00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:14,720
Based on a true story.

WINDSOR CASTLE, 29 MAY 1959

6
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:47,080
[Queen Elizabeth]
Garter and Black rod.

7
00:00:47,160 --> 00:00:49,480
The summoned companion elect.

8
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:51,480
My lords and ladies,
please be seated.

9
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,400
His Majesty, King Olav
the Fifth of Norway.

10
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,000
To the honour of God omnipotent,

11
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,640
and in memorial of the
blessed martyr Saint George,

12
00:01:27,960 --> 00:01:29,880
tie above thy leg…

13
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,680
this most noble garter.

14
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:38,680
Wear it as the symbol of
the most illustrious order,

15
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,080
never to be forgotten
or laid aside.

16
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,400
Wear this ribbon,

17
00:01:48,479 --> 00:01:51,440
adorned with the image
of the blessed martyr

18
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,680
and soldier of
Christ, Saint George.

19
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,200
By whose imitation

20
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:04,600
it is provoked that
thou mayst so overpass

21
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:09,160
both prosperous and
adverse encounters.

22
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:16,200
That having vanquished stoutly
thy enemies both of body and soul,

23
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:22,320
thou mayest not only
reverse this combat,

24
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:27,280
but be crowned with the
palm of eternal victory.

25
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:30,960
Congratulations.

26
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,200
I wish George had been
here for this day.

27
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,560
He would have loved to
perform the investiture

28
00:02:43,640 --> 00:02:45,760
and knight his dear cousin.

29
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,200
Yes, it would have been a
proud moment for both of us.

30
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,280
And for Märtha, of course.

31
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,120
We both lost our
spouses too early.

32
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,160
How's everything in Norway?

33
00:03:02,920 --> 00:03:08,240
Well, it is demanding to succeed
a king that was so loved.

34
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:13,520
But my close family ties to this
house are of great value for me…

35
00:03:13,640 --> 00:03:16,160
- in my new role.
- I can imagine.

36
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:17,280
[King Olav giggles]

37
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,200
Elizabeth is still so young.

38
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:22,440
[woman] Your Grace.

39
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,920
- Remember how shy she was?
- [chuckles] Yes, it runs in the family.

40
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,880
- [chuckles] She has grown into her role.
- Mm-hmm.

41
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,640
How is Harald?

42
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,320
Uh, finishing off the required
military training as an heir apparent.

43
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,480
You know what I'm talking about.

44
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,120
I know what you
are talking about,

45
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,520
and I have invited King
Paul and Queen Frederica

46
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:51,720
along with Princess Sofia
and Irene to Oslo in August.

47
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,280
- Sofia is Harald's age, isn't she?
- She is.

48
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,800
- A perfect union.
- [chuckles]

49
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:06,880
So. What did you think about the ceremony?
It's not exactly of our time, is it?

50
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:11,640
Well, I like that we still celebrate
it, very much the way King Edward did.

51
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,720
In thirteen-forty-eight.

52
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,200
Our family represents
something unchanging.

53
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,640
That is exactly how I see it.

54
00:04:19,959 --> 00:04:21,200
The feather hats could go.

55
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,160
- Absolutely not.
- The Queen has spoken.

56
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,720

00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,840

[pencil friction on paper]

62
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,080
Time's up, please
hand in your paper.

63
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,200
- Have a nice summer, guys.
- Have a nice summer.

64
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,360
[people chattering]

65
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,880
- [man] Anyone for a beer?
- [man] Yeah, I'm in!

66
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:30,800

[mellow music continues]

71
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:14,200
It is expected that you give
this speech, Your Royal Highness.

72
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:19,880
The event will last for two hours. We
will return to the castle at 4.45 p.m.

73
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,640
Has the King been notified that I
won't be having dinner at home tonight?

74
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:28,200
Yes. Would you like
a ride to Stenersen?

75
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:30,480
No, thank you.

76
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:39,159
[microphone screeching]

77
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:50,360
[indistinct chatter]

78
00:07:55,520 --> 00:08:01,480
County governor. Mr
Mayor. Dear guests.

79
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,280
It is an honour for
me to be here today.

80
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:08,520
[woman] Speak up!

81
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,000
- A significant effort…
- [microphone screeching]

82
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,280
has been put into this event.

83
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:21,000
And I am convinced that people will
look back on this day with pride.

84
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,440
[upbeat music]

85
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,600
Sonja! Ilmi is here.

86
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,480
- She says you are invited to a party?
- I'll stay at home.

87
00:08:48,560 --> 00:08:52,160
- [Dagny] But why?
- I will call Johan and say I am not going.

