Charles Phillips Arthur George was only

three when he became heir to his

mother's throne six years later at the

age of nine he became the Prince of

Wales the traditional title remain and

with it came an array of

responsibilities and roles like

introducing his mother his classmates at

school the theme that showed the world

the formality that existed within the

royal family

decades later Charles was reunited with

a former classmate and a very different

circumstances it started as a routine

royal visit Prince Charles meeting the

homeless that is until the prince took

his seat next to Clive Harold wearing a

red star - really

do you realize we were at school

together

I've asked royal astonishment followed

by laughter a print and a pauper

chatting about their old school dance

the idea that we would kneel for tickle

years later on the on the streets and

he'd be obviously whereas now it was it

was strange at London tube stations

Clive sells copies of the big issue

homeless but still it's humour your

participant after the parting gift

Charles's Education was revolutionary

for the world comes until he came along

royal children were educated at home

away from prying eyes and fellow pupils

but the Queen and Prince Philip wanted

Charles to be a very different kind of

king so they sent him to public school

from the start

Charles was expected to engage with his

future subjects and they with him

especially when it came to sport his

royal highness soon found that his

classmates were not afraid to take him

on five years later they sent him to

boarding schools in Scotland the far cry

from Buckingham Palace

it's the same school his father went to

a harsh and uncompromising place father

who apparently regarded him of the wimps

insisted on sending him to the tough

regime accordance then where he was

deeply unhappy and wrote that his life

was literal house the hell included

bullying by older boys and in the brunt

end to his childhood when he was 18 they

sent him even further away to a spray

here and the pimba top schools in

Melbourne

even on the other side of the world

Charles was constantly in the limelight

as the press followed him relentlessly

live in Australia was even tougher than

Scotland the child loved it

relishing in seventy mile cross-country

hikes

years later his aunt corene was quoted

as saying I went out with a boy and came

back with a man-child his next stop was

much closer to home

Cambridge University as he approached

his 21st birthday the prints came of age

as his mother formally invested him as

the Prince of Wales next he became a

sporting hero on the polo field a

pursuit he had fallen in love with as a

child it began to define him as a man

his daredevil Ray on the field earned

him the nickname action but it came at a

price

the Prince of Wales has a reputation for

playing polo hard why he once gained an

international handicap putting him among

the world's best it's been at a cost

the continual spills on the field have

resulted in a nagging bad condition at

times his frustration with the

conditions been apparent extremely

arrived at the Bakula faddle so soon

doctors already told him that if he

carries on bashing his back for a year

he faces possible surgery and Sony three

weeks since our warning was made by one

of Britain's top orthopedic surgeon the

Princeton staff say he's pulling back

from the sport because he doesn't want

an injury to disrupt his official duties

official duties involved joining the

Navy

following the royal traditions of a

military career his status made him an

officer he proved his worth

by serving on guided missile destroyers

and a mine hunt he also qualified as

pilot I think it is when a useful

extendibility indiscipline I in

responsibility the finesse

when Charles led the Navy like everyone

else he was given 7,000 pounds severance

pays but he didn't spend it on himself a

million and a half people were out of

work at the time Charles used his

windfall to set up the princess trust

its aim is to help the disadvantaged and

to provide money for young entrepreneurs

its early years coincided with a

continuing lack of jobs and violence on

the streets the single greatest problem

has to be unemployment we are faced with

large numbers of unemployed youngsters

who have absolutely nothing at all to do

and the chance of getting a job so the

situation is getting worse Charles tried

to stop the situation from getting worse

by investing money in business startup

schemes run by young people with no

obvious track record what we were always

trying to do what I again was trying to

do was to develop hidden talent amongst

a large number I think of young people

all over the country

however disadvantaged or alienness they

may be I had my self-confidence

developed when I was in here and it does

enable you to face a lot more of the

challenges of life to the trust the

challenges of life involves pop and rock

and roll a child harnessed show business

to raise money all this and being a

future king maybe one print affection an

unmarried Edward throne is always in

demand and child played the role to

perfection earning himself another title

the world's most eligible bachelor women

flocked to him

and the tabloids the field first there

was Lucia's Santacruz a fellow student

at Cambridge she was seen as his first

proper girlfriend the romance survived

only a few months many has the next one

Lady Jane Wellesley would be the prime

candidate the marriage to the prince

with her impeccable pedigree Sheen was a

great great great granddaughter of the

first Duke of Wellington however she is

said to her turned down the idea of

marriage blaming the media that its

intense scrutiny but while Charles

played the field his family became

concerned about the succession they

needed another heir who would succeed

him as king one day he needed to settle

down

[Music]

you

[Music]

in 1977 Prince Charles had a flame with

22 year old lady saris Edelson daughter

of the Apes Earl of Spencer

it ended in acrimony after she leaked

details of their relationship to the

press Charles sought solace in the arms

of her younger sister Lady Diana Spencer

the 13 years longer but it quickly

became clear that she was the one

control just give us a hundred selfie so

we wouldn't have it worked too long it

wasn't long before it turned into an

engagement love with in the end everyone

a chance and I suppose in love

[Music]

