Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:03,799
Is that thing on? Yeah.
2
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:06,800
Er...
3
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:12,680
OK?
4
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:19,519
Princess Diana - once the most
famous face in the world.
5
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:23,639
But there was also a private Diana,
known only to a few...
6
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:25,919
If you come in here,
you sit down and be quiet.
7
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:27,559
You've got to be very quiet.
Very quiet.
8
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:33,600
Don't touch it, William,
cos it's all focused on...
9
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,519
...and this Diana had a story to tell.
10
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:40,959
I was brought up in the sense
that, you know,
11
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,559
when you got engaged to someone,
you loved them.
12
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:47,479
In 1992, she began recording
a series of video tapes.
13
00:00:47,480 --> 00:00:51,119
...whereupon he leapt upon me, and
started kissing me and everything,
14
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:52,639
and I thought, ""
You know...
15
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,279
"This is not what people do!"
16
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:55,919
And he was all over me.
17
00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:00,639
This was a different Diana.
Uninhibited, free-talking, candid...
18
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,640
We met 13 times before we got married.
19
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:11,719
...with a story that was rocking the
foundations of the British monarchy.
20
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,479
So I went to the top lady,
21
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,319
and, sobbing, I said "What do I do,
I'm coming to you, what do I do?"
22
00:01:17,320 --> 00:01:20,639
She said, "I don't know what you
should do. Charles is hopeless."
23
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,680
And that was it. That was help.
24
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,079
"Ladies and gentlemen..."
25
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:31,000
There is no other footage that
reveals her spirit so intimately.
26
00:01:32,320 --> 00:01:35,879
It has never been seen
in Britain before.
27
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:40,519
Diana knew there were few things
more dangerous to the establishment
28
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,359
than a princess with a story.
29
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,159
You're getting to telling the story?
30
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:46,720
No, I'm not.
31
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,039
You're a storyteller.
32
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:55,879
If you feel strong about a point,
make it very strongly.
33
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,360
See how far you can go.
34
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,519
This is BBC Radio in London.
35
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,559
According to the French news agency,
36
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,519
a French government minister has
said within the past few minutes
37
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,439
that Diana, Princess of Wales,
has died.
38
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:40,559
He said she was killed in a
car crash in central Paris.
39
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:41,839
I'll repeat that.
40
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:43,439
Diana, Princess of Wales,
41
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,240
has been killed in a car crash
in the centre of Paris...
42
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:52,119
This is a story from a green
and pleasant land
43
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,800
about a prince and his princess.
44
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,319
According to legend,
45
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,840
it was the birthplace of King Arthur
and the Knights of the Round Table.
46
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,439
But that was an ancient story,
47
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:07,359
about chivalry.
48
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,160
This is a modern story.
49
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,160
People's emotions...
50
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,239
...people's insecurities...
51
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,240
people's distress...
52
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,800
...people's hopes and dreams.
53
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:39,520
Here was a fairy story
that everybody wanted to work.
54
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,679
I knew that something profound
was coming my way,
55
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,839
and I was just... treading water,
waiting for it.
56
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,039
I didn't know what it was,
I didn't know where it was,
57
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,519
I didn't know if it was coming
next year or next month,
58
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:05,720
but I knew I was different from
my friends in where I was going.
59
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,320
It is the spring of 1981.
60
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:33,560
Mrs Thatcher has been Prime Minister
for nearly two years.
61
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:47,159
In London, Brixton is in flames,
and after Brixton,
62
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:51,880
Handsworth, Bristol, Moss Side,
Toxteth.
63
00:04:54,840 --> 00:05:01,039
There are more people out of work
than at any time since the 1930s.
64
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:06,120
In 1981, this is what the nation's
story had come to.
65
00:05:07,280 --> 00:05:10,039
Perhaps, as the Princess said,
66
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,240
most people were ready
for a fairy tale.
67
00:05:16,280 --> 00:05:17,799
The state coach,
68
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,799
surely the most beautiful vehicle
in all the world.
69
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:25,359
A free translation into carved and
gilded imagery of all the history
70
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,440
and tradition of Britain
and the Empire.
71
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,239
Like all golden coaches...
72
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,599
like Cinderella's...
73
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:38,280
this one was built to astonish
and bewitch.
74
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,239
Only this is a coach
for real kings and queens,
75
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,879
whose ancestors reach back 1,000 years
76
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,360
to the beginnings of the nation.
77
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,679
1948...
78
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,639
a royal christening.
79
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,319
Our future Queen and a boy
born to be King.
80
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,720
Charles Philip Arthur George.
81
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,439
1953 - a coronation.
82
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:10,359
In the four corners of the Earth,
her subjects acclaim...
83
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,839
Elizabeth is Queen.
84
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,839
The stage is set.
85
00:06:17,840 --> 00:06:20,200
There is a queen - Elizabeth.
86
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,799
There is a prince, Charles.
87
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,399
Among the page boys,
there is Andrew Parker Bowles,
88
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,080
who will also have a part to play.
89
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,599
Only the princess is missing.
90
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,440
Diana will not be born
for another eight years.
91
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,680
I was a rebel.
92
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:51,839
I always did the dares.
93
00:06:51,840 --> 00:06:54,239
I always did, erm...
the opposite of everybody else.
94
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,759
I wasn't academically interested
at all.
95
00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:00,159
I just wanted to be with people,
have fun, you know?
96
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:04,400
Look after people,
and things like that.
97
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,519
I got the prize for being
the kindest girl in school,
98
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,959
I got the prize for this...
This doesn't ring "rebel."
99
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,039
I know, but it was underlying.
100
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,199
It was always there. What, the rebel
was going on underneath, but...?
101
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:17,640
But that didn't come out.
102
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,240
What do you mean, they didn't
see it, or...? They didn't see it.
103
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,879
1969 - Diana is eight.
104
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,639
Prince Charles is nearly 21...
105
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,960
and at Caernarfon Castle, he's about
to be invested as Prince of Wales.
106
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:44,279
I, Charles, Prince of Wales,
do become your liege man
107
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,480
of life and limb,
and of earthly worship.
108
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,319
It was the first Queen Elizabeth
109
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,679
who said that a crown
was more pleasant to look at
110
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,280
than to wear.
111
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,760
She knew there was a price to pay
for being a queen...
112
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:12,880
...or a king.
113
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,039
It's a very demanding role,
114
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:23,480
being Prince of Wales...
115
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,200
...but it's an equally more
demanding role being king.
116
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,800
Who knows what fate will produce?
117
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,520
Who knows what circumstances
will provoke?
118
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:53,279
Do you have any thoughts about the lady
119
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,399
that a Prince of Wales should marry?
120
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,319
Erm...
121
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,199
Yes. Well, I suppose...
122
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,119
You see, it's awfully difficult,
123
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:06,199
because you've got to remember
that when you marry, in my position,
124
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,319
you're going to marry somebody
who perhaps one day
125
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,279
is going to become Queen,
126
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:15,559
and you've got to choose
somebody very carefully, I think.
127
00:09:15,560 --> 00:09:17,399
And it's got to be
somebody pretty special,
128
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,479
because if you choose somebody
who isn't used to it, it can,
129
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,240
I should think, probably
cause the most awful tension.
130
00:09:35,818 --> 00:09:37,498
Kensington Gardens.
131
00:09:39,098 --> 00:09:40,378
Kensington Palace.
132
00:09:43,738 --> 00:09:47,377
An old admirer returns
to pick up the pieces.
133
00:09:47,378 --> 00:09:52,177
James Colthurst -
Etonian, doctor, minor aristocrat,
134
00:09:52,178 --> 00:09:53,818
old friend of Diana.
135
00:09:54,818 --> 00:09:57,098
He'd known her
since before the story began.
136
00:09:59,058 --> 00:10:01,858
She must have been just about 17.
137
00:10:03,058 --> 00:10:04,538
Yeah, she was pretty young.
