCOFFS
0:33:10 > 0:33:12Of all the moments you could pick.
0:33:37 > 0:33:41Opinion polls suggest the people are divided almost equally
0:33:41 > 0:33:44as to if my non-signing is within my rights...
0:33:45 > 0:33:47..or not.
0:33:47 > 0:33:50But that half's far more than I expected
0:33:50 > 0:33:52would agree with me on this.
0:33:53 > 0:33:56Whatever many like to think,
0:33:56 > 0:33:59there is a wise and ancient bond
0:33:59 > 0:34:01between the Crown and population
0:34:01 > 0:34:03of this pleasant isle.
0:34:03 > 0:34:04FOOTSTEPS APPROACH
0:34:09 > 0:34:12Charles, you have a visitor.
0:34:12 > 0:34:15Oh, not Mr Evans? No, I'm tired.
0:34:15 > 0:34:17It's Mrs Stevens.
0:34:19 > 0:34:20I see.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22Be careful.
0:34:25 > 0:34:26I do not trust her well.
0:34:29 > 0:34:30DOOR CLOSES
0:34:30 > 0:34:34Your Majesty, please forgive how late it is.
0:34:34 > 0:34:36I was not keen to draw attention
0:34:36 > 0:34:38to the fact that we had a conference tonight.
0:34:38 > 0:34:39I'm sure you weren't,
0:34:39 > 0:34:42since vocally you've been most critical of what I've done,
0:34:42 > 0:34:46despite a week before assuring me of your complete support.
0:34:46 > 0:34:48Forgive me, but all I think I did
0:34:48 > 0:34:51was draw attention to your rights as King.
0:34:52 > 0:34:56A politician's tongue you have indeed.
0:34:56 > 0:34:58It's late. I'm tired.
0:34:58 > 0:34:59Cut to the chase.
0:35:01 > 0:35:04Tomorrow, Mr Evans' bill is read
0:35:04 > 0:35:06that makes it clear a law cannot be halted
0:35:06 > 0:35:08waiting for the King's assent.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11This bill will pass, and when it does,
0:35:11 > 0:35:14the Crown will lose the right to speak forever more.
0:35:14 > 0:35:16So I had wondered what Your Majesty did plan
0:35:16 > 0:35:19to fix this far erroneous course.
0:35:19 > 0:35:21Because, you see, the vote's tomorrow -
0:35:21 > 0:35:23and I for one would not be happy
0:35:23 > 0:35:26that the influence our monarch has is changed.
0:35:26 > 0:35:29Therefore, you think the better evil is take pen and sign
0:35:29 > 0:35:32the wretched and corrupted bill?
0:35:32 > 0:35:35It is not up to me to tell the King what he has privilege to do,
0:35:35 > 0:35:37but if he needed inspiration,
0:35:37 > 0:35:39he could mull how William IV
0:35:39 > 0:35:42resolved a not entirely different situation.
0:35:44 > 0:35:46William IV?
0:35:50 > 0:35:53I just suggest you might research the past.
0:35:54 > 0:35:56Your Majesty.
0:36:18 > 0:36:25# Lacrimosa dies illa
0:36:27 > 0:36:34# Qua resurget ex favilla
0:36:35 > 0:36:43# Judicandus homo reus
0:36:45 > 0:36:53# Huic ergo parce Deus... #
0:36:55 > 0:36:57You think I didn't love you.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00It's not true.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03Diana?
0:37:03 > 0:37:05An indecisive man,
0:37:05 > 0:37:07and oft so sad,
0:37:07 > 0:37:11will be the greatest king we ever had.
0:37:13 > 0:37:21# Lacrimosa... #
0:37:24 > 0:37:25The greatest king?
0:37:28 > 0:37:31SCREAM ECHOES
0:37:35 > 0:37:37You're never up this early in the morn
0:37:37 > 0:37:38unless for you it's still the night before.
0:37:38 > 0:37:40I'm...I'm sure I heard a scream.
0:37:40 > 0:37:42So did I.
0:37:42 > 0:37:44So like our mother's voice.
0:37:44 > 0:37:45It freaked me out.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47I've checked, there's nothing going on.
0:37:47 > 0:37:50Well, that's the story of my life.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53Once woke, I lay and thought, "I've had enough."
0:37:55 > 0:37:58This appointed house we share is yours, not mine.
0:37:58 > 0:38:01You will be King, Kate your Queen.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03Even if our father's making waves,
0:38:03 > 0:38:06at least he's allowed to choose his course, but I just...
0:38:06 > 0:38:09chase your wake, a ginger joke, bereft of value.
0:38:09 > 0:38:13The way our father acts, the joke may be on all of us.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16But then, I saw my phone and found that Jess had sent a text
0:38:16 > 0:38:18which said she thought that it would never work.
0:38:20 > 0:38:22She would embarrass me.
0:38:22 > 0:38:25From what I've read, I thought this Jessica did cheer your mood?
0:38:25 > 0:38:27The two of you had fun?
0:38:27 > 0:38:30We have, she does - and not just fun.
0:38:34 > 0:38:38We have done things that most do every day but...
0:38:38 > 0:38:41I assumed were not within my compass Royal.
0:38:43 > 0:38:45She has unblinkered me,
0:38:45 > 0:38:46and op'ed my eyes.
0:38:48 > 0:38:52The world is wider now, more depth and shape, but...
0:38:52 > 0:38:54with this new perspective,
0:38:54 > 0:38:57I do only seem more trapped...
0:38:57 > 0:38:58by this, the family.
0:38:58 > 0:39:01There will be girls to come, there've always been before.
0:39:01 > 0:39:02She's not just a girl.
0:39:02 > 0:39:05And if our father's crisis black does shadow more,
0:39:05 > 0:39:08I hope that I can turn, as I've always done, to you.