88
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,360
[lawnmower rattling]

89
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:00,640
It's been three months.

90
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:04,920
Yes, I know.

91
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,240
It doesn't feel right
to go to a party.

92
00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:15,800
Dad wouldn't want you to stop seeing
your friends, and neither would I.

93
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:18,160
[sighs]

94
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,840
- The lawn needs mowing.
- Do go and have a nice time.

95
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:26,680
The lawn will be here when you
get back. You can mow it tomorrow.

96
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,240
Come and say hello to Ilmi.

97
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:44,800
[Sonja exhales]

98
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:46,520
- Hello.
- Hi.

99
00:09:47,560 --> 00:09:51,840
- Sonja doesn't know if she wants to go.
- You need a little cheering up.

100
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,680
So many nice people are coming,

101
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,960
and Johan has been
preparing this for days.

102
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:03,880
- So what will you do?
- Be a mother and grandmother.

103
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:05,560
Haakon and the kids are coming.

104
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,080
It's Saturday, it's six o'clock,

105
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:12,720
and now Ilmi and I will have

106
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,800
"The Pharmacist's
Secret" while you change.

107
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:17,840
Yes, please.

108
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:32,200
["Det Som Skjer, Det Skjer (Whatever Will
Be, Will Be/Que Sera, Sera)" playing]

109
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,600
One, two, three…

110
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,240
[music continues]

111
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,840
- Hello.
- [Ilmi] Hi, there!

112
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,160
Be seated when you
find your place card.

113
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,760
Mariann, if you take responsibility
for Bernhard… his eyesight.

114
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,640
[upbeat orchestra music]

115
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,240
[indistinct chatter]

116
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:28,360
This is new.

117
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,000
It's incomprehensible.

118
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:36,400
[Sonja] Hmm.

119
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,040
[Sonja] I see some women.

120
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,080
I probably wouldn't
have guessed that.

121
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,080
Well the painting needs to
be looked at a little longer…

122
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,240
Hello, I didn't know it was you.

123
00:11:52,680 --> 00:11:53,960
[chuckles]

124
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:58,480
- Sonja Haraldsen.
- Harald. [chuckles]

125
00:11:58,560 --> 00:12:00,600
That's all I have.

126
00:12:01,560 --> 00:12:02,720
Mmm.

127
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,000
- Well…
- Yes.

128
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,960
[indistinct chatter]

129
00:12:15,560 --> 00:12:16,960
- Yes.
- Ah.

130
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,440
Thank you.

131
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,360
OK, now we can eat. Enjoy.

132
00:12:56,680 --> 00:12:59,080
Have you known Johan
for a long time?

133
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,920
- Since prep school.
- Mmm.

134
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:10,240
I've known him since I was 14.

135
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,440
His uncle lives across
the street from us.

136
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,760
I'm sure you know
he's there a lot.

137
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:20,880
"The Stenersen hut".

138
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,720
That house has been called
a lot of things. [chuckles]

139
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:32,360
"A nightmare in blue-coloured
concrete with glass and glass bricks",

140
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,720
one critic wrote.

141
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,080
Mmm.

142
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,360
Or "a headache in
Norwegian functionalism".

143
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:46,040
I like it. It's unusual, modern.

144
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:48,800
There are no fixed norms.

145
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:54,440
I like things that challenge, that point
to the future, not just to the past.

146
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,960
Something that challenges you.
Like that Bergemann on the wall.

147
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,080
I think my past is
challenging me all the time.

148
00:14:04,680 --> 00:14:08,000
[both chuckles]

149
00:14:15,560 --> 00:14:20,320
So, if you're not so fond of the past,
you probably know others here tonight?

150
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:25,280
Yes, Ilmi. I've known
her since primary school.

151
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,920
Then there's
Mariann, Nils Jørgen…

152
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:34,720
Who happens to be one of my best
friends. Funny we haven't met before.

153
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,160
We have.

154
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,400
The sailing camp at
Hankø, when we were kids.

155
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:48,840
You pulled my scarf off.

156
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,120
You don't remember that either,
even when you're reminded of it.

157
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,480
I do remember the camp…

158
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,160
but not that.

159
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,200
Well, I remember that.

160
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:06,600
[chuckles]

161
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,120
[Prince Herald] What
do you do for a living?

162
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,840
I work at Haraldsen
Confectionery, in Skippergata.

163
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:17,320
Are you familiar with it?

164
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:18,960
Mmm.

165
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,520
No…

166
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,720
I don't very often move,
east of Egertorget.

167
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:27,360
[loud laughter]

168
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,440
I'm… supposed to run
it with my brother.