138
00:10:07,178 --> 00:10:08,578
Well, she was great fun.
139
00:10:09,978 --> 00:10:11,578
A real breath of joy.
140
00:10:14,898 --> 00:10:17,377
Well, she had a flat in...
141
00:10:17,378 --> 00:10:19,337
Just on the Old Brompton Road.
142
00:10:19,338 --> 00:10:22,137
It was Earls Court -
it was Old Brompton Road.
143
00:10:22,138 --> 00:10:23,578
Loved it - so happy there.
144
00:10:26,938 --> 00:10:30,298
All girls, of whom she was
the declared chief chick.
145
00:10:32,258 --> 00:10:34,297
And I had three girls living with me.
146
00:10:34,298 --> 00:10:36,657
We had the best time of my life.
147
00:10:36,658 --> 00:10:38,857
And when fate came calling for Diana,
148
00:10:38,858 --> 00:10:42,657
James was in the front row,
watching it happen.
149
00:10:42,658 --> 00:10:47,217
Diana invited me round to dinner,
and, as I arrived, she said...
150
00:10:47,218 --> 00:10:49,057
A little bit, sort of, excitable,
151
00:10:49,058 --> 00:10:52,297
she said, "I'm afraid
I can't be here for dinner."
152
00:10:52,298 --> 00:10:55,737
I heard a good, strong engine
of a car outside.
153
00:10:55,738 --> 00:10:58,537
Her flatmates - they mentioned
that it was Prince Charles,
154
00:10:58,538 --> 00:11:02,137
and at that stage, I think
the die was cast, as it were.
155
00:11:05,938 --> 00:11:07,377
Is there any possibility
156
00:11:07,378 --> 00:11:10,537
of any announcement of your marriage
in the near future, can you tell me?
157
00:11:12,618 --> 00:11:15,217
Can you tell me if
there's any possibility?
158
00:11:15,218 --> 00:11:17,297
I'm not going to say anything.
159
00:11:17,298 --> 00:11:19,577
Prince Charles did give us a hint
himself.
160
00:11:19,578 --> 00:11:21,577
He said we wouldn't have to wait
too long.
161
00:11:21,578 --> 00:11:23,457
Careful!
162
00:11:23,458 --> 00:11:27,657
Things really started to get
serious when I was, er...
163
00:11:27,658 --> 00:11:30,177
I must have been 18 and a half.
164
00:11:30,178 --> 00:11:32,097
I was asked to stay
with some friends in Sussex,
165
00:11:32,098 --> 00:11:34,457
and they said, "The Prince
of Wales will stay a night,
166
00:11:34,458 --> 00:11:36,057
"cos he's playing polo."
So I thought,
167
00:11:36,058 --> 00:11:37,577
"Well, I haven't seen him for ages.
168
00:11:37,578 --> 00:11:39,297
"He's just broke up
with his girlfriend,
169
00:11:39,298 --> 00:11:42,177
"Mountbatten's just been killed."
And I said it'd be nice to see him.
170
00:11:42,178 --> 00:11:44,737
I was so unimpressed. Anyway, I sat
there, and this man walked in,
171
00:11:44,738 --> 00:11:47,337
and I thought, "Well, I AM
quite impressed this time round."
172
00:11:47,338 --> 00:11:50,097
I was different, and everything
else, and he chatted me up.
173
00:11:50,098 --> 00:11:52,057
You know, like a bad rash.
174
00:11:52,058 --> 00:11:54,857
He was all over me, and I thought...
You know, ""
175
00:11:54,858 --> 00:11:57,697
And we were sitting on this bale of
straw at a barbecue that night,
176
00:11:57,698 --> 00:12:00,097
and we talked about Mountbatten
and his girlfriend,
177
00:12:00,098 --> 00:12:01,777
and I said, "You must be so lonely."
178
00:12:01,778 --> 00:12:05,377
I said, "It's pathetic watching you
walking up the aisle in St Paul's,"
179
00:12:05,378 --> 00:12:09,177
erm... "With Lord Mountbatten's
coffin in front."
180
00:12:09,178 --> 00:12:12,097
I said, you know... "Ghastly.
You need somebody beside you."
181
00:12:12,098 --> 00:12:14,297
Urgh! Wrong word!
182
00:12:14,298 --> 00:12:17,577
Whereupon, he leapt upon me,
started kissing me, and everything,
183
00:12:17,578 --> 00:12:20,897
and I thought, "Urgh!" You know,
"This is not what people do!"
184
00:12:20,898 --> 00:12:23,897
And he was all over me for the rest
of the evening, followed me around,
185
00:12:23,898 --> 00:12:25,377
everything, puppy.
186
00:12:25,378 --> 00:12:28,977
And, erm... yeah, I was flattered,
but I was very puzzled.
187
00:12:28,978 --> 00:12:31,977
The next day, he said, "You must
come to Buckingham Palace with me,
188
00:12:31,978 --> 00:12:32,898
"I've got some work to do,
189
00:12:32,899 --> 00:12:35,777
"but you wouldn't mind sitting there
while I do my work?" And I thought,
190
00:12:35,778 --> 00:12:38,417
"Well, bugger it, I do mind sitting
there while you do your work."
191
00:12:38,418 --> 00:12:41,057
And I said that, and, er... that sort
of lit up something in him,
192
00:12:41,058 --> 00:12:42,697
cos someone answered back.
193
00:12:42,698 --> 00:12:44,137
So I was quite a challenge.
194
00:12:44,138 --> 00:12:46,858
And then it started to... gather.
195
00:12:57,058 --> 00:12:59,097
So were you being monitored?
196
00:12:59,098 --> 00:13:01,217
Seriously monitored. At a rate.
197
00:13:01,218 --> 00:13:05,657
But he wasn't consistent
with his courting abilities.
198
00:13:05,658 --> 00:13:07,377
He'd ring me up every day for a week,
199
00:13:07,378 --> 00:13:09,417
and then he wouldn't speak to me
for three weeks.
200
00:13:09,418 --> 00:13:10,857
Very odd.
201
00:13:10,858 --> 00:13:12,217
And I accepted that. I thought,
202
00:13:12,218 --> 00:13:14,177
"Fine. "Well, he knows
where I am if he wants me."
203
00:13:14,178 --> 00:13:15,857
And I was thrilled
when he used to ring up.
204
00:13:15,858 --> 00:13:17,137
It was so immense and intense.
205
00:13:17,138 --> 00:13:19,857
Drive the other three girls
in my flat crazy.
206
00:13:19,858 --> 00:13:21,537
But, erm...
207
00:13:21,538 --> 00:13:22,978
But it was odd.
208
00:13:26,098 --> 00:13:28,137
I think she had a dream,
209
00:13:28,138 --> 00:13:30,618
and, er... she hoped the dream
would come to life.
210
00:13:31,778 --> 00:13:33,097
An older man,
211
00:13:33,098 --> 00:13:35,817
who was in a prominent position...
212
00:13:35,818 --> 00:13:36,898
liked me...
213
00:13:38,138 --> 00:13:39,698
...and wanted to have me around.
214
00:13:43,498 --> 00:13:46,578
I think she had ideas of
what she'd like it to be...
215
00:13:48,178 --> 00:13:50,937
...and I think there
were other elements
216
00:13:50,938 --> 00:13:53,017
that it would have been
difficult to foresee,
217
00:13:53,018 --> 00:13:54,497
even had she been...
218
00:13:54,498 --> 00:13:55,498
older.
219
00:14:01,738 --> 00:14:03,498
At the age of 19...
220
00:14:05,018 --> 00:14:07,697
...although I was daunted
at the prospect at the time,
221
00:14:07,698 --> 00:14:10,258
I felt I had the support
of my husband-to-be.
222
00:14:15,018 --> 00:14:17,338
I wanted to share everything together.