0:39:11 > 0:39:14And you'll be there, already at my side,
0:39:14 > 0:39:17the pact our mother made us make
0:39:17 > 0:39:20as resolute as on the day was sworn.
0:39:21 > 0:39:26# Lacrimosa
0:39:28 > 0:39:34# Lacrimosa. #
0:39:40 > 0:39:42It's not too late.
0:39:42 > 0:39:45Just go at once and persuade your father of the damage he inflicts.
0:39:45 > 0:39:47- Catherine, I cannot.- You can.
0:39:52 > 0:39:57Since Mum died, he's wondered if myself and Harry
0:39:57 > 0:40:01are more loyal to mother lost than to our father who survived and aged.
0:40:01 > 0:40:03To question him on such a subject now,
0:40:03 > 0:40:06when he, I know, will be embattled and besieged,
0:40:06 > 0:40:08will in a second make him draw away.
0:40:08 > 0:40:10- Instead...- Your Highness?
0:40:10 > 0:40:11The Prime Minister.
0:40:11 > 0:40:12Thank you. Show him in.
0:40:13 > 0:40:15Go back to bed and leave all this to me.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17I will not go.
0:40:17 > 0:40:19For surely you'll be King some day -
0:40:19 > 0:40:20but on that day I am as much the Queen
0:40:20 > 0:40:23and I do not intend to be a silent partner in that regal match.
0:40:27 > 0:40:29FOOTSTEPS APPROACH
0:40:30 > 0:40:33Before, when sleeping, did you hear a scream?
0:40:33 > 0:40:35A scream? What scream?
0:40:37 > 0:40:40Good Mr Evans, what a kindness shown to come at such an early hour thus.
0:40:40 > 0:40:43I fear my family does cause you pains.
0:40:43 > 0:40:44My lady, I cannot pretend that, yes,
0:40:44 > 0:40:49my life would be a joy in recent weeks if Britain was republic.
0:40:50 > 0:40:51Today, you still intend to call together
0:40:51 > 0:40:53all the members of the House,
0:40:53 > 0:40:55and then propose exclusion of the Crown from making law?
0:40:55 > 0:40:58I do. Ideally, I'd preserve the role of the Crown.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00But as things stand, I haven't got a choice.
0:41:00 > 0:41:03Would you consider waiting for a week,
0:41:03 > 0:41:05and giving time to let my father change?
0:41:05 > 0:41:07Already, we have waited, and he changes not.
0:41:07 > 0:41:09What if William went at earliest hour to see his father?
0:41:09 > 0:41:12- Kate, I can't.- What time's the vote?
0:41:12 > 0:41:14It's 11 o'clock.
0:41:14 > 0:41:17I wonder if Prime Minister might have one more attempt?
0:41:17 > 0:41:20See, I cannot think that if my father truly understood...
0:41:20 > 0:41:23He comprehends it well. He will not sign.
0:41:23 > 0:41:25I have no choice.
0:41:26 > 0:41:28My nervous future King,
0:41:28 > 0:41:30it's not just him or you you risk
0:41:30 > 0:41:32by sitting here and doing nothing thus -
0:41:32 > 0:41:35it is our children, and their children hence,
0:41:35 > 0:41:38and after that all generations Royal that are to come.
0:41:38 > 0:41:41They all do look to you, insisting you defend the Crown
0:41:41 > 0:41:43against this fool's indulgence.
0:41:43 > 0:41:46It wouldn't change a thing. He is too proud.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49Then think not only of persuading him,
0:41:49 > 0:41:52- but finding lever so he must agree. - What lever?
0:41:52 > 0:41:55The fact that both of us command support
0:41:55 > 0:41:57that near thrice outweigh the aged King...
0:41:57 > 0:42:01and if we wanted might begin to itch in waiting for the Throne.
0:42:01 > 0:42:03I will never step across my father's right.
0:42:06 > 0:42:09I'm sorry it's come to this. I really am.
0:42:27 > 0:42:29You did embarrass him.
0:42:29 > 0:42:30DOOR CLOSES IN DISTANCE
0:42:37 > 0:42:38My husband, look at me.
0:42:44 > 0:42:47My love for you is full and as the moment that we met.
0:42:49 > 0:42:51I do not think you weak at all, but wrong.
0:42:53 > 0:42:57- Now, become the man I know you are and act.- I am not King.
0:43:24 > 0:43:25CLOCK TICKS
0:43:32 > 0:43:38# Lacrimosa dies illa... #
0:43:38 > 0:43:40RHYTHMIC CREAKING
0:43:40 > 0:43:48# Qua resurget ex favilla
0:43:49 > 0:43:57# Judicandus homo reus... #
0:43:57 > 0:43:59William.
0:44:01 > 0:44:04You're now the man I never lived to see.
0:44:06 > 0:44:09Such pain, my son, such hurt.
0:44:11 > 0:44:12But now be glad...
0:44:15 > 0:44:19..you'll be the greatest king we ever had.
0:44:19 > 0:44:29# Lacrimosa dies illa... #
0:44:32 > 0:44:34Long night, then?
0:44:34 > 0:44:35I, erm...
0:44:37 > 0:44:39I think I might quit my job.
0:44:41 > 0:44:43Be careful about that...
0:44:43 > 0:44:45way things are.
0:44:46 > 0:44:49I mean, we all have shit jobs, don't we?
0:44:51 > 0:44:55Don't want to be rude, but perhaps your mum and dad can help you out?
0:44:55 > 0:44:56My mum's dead.
0:44:57 > 0:44:58Oh, right.
0:45:00 > 0:45:01Mine, too.
0:45:03 > 0:45:05I suppose everybody's mother dies one day.
0:45:08 > 0:45:09Even the King.
0:45:09 > 0:45:11His mother dies, he don't even cry.
0:45:13 > 0:45:14Now what's that about?