living in love obviously very

interpretive obviously needs two very

happy people from us the merciless and

specifically when the wedding vows came

five months later Charles is whatever in

love means remark seemed to be forgotten

I pronounce that they be man and wife

together the heir to the throne had

settled down and Britain had a future

Queen also everyone thought the ceremony

was shown around the world and watched

by 750 million people but behind the

fairytale facade layer secret both

Charles and his bride had separately

brought according off the ceremony

because each knew the relationship was

deeply flawed this is another high-risk

strategy by the Prince an authorized

biography over which he had no editorial

control revealing that his belt falls

into proposed by his fans had been

bullied and lost the boy the young Diana

Spencer would be compromised

the Duke form unless this child made up

his mind feeling

ill-used was impotent he chose to marry

at the time no one else had a clue

because in public they appeared the

perfect couple

diana was good at court in the media and

quickly became a sensation

she appeared accessible in ways her

husband could never be and then along

came the choice

a shared bond but not enough to hold a

marriage together images are the less

than happy Diana started to appear many

speculated that the prince had reignited

a relationship with his former lover

Camilla parker-bowles the pair have

conducted a mostly secret relationship

for a quarter of a century

Charles's extramarital exploits allow

the tabloids to renew their attack as we

build on news at 10:00 last night the

admission that we've not been faithful

to Princess Diana and the question is

being asked after this should the bridge

still become King it's up to us whether

we are prepared to accept that he is

fallible like the rest of us or whether

we're going to cling to some kind of old

fashioned illusion of the monarchy is

somehow above all sin temples were

already running high following what's

worth thought to be an assassination

attempt in Australia on the country's

most cherished celebration Australia day

of two shots rang out

the personal detective tobo the prince

out of harm's way trick the attacker and

then shepherded child-safety

he runs fast from the front of the crowd

firing a starting pistol and got within

a few feet of the prince and the

confusion in kind of a huge crowd it

seemed for a few terrible moments for

those of us present that a serious

attempt had been made on the princes

life ok back the attacker was david kang

a 23 year old university student we'd

already written to the prince protesting

about the condition of Cambodian both

people some 200 of whom are held here

David Kang was sentenced to 500 hours of

community service for threatening

unlawful violence he went on to become a

barrister specializing in criminal law

back in the UK the press were revealing

for the first time the Charles and Diana

were to separate and divorce when Diana

died in Paris the heir to the throne was

free to have an open relationship with

Camilla parker-bowles

and then marry

the prints leading Camilla parker-bowles

out from the shadow dom dom is former

lover and mistress and his wife and the

new duchess of corner

Charles's divorce and remarriage caused

unrest and debate within the Church of

England and throughout Britain as a

whole as future king he would become the

symbolic head of the Protestant Church

with the title defender of the faith

but before Marylin kamila Charles

decreed that when he became king he

would change his title to defender of

faith rather than defender of decent a

subtle but important difference in

emphasis which recognized the changing

face of multicultural Britain Prince

Charles is said to want an end to a

tradition dating back to the time of

King Henry the eighth in the 16th

century referring to the fact that the

monarch is traditionally head of the

Protestant established church the prince

is quoted as saying I happen to believe

that the Catholic subjects are as

important not to mention the Islamic and

Hindu whatever his motives Prince

Charles's decision is already being