223
00:14:28,418 --> 00:14:32,177
Balmoral Castle,
in the north of Scotland.
224
00:14:32,178 --> 00:14:34,338
Favourite retreat of the royal family.
225
00:14:37,618 --> 00:14:40,978
Now Diana was invited as a guest.
226
00:14:43,338 --> 00:14:45,377
It's like being sucked in.
227
00:14:45,378 --> 00:14:48,577
You know, there's people pushing,
and people pulling...
228
00:14:48,578 --> 00:14:49,898
all in the same direction.
229
00:14:53,618 --> 00:14:57,257
But often, as Diana grew closer
to the royal circle,
230
00:14:57,258 --> 00:15:00,018
she found that someone else
was already there.
231
00:15:03,178 --> 00:15:04,858
Camilla Parker Bowles.
232
00:15:06,698 --> 00:15:09,177
Camilla went to the races.
233
00:15:09,178 --> 00:15:10,938
She was at the polo matches.
234
00:15:12,298 --> 00:15:14,257
Sometimes, even at Balmoral,
235
00:15:14,258 --> 00:15:15,938
Camilla was also a guest.
236
00:15:19,138 --> 00:15:22,177
This is where Charles courted Diana,
237
00:15:22,178 --> 00:15:25,658
and this is where Camilla
took a look at her.
238
00:15:39,178 --> 00:15:44,617
"Congratulations"
by Cliff Richard
239
00:15:44,618 --> 00:15:46,977
The band
of the Coldstream Guards played,
240
00:15:46,978 --> 00:15:49,697
and the spectators glued themselves
to the railings
241
00:15:49,698 --> 00:15:51,417
outside Buckingham Palace -
242
00:15:51,418 --> 00:15:54,338
all for a glimpse of any
engagement day activity.
243
00:15:55,738 --> 00:15:56,618
Well!
244
00:15:58,938 --> 00:16:01,297
Yeah. Well, what a marvellous day
for you.
245
00:16:01,298 --> 00:16:03,977
Lovely day, lovely day.
We're all very happy.
246
00:16:03,978 --> 00:16:05,657
I saw Diana last night.
247
00:16:05,658 --> 00:16:07,377
She's looking absolutely radiant.
248
00:16:07,378 --> 00:16:09,017
Radiant and very happy.
249
00:16:09,018 --> 00:16:10,618
I've never seen her look better.
250
00:16:12,018 --> 00:16:13,698
Just delighted and happy.
251
00:16:14,898 --> 00:16:16,737
And, I suppose, in love.
252
00:16:16,738 --> 00:16:18,657
Of course.
253
00:16:18,658 --> 00:16:20,977
Whatever "in love" means... Yes!
254
00:16:20,978 --> 00:16:23,057
You CAN put your own interpretation.
255
00:16:23,058 --> 00:16:25,217
Well, it obviously means two
very happy people. Yes.
256
00:16:25,218 --> 00:16:27,377
As you can see.
Well, from us, congratulations.
257
00:16:27,378 --> 00:16:29,577
Thank you very much.
You're very kind.
258
00:16:29,578 --> 00:16:31,137
And the most extraordinary thing is,
259
00:16:31,138 --> 00:16:34,377
we had this ghastly interview on
the day we announced our engagement,
260
00:16:34,378 --> 00:16:37,137
and this ridiculous ITN man said,
261
00:16:37,138 --> 00:16:39,537
"Are you in love?"
What a thick question!
262
00:16:39,538 --> 00:16:41,377
So I said, "Yes, of course we are,"
263
00:16:41,378 --> 00:16:43,617
in this sort of flat Sloane Ranger
that I was.
264
00:16:43,618 --> 00:16:46,937
And Charles turned round and said,
"Whatever in love means."
265
00:16:46,938 --> 00:16:48,618
And that threw me completely.
266
00:16:49,938 --> 00:16:52,897
I thought,
"What a strange question."
267
00:16:52,898 --> 00:16:55,577
And a strange reply... Answer. God!
268
00:16:55,578 --> 00:16:57,538
Absolutely traumatised me.
269
00:17:12,138 --> 00:17:14,057
Well,
the Commanding Officer,
270
00:17:14,058 --> 00:17:15,857
Lieutenant Colonel
Andrew Parker Bowles,
271
00:17:15,858 --> 00:17:17,257
is just starting his inspection.
272
00:17:17,258 --> 00:17:20,337
Andrew Parker Bowles, of course,
is an old friend of Prince Charles.
273
00:17:20,338 --> 00:17:22,337
They used to play polo together.
274
00:17:22,338 --> 00:17:23,777
He and his wife, Camilla,
275
00:17:23,778 --> 00:17:26,817
often entertain Prince Charles
at their home in Gloucestershire.
276
00:17:26,818 --> 00:17:27,857
It has been rumoured
277
00:17:27,858 --> 00:17:31,257
that Prince Charles proposed
to Lady Diana there.
278
00:17:39,618 --> 00:17:41,057
At seven in the morning,
279
00:17:41,058 --> 00:17:45,097
Barbara Daly, make-up artist,
arrives at Clarence House,
280
00:17:45,098 --> 00:17:47,418
where Diana is getting
ready for the wedding.
281
00:17:48,578 --> 00:17:50,378
I liked her immediately.
282
00:17:53,498 --> 00:17:55,857
She was looking at television.
283
00:17:55,858 --> 00:17:58,617
It's kind of a very strange thing,
284
00:17:58,618 --> 00:18:01,017
because you could see the crowds
on the small television
285
00:18:01,018 --> 00:18:02,578
that was just under the window.
286
00:18:03,778 --> 00:18:06,897
And there were all the crowds,
that we could see on the television,
287
00:18:06,898 --> 00:18:08,658
right outside the window.
288
00:18:10,178 --> 00:18:13,978
And she said, "This is a lot of fuss
for one girl getting married!"
289
00:18:21,778 --> 00:18:24,018
We met 13 times before we got married.
290
00:18:33,938 --> 00:18:37,257
We walked down to the carriage,
291
00:18:37,258 --> 00:18:40,497
and she just sort of gave my hand
a little squeeze,
292
00:18:40,498 --> 00:18:44,737
and then hummed me a little ditty,
which was from a commercial -
293
00:18:44,738 --> 00:18:46,217
"One Cornetto."
294
00:18:46,218 --> 00:18:48,417
I don't know, do you remember
that little commercial?
295
00:18:48,418 --> 00:18:51,817
It was about an ice cream, and it
had a big, glitzy carriage in it.
296
00:18:51,818 --> 00:18:54,458
And then off she went!
297
00:19:23,538 --> 00:19:25,577
The beautiful girl...
298
00:19:25,578 --> 00:19:27,977
the handsome prince...
299
00:19:27,978 --> 00:19:29,858
the sunshine, the crowds.
300
00:19:31,178 --> 00:19:32,538
A fairy tale.
301
00:19:34,218 --> 00:19:36,018
It WAS magical.
302
00:20:01,618 --> 00:20:03,658
I desperately wanted it to work.
303
00:20:05,738 --> 00:20:08,058
I desperately loved my husband.
304
00:20:12,898 --> 00:20:15,418
I wanted to share everything together.
305
00:20:39,858 --> 00:20:43,017
Charles Philip Arthur George,
306
00:20:43,018 --> 00:20:46,737
wilt thou have this woman
to thy wedded wife?
307
00:20:46,738 --> 00:20:49,457
Wilt thou love her, comfort her,
308
00:20:49,458 --> 00:20:53,577
honour and keep her
in sickness and in health,
309
00:20:53,578 --> 00:20:58,697
and, forsaking all other,
keep thee only unto her?
310
00:20:58,698 --> 00:21:00,537
I will.
311
00:21:00,538 --> 00:21:03,298
Diana, wilt thou have this man
to thy wedded husband?
312
00:21:04,298 --> 00:21:06,018
I will.