169
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:50,240
It's my father's…
was my father's shop.

170
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,440
It just feels
strange to say "was".

171
00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,360
I lost my father
three months ago.

172
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,960
I'm sorry to hear that.

173
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,600
You know what it's
like to lose a parent.

174
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,280
Everyone loved your mother.

175
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,920
I'm sorry, I shouldn't have…

176
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,000
It's fine.

177
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:40,960
Do you still sail?

178
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:45,200
Yes, I do.

179
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:48,160
What made you start?

180
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,920
Well, father's always
loved his boats…

181
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:54,440
So you have to do it as well?

182
00:16:58,360 --> 00:16:59,760
No…

183
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:05,200
Well, I guess I found out that…

184
00:17:05,319 --> 00:17:08,079
that's the only place
where I can really relax.

185
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:10,880
Out at sea.

186
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,640
Which is where I
usually sail. [chuckles]

187
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:16,520
[both laugh]

188
00:17:18,319 --> 00:17:19,319
Yes.

189
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,680
[mellow piano music]

190
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,600
[indistinct chatter]

191
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:44,720
- [man] Do you dare to question this?
- [man] Of course I do.

192
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:49,600
[man] I do when you present such
high-flying ideas. Completely unrealistic!

193
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,840
- [Mariann] You took it from me.
- [Ilmi] It has to be OK to…

194
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,840
- [Berhard] How's the math going?
- [Johan] How's it going?

195
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,520
- [Bernard] Yes.
- [Johan] It's going better than ever.

196
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,920
[Bernard] I'm just trying
to find some objections.

197
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:04,080
[Johan] There are no
objections. That's the point.

198
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,040
You're a pessimist, Bernhard.
I've always said so.

199
00:18:07,120 --> 00:18:08,800
[Bernhard] What's this about?

200
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:14,520
I'm talking about the company
you, Nils Jørgen, and I will start

201
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,600
when you've finished
your study abroad.

202
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,680
We will combine
tradition and innovation.

203
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,000
Your shipping background
with modern technology.

204
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,760
Not all acorns grow
into trees though.

205
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,240
- Johan's big acorns have a chance.
- [Johan chuckles]

206
00:18:27,360 --> 00:18:28,360
Thank you!

207
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,440
We'll be doing
aviation mediation.

208
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,360
Planes that will transport seafarers
and spare parts for ships worldwide.

209
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,920
If we get to lead in this field,
which I am certain we will,

210
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,680
there'll be big money
to be made there.

211
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,640
There is no air traffic as
predictable as transport to the ships.

212
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:47,640
So you think.

213
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,360
That's absolutely
right, Bernhard. I do.

214
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,720
We're going to create
something all by ourselves.

215
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,880
- Real entrepreneurial work.
- What about publishing?

216
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,400
No, eventually I might but
I want to go into business…

217
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:02,520
or art.

218
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:04,160
Or both. [all chuckles]

219
00:19:08,120 --> 00:19:12,080
Here's to Bernhard's
last party in this house.

220
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:13,400
Cheers.

221
00:19:14,360 --> 00:19:16,800
- [Ilmi] He held your hand?
- [Sonja] Yes.

222
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:22,040
I was thinking, "What
am I to do now?"

223
00:19:22,120 --> 00:19:23,920
I think you did the right thing.

224
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:28,480
How is he, really?

225
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:32,720
Surprisingly funny.

226
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,280
It's cute that someone in
his position can be so shy.

227
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:40,320
- He's more handsome than in pictures.
- Be careful not to fall in love now.

228
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:46,040
- He must marry a crown princess.
- A princess it is.

229
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,880
Maybe it is, yes. At
least not someone like us.

230
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,560
And that is his loss. [chuckles]

231
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,880
I have no intention
of marrying him.

232
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,080
Why does he have to, anyway?

233
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:02,760
Because that's how it is.

234
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:05,760
That is not an answer.

235
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,280
He's the only one in Norway who has
to ask his father who he can marry.

236
00:20:10,360 --> 00:20:13,520
- Luckily, I don't have to ask mine.
- [Sonja chuckles]

237
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:20,720
Goodnight.

238
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:23,760
Are you glad you
came to the party?

239
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:26,120
Very much.

240
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:32,320
Tell your mom I'll be there
next Saturday. At six o'clock.

241
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:40,760
[mellow music]

242
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:43,960
[door closing]

243
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,040
[chuckles]

244
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:57,840
[birds chirping]

245
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,520
[male cadet] Your Majesty,
the boat is now ready.

246
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,280
[King Olav] Well, that's great.