0:45:16 > 0:45:18Why do you want to quit, then?
0:45:18 > 0:45:20I think I'm in love.
0:45:26 > 0:45:28Hmm, pretty girl?
0:45:28 > 0:45:29Yeah.
0:45:29 > 0:45:30You going to run off with her?
0:45:31 > 0:45:33Maybe.
0:45:37 > 0:45:39Found that money yet?
0:45:41 > 0:45:44Yeah, sorry.
0:45:47 > 0:45:49Out of date now, innit?
0:45:52 > 0:45:56You know, since she died, world's gone mad, I swear.
0:45:58 > 0:46:00Every night, people have this look.
0:46:00 > 0:46:02Bit like you.
0:46:05 > 0:46:07And it's like they're terrified.
0:46:07 > 0:46:09They don't know where they live.
0:46:10 > 0:46:13They don't know what Britain is.
0:46:13 > 0:46:15What do you mean?
0:46:17 > 0:46:18Like this meat here.
0:46:20 > 0:46:21It's not one thing.
0:46:21 > 0:46:24Different pieces, different slices,
0:46:24 > 0:46:27collected around one core piece of steel.
0:46:28 > 0:46:31But you take that away, it all falls apart.
0:46:32 > 0:46:36Maybe she is what held it all together.
0:46:40 > 0:46:42Where's this girl of yours, then?
0:46:44 > 0:46:45She left me.
0:46:47 > 0:46:48Do you love her?
0:46:49 > 0:46:50Yeah.
0:46:52 > 0:46:53Yeah, I think I do.
0:46:55 > 0:46:56Find her.
0:47:29 > 0:47:32- MRS STEVENS: - 'I thank you, Mr Speaker,
0:47:32 > 0:47:35'and because we know the facts upon the matter well,
0:47:35 > 0:47:37'I will unusually be very brief.'
0:47:37 > 0:47:39LAUGHTER
0:47:39 > 0:47:44'There is a contract made between a man or woman and the State...'
0:47:44 > 0:47:45Kate?
0:47:45 > 0:47:47'..to which both sides must there agree,
0:47:47 > 0:47:51'that citizen does have a voice and in return will keep the law.
0:47:51 > 0:47:56'And so an intervention such as this which so removes the voice,
0:47:56 > 0:47:59'but keeps the law is absolutely wrong...'
0:47:59 > 0:48:00'Hear, hear!'
0:48:03 > 0:48:05Not at the table.
0:48:15 > 0:48:19- MR EVANS:- 'I make assumption we all will vote in favour of this bill.
0:48:19 > 0:48:23'We all here now have made a choice to come and represent
0:48:23 > 0:48:26'constituents to have their say in this, their House,
0:48:26 > 0:48:29'and give their weight and influence...'
0:48:29 > 0:48:31Where is he?
0:48:31 > 0:48:32He's upstairs.
0:48:33 > 0:48:35He'll be down shortly.
0:48:35 > 0:48:36Upstairs?!
0:48:36 > 0:48:38Roberts said he was not to be disturbed.
0:48:39 > 0:48:41'..and now he oversteps...'
0:48:43 > 0:48:45So we must act.
0:48:45 > 0:48:49And not out of disrespect, but since we have no other choice
0:48:49 > 0:48:53than to protect our democratic, British, way of life.
0:48:53 > 0:48:56ALL: Hear, hear!
0:48:56 > 0:49:00And now by ancient process, on this most important matter,
0:49:00 > 0:49:02we'll divide the House.
0:49:02 > 0:49:05THREE LOUD KNOCKS
0:49:13 > 0:49:16We will divide the House and vote.
0:49:16 > 0:49:17Ayes to the left...
0:49:17 > 0:49:20FOUR LOUD KNOCKS

0:49:30 > 0:49:44# Dona eis requiem. #
0:49:50 > 0:49:52Empowered by ancient decree I do,
0:49:52 > 0:49:57as King of England, Northern Ireland, Wales and Scotland,
0:49:57 > 0:50:03use my Royal prerogative here to dissolve the Parliament at once.

0:50:07 > 0:50:10Order! Order!
0:50:13 > 0:50:14Order!
0:50:16 > 0:50:18Order!
0:50:21 > 0:50:23I will have silence!
0:50:23 > 0:50:26This noise demeans you all.
0:50:26 > 0:50:30Is this the space where public will is spoke and heard,
0:50:30 > 0:50:33or just a stand for juvenile and selfish squall?
0:50:33 > 0:50:36Through petty theft, and fighting here amongst yourselves,
0:50:36 > 0:50:38you've lost the population's trust.
0:50:38 > 0:50:41I am not prone to certainty,
0:50:41 > 0:50:45but you have drawn that measure in my unsure heart.
0:50:47 > 0:50:49Unlike you all,
0:50:49 > 0:50:52I'm born and raised to rule.
0:50:53 > 0:50:56I do not choose,
0:50:56 > 0:50:58but like an Albion Oak,
0:50:58 > 0:51:00I'm sown in British soil,
0:51:00 > 0:51:03and grown, not for myself,
0:51:03 > 0:51:06but reared with single purpose meant.
0:51:06 > 0:51:09Whilst you have small constituency support which gusts and falls
0:51:09 > 0:51:15as does the wind, my cells and organs constitute this land...
0:51:16 > 0:51:19The speaker knows it is within my right,
0:51:19 > 0:51:22to sack my ministers and call a fresh election.

0:51:29 > 0:51:31My speaker, will you here confirm to them
0:51:31 > 0:51:35that what I do is well within my right
0:51:35 > 0:51:40and anointed power to, as King, demand?
0:51:43 > 0:51:48Your Majesty, if this is what you want,
0:51:48 > 0:51:51then this you can, as King, command.