313
00:21:26,538 --> 00:21:32,058
Here is the stuff
of which fairy tales are made.
314
00:21:34,538 --> 00:21:38,578
The Prince and Princess
on their wedding day.
315
00:21:42,898 --> 00:21:48,138
Marriage has both a private face
and a public importance.
316
00:21:53,098 --> 00:21:56,778
It must be specially true
of this marriage...
317
00:21:58,058 --> 00:22:01,978
...in which are placed
so many hopes...
318
00:22:05,778 --> 00:22:11,217
...and stand for the truth
that we help to shape this world,
319
00:22:11,218 --> 00:22:13,418
and are not just its victims.
320
00:22:21,858 --> 00:22:23,297
The escort,
321
00:22:23,298 --> 00:22:26,737
under the command of Lieutenant
Colonel Andrew Parker Bowles.
322
00:22:26,738 --> 00:22:29,657
Prince Charles and Lady Diana stayed
with him and his wife, Camilla,
323
00:22:29,658 --> 00:22:32,218
in Wiltshire, on two occasions
at the end of the year.
324
00:22:33,338 --> 00:22:37,617
So, they're among friends
as they ride along the Mall.
325
00:23:56,064 --> 00:23:58,183
The honeymoon is over.
326
00:23:58,184 --> 00:24:02,303
Diana is no longer on the outside
looking in.
327
00:24:02,304 --> 00:24:05,784
Now she's on the inside looking out.
328
00:24:23,664 --> 00:24:27,663
In a space of
a year, my whole life had changed.
329
00:24:27,664 --> 00:24:29,064
Turned upside down.
330
00:24:31,064 --> 00:24:33,743
It was isolating.
331
00:24:33,744 --> 00:24:36,024
You had to either sink or swim.
332
00:24:41,424 --> 00:24:43,864
And you had to learn that very fast.
333
00:24:46,224 --> 00:24:48,344
I had to sort myself out.
334
00:24:50,344 --> 00:24:55,543
If I tripped up, which invariably
I did, cos I was new at the game,
335
00:24:55,544 --> 00:24:57,744
a tonne of bricks came down on me.
336
00:25:00,944 --> 00:25:02,544
There were lots of tears.
337
00:25:07,944 --> 00:25:10,184
It was a few months after the wedding.
338
00:25:11,544 --> 00:25:13,424
Diana was 20 years old.
339
00:25:14,504 --> 00:25:16,943
In the autumn of 1981,
340
00:25:16,944 --> 00:25:20,143
she came here,
to the English National Ballet,
341
00:25:20,144 --> 00:25:22,903
to take lessons
from the dance instructor,
342
00:25:22,904 --> 00:25:24,504
Anne Allan.
343
00:25:26,024 --> 00:25:27,944
Lovely. And release.
344
00:25:29,464 --> 00:25:32,063
Lovely, darlings.
Great, that's beautiful.
345
00:25:32,064 --> 00:25:35,023
All right, something completely
different.
346
00:25:35,024 --> 00:25:37,104
Feet parallel, yes?
347
00:25:38,064 --> 00:25:41,463
Bending, one, stretching, two,
348
00:25:41,464 --> 00:25:43,863
and relax out before we start.
349
00:25:43,864 --> 00:25:44,864
Deep breath.
350
00:25:46,944 --> 00:25:51,023
So, I was her private dancing teacher.
351
00:25:51,024 --> 00:25:53,143
That's it. There you go.
352
00:25:53,144 --> 00:25:55,863
When I first met her...
353
00:25:55,864 --> 00:25:58,383
you could see that there was...
354
00:25:58,384 --> 00:26:00,384
huge shyness.
355
00:26:02,144 --> 00:26:04,543
But over time,
356
00:26:04,544 --> 00:26:08,303
as we went through our dance class...
357
00:26:08,304 --> 00:26:12,504
I realised just how much
dance meant to her.
358
00:26:18,064 --> 00:26:20,744
She has dance in her soul.
359
00:26:24,824 --> 00:26:28,264
I realised the pure enjoyment
that it gave her.
360
00:26:33,424 --> 00:26:38,704
She loved the freeness
of being able to move and dance.
361
00:26:41,624 --> 00:26:44,304
She loved it. She loved it.
362
00:26:46,904 --> 00:26:51,904
I could see it helped
to alleviate her emotional life...
363
00:26:53,264 --> 00:26:56,544
...that was hard for her
at that time.
364
00:27:06,624 --> 00:27:08,863
Maybe I was the first person ever
365
00:27:08,864 --> 00:27:11,744
to be in this family
who ever had a depression...
366
00:27:13,744 --> 00:27:16,144
...or was ever openly tearful.
367
00:27:21,264 --> 00:27:22,783
I was brought up in the sense that,
368
00:27:22,784 --> 00:27:25,384
you know, when you got engaged
with someone, you loved them.
369
00:27:29,344 --> 00:27:32,384
She loved Charles, yes.
370
00:27:33,784 --> 00:27:36,424
But Charles loved another woman.
371
00:27:39,584 --> 00:27:41,143
It's very hard when...
372
00:27:41,144 --> 00:27:44,064
for any woman, when you love someone...
373
00:27:45,504 --> 00:27:48,984
...and you realise that perhaps
they don't love you.
374
00:27:51,224 --> 00:27:53,344
I think it made her very sad...
375
00:27:56,304 --> 00:27:57,304
...devastated.
376
00:27:58,384 --> 00:28:00,464
She felt she wasn't enough.
377
00:28:17,424 --> 00:28:19,823
BBC News at six o'clock.
378
00:28:19,824 --> 00:28:21,263
The Falkland Islands,
379
00:28:21,264 --> 00:28:23,663
the British colony
in the South Atlantic, has fallen.
380
00:28:23,664 --> 00:28:25,504
That's what Argentina is saying.
381
00:28:27,064 --> 00:28:29,983
For the first time
for many years,
382
00:28:29,984 --> 00:28:35,144
British sovereign territory
has been invaded by a foreign power.
383
00:28:38,584 --> 00:28:40,943
But a large task force will sail
384
00:28:40,944 --> 00:28:44,344
as soon as all preparations
are complete.
385
00:28:48,224 --> 00:28:51,264
I couldn't
understand the level of interest.
386
00:28:53,264 --> 00:28:56,664
As far as I was concerned,
I was a fat, chubby 20-year-old.
387
00:28:58,944 --> 00:29:02,223
My husband and I had to keep
everything together,
388
00:29:02,224 --> 00:29:05,103
and yet, there was a lot
of anxiety going on
389
00:29:05,104 --> 00:29:06,424
within our four walls.
390
00:29:07,984 --> 00:29:10,063
And I used to get in the car
with Charles,
391
00:29:10,064 --> 00:29:12,463
and I used to blub in the car,
there'd be crowds everywhere,
392
00:29:12,464 --> 00:29:14,223
and he said,
"NOW what's the matter?"
393
00:29:14,224 --> 00:29:16,343
I said, "I can't get out of this
car." He said, "Why?"
394
00:29:16,344 --> 00:29:19,463
I said, "I can't get out of
this car. I don't feel safe."
395
00:29:19,464 --> 00:29:22,464
I was neurotic, always,
but then, when I got out the car...
396
00:29:35,744 --> 00:29:38,023
Buckingham Palace
has just announced
397
00:29:38,024 --> 00:29:40,384
that the Princess of Wales
is expecting a baby.
398
00:29:42,024 --> 00:29:45,024
The Princess is said to be
in excellent health.
399
00:29:47,944 --> 00:29:52,703
The Queen and members of both
families are said to be delighted.
400
00:29:52,704 --> 00:29:55,423
I'm not allowed to say
how many planes joined the raid,
401
00:29:55,424 --> 00:29:58,104
but I counted them all out,
and I counted them all back.
402
00:30:00,544 --> 00:30:03,184
The baby will be second in line
to the throne.