247
00:21:07,360 --> 00:21:09,800
I'm used to many shiny
things, but that…

248
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,800
A trophy in sailing, it's not everyday
you get to have that in your own name.

249
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,440
[phone line continuous
beeping sound]

250
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,080
[phone ringing]

251
00:21:35,360 --> 00:21:36,920
What the hell are you doing?

252
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,440
The regatta starts
in half an hour!

253
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:41,960
- [King Olav] We've got work today.
- Yes.

254
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,840
Yes, you'll be picked up at two.
In time for your speech. Come on.

255
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:51,240
Mr Mayor.

256
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:54,360
Ladies and Gentlemen…

257
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,920
- So, for you, champagne cocktail…
- Thank you.

258
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,000
And for you…

259
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,160
[Prince Harald] It is an
honour for me to be here today.

260
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,720
[indistinct chatter]

261
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:10,640
[Prince Harald] Public art is
important for human well-being.

262
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,280
And the Royal House,

263
00:22:15,120 --> 00:22:18,160
through its history and work

264
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:22,760
has access to many
art treasures.

265
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,960
But it makes me extra happy

266
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:32,760
travelling across the country seeing
that people also believe that…

267
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,720
[Prince Harald]
art is important.

268
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,880
Yes, you can say what you like,

269
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:43,320
but he doesn't have his grandfather's
charisma, neither does his father.

270
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:45,920
[Prince Harald]
Although I cannot claim…

271
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,520
- It can't be easy for them.
- You cannot represent Norway

272
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:52,640
and look as grumpy as
the Crown Prince does.

273
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,920
Grumpy? He's just taking
the task seriously.

274
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,320
It might be a bit too
serious. He seems very gloomy.

275
00:23:00,120 --> 00:23:01,640
Enough now.

276
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,800
[Prince Harald]…Norwegian
artists.

277
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:07,640
Thank you.

278
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:11,240
Then the Crown Prince walks
over to perform the unveiling.

279
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:19,160
[crowd chuckling]

280
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:22,800
The Crown Prince is
having difficulties

281
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:27,320
[reporter] getting the canvas off,
apparently it is stuck onto the sculpture.

282
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:31,080
[reporter] Listeners can hear
that it is causing some amusement

283
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,760
among the audience.

284
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,040
[people keep chuckling]

285
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:43,600
[sighs]

286
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,960
Your Royal Highness.
I'm from Verdens Gang.

287
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,200
Does the Crown Prince have any
comment on the engagement rumours

288
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,240
about you and Princess
Sophia of Greece?

289
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,520
[car engine revving]

290
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,320
[Volare (Nel blu

291
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,240
Sonja? Phone call for you.

292
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,200
Hello.

293
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,480
[Prince Harald] It's Harald.

294
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:44,760
Oh, hello.

295
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,480
[Prince Harald]
Thanks for last week.

296
00:24:49,360 --> 00:24:51,840
Yes, thank you too, it was nice.

297
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:59,320
So, I was wondering if you
would like to accompany me

298
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:05,040
to the graduation ball at the War
College? Friday 28th at seven o'clock.

299
00:25:11,360 --> 00:25:13,040
[stutters] Thank you.

300
00:25:13,120 --> 00:25:17,360
Yes, thank you. Of
course, I'd love to.

301
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:20,400
Super!

302
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:25,680
[Prince Harald] There will be a diploma
handover ceremony in the morning.

303
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:30,560
I can get a friend to
invite you in his name.

304
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,680
[Prince Harald] We have
to be a little discreet.

305
00:25:37,120 --> 00:25:38,520
[Sonja] Yes, of course.

306
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:44,480
Good. I am looking
forward to it.

307
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:46,800
So am I.

308
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:53,000
See you then.

309
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,160
[mellow music]

00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:07,720
[exhales]

311
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,400
I've been invited to a ball
with Crown Prince Harald.

312
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:20,480
What?

313
00:26:21,120 --> 00:26:23,600
[both chuckle] That's nice.

314
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,360
[Sonja sighs]

315
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:29,840
How about this one?

316
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:32,840
[both chuckle]

317
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,400
I looked like a bride,
but was only a confirmand.

318
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:39,840
Didn't look so bad on the hanger.
Dad and I thought it was great.

319
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,920
[Dagny] You take care of this,
I'll make coffee. Do you want some?

320
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,640
- Don't tell anyone.
- Of course not.

321
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,200
People will start gossiping.

322
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:51,160
It's only a ball.

323
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:53,680
Yes.

- Good morning, everybody.
- Good morning.

326
00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:05,040
Before we get started, this woman is
rumoured to be Norway's future queen.