welcomed by the leaders of other faiths

they say it will encourage religious

tolerance Prince Charles is one of the

richest men in the world if money comes

from a number of sources the bulk from

the Duchy of Cornwall estates which he

inherited after his mother became Queen

despite his great wealth Prince Charles

has been ruled by social conscience and

his Prince's Trust has earned him the

highest praise I would like to take this

opportunity to say to you Charles how

proud I am of everything you have

accomplished with the trust and the way

you personally have inspired this

organisation but not everything he has

done for then accolades when he revealed

he talked to his plants at his High

Grove home it brought ridicule

and his numerous interventions in

political matters have been

controversial the heir to the throne

like the Queen is supposed to be above

the rough-and-tumble of British politics

but it's now clear that he spent half a

century behind the scenes trying to

influence some lobby politicians about

the things he cares about

he has unique privileges in terms of

secrecy around notice and he's not

covered by a Freedom of Information so

it raises a whole host of questions of

conflict of interest

Charles's behind-the-scenes interests

where as first into the spotlight when

it emerged he got involved in the

transfer of sovereignty from Hong Kong

to China he called Chinese government

officials appalling old waxworks the

revelations came from his personal

Diaries leaked to an English newspaper

which resulted in a massive court case

the judge agreed with his lawyers that

this was a breach of his copyright and

confidentiality the newspaper seeking

lead to challenge to these judgments in

the court of appeal we believe our

report and this legal action both raise

very serious questions about the

constitutional role of the aerotrain and

the freedom of the press

it cannot be illegitimate for the prince

came the right to engage in political

controversy and at the same time deny

the public the whites know that he is

doing things Prince Charles is lobbying

of government ministers was rarely done

face to face he let them know what he

thought by sending memos with

handwritten notes they became known as

the spider memos because of his

handwriting

his interventions earned him the

nickname the meddling Prince call it

taking a royal interest or plain

meddling whatever your view in his many

letters the Prince expressed strong

opinions on a wide variety of subjects

that are clearly close to his heart

the princes letters are known as the

black spider memos a reference to the

handwriting the ministers are said to

have complain about being

guarded by them and he hasn't stopped at

listen also speaking out in public on

everything from political correctness to

BSE BSE or mad cow disease as it was

more commonly called put the prints

firmly at war with the powers that be we

see the consequences of treating animals

like machines seeking ever greater

efficiency and even experimenting

catastrophic Lee as we now know with

totally inappropriate alternative fuels

charles's critics believed that by

dipping his toe in political waters he's

not just medaled he's tried to exert

influence in this country put up with

the monarchy support the monarchy

because they think it's beyond politics

outside of politics and doesn't get

involved if these letters proved

actually false that may mean quite

suitable damage to the monarchy being

beyond politics is something Charles's

mother the Queen has upheld throughout

her reign he has not been so careful but

royal observers say he will have to tell

a more diplomatic line and he eventually

succeeds when he becomes king he must be

scrupulously neutral just like Queen

Elizabeth is and he will have to change

his behavior

Prince Charles has been scrutinized

since the day he was born

despite this he's managed to keep many

things quiet from his clandestine affair

with a woman who is now his wife to his

memos and letters to ministers his

mother is not only Britain's

longest-serving Queen she is also by far

the most popular whether he can emulate

that and her saunas crowned only time

will tell