403
00:30:05,944 --> 00:30:08,463
She told me
that she was pregnant,
404
00:30:08,464 --> 00:30:12,023
and she wanted to give her marriage
405
00:30:12,024 --> 00:30:14,744
absolutely everything that she could.
406
00:30:16,064 --> 00:30:21,063
She really wanted everybody to feel
proud, but particularly Charles.
407
00:30:21,064 --> 00:30:22,863
It was very important,
because, of course,
408
00:30:22,864 --> 00:30:24,984
he was going to be the future king.
409
00:30:27,064 --> 00:30:30,143
We, the British people,
410
00:30:30,144 --> 00:30:33,303
are proud of what has been done.
411
00:30:33,304 --> 00:30:38,064
Proud of these heroic pages
in our island story.
412
00:30:41,184 --> 00:30:42,663
Proud...
413
00:30:42,664 --> 00:30:44,584
to be British.
414
00:30:55,904 --> 00:30:58,784
I felt the whole
country was in labour with me.
415
00:31:00,464 --> 00:31:02,944
Everybody was thrilled to bits.
416
00:31:04,424 --> 00:31:05,903
Been quite a difficult pregnancy -
417
00:31:05,904 --> 00:31:08,223
I hadn't been very well throughout it,
418
00:31:08,224 --> 00:31:11,944
so by the time William arrived,
it was a great relief...
419
00:31:13,384 --> 00:31:15,304
...because it was all peaceful again.
420
00:31:16,984 --> 00:31:18,823
And I...
421
00:31:18,824 --> 00:31:19,984
was well.
422
00:31:21,184 --> 00:31:22,344
For a time.
423
00:31:26,224 --> 00:31:29,903
You have to understand
how hard that was to hear.
424
00:31:29,904 --> 00:31:33,624
We're talking 1982-3.
425
00:31:35,024 --> 00:31:41,024
And she realised that Charles
is seeing Camilla, and...
426
00:31:42,344 --> 00:31:45,503
...I just remember
being quite horrified
427
00:31:45,504 --> 00:31:49,344
about what she was telling me,
and at the same time...
428
00:31:50,544 --> 00:31:52,024
...rather shocked.
429
00:31:53,264 --> 00:31:55,183
She was worried about...
430
00:31:55,184 --> 00:31:57,104
what it was that was going on.
431
00:31:58,144 --> 00:32:00,063
I know that she did...
432
00:32:00,064 --> 00:32:04,263
ask Camilla to leave her husband alone.
433
00:32:04,264 --> 00:32:06,543
I thought that was quite brave
of her, actually,
434
00:32:06,544 --> 00:32:12,184
because I know how much that must
have taken for her to do that.
435
00:32:14,184 --> 00:32:16,383
And what do you do about it?
436
00:32:16,384 --> 00:32:19,184
What CAN you do about it?
437
00:32:20,304 --> 00:32:24,383
All you can do is to try to make
the marriage work, and...
438
00:32:24,384 --> 00:32:28,663
hope in time that things change,
439
00:32:28,664 --> 00:32:30,663
but...
440
00:32:30,664 --> 00:32:32,664
that's not really what happened.
441
00:32:44,544 --> 00:32:47,864
I don't think the concerns
about Camilla ever stopped.
442
00:32:51,144 --> 00:32:54,463
She was aware things had been going on.
443
00:32:54,464 --> 00:32:55,904
The staff all knew.
444
00:32:57,104 --> 00:32:58,224
Everybody knew.
445
00:32:59,264 --> 00:33:03,864
Everybody knew where he was going,
so she didn't know who to trust.
446
00:33:04,864 --> 00:33:08,144
I noticed that she had lost
a little bit of weight.
447
00:33:09,704 --> 00:33:11,743
And...
448
00:33:11,744 --> 00:33:14,664
that's when she told me
that she was bulimic.
449
00:33:15,744 --> 00:33:18,624
It was pure pressure, stress.
450
00:33:20,584 --> 00:33:23,304
You could see her fading, physically.
451
00:33:24,624 --> 00:33:28,543
It was clear to all those who knew
her that the bulimia was a reaction
452
00:33:28,544 --> 00:33:31,504
to the circumstances
she found herself in.
453
00:33:32,984 --> 00:33:35,783
Everybody knew about the bulimia
in the family,
454
00:33:35,784 --> 00:33:39,343
and they all blamed the failure
of the marriage on the bulimia,
455
00:33:39,344 --> 00:33:42,303
and that's taken some time
to get them to think differently.
456
00:33:42,304 --> 00:33:44,463
I said I was rejected,
I didn't think I was good enough
457
00:33:44,464 --> 00:33:47,543
for this family,
so I took it out on myself.
458
00:33:47,544 --> 00:33:49,943
I said I could gone to alcohol,
which would have been obvious,
459
00:33:49,944 --> 00:33:52,703
I could've been anorexic, which
would've been even more obvious.
460
00:33:52,704 --> 00:33:55,303
I decided to do more a discreet
thing, which ultimately wasn't
461
00:33:55,304 --> 00:33:59,584
discreet, but I chose to hurt myself
instead of hurting all of you.
462
00:34:12,944 --> 00:34:15,543
I felt compelled to perform.
463
00:34:15,544 --> 00:34:19,743
Compelled to go out and do my
engagements and not let people down.
464
00:34:19,744 --> 00:34:23,504
And in a way, by being out
in public, they supported me...
465
00:34:25,144 --> 00:34:26,983
...although they weren't aware
466
00:34:26,984 --> 00:34:29,343
just how much healing
THEY were giving me...
467
00:34:29,344 --> 00:34:31,144
and it carried me through.
468
00:34:36,424 --> 00:34:39,503
We'd be going round,
and all you could hear was,
469
00:34:39,504 --> 00:34:42,583
"She's on the other side."
470
00:34:42,584 --> 00:34:46,183
Now, if you're a man
like my husband, a proud man,
471
00:34:46,184 --> 00:34:50,303
you mind about that if you hear it
every day for four weeks.
472
00:34:50,304 --> 00:34:53,023
You look as if you've got tears
in your eyes - why?
473
00:34:53,024 --> 00:34:55,304
I've been waiting for so long
to see her.
474
00:34:59,464 --> 00:35:01,064
She's beautiful.
475
00:35:02,704 --> 00:35:06,504
With the media attention
came a lot of jealousy.
476
00:35:08,624 --> 00:35:13,303
I've come to the conclusion that
really it would have been far easier
477
00:35:13,304 --> 00:35:15,023
to have had two wives...
478
00:35:18,984 --> 00:35:21,543
...to have covered both sides
of the street.
479
00:35:23,144 --> 00:35:26,543
And I could've walked down the
middle directing the operation.
480
00:35:32,544 --> 00:35:37,624
We were a very good team in public,
albeit what was going on in private.
481
00:35:39,864 --> 00:35:44,143
Rampant bulimia, a feeling of
being no good at anything,
482
00:35:44,144 --> 00:35:45,664
and failed in every direction.
483
00:35:47,744 --> 00:35:50,224
A husband who loved someone else.
484
00:35:52,624 --> 00:35:53,784
I knew it.
485
00:35:55,784 --> 00:35:57,024
You just know.
486
00:36:14,304 --> 00:36:17,743
When I was 24, 25,
I fell deeply in love
487
00:36:17,744 --> 00:36:19,903
with somebody
who worked in this environment.
488
00:36:19,904 --> 00:36:23,623
And it was all found out,
and he was chucked out,
489
00:36:23,624 --> 00:36:25,503
and then he was killed.
490
00:36:25,504 --> 00:36:27,944
And that was the biggest blow
of my life, I must say.
491
00:36:30,744 --> 00:36:33,704
Which I... I don't find easy
to discuss.
492
00:36:34,664 --> 00:36:36,423
1985.