327
00:27:05,120 --> 00:27:08,760
On that occasion, I have made a
scoop. A rather unique photograph.

328
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:13,360
[Oskar] It's Princess
Sophia of Greece.

Prince's third cousin.

- No, it isn't.

princess from Denmark or the Netherlands.

333
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:30,200
Not anymore. The Greek royal family
is coming to Oslo this weekend.

We'll run this on the
front page tomorrow,

then we'll cover the Crown
Prince's graduation on Friday

00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:33,560
- Good day, cadets.
- Good day, Your Majesty.

348
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:36,840
[drum roll continues]

349
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,480
[mellow music]

350
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,640
- Where is the cadet from?
- I'm from Hamar, Your Majesty.

351
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:55,840
Good.

352
00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:05,120
Remember that the lion should
always smile at the sun, cadet.

353
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:06,200
Yes, Your Majesty.

354
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,720
[Commander] You have not had
any relief in terms of workload.

355
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:31,640
Your high position has made your workload
greater than that of other cadets.

356
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:36,520
Cadet Crown Prince Harald, will you
come forward and receive your diploma?

357
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:48,360
[foot stomping]

358
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,240
Your Majesty. Commander.

359
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:02,280
I have been asked to say a few
words on behalf of the cadets,

360
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:07,080
and I would like to thank the Norwegian
Military Academy for instructive years.

361
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,720
It has been a rewarding period
where we have learned a lot.

362
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,640
But I would also like
to take this opportunity

363
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:28,040
to make a request to
the examination board.

364
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:31,760
The exam can easily become
a bit of a marathon test.

365
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,480
The cadets are not
shirking hard work.

366
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,760
But a revision of the regulations
could be of importance to the school,

367
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,640
and be a breakthrough in
attendance for the cadets.

368
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:45,640
[crowd chuckling]

369
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,240
Now we know what the
headline will be on Monday.

370
00:30:58,400 --> 00:30:59,560
Thank you.

371
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,040
[footsteps approaching]

372
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,920
[mellow music]

373
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,000
[indistinct chatter]

374
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,600
- Hi.
- Congratulations.

375
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,200
- Are you pleased with the result?
- It went very well actually. [chuckles]

376
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:14,400
[Sonja] Oh…

377
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,400
Gosh… better than quite well!

378
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,000
[upbeat music]

379
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,720
- That was fun.
- [both giggling]

380
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,760
- I have to say you're a good leader.
- [Prince Harald giggles]

381
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,720
I have to say
you're easy to lead.

382
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,400
- You're a good orator.
- [Prince Harald chuckles]

383
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:25,040
My favourite was "A breakthrough
in attendance for the cadets."

384
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:29,080
- I shouldn't have said that.
- It was funny.

385
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:33,040
That's what the press will
be writing about on Monday.

386
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,800
- Were you told off?
- I saw his face.

387
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,080
[soft orchestra music]

388
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,000
- [footsteps approaching]
- [indistinct chatter]

389
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,240
I guess it's not that
straightforward for me.

390
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,400
It can't be that
difficult, can it?

391
00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,040
[orchestra keeps playing]

392
00:34:40,679 --> 00:34:43,800
[music continues]

393
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:21,280
[music fades]

394
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,400
[female guide] We
are now in Setesdal,

395
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:27,160
and it's a valley
three hours from Oslo.

396
00:35:27,240 --> 00:35:30,680
[female guide] And this house
is from seventeen thirty-nine

397
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,720
and that house is
from seventeen fifty.

398
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,560
- [female guide] It's a traditional house.
- How was your summer?

399
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,600
[Prince Harald] It was fine.

400
00:35:40,720 --> 00:35:44,000
[Prince Harald] Quite
uneventful. Mostly sailing.

401
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:51,120
- Oh, how lovely. Did you compete?
- Sometimes, yes.

402
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:55,000
[sheep baaing]

403
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,000
This prioritisation
from Knippe is peculiar.

404
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:06,880
Do you know how much VG sold when
Princess Ragnhild got married?

405
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:10,200
If this is so important, where
are all the other journalists?

406
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:13,120
Is it just VG that
will be covering this?

407
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:14,880
Good question.

408
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,320
Oh it's very old. Time
of the Vikings I think.

409
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:21,680
[male] Mmm, interesting.

410
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:33,000
We're not leaving until we have a
picture of Sophia and Harald together.

411
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:35,520
Come on.

412
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:42,400
Can you gather them?

413
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:46,120
[photographer] Like that.

414
00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:57,600
[camera clicking]

415
00:36:57,680 --> 00:36:59,640
What's that? Get the
press out of here.

