- [BOBO] Breathe in, ma'am.
- [PHILIP GARGLES]

158
00:09:27,969 --> 00:09:28,889
[BOBO] Just a bit more.

159
00:09:28,914 --> 00:09:30,905
[PHILIP]
You gave Mrs. Kennedy to Uncle Dickie.

160
00:09:31,164 --> 00:09:33,705
- [BOBO] There.
- Yes, I did. At his request.

161
00:09:33,785 --> 00:09:35,385
He's been badgering me for weeks.

162
00:09:35,465 --> 00:09:37,789
As, incidentally, has
your brother-in-law.

163
00:09:38,171 --> 00:09:39,265
- Berthold?
- Yes.

164
00:09:39,345 --> 00:09:40,345
The rascal.

165
00:09:40,425 --> 00:09:43,425
Not to mention our own Prime Minister
and the American ambassador.

166
00:09:43,560 --> 00:09:44,765
[PHILIP] Well, well, well.

167
00:09:45,187 --> 00:09:47,512
[ELIZABETH] All desperate to
sit next to the First Lady.

168
00:09:48,947 --> 00:09:50,804
I could let it out a bit, ma'am.

169
00:09:52,385 --> 00:09:55,585
- No.
- [PHILIP] What if I'm requesting her too?

170
00:09:55,742 --> 00:09:58,625
- [ELIZABETH] I put you next to Theodora.
- She's my sister.

171
00:09:58,773 --> 00:10:00,705
[ELIZABETH] Yes, whom you
haven't seen in years.

172
00:10:00,730 --> 00:10:03,785
No, she's still my sister
and this is, oh, you know...

173
00:10:04,054 --> 00:10:05,785
No. I don't know.

174
00:10:06,083 --> 00:10:07,203
Her!

175
00:10:07,665 --> 00:10:11,225
Anyway, in terms of protocol,
isn't it my right, as your husband,

176
00:10:11,305 --> 00:10:13,225
to sit next to the most
senior female there?

177
00:10:13,305 --> 00:10:15,745
It's true. At a state dinner
you could've expected to sit

178
00:10:15,825 --> 00:10:19,025
next to the most senior female
guest, but on this occasion,

179
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:23,065
Downing Street have asked us... begged
us, not to make it a state dinner.

180
00:10:23,145 --> 00:10:24,145
[PHILIP] Why?

181
00:10:24,225 --> 00:10:26,225
So as not to put
French noses out of joint.

182
00:10:26,305 --> 00:10:28,425
[PHILIP] What's it got to do
with the bloody French?

183
00:10:28,505 --> 00:10:31,305
Well, apparently de Gaulle
will resist us joining the EEC

184
00:10:31,330 --> 00:10:33,865
if he thinks we're too
close to the Americans.

185
00:10:33,945 --> 00:10:36,665
- So it's a small, informal dinner.
- [PHILIP] Well, fine.

186
00:10:36,745 --> 00:10:39,905
- Then it's a free-for-all seating-wise.
- [ELIZABETH] Yes, I suppose it is.

187
00:10:39,985 --> 00:10:42,425
In which case, I could move
Dickie next to my sister

188
00:10:42,505 --> 00:10:45,305
and put myself next to the First Lady.

189
00:10:45,385 --> 00:10:46,734
[ELIZABETH] If you must.

190
00:10:47,489 --> 00:10:48,809
[PHILIP SNIFFS] Oh, well.

191
00:10:50,305 --> 00:10:51,545
I must.

- [JFK] Fantastic.

218
00:12:23,625 --> 00:12:26,411
[ELIZABETH] It's mass hysteria.
What extraordinary behavior.

219
00:12:26,436 --> 00:12:27,796
[PORCHEY] Quite extraordinary.

220
00:12:28,419 --> 00:12:29,843

- Yes!

Yes, well. Shall we?

I believe you know our Prime Minister...

in about 10,000 different ways.

in Vienna, Khrushchev humiliated him,

00:14:08,785 --> 00:14:11,718
ran rings round him,
treated him like a little boy.

I've absolutely no idea.

279
00:15:46,025 --> 00:15:47,825
[ELIZABETH] Now, this
is the Throne Room.

280
00:15:47,905 --> 00:15:50,406
In the early years
of Queen Victoria's reign,

281
00:15:50,585 --> 00:15:52,985
various balls and
concerts were held here,

282
00:15:53,312 --> 00:15:55,745
but now it's principally used
for receptions,

283
00:15:55,825 --> 00:15:58,960
investitures and the taking
of royal wedding photographs.

284
00:16:04,627 --> 00:16:05,718
Shall we?

285
00:16:06,505 --> 00:16:08,476
[ELIZABETH]
Now, this is the Picture Gallery.

286
00:16:09,145 --> 00:16:11,905
This is my
great-great-great-great-grandfather,

287
00:16:11,985 --> 00:16:16,265
George III, and he bought
Buckingham House in 1761

288
00:16:16,345 --> 00:16:18,164
for his wife, Queen Charlotte.

289
00:16:18,953 --> 00:16:20,070
Who's this?

290
00:16:20,814 --> 00:16:24,174
[ELIZABETH] Ah. That's one of the Pitts.
The Younger.

291
00:16:25,025 --> 00:16:29,545
Known for something that's always rather
endeared me to him: Crippling shyness.

292
00:16:30,788 --> 00:16:33,668
Apparently, he could barely
look people in the eye.

293
00:16:35,004 --> 00:16:37,044
And yet he became our prime minister.

294
00:16:37,945 --> 00:16:39,465
I quite understand.

295
00:16:40,340 --> 00:16:42,601
I'm also a shy person by nature.

296
00:16:49,964 --> 00:16:52,244
This leads to our private apartments.

297
00:16:55,209 --> 00:16:56,492
It's a shortcut.

298
00:17:00,265 --> 00:17:03,093
This is about as private as it gets
in this place.

299
00:17:04,242 --> 00:17:05,804
It's where one feels most comfortable.

300
00:17:06,465 --> 00:17:08,225
Oh, I quite understand.

301
00:17:09,142 --> 00:17:11,902
You have to have somewhere to escape to.

302
00:17:12,825 --> 00:17:16,465
I've often wondered how someone
who hates attention as much as I do

303
00:17:16,545 --> 00:17:19,500
ended up in a goldfish bowl
like the White House.

304
00:17:21,468 --> 00:17:23,745
But I realize there's actually
a perverse logic

305
00:17:23,825 --> 00:17:26,865
to a cripplingly shy person
ending up in this position.

306
00:17:26,945 --> 00:17:28,804
Oh, you'll have to
explain that one to me.

307
00:17:29,505 --> 00:17:33,025
Well, a shy person will seek out
someone strong to protect them.

308
00:17:34,218 --> 00:17:36,105
Yes. I'm with you so far.

309
00:17:36,273 --> 00:17:40,335
And a strong character's often one
who enjoys public life.

310
00:17:40,834 --> 00:17:42,234
Who thrives on it.

311
00:17:43,164 --> 00:17:46,625
And then, before you know it,
the very person you've turned to

312
00:17:46,705 --> 00:17:50,065
in order to protect you
is the very reason you are exposed.

313

those words have turned
into something quite different