493
00:36:36,424 --> 00:36:37,903
Diana was now the mother
494
00:36:37,904 --> 00:36:42,383
of two young princes, and he was
her royal protection officer,
495
00:36:42,384 --> 00:36:43,504
Barry Mannakee.
496
00:36:44,904 --> 00:36:47,503
I mean, I was quite happy
to give all this up,
497
00:36:47,504 --> 00:36:49,063
well, not all this at the moment -
498
00:36:49,064 --> 00:36:51,223
at the time, it was quite something
to have all this -
499
00:36:51,224 --> 00:36:53,983
just to go off and live with him.
Can you believe it?
500
00:36:53,984 --> 00:36:55,543
SHE CHUCKLES Well, one can.
501
00:36:55,544 --> 00:36:58,423
And he kept saying he thought
it was a good idea, too, so...
502
00:36:58,424 --> 00:37:01,343
God! Yeah.
503
00:37:01,344 --> 00:37:03,943
But you needed some adventure.
504
00:37:03,944 --> 00:37:07,423
I just needed to tell... A blast.
Someone to tell me I was all right.
505
00:37:07,424 --> 00:37:10,343
And he'd kick me out, in the sense
of mentally kick me outside,
506
00:37:10,344 --> 00:37:12,143
and make me go and do my engagements,
507
00:37:12,144 --> 00:37:14,384
cos I used to sort of scream
in this room.
508
00:37:15,784 --> 00:37:19,904
And Charles THOUGHT he knew,
but he never had any proof.
509
00:37:22,184 --> 00:37:24,343
I should never have played
with fire, and I did,
510
00:37:24,344 --> 00:37:25,423
and I got very burnt.
511
00:37:25,424 --> 00:37:28,664
Well, when you say play with fire,
you had a... I mean, you had...
512
00:37:29,904 --> 00:37:30,904
You...
513
00:37:31,904 --> 00:37:34,063
You're saying what you were having
was sexual?
514
00:37:34,064 --> 00:37:35,423
No.
515
00:37:35,424 --> 00:37:37,823
So, you had an intimacy... Yeah.
516
00:37:37,824 --> 00:37:40,944
...which you weren't getting?
Yeah. Erm...
517
00:37:47,224 --> 00:37:49,024
And you think, "Yes."
518
00:37:53,704 --> 00:37:55,104
How old was he?
519
00:37:57,984 --> 00:37:58,984
40.
520
00:38:06,384 --> 00:38:08,344
Did you flirt with your dad?
521
00:38:09,944 --> 00:38:12,143
Yeah, I suppose you could say I did,
yes.
522
00:38:12,144 --> 00:38:13,823
I'm sure I did.
523
00:38:13,824 --> 00:38:17,623
I was like a little girl
in front of him the whole time.
524
00:38:17,624 --> 00:38:20,384
Desperate for praise. Desperate.
525
00:38:27,504 --> 00:38:28,823
It all got so difficult,
526
00:38:28,824 --> 00:38:32,263
and people got so jealous and bitchy
in this house,
527
00:38:32,264 --> 00:38:34,823
and eventually he had to go.
528
00:38:34,824 --> 00:38:38,064
Three weeks after he left, he was
killed in a motorbike accident.
529
00:38:40,864 --> 00:38:43,464
And he was the greatest friend
I've ever had.
530
00:38:45,784 --> 00:38:47,504
And that was a real killer.
531
00:38:57,384 --> 00:39:00,024
There were two unhappy people
in the marriage.
532
00:39:03,544 --> 00:39:06,424
In a letter a year later,
Charles told a friend...
533
00:39:07,584 --> 00:39:11,864
"I'm in a kind of cage, pacing up and
down and longing to be free.
534
00:39:15,064 --> 00:39:17,544
"How awful incompatibility is...
535
00:39:18,544 --> 00:39:20,623
"...and how dreadfully destructive
it can be
536
00:39:20,624 --> 00:39:23,784
"for the players in this
extraordinary drama.
537
00:39:25,504 --> 00:39:28,984
"It has all the ingredients
of a Greek tragedy."
538
00:39:32,384 --> 00:39:34,903
Friends...
539
00:39:34,904 --> 00:39:38,183
on my husband's side were
indicating that I was...
540
00:39:38,184 --> 00:39:39,264
unstable...
541
00:39:41,024 --> 00:39:43,304
...sick, and should be...
542
00:39:44,904 --> 00:39:48,304
...put in a home of some sort
in order to get better.
543
00:39:59,024 --> 00:40:02,544
There's no better way
to dismantle a personality...
544
00:40:05,024 --> 00:40:06,424
...than to isolate it.
545
00:40:23,326 --> 00:40:26,445
A mysterious
brain disease has spread
546
00:40:26,446 --> 00:40:27,685
to more than 50 herds
547
00:40:27,686 --> 00:40:28,926
in 14 counties.
548
00:40:31,166 --> 00:40:34,445
BSE, as the disease is known,
kills them.
549
00:40:34,446 --> 00:40:38,645
Scientists don't know what's
causing it or where it came from,
550
00:40:38,646 --> 00:40:40,605
but they are worried.
551
00:40:40,606 --> 00:40:42,606
It is the mid-'80s.
552
00:40:44,166 --> 00:40:47,366
A kind of darkness has fallen
on the green and pleasant land.
553
00:40:49,446 --> 00:40:52,645
There is division in the ruling
House of Windsor.
554
00:40:52,646 --> 00:40:56,165
The countryside is infected by BSE,
555
00:40:56,166 --> 00:41:01,646
and in the cities, there is
a new, more sinister illness.
556
00:41:14,646 --> 00:41:18,245
My view of the royal family
before I went to work for them,
557
00:41:18,246 --> 00:41:23,445
like most people of my age,
I'd go into the monarchist camp.
558
00:41:23,446 --> 00:41:26,805
You know,
it was a pretty good institution.
559
00:41:26,806 --> 00:41:28,846
Good for Great Britain.
560
00:41:30,686 --> 00:41:35,926
Then suddenly, you jump inside
this box of royal magic...
561
00:41:38,086 --> 00:41:40,765
...and you find out
how these tricks work.
562
00:41:40,766 --> 00:41:44,645
And the kudos of who these people are
563
00:41:44,646 --> 00:41:47,045
wears off
564
00:41:47,046 --> 00:41:48,966
pretty damn quick.
565
00:41:53,726 --> 00:41:55,685
In 1986,
566
00:41:55,686 --> 00:41:59,446
Ken Wharfe joined the staff
of the Prince of Wales.
567
00:42:03,686 --> 00:42:06,085
He would soon succeed Barry Mannakee
568
00:42:06,086 --> 00:42:08,926
as Princess Diana's
royal protection officer.
569
00:42:11,966 --> 00:42:14,245
Diana said, "What do you want
to drink?"
570
00:42:14,246 --> 00:42:17,766
It was almost like being at a wine
bar in Kensington with a friend.
571
00:42:19,046 --> 00:42:22,845
Immediately, she said, "Do you know
about Camilla Parker Bowles?"
572
00:42:22,846 --> 00:42:25,605
Well, I couldn't deny
that I knew about it,
573
00:42:25,606 --> 00:42:27,565
because I'd been forewarned about it.
574
00:42:27,566 --> 00:42:29,005
I said, "Yes, of course."
575
00:42:29,006 --> 00:42:31,925
And there was a hesitation there,
576
00:42:31,926 --> 00:42:36,885
and she said, "Well, she features
most days,
577
00:42:36,886 --> 00:42:39,006
"most hours and minutes of my life."
578
00:42:40,046 --> 00:42:45,245
I didn't really understand at
that point exactly what she meant
579
00:42:45,246 --> 00:42:48,685
but, of course, the days that
followed, the weeks that followed,
580
00:42:48,686 --> 00:42:53,246
the months that followed, I knew
exactly what she meant by that.