0:51:51 > 0:51:54CLAMOUR OF VOICES
0:52:01 > 0:52:02HE SWITCHES TABLET OFF
0:52:32 > 0:52:33Where's Mummy gone?
0:52:34 > 0:52:36Fresh air.
0:52:57 > 0:52:59Cry havoc.
0:53:27 > 0:53:29DOORBELL BUZZES
0:53:29 > 0:53:31DOG BARKS
0:53:37 > 0:53:39Jess! Jess!
0:53:46 > 0:53:47Oh!
0:53:47 > 0:53:50Bob, I'm sorry to wake you. I-I know it's late.
0:53:50 > 0:53:52Did you got her text?
0:53:52 > 0:53:54Yeah, I've been trying to call.
0:53:54 > 0:53:55- Your Highness?- Yeah?
0:53:55 > 0:53:57Fuck off.
0:54:06 > 0:54:11CROWD NOISE AND HUBBUB
0:54:28 > 0:54:30I had to find you.
0:54:30 > 0:54:32You can't be out here on your own, you'll be lynched.
0:54:32 > 0:54:34I'm not on my own. Terry?
0:54:34 > 0:54:35Yes, sir.
0:54:35 > 0:54:37That's how I found you.
0:54:37 > 0:54:39- What do you want?- Jess, I...
0:54:39 > 0:54:41I want to say, I...I love you.
0:54:45 > 0:54:46What?
0:54:54 > 0:54:56Jess!
0:54:56 > 0:54:58They're just using this to get at my father.
0:54:58 > 0:55:01Well, I don't want anything to do with any of it. Or you. We're done.
0:55:01 > 0:55:02Yeah, but I know you like me.
0:55:02 > 0:55:05Mate, it doesn't matter. You're a prince.
0:55:06 > 0:55:08You always will be.
0:55:11 > 0:55:15Come to the palace. There's a way this can work.
0:55:15 > 0:55:16Please!
0:55:17 > 0:55:19Ohh!
0:55:27 > 0:55:29HELICOPTER WHIRS
0:55:37 > 0:55:39The crowds!
0:55:39 > 0:55:40You hear?
0:55:40 > 0:55:42How many guards are standing there outside?
0:55:42 > 0:55:43Please, have them tripled.
0:55:43 > 0:55:46Your Majesty, these men in front are there for tourist ceremony,
0:55:46 > 0:55:48not defence.
0:55:48 > 0:55:50If it's your safety that concerns...
0:55:50 > 0:55:55It's my preservation - and I know that will be served by what is seen.
0:55:55 > 0:55:57The truth is that my greatest enemies
0:55:57 > 0:56:01stand not within the crowd outside, but there, in Whitehall,
0:56:01 > 0:56:03waiting for the slightest glimpse of weakness.
0:56:05 > 0:56:09Sir Matthew, when timely pressed,
0:56:09 > 0:56:14you'll need to know precisely where, to whom, your loyalty lies.
0:56:16 > 0:56:17My loyalty?
0:56:17 > 0:56:21Your Majesty, when we join the forces we all swear
0:56:21 > 0:56:26that, come what may, we shall protect the King, and so we will.
0:56:31 > 0:56:34SHOUTING
0:57:02 > 0:57:04You're looking at me.
0:57:06 > 0:57:07Aren't you?
0:57:09 > 0:57:11All the time.
0:57:17 > 0:57:18You think you know me?
0:57:20 > 0:57:22Well, I know nothing.
0:57:24 > 0:57:26Just a plastic doll,
0:57:26 > 0:57:27designed, I'm told,
0:57:27 > 0:57:31to stand embodying a male-created bland and standard wife,
0:57:31 > 0:57:34whose only job is prettying the Prince,
0:57:34 > 0:57:38and then, if possible, get pregnant with the royal and noble bump,
0:57:38 > 0:57:40to there produce an heir...
0:57:41 > 0:57:43..and spare.
0:57:44 > 0:57:48But, being underestimated so
0:57:48 > 0:57:51does mean I can observe and plan and learn the way to rule.
0:57:51 > 0:57:54Of course I understand, Dad, but this goes way beyond...
0:57:54 > 0:57:58For I will be a queen unlike the ones before.
0:57:59 > 0:58:02My mother's dad was in the North a miner born,
0:58:02 > 0:58:04my father came from Leeds,
0:58:04 > 0:58:07both of them when young and inexperienced did risk their house
0:58:07 > 0:58:11and all they had to try and make a business of their own.
0:58:13 > 0:58:16But it's not just this stock I bring to these most distant regal realms,
0:58:16 > 0:58:19but something more important and precise.
0:58:21 > 0:58:23I have ambition for my husband, yes,
0:58:23 > 0:58:28and I hope my son will grow the finest King -
0:58:28 > 0:58:34but if I must put up with taunts, and make so public everything I am,
0:58:34 > 0:58:36then I demand things for myself.
0:58:38 > 0:58:43I ask no less than power to achieve my will
0:58:43 > 0:58:47in fair exchange for total service to the State.
0:58:47 > 0:58:51Yes, this is what, enthroned, that I will do.
0:58:51 > 0:58:55Not simply help my husband in his crown, but wear one of my own.
0:59:01 > 0:59:03How did it go?
0:59:03 > 0:59:06He simply said the strength of public voice in strong support
0:59:06 > 0:59:08did give him solace that he wasn't wrong.
0:59:08 > 0:59:11This is answer clear enough to me. He's stranded.
0:59:12 > 0:59:14So, what's your plan?
0:59:15 > 0:59:17Your Highness? The Prime Minister.
0:59:17 > 0:59:19The Prime Minister?
0:59:19 > 0:59:21- I didn't ask him here.- I know.
0:59:24 > 0:59:28Prime Minister. Please tell us latest news.
0:59:28 > 0:59:30Last night saw violence across the country.