416
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:03,920
[footsteps advancing]

417
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:07,360
[Annemor] I think it's
time for us to leave.

418
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:08,680
[Annemor] We're leaving.

419
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,880
[mellow music]

420
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:35,400
[music continues]

421
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:44,720
- Hi.
- Hi.

422
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,760
[music continues]

423
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:41,200
Father, have you
thought about it?

424
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,520
- What?
- You know what I mean.

425
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:49,560
Not now.

426
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,560
[sighs]

427
00:39:00,720 --> 00:39:02,600
[music fades]

428
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:05,520
[Princess Astrid]
It's been four years.

429
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,680
You know how I feel about that.
He is a commoner and divorced.

430
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,760
- People marry divorcees...
- I have spoken!

431
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:17,880
It's different for us.

432
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,320
We have to think about
what people might think.

433
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:27,040
[door slamming heavily]

434
00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:32,920
[upbeat music]

435
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,040
- Here come the bumps.
- [Sonja giggles]

436
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:45,120
You know that moment
in a relationship…

437
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:48,280
What kind of relationship?
Being in love?

438
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:51,760
Call it what you want,

439
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:57,160
but the point where you start to
wonder if other women are involved.

440
00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,440
- Are you there with Harald?
- No… are you insane?

441
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,800
[woman] It has to be her
because it's the very same suit.

442
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:33,000
[girl] Thank you.

443
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:42,200
Sonja…

444
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,640
WHO IS THIS?

445
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:54,760
Oh…

446
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,000
- Can you buy that one?
- Yes.

447
00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:09,080
Thank you.

448
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,080
- [melodic music]
- [indistinct chatter]

449
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:16,760
[door opening bell]

450
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:25,360
- Just how your father wanted it.
- Yes.

451
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,840
- You got it all done, Haakon.
- [Haakon chuckles]

452
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,280
[Magnhild] Just go and
have a look around, Kari.

453
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:31,720
Lots of dresses.

454
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,320
- Cheers.
- Cheers.

455
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:37,200
- It's working.
- Thank you, Magnhild.

456
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,640
Everything you touch
turns to gold. [chuckles]

457
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,200
If only I had the same drive.

458
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:46,960
Yes… How does it feel?

459
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,960
Yes, of course I'm proud.

460
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:54,440
- This was Karl August's big dream.
- Yes.

461
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,160
Yes, it's a shame he didn't
get to experience this.

462
00:41:57,240 --> 00:42:00,360
But you did came a long way,
didn't you, before he died.

463
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:02,600
Coming from nothing, I mean.

464
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:07,720
I could see it in Sonja from
the time she was very young.

465
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:13,280
And you protected her, didn't you?
But now one can understand why.

466
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:18,080
She was being groomed
for something big.

467
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:34,800
Yes…

468
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:39,680
Our little Karin is not as outgoing
unfortunately, or thank goodness, perhaps.

469
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:45,680
Yes. Sonja has always been…
Oh, thank you very much.

470
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:50,200
Sonja has always been
an energetic type.

471
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:54,440
Not that one needs a lot of energy
for that kind of life. [chuckles]

472
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:56,120
Cheers.

473
00:42:58,600 --> 00:42:59,960
Excuse us for a moment.

474
00:43:07,720 --> 00:43:08,880
WHO IS THIS?

475
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:14,040
- My goodness.
- We didn't know. Is that legal?

476
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:17,800
It probably is. But that
doesn't mean it's right.

477
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:22,720
What's going on?

478
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,360
He won't have anything
more to do with me now.

479
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:30,400
What?

480
00:43:32,720 --> 00:43:35,480
[chuckles] What does
he have to do with you?

481
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:39,360
[sighs]

482
00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:50,280
Are you dating the Crown Prince?

483
00:43:56,000 --> 00:44:00,040
- Why didn't you say something?
- It's not up to me to tell you, is it?

484
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:04,280
You join our guests,
and I'll be out shortly.

485
00:44:14,240 --> 00:44:16,720
We have to think that this
is worst for Harald, Sonja.

486
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,880
He's exposed to this all the time
and can't opt out, like you can.

487
00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:25,400
Do you think I should
opt out on him?

488
00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:28,440
I didn't say that.

489
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:36,560
Someone's asking for the girl who's
usually the cashier here, the skilled one.

490
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:48,760
- The Crown Prince?
- Yes.

491
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:52,000
Yes, and we know what to do.

492
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:55,120
Its like a honeymoon.
It's soon over.

493
00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:57,240
- Yes.
- [Dagny] Yes.