581
00:42:54,486 --> 00:42:56,685
She sort of carried out
her own research
582
00:42:56,686 --> 00:43:01,005
and found that previous Prince of
Waleses had their own mistresses.
583
00:43:01,006 --> 00:43:02,605
I remembering saying to my husband,
584
00:43:02,606 --> 00:43:04,525
you know,
"Why, why is this lady around?"
585
00:43:04,526 --> 00:43:06,965
And he said, "Well,
I refuse to be the Prince of Wales
586
00:43:06,966 --> 00:43:08,366
"who never had a mistress."
587
00:43:10,166 --> 00:43:14,605
This was the 20th century,
moving into the 21st century,
588
00:43:14,606 --> 00:43:17,125
and she wasn't prepared to accept that.
589
00:43:17,126 --> 00:43:18,645
I think she'd much prefer
590
00:43:18,646 --> 00:43:21,206
that Camilla Parker Bowles
would just disappear.
591
00:43:22,566 --> 00:43:24,726
There was a genuine unhappiness here.
592
00:43:26,806 --> 00:43:31,005
My father-in-law said to my husband,
"If your marriage doesn't work out,
593
00:43:31,006 --> 00:43:33,645
"you can always go back to her
after five years,"
594
00:43:33,646 --> 00:43:35,085
which is exactly... I mean,
595
00:43:35,086 --> 00:43:37,245
for real, I knew that would happen
after five,
596
00:43:37,246 --> 00:43:39,325
I knew something was happening
before that,
597
00:43:39,326 --> 00:43:42,445
but the fifth year, I had confirmation.
598
00:43:42,446 --> 00:43:45,039
So I went to the top lady, sobbing,
599
00:43:45,064 --> 00:43:47,725
and I said, "What do I do?
I'm coming to you, what do I do?"
600
00:43:47,726 --> 00:43:49,845
And she said,
"I don't know what you should do.
601
00:43:49,846 --> 00:43:51,925
"Charles is hopeless."
And that was it.
602
00:43:51,926 --> 00:43:53,313
That was help.
603
00:43:53,338 --> 00:43:55,845
People were saying that she's mad.
604
00:43:55,846 --> 00:44:01,525
You know, 20 years on, they are
still telling her that she's mad,
605
00:44:01,526 --> 00:44:05,365
but the fact of it is that here was
a case of a woman trying to come
606
00:44:05,366 --> 00:44:08,445
to terms with the fact that her
husband was in a relationship
607
00:44:08,446 --> 00:44:11,646
and having an affair with another
woman, it is as simple as that.
608
00:44:13,526 --> 00:44:15,046
It is that simple.
609
00:44:30,366 --> 00:44:31,765
For the first time,
610
00:44:31,766 --> 00:44:35,285
doctors from all over Britain
have met to discuss AIDS,
611
00:44:35,286 --> 00:44:39,765
the disease that has already claimed
over 600 lives in the United States.
612
00:44:39,766 --> 00:44:43,245
Junior health minister Edwina Currie
has said good Christian people
613
00:44:43,246 --> 00:44:46,645
who didn't misbehave
wouldn't catch the disease.
614
00:44:46,646 --> 00:44:48,205
She advised businessmen...
615
00:44:48,206 --> 00:44:52,005
Then I found myself being
more and more involved with people
616
00:44:52,006 --> 00:44:55,206
who were rejected by society.
617
00:44:59,726 --> 00:45:01,446
I found an affinity there.
618
00:45:06,806 --> 00:45:10,005
I respected very much
the honesty I found on that level
619
00:45:10,006 --> 00:45:11,526
with people I met.
620
00:45:14,766 --> 00:45:18,166
When I used to sit on hospital beds
and hold people's hands...
621
00:45:19,406 --> 00:45:24,766
...when I saw the reassurance
that gave, I did it everywhere.
622
00:45:30,966 --> 00:45:33,406
What she really liked
was to sit on the bed.
623
00:45:34,926 --> 00:45:36,406
Very informal.
624
00:45:38,966 --> 00:45:42,286
These were all people
who were probably going to die.
625
00:45:44,606 --> 00:45:47,406
Patrick Jephson was
Diana's Private Secretary.
626
00:45:48,646 --> 00:45:51,565
Cambridge, the Royal Navy -
627
00:45:51,566 --> 00:45:54,405
off and on, his ancestors had served
the royal family
628
00:45:54,406 --> 00:45:56,485
for hundreds of years.
629
00:45:56,486 --> 00:46:00,205
He was a monarchist, eager to please,
630
00:46:00,206 --> 00:46:02,766
perfectly cut out for the royal court.
631
00:46:05,486 --> 00:46:09,005
Just knowing that she was needed,
632
00:46:09,006 --> 00:46:12,765
that what she was doing was worthwhile,
633
00:46:12,766 --> 00:46:16,126
gave her a great sense
of fulfilment, I think.
634
00:46:19,206 --> 00:46:24,205
Because a lot of the time she
felt excluded - real or imagined -
635
00:46:24,206 --> 00:46:28,245
from the Royal mainstream
and from a kind of
636
00:46:28,246 --> 00:46:32,406
happy family life
that she had wanted for herself.
637
00:46:35,086 --> 00:46:39,245
When people are dying, they
are much more open, more vulnerable,
638
00:46:39,246 --> 00:46:42,485
much more real than other people.
639
00:46:42,486 --> 00:46:44,326
And I appreciated that.
640
00:46:45,606 --> 00:46:49,286
And I love being with people.
641
00:46:52,046 --> 00:46:55,685
So, after a day of working in wards
like this,
642
00:46:55,686 --> 00:46:58,885
we'd take her back to the Palace,
643
00:46:58,886 --> 00:47:01,605
where I knew there was nobody
waiting to welcome her
644
00:47:01,606 --> 00:47:05,606
or say, "How did it go?"
or, "Well done."
645
00:47:11,286 --> 00:47:13,765
So, increasingly, this sort of work
646
00:47:13,766 --> 00:47:17,446
became more and more important to her.
647
00:47:24,766 --> 00:47:26,726
It was the summer of 1986.
648
00:47:28,646 --> 00:47:31,645
With one fairy-tale marriage
falling apart,
649
00:47:31,646 --> 00:47:33,646
another one was about to begin.
650
00:47:36,166 --> 00:47:38,166
It had all the necessary ingredients.
651
00:47:40,526 --> 00:47:42,485
A young prince,
652
00:47:42,486 --> 00:47:44,605
a carriage,
653
00:47:44,606 --> 00:47:46,245
a bride,
654
00:47:46,246 --> 00:47:47,246
a dress...
655
00:47:50,726 --> 00:47:53,965
...a familiar voice from the BBC.
656
00:47:53,966 --> 00:47:56,405
This wonderful day
here in London,
657
00:47:56,406 --> 00:48:00,485
all the marvellous pageantry
and ceremonial...
658
00:48:00,486 --> 00:48:03,686
Once again, the Royal show was
well and truly on the road.
659
00:48:05,246 --> 00:48:07,965
But very few of those present
understood
660
00:48:07,966 --> 00:48:10,725
what was happening before their eyes.
661
00:48:10,726 --> 00:48:13,285
I'm joined now
by Captain James Hewitt -
662
00:48:13,286 --> 00:48:15,125
he's the right-hand man
to the Brigadier
663
00:48:15,126 --> 00:48:17,365
who's organised this entire procession,
664
00:48:17,366 --> 00:48:19,805
and I think your very presence here
this very morning means
665
00:48:19,806 --> 00:48:21,325
you're confident, you're relaxed,
666
00:48:21,326 --> 00:48:23,605
that everything is going to plan
behind the scenes.
667
00:48:23,606 --> 00:48:25,245
Is that right? Well, I hope so.
668
00:48:25,246 --> 00:48:27,085
Last time I left the scene,
669
00:48:27,086 --> 00:48:29,126
everything was running quite smoothly.