0:59:30 > 0:59:32In Liverpool, in Oxford,
0:59:32 > 0:59:34Edinburgh, in Belfast too.
0:59:34 > 0:59:35But London is the worst.
0:59:35 > 0:59:38- Prime Minister, I've seen what's going on.- And Parliament?
0:59:38 > 0:59:41There is no Parliament. The speaker will not open the House
0:59:41 > 0:59:43for he fears it is illegal as things stand.
0:59:43 > 0:59:44So the members of Parliament do sit,
0:59:44 > 0:59:47just as 400 years ago, in Westminster Hall instead.
0:59:47 > 0:59:49Services are functioning well - schools, transport, health?
0:59:49 > 0:59:52No, the schools are closed, doctors are stretched.
0:59:52 > 0:59:54The bloodshed worsens every day we wait,
0:59:54 > 0:59:55and while we in the House attempt to calm,
0:59:55 > 0:59:58the King parks a tank in Buckingham Palace grounds.
0:59:58 > 1:00:00Prime Minister, in private, I, of course,
1:00:00 > 1:00:03whole-heartedly do give my support, but this is for Parliament to solve.
1:00:03 > 1:00:05William, they can't!
1:00:05 > 1:00:07Parliament is impotent.
1:00:07 > 1:00:11The time has come to go and halt this mess.
1:00:11 > 1:00:13Your Highness, you are the only way.
1:00:13 > 1:00:16- And what am I to do? - You know full well.- I can't.
1:00:16 > 1:00:21Then, sir, I think you will be Prince no more.
1:00:22 > 1:00:24For none that follow will be King again.
1:00:24 > 1:00:26George.
1:00:26 > 1:00:29- Daddy, Daddy, Daddy! - George, come back inside, please.
1:00:30 > 1:00:33I'm so sorry! He just ran away.
1:00:44 > 1:00:46Go back inside, OK? Mummy and I are talking.
1:01:07 > 1:01:10Prime Minister, go back to Number 10.
1:01:10 > 1:01:12You can leave this to me.
1:01:12 > 1:01:14I will bring an end to this unnecessary episode.
1:01:14 > 1:01:16I thank you, sir.
1:01:23 > 1:01:26For reasons you don't need to understand,
1:01:26 > 1:01:28a picture made of Jessica that is quite intimate
1:01:28 > 1:01:32has made its way into the pages of a national paper.
1:01:32 > 1:01:34There is attack towards her worse than I have seen
1:01:34 > 1:01:37against Kate, or me, or Mum, or you...
1:01:37 > 1:01:40and now she wants to leave me, cos of this.
1:01:58 > 1:02:03If I defend the freedom of the press, it's with the knowledge they
1:02:03 > 1:02:06will never live up to a higher standard.
1:02:06 > 1:02:09Naked girls, young boys will illustrate their pages,
1:02:09 > 1:02:11and they'll make hypocrisy an art,
1:02:11 > 1:02:13insisting that they stand chief moralist
1:02:13 > 1:02:16while making cash as base pornographer.
1:02:16 > 1:02:19I know this much.
1:02:19 > 1:02:21So, all that we can do...
1:02:22 > 1:02:25..is stand our ground.
1:02:26 > 1:02:29For, if they're free to print this dirt,
1:02:29 > 1:02:34then we have liberty, as well, to answer back.
1:02:34 > 1:02:36So now you have my word,
1:02:36 > 1:02:40you have the royal protection and respect.
1:02:40 > 1:02:43Whatever we can do to help, we will.
1:02:43 > 1:02:46You will be welcome in our family.
1:02:48 > 1:02:50Wait, no, that isn't that we want.
1:02:50 > 1:02:53Come, Harry, now it's done.
1:02:53 > 1:02:56I do not want her noble princess made.
1:02:56 > 1:02:59Instead descend myself into the mass,
1:02:59 > 1:03:02cast off the princely burden of my birth
1:03:02 > 1:03:07and for my life be Harry, man and friend,
1:03:07 > 1:03:10with job, and house
1:03:10 > 1:03:12and car and maybe wife.
1:03:12 > 1:03:14It isn't possible.
1:03:14 > 1:03:17We make no fuss 'cept that I've moved, found work.
1:03:17 > 1:03:19I'll have no role official and not prince,
1:03:19 > 1:03:22I'll live a life of normalcy, within this country,
1:03:22 > 1:03:27rather than atop the mound, unearned and with a target on my back.
1:03:27 > 1:03:29You would not be a prince?!
1:03:29 > 1:03:34I'd be...your son,
1:03:34 > 1:03:38but, no - my love for Jessica comes first.
1:03:38 > 1:03:39Because like you,
1:03:39 > 1:03:43I don't believe that born a prince must mean I sacrifice my soul.
1:03:50 > 1:03:53Dissimilarity, it seems, does make a match.
1:03:53 > 1:03:57So, Harry...
1:03:58 > 1:04:00..yes.
1:04:01 > 1:04:04You may do as you wish.
1:04:04 > 1:04:07Sir, whatever you may do,
1:04:07 > 1:04:11this story is distraction when the Crown itself is in dispute.
1:04:11 > 1:04:13The people need to hear from you.
1:04:13 > 1:04:16As we discussed, despite your reservations,
1:04:16 > 1:04:18you must now go and meet the press.
1:04:18 > 1:04:20Excuse me.
1:04:23 > 1:04:24OK?
1:04:28 > 1:04:29OK.
1:04:30 > 1:04:32DOOR CLOSES
1:04:47 > 1:04:50William! I didn't know you would be here.
1:04:50 > 1:04:52We'll always serve the interests of the Crown.
1:04:52 > 1:04:55As family, we should be seen as one.
1:04:55 > 1:04:57James says it's what they will expect of us.
1:04:57 > 1:04:59It was James persuaded you to come?