494
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:01,480
[sighs]

495
00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:12,440
Mrs Evensen…

496
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:15,840
was staring at me today.
Did she say anything?

497
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:18,080
No, nothing to worry about.

498
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:21,360
[jazz music]

499
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:24,160
And poor little Karin. And what?

500
00:45:24,240 --> 00:45:27,680
- An unpleasant woman.
- Imagine having a mother like that.

501
00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:29,080
[Dagny hums]

502
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:32,560
Sonja?

503
00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:35,760
- Mmm?
- [Dagny] Sonja, who's this?

504
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,000
Is it him?

505
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:47,600
[door bell ringing]

506
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:54,120
- You… must open. Act surprised.
- Yes, surprised.

507
00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:55,600
[footsteps moving away]

508
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:04,400
[door opening]

509
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:07,440
- Hello.
- Yes, hello.

510
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:13,400
Oh, my goodness. Thank you.

511
00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:16,640
- Dagny Haraldsen.
- Harald.

512
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:18,480
[Dagny] Yes, come in.

513
00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:22,800
- [Prince Harald] Thank you.
- [Dagny] Sonja, you have a visitor.

514
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,280
- Hi.
- Hello.

515
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,880
We were just about to have
dinner. Are you hungry?

516
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:40,560
[sighs]

517
00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,080
- How nice. [chuckles]
- Yes.

518
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:57,920
- Yes. Help yourself.
- Thank you.

519
00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:33,640
Would you perhaps like
something to drink?

520
00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:36,920
Yes, thank you.

521
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:45,720
[mellow music]

522
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:51,520
[secretary] We've received
many pleasant letters

523
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:54,480
since the trip to Northern
Norway, Your Majesty.

524
00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:57,440
[King Olav] Mmm. Good.

525
00:47:59,240 --> 00:48:00,640
[King Olav] Anything else?

526
00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:06,560
And then… I've had a lot of
inquiries regarding this front page.

527
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:13,120
A lot? Can you be a
little more precise?

528
00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:16,080
Well… many inquiries.

529
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:20,720
It's probably just one
of his girlfriends.

530
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:27,760
Your Majesty.

531
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:35,840
[Sonja] Did you see the feature?

532
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:39,680
Mmm… no.

533
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:02,640
Is there anything
the Palace can do?

534
00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:04,920
[Prince Harald] Er…

535
00:49:05,720 --> 00:49:08,960
The Palace does not comment
on these types of articles.

536
00:49:10,720 --> 00:49:12,840
No. Why not?

537
00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:15,480
Er…

538
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:18,400
Hard to say.

539
00:49:21,240 --> 00:49:24,080
- [Sonja] Right.
- Don't think about it.

540
00:49:25,240 --> 00:49:28,440
It will probably drown in all
the gossip that isn't true.

541
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:32,440
[Prince Harald chuckles]

542
00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:36,320
Hmm.

543
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:41,720
- It can't be easy.
- No. You get used to it.

544
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:44,560
Hmm.

545
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:07,280
I was wondering if you'd like to
come to the cinema on Thursday?

546
00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:10,520
Five o'clock at the Frogner?

547
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:14,600
Yes, maybe.

548
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:25,960
Yes.

549
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:33,280
[door closing]

550
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:36,840
[Dagny and Sonja chuckle]

551
00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:39,640
- He's a very nice boy, Sonja.
- Yes.

552
00:50:39,720 --> 00:50:43,360
- When he's finished eating...
- Why do you think he eats so fast?

553
00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:46,120
I don't know.

554
00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:48,400
[chuckles]

555
00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:50,920
Surely the Crown Prince
gets enough food.

556
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,000
Yes, you would expect that.

557
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:56,680
It wasn't disgusting,
it was just very fast.

558
00:50:57,720 --> 00:51:00,120
Maybe he was afraid that
the food would get cold.

559
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:02,040
Maybe.

560
00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:04,880
Maybe we should
have had hot plates.

561
00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:12,800
He's invited me to the
movies on Thursday.

562
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:17,400
Is that wise?

563
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:26,840
[mellow music]

564
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,720
FROGNER CINEMA

565
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:40,400
[narrator] Choose Tempo Lett
from Øglænd. Strong and elegant.

566
00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:45,760
[narrator] No licence. No tax. Light and
comfortable to drive and cheap to run.

567
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:50,280
[narrator] Tempo Lett with the
robust Sachs 50 engine is affordable.

568
00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:53,000
[narrator] It is available
with two or three gears,

569
00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:58,040
[narrator] you have good service options
and affordable spare parts everywhere.