1:04:59 > 1:05:01It was in conversation, yes.
1:05:01 > 1:05:03I don't know how to thank you, James.
1:05:03 > 1:05:06It will be now with pride and strength of clan
1:05:06 > 1:05:08I stand my ground and state my case.
1:05:08 > 1:05:10As always, James, you've thought of everything.
1:05:10 > 1:05:13The picture here like this is now complete.
1:05:13 > 1:05:16The family will be my backdrop and the news will say,
1:05:16 > 1:05:20the country's safe, and clear united.
1:05:22 > 1:05:24Ah, no photos yet, please. Good morning.
1:05:24 > 1:05:26As you know, we've only got about 20 minutes.
1:05:26 > 1:05:29So, erm, His Highness will say a few words.
1:05:29 > 1:05:31Then we can do some set-ups afterwards. Thank you.
1:05:35 > 1:05:37Good afternoon.
1:05:39 > 1:05:41Gosh, there's quite a few of you -
1:05:41 > 1:05:43but thank you all for coming here today.
1:05:43 > 1:05:45My wife and I have been so shocked
1:05:45 > 1:05:47by scenes unfolding here and overseas.
1:05:47 > 1:05:50My father has, through noble conscience said,
1:05:50 > 1:05:52as is his right, he will withhold assent -
1:05:52 > 1:05:57and furthermore, as is legal, too, he has dismissed elected government.
1:05:57 > 1:05:59Of course, this has resulted in disquiet.
1:05:59 > 1:06:01Not just in homes
1:06:01 > 1:06:03and streets, or in the House,
1:06:03 > 1:06:05but in our family, too.
1:06:07 > 1:06:09My wife and I respect my father's choices,
1:06:09 > 1:06:12but do wish this could have been avoided,
1:06:12 > 1:06:17and so, today, I do announce that I, as Prince Of Wales,
1:06:17 > 1:06:24from now will try to mediate between the King and the House of Commons.
1:06:24 > 1:06:26I am convinced there is a way to move on this,
1:06:26 > 1:06:29without the need for further violence,
1:06:29 > 1:06:31and respecting both democracy
1:06:31 > 1:06:36and the ancient British power of anointed King.
1:06:38 > 1:06:41I have my father's blessing in this role.
1:06:41 > 1:06:44He is as keen as I am to see an end
1:06:44 > 1:06:47to this destructive and divisive time.
1:06:47 > 1:06:50I'm also lucky to have Catherine, too.
1:06:50 > 1:06:53For all of this was actually her idea.
1:06:53 > 1:06:56Turns out she's cleverer than all of us. She'll sort us out.
1:07:02 > 1:07:04CAMERAS CLICK AND PRESS SHOUT
1:07:12 > 1:07:14Your Majesty, sir, I want to explain.
1:07:14 > 1:07:16You knew what William would say to them?!
1:07:17 > 1:07:19Indeed. I made it possible for him to speak.
1:07:19 > 1:07:22You're surely not intending still to work for me,
1:07:22 > 1:07:24not after treachery like this?
1:07:24 > 1:07:26Your son has offered me employment.
1:07:32 > 1:07:37I hope you fail in everything you do!
1:07:42 > 1:07:44Prime Minister.
1:07:44 > 1:07:46SHOUTING AND JEERING
1:07:48 > 1:07:50Unjust.
1:07:53 > 1:07:55Unkind.
1:07:56 > 1:08:01Unruly mob! But wait. What's this?
1:08:03 > 1:08:07There's now no tank, there's now no men!
1:08:09 > 1:08:11Some loyalty!
1:08:11 > 1:08:16Roberts! Roberts!
1:08:27 > 1:08:31William, where's Roberts gone?
1:08:31 > 1:08:34I said to take an hour off.
1:08:34 > 1:08:35You said?
1:08:35 > 1:08:37That's right, Your Majesty.
1:08:37 > 1:08:40"Your Majesty"? But William, it's me.
1:08:40 > 1:08:44Despite the horrid things you've done, it's me.
1:08:44 > 1:08:47So call me Dad, or Father, if you like, but not Your Majesty,
1:08:47 > 1:08:49like all the rest.
1:08:49 > 1:08:51I call you that for that is what you are. Before my father,
1:08:51 > 1:08:55long before all else you are the King, and that's to whom I speak.
1:08:55 > 1:08:57But William, come look at this, a book...
1:08:57 > 1:08:59You think too much on books and history.
1:08:59 > 1:09:02But what is power held if never used?
1:09:02 > 1:09:05Our duty's not to simply sit indoors and hope things get resolved,
1:09:05 > 1:09:07but to engage all parties and attempt to find a way...
1:09:07 > 1:09:10"Engage all parties"?! King's no such duty.
1:09:10 > 1:09:12Duty royal. Shared amongst us all.
1:09:12 > 1:09:14I do not request your counsel!
1:09:14 > 1:09:18Instead it is support, expected, and support that you must give.
1:09:18 > 1:09:21You should apologise for such betrayal!
1:09:23 > 1:09:26But I'll put it down to youth, and nerves.
1:09:26 > 1:09:28Now help me and go fetch good Roberts here.
1:09:28 > 1:09:30The tank was still remiss,
1:09:30 > 1:09:34and all those guards Sir Matthew kindly put in place have gone.
1:09:34 > 1:09:35I know.
1:09:38 > 1:09:40You know?
1:09:41 > 1:09:43What do you mean, you know?
1:09:43 > 1:09:46Sir Matthew came to Kensington. We spoke.
1:09:47 > 1:09:49I said with the unrest and violence
1:09:49 > 1:09:52that has spread across the country we should not be stoking it
1:09:52 > 1:09:54with these provocative militaristic shows.
1:09:54 > 1:09:56And what said he?
1:09:56 > 1:09:57That it was not a show,
1:09:57 > 1:09:59and that he had in consultation here with you agreed
1:09:59 > 1:10:01it was important that the palace is defended
1:10:01 > 1:10:02from attacks within the crowd.
1:10:02 > 1:10:04Exactly, you should not have questioned it!
1:10:04 > 1:10:07Having heard his answer I went on that in an hour
1:10:07 > 1:10:11I'll drive straight down The Mall and enter through the guarded gates.
1:10:11 > 1:10:14I then intend to go around the yard and if, I said, there is a tank,
1:10:14 > 1:10:17I'll ask the men in blue that they do move it off
1:10:17 > 1:10:18because it is a danger
1:10:18 > 1:10:22having such a deadly weapon aimed towards the crowd.
1:10:27 > 1:10:33And when as promised I drove down The Mall, police on either side,
1:10:33 > 1:10:36expecting that the crowd would see me and attack the car,
1:10:36 > 1:10:43instead they saw who steered and parted there to let us through.
1:10:43 > 1:10:49And as we went between the mob, a silence briefly fell upon them all.
1:10:50 > 1:10:53It was most strange.
1:10:53 > 1:10:57They stopped and watched us go...
1:11:03 > 1:11:05..and as the gates did close behind us,
1:11:05 > 1:11:08one girl called out,
1:11:08 > 1:11:10"You tell him, Will"
1:11:12 > 1:11:14And so I must.
1:11:15 > 1:11:20Must tell me...what?
1:11:20 > 1:11:22You can't go back from your decision now.
1:11:22 > 1:11:25Agreed, retreating now would be the end.
1:11:25 > 1:11:26And yet you can't progress,
1:11:26 > 1:11:29- the Parliament will never hold elections as you wish.- We'll see!
1:11:29 > 1:11:31So I propose on coronation day,
1:11:31 > 1:11:34we have two thrones upon the dais placed, and sat on cushions
1:11:34 > 1:11:37next to them are two crowns awaiting royal heads to rest.
1:11:37 > 1:11:39Two thrones, two crowns?
1:11:39 > 1:11:43It is not possible for Britain and the Commonwealth to have,
1:11:43 > 1:11:46as you suggest, two Kings in tandem rule.
1:11:46 > 1:11:49No, not two Kings. A King and Queen.
1:11:49 > 1:11:51Oh, you mean Camilla?
1:11:51 > 1:11:53Oh, oft we have discussed...
1:11:53 > 1:11:55Camilla, no.
1:11:58 > 1:12:00Then what DO you intend?
1:12:02 > 1:12:04Cos if it's what I think
1:12:04 > 1:12:07then you must speak the words of treachery yourself
1:12:07 > 1:12:11and shank your father with a full and clear betrayal.
1:12:11 > 1:12:14I mean myself and Kate are crowned instead.
1:12:16 > 1:12:19And what of me?
1:12:19 > 1:12:24I simply stand aside?
1:12:24 > 1:12:28You offer...abdication
1:12:28 > 1:12:32and explain since taking on the role,
1:12:32 > 1:12:34you've felt your age.
1:12:35 > 1:12:38There's something in your face I recognise.
1:12:41 > 1:12:43It was Diana...
1:12:43 > 1:12:47where I saw it last, and I had hoped that it had died with her.
1:12:47 > 1:12:50But here it is, in you, ambition lurks!
1:12:50 > 1:12:52I'm proud of that ambition,
1:12:52 > 1:12:54I'm proud of her...
1:12:54 > 1:12:57who, plucked so young, before she knew the world,
1:12:57 > 1:13:02and thrust into a den of lions keen for meat, was given no protection.
1:13:02 > 1:13:07You cast my mum aside, discarded and destroyed her by repute.
1:13:07 > 1:13:08No, I loved your mother at the time
1:13:08 > 1:13:11and did my very best to make sure you weren't harmed!
1:13:11 > 1:13:14And that will be your tombstone - "I did my best. At least I tried."
1:13:14 > 1:13:16That's a plea for effort rather than effect -
1:13:16 > 1:13:20and that is you as husband, you as son, as father, too,
1:13:20 > 1:13:21and now as King.
1:13:21 > 1:13:23But all our sympathy is withered up and dry.
1:13:23 > 1:13:25This is a job.
1:13:25 > 1:13:28You should've got it right and you did not.
1:13:28 > 1:13:30Be careful what you say.
1:13:32 > 1:13:34You've always had my total love.
1:13:36 > 1:13:39I will not abdicate!
1:13:41 > 1:13:44I will not abdicate!
1:13:44 > 1:13:46Ungrateful boy!
1:13:46 > 1:13:49I'll never give the Crown away. For me it's duty and my calling,
1:13:49 > 1:13:50things to do!
1:13:50 > 1:13:55I know, don't ask me how,
1:13:55 > 1:14:01that I will be the greatest king of all.
1:14:02 > 1:14:03The greatest king?!
1:14:06 > 1:14:07And so you shall.
1:14:10 > 1:14:12For when they write the history books about this
1:14:12 > 1:14:14they will tell stories crisis-like
1:14:14 > 1:14:16about the stormy days after the Queen had died
1:14:16 > 1:14:18and how for weeks you contemplated hard
1:14:18 > 1:14:20upon the right and proper thing to do,
1:14:20 > 1:14:23and, in the end, decided for the good of all your people
1:14:23 > 1:14:27and their long-term happiness you would selflessly stand aside
1:14:27 > 1:14:30and pass it on, to younger hands,
1:14:30 > 1:14:34more popular and with more time to reign.
1:14:34 > 1:14:39I will be King as ruler, not as doormat stepped across.
1:14:40 > 1:14:41No, go!
1:14:41 > 1:14:43I don't want to see you here!
1:14:45 > 1:14:46Your Majesty...