570
00:51:58,120 --> 00:52:02,720
[narrator] Let Tempo Lett take you to work
or out into nature, quickly and easily.

571
00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:04,160
[narrator] Choose Tempo Lett.

572
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:14,200
[tense music]

573
00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:20,800
[writing loudly]

574
00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:26,240
Yes, thank you.

575
00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:27,600
- Knippe!
- Yes?

576
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:29,960
Rumour has it that picture
had something special.

577
00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:32,560
- Photo?
- Yes, of the Crown Prince.

578
00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:35,400
Apparently he's dating an
ordinary girl from Vinderen.

579
00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:44,840
- Good evening.
- Good evening.

580
00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:47,520
Well…

581
00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:51,800
- What have you been up to today?
- I've been to the cinema.

582
00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:57,480
- A French film.
- French? That's exciting.

583
00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:02,760
By the way, your stay in Oxford next
autumn is starting to take shape.

584
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:08,280
Some of the most interesting years of
my life were spent at Balliol College.

585
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:11,840
Yes, I've given it some thought.

586
00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:16,080
I wonder if there might be
some alternatives to Oxford.

587
00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:19,480
What do you mean?

588
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:23,000
Something closer to home?

589
00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:27,120
There's nothing like Balliol.

590
00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:30,560
The university is the
best England has to offer.

591
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:35,040
They've educated the most prime
ministers in the history of the UK.

592
00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:36,840
Harold MacMillan went there.

593
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:45,480
You will be able to participate
at royal parties in Europe.

594
00:53:45,560 --> 00:53:48,320
After all, we want you to
socialise with the princesses.

595
00:53:59,720 --> 00:54:04,840
Harald, there will
be… situations…

596
00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:10,360
where the work you were born to do will
be in conflict with what you want to do,

597
00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:13,880
the life you may
currently want to live.

598
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,520
Then your duty must
always come first.

599
00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:22,320
At all times. Just look at Elizabeth,
the sacrifices she's had to make.

600
00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:23,400
Yes, Father.

601
00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:27,160
If it had been up to her, she would
have worked with horses full-time.

602
00:54:27,240 --> 00:54:28,600
She was shy, too.

603
00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:33,200
But that will pass. You
learn to thrive on duty.

604
00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:38,160
- Yes.
- Yes, that my cousin Edward

605
00:54:38,240 --> 00:54:42,760
couldn't stay away from this Wallis
Simpson woman still annoys me.

606
00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:46,680
If he hadn't abdicated
in favour of his brother,

607
00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:51,960
the responsibility wouldn't have been
placed on Elizabeth's narrow shoulders.

608
00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:55,960
Not only was Edward
king, he was a great man.

609
00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:57,280
He could have had anyone.

610
00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:01,640
We don't do things like
that in our family.

611
00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:11,400
[actress] I believe!

612
00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:17,720
[indistinct actor dialogue]

613
00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:23,440
Someone saw them at
the movies tonight.

614
00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:25,920
- Yes, and?
- I can still make the deadline.

615
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:30,000
No. We don't write anything until we
get an announcement from the Palace.

616
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:34,600
Listen, Møst. It's obvious that King Olav
would never agree to something like this.

617
00:55:34,720 --> 00:55:38,800
God knows what to do about
your sister. And this Ferner.

618
00:55:39,720 --> 00:55:43,080
Nice guy, but are Norwegians
ready for her to marry a commoner?

619
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:44,960
And someone who is
divorced as well?

620
00:55:47,240 --> 00:55:49,960
Would it be OK if
he wasn't divorced?

621
00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:53,000
She's not the heir to the
throne, but I don't know.

622
00:55:56,280 --> 00:56:00,400
- But the foreign press is covering it.
- They write more than they know.

623
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:05,720
We write less, to be safe. We don't take
things too far with our Royal Family.

624
00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:08,560
My father was worried when
Ragnhild married a commoner.

625
00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:12,120
The discussion about her
marriage has subsided solely

626
00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:15,320
because she moved to the
other side of the world.

627
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:16,840
I'm convinced of that.

628
00:56:19,440 --> 00:56:21,600
Astrid could have had
a dynastic career.

629
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:26,600
I can't believe one
can't see that clearly.

630
00:56:26,720 --> 00:56:29,640
- Just finish for the day.
- Let me investigate a little further.

631
00:56:29,720 --> 00:56:33,040
If they're serious, it's
about the constitution.

632
00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:34,680
Enough for now.

633
00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:38,040
[tense music continues]

634
00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:47,720
[music intensifies]

635
00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:04,680
[subtitles: Monica Lobefaro]