1:14:52 > 1:14:57..this is a sorry day, but if you cannot sign the law
1:14:57 > 1:15:00you must make way for one who can.
1:15:00 > 1:15:03I have brought here a document to state official abdication,
1:15:03 > 1:15:08so we can achieve a common goal - stability.
1:15:08 > 1:15:10Who made this thing?
1:15:10 > 1:15:11The civil service drew it up today.
1:15:11 > 1:15:14And printed out in haste - there are mistakes in spelling!
1:15:14 > 1:15:15Will you sign?
1:15:18 > 1:15:20I will not!
1:15:27 > 1:15:29What's that document you're holding there?
1:15:32 > 1:15:35You must do nothing till we have consulted with the experts
1:15:35 > 1:15:38on the constitution.
1:15:38 > 1:15:41I thought it Harry that was wild,
1:15:41 > 1:15:46but you have now by far surpassed his worst excess.
1:15:46 > 1:15:49A vile and nasty child.
1:15:50 > 1:15:55I realise you and Catherine are the king and queen of column inches
1:15:55 > 1:15:58but you're just a duke and duchess here!
1:15:58 > 1:16:02The King is King! He will not sign.
1:16:02 > 1:16:06Your thin opinion of us demonstrates how out of touch you are,
1:16:06 > 1:16:07and jealous, too.
1:16:07 > 1:16:10Our looks don't make us cruel, our youth is not an ignorance,
1:16:10 > 1:16:13and detail in the way we dress should not be thought as vanity,
1:16:13 > 1:16:16but as part of the substance only we provide.
1:16:16 > 1:16:19Our column inches are the greatest influence we possess.
1:16:25 > 1:16:30Majesty, sign - and bring an end to all this.
1:16:30 > 1:16:32DOOR OPENS
1:16:37 > 1:16:41My son, your loyalty!
1:16:47 > 1:16:48The people turn to William.
1:16:53 > 1:16:55This is the only way.
1:16:55 > 1:16:57I am convinced.
1:16:57 > 1:16:59Harry.
1:17:02 > 1:17:07My boys. My little boys.
1:17:07 > 1:17:09CHARLES SNIFFLES
1:17:09 > 1:17:11Of course you're scared.
1:17:11 > 1:17:15But I know what I do, so sit, let's talk.
1:17:15 > 1:17:18We'll sit and be your sons.
1:17:20 > 1:17:22But first you abdicate.
1:17:22 > 1:17:23And if I don't...
1:17:23 > 1:17:28Then we will leave. Yes, us, and Kate, the children. Family all.
1:17:28 > 1:17:30You will not see us till you change your mind.
1:17:30 > 1:17:32I will not see my sons?
1:17:38 > 1:17:40Or grandchildren, too?
1:17:44 > 1:17:46I cannot live alone.
1:17:46 > 1:17:50You're not alone. And even if you were,
1:17:50 > 1:17:55well, better that than father-servant to your shallow sons.
1:18:06 > 1:18:10I cannot live alone.
1:18:39 > 1:18:41HE CRIES
1:19:02 > 1:19:07It's done. The King is at an end.
1:19:11 > 1:19:18I will retreat to bed, and when I wake to a new dawn,
1:19:18 > 1:19:21I'll simply be an old forgotten gardener,
1:19:21 > 1:19:27who potters round and talks to plants and chuckles to himself.
1:19:29 > 1:19:35Whilst far away the King and Queen do rule
1:19:35 > 1:19:39over a golden age of monarchy
1:19:39 > 1:19:44that bothers no-one, does no good,
1:19:44 > 1:19:48and is a pretty, plastic picture
1:19:48 > 1:19:51with no meaning!
1:21:37 > 1:21:40Sorry, ma'am, your name doesn't appear on the list.
1:21:40 > 1:21:41What?
1:21:41 > 1:21:43Miss Jessica...
1:21:46 > 1:21:47Thank you.
1:21:47 > 1:21:49Why do you seem so lost?
1:21:49 > 1:21:52The seating plan, my name does not appear.
1:21:52 > 1:21:55You're sure the Prince did make his invitation known?
1:21:55 > 1:21:58Perhaps it would be best, to find out from the man himself.
1:21:58 > 1:22:02Oh, here he comes, so handsome in his uniform.
1:22:02 > 1:22:06Here's Jessica, who seems omitted from the seating plan.
1:22:06 > 1:22:09Perhaps you'll know a little more about this than I.
1:22:12 > 1:22:14Are you all right?
1:22:19 > 1:22:21You'll not attend today.
1:22:22 > 1:22:25As William And Kate are crowned, you'll have to watch outside.
1:22:25 > 1:22:28Outside? But why?
1:22:30 > 1:22:31Harry?
1:22:33 > 1:22:38My brother, talking with his wife, and close advisors,
1:22:38 > 1:22:40feels it would be best you not attend.
1:22:40 > 1:22:42You are too big a risk to what he needs - stability.
1:22:42 > 1:22:44But that's not...
1:22:44 > 1:22:45And furthermore...
1:22:46 > 1:22:49..he's asked me personally if I would stop all contact with you
1:22:49 > 1:22:51and resume the way I was before,
1:22:51 > 1:22:54a singleton, amusing, mostly clownish and unthreatening.
1:22:54 > 1:22:56I hope you quickly told him where to go.
1:22:56 > 1:22:58He's now the King.
1:22:58 > 1:23:00So King can tell you who to love and what to feel?
1:23:00 > 1:23:03- The King is dictator of your heart? - My heart was made by King.
1:23:05 > 1:23:08If I betray allegiance, then the little that I am is gone.
1:23:08 > 1:23:12If you loved me you would fight this.
1:23:12 > 1:23:14Or if I have to go, you'd come with me.
1:23:14 > 1:23:16I want to.
1:23:21 > 1:23:22Starting soon.