670
00:48:30,366 --> 00:48:32,525
The same crowds,
671
00:48:32,526 --> 00:48:34,406
the same waves from the balcony.
672
00:48:37,286 --> 00:48:38,606
The same kiss.
673
00:48:40,966 --> 00:48:45,645
It's hard now not to think that when
Sarah Ferguson married HER Prince,
674
00:48:45,646 --> 00:48:48,966
the House of Windsor
was not tempting fate.
675
00:48:53,606 --> 00:48:56,606
No-one knew then what we know now.
676
00:48:58,126 --> 00:49:00,206
Charles was with Camilla.
677
00:49:01,726 --> 00:49:05,446
Now, Diana was involved
with a Captain of the Guard.
678
00:49:06,926 --> 00:49:10,725
For the Royal House of Windsor,
the royal family,
679
00:49:10,726 --> 00:49:12,085
this was not the direction
680
00:49:12,086 --> 00:49:14,646
the golden coaches were supposed
to be headed.
681
00:49:23,006 --> 00:49:28,045
Going to work for the Prince
and the Princess in the late 1980s
682
00:49:28,046 --> 00:49:32,525
meant becoming part of an organisation
683
00:49:32,526 --> 00:49:36,086
that had as its number one priority...
684
00:49:38,726 --> 00:49:43,846
...keeping quiet about the fact that
this was a marriage in name only.
685
00:49:47,086 --> 00:49:51,205
There were virtually no sexual
relations with you and Charles?
686
00:49:51,206 --> 00:49:53,285
Sort of once every three weeks.
687
00:49:53,286 --> 00:49:56,726
And then it fizzled out about
seven years ago, six years ago.
688
00:49:59,806 --> 00:50:04,485
The number-one priority
was to maintain
689
00:50:04,486 --> 00:50:06,526
what turned out to be a lie.
690
00:50:09,966 --> 00:50:12,445
She was saying,
"Why aren't you with us?
691
00:50:12,446 --> 00:50:14,206
"Why don't you want to be with us?"
692
00:50:17,006 --> 00:50:19,086
Clearly, there was something amiss.
693
00:50:21,886 --> 00:50:27,125
She actually loved her husband
and I think even despite Camilla,
694
00:50:27,126 --> 00:50:30,885
she was prepared to play
this double act,
695
00:50:30,886 --> 00:50:33,566
being dishonest with her husband.
696
00:50:39,166 --> 00:50:43,365
But the trouble was, being asked
to maintain that facade distanced us
697
00:50:43,366 --> 00:50:47,285
from the true principles
of decent behaviour,
698
00:50:47,286 --> 00:50:48,686
of monarchy.
699
00:50:52,646 --> 00:50:58,086
The cover-up had to be damaging
for the Crown itself.
700
00:51:07,788 --> 00:51:09,508
Camilla's sister's birthday.
701
00:51:11,268 --> 00:51:13,427
I could hear Diana shouting my name.
702
00:51:13,428 --> 00:51:15,787
She said,
"Ken, I can't find my husband,
703
00:51:15,788 --> 00:51:18,028
"and I can't see Camilla, either."
704
00:51:19,188 --> 00:51:21,347
Anyway, it was a nursery, I remember.
705
00:51:21,348 --> 00:51:26,788
And there was Charles and Camilla,
sat on this small sofa, talking.
706
00:51:28,028 --> 00:51:32,267
And I don't know where Diana
just managed to conjure up
707
00:51:32,268 --> 00:51:34,387
this confidence...
708
00:51:34,388 --> 00:51:37,748
but literally walked across,
and just...
709
00:51:38,628 --> 00:51:40,267
...calmly said to Camilla,
710
00:51:40,268 --> 00:51:43,308
who I dare say was completely
shocked by this, although...
711
00:51:44,468 --> 00:51:46,467
...thinking about it,
must have expected
712
00:51:46,468 --> 00:51:50,627
that she would have noticed
they weren't in this room.
713
00:51:50,628 --> 00:51:51,907
And she said,
714
00:51:51,908 --> 00:51:54,828
"Look... I know what's going on."
715
00:51:55,788 --> 00:51:58,507
You know, "I understand that,
716
00:51:58,508 --> 00:52:00,908
"so don't, sort of, treat me
like an idiot."
717
00:52:02,188 --> 00:52:05,507
And Camilla said
something really unusual,
718
00:52:05,508 --> 00:52:08,147
and said, "Well, it's all right
for you, Diana -
719
00:52:08,148 --> 00:52:10,987
"you've got two wonderful boys."
720
00:52:10,988 --> 00:52:13,907
Now, you can make of that
what you like.
721
00:52:13,908 --> 00:52:15,308
I've never understood it.
722
00:52:16,508 --> 00:52:21,387
But suddenly, this was an awakening,
because Diana knew at this point,
723
00:52:21,388 --> 00:52:26,147
there was no hope or any chance
of a reconciliation.
724
00:52:26,148 --> 00:52:28,267
So, this had taken nearly...
725
00:52:28,268 --> 00:52:30,987
eight, nine years to reach this point,
726
00:52:30,988 --> 00:52:35,628
but, in her eyes, had proved
that this meeting, this liaison...
727
00:52:36,628 --> 00:52:40,707
...was never going to break up,
and was never going to bring about
728
00:52:40,708 --> 00:52:43,387
a satisfactory relationship
in her eyes.
729
00:52:43,388 --> 00:52:45,787
This was the beginning of the end.
730
00:52:45,788 --> 00:52:48,668
I'm trying to cut my...
My own... path.
731
00:53:08,828 --> 00:53:11,508
And so Diana cut her own path.
732
00:53:14,348 --> 00:53:16,388
Gone now was the chubby Sloane Ranger.
733
00:53:19,508 --> 00:53:20,908
This was a new Diana.
734
00:53:24,908 --> 00:53:27,748
The People's Princess in the making.
735
00:53:28,628 --> 00:53:31,388
Independent, modern...
736
00:53:33,188 --> 00:53:34,868
...even flirtatious.
737
00:53:42,868 --> 00:53:44,748
Not everyone was pleased.
738
00:53:45,988 --> 00:53:48,348
There was a great deal of jealousy...
739
00:53:49,348 --> 00:53:52,347
...from the grey men who sat behind
Prince Charles,
740
00:53:52,348 --> 00:53:56,187
not wanting him to be
living in her shadow.
741
00:53:56,188 --> 00:53:59,508
Her character was being written down...
742
00:54:00,988 --> 00:54:04,388
...as she saw it, as a campaign
to sideline her...
743
00:54:06,628 --> 00:54:09,468
...and remove her from the boys.
744
00:54:12,548 --> 00:54:15,147
That was her worry, was that
she was going to lose the boys.
745
00:54:15,148 --> 00:54:18,267
Overriding, above everything else,
that was the concern,
746
00:54:18,268 --> 00:54:22,907
and that they were using
a character run-down
747
00:54:22,908 --> 00:54:26,027
as a means of enabling that
to happen, or even making it
748
00:54:26,028 --> 00:54:29,668
the absolutely logical
and understandable next step.
749
00:54:31,508 --> 00:54:33,108
And she told you this? Yes.
750
00:54:45,068 --> 00:54:47,827
1992, November.
751
00:54:47,828 --> 00:54:50,308
Windsor Castle is engulfed in flames.
752
00:54:51,508 --> 00:54:55,267
To some, it seemed like a kind of
divine judgment.
753
00:54:55,268 --> 00:54:59,787
The home of the Windsor dynasty,
its most potent symbol,
754
00:54:59,788 --> 00:55:02,747
like so much else about the monarchy,
755
00:55:02,748 --> 00:55:04,427
was crumbling into dust.
756
00:55:04,428 --> 00:55:08,868
"God Save The Queen"
757
00:55:14,148 --> 00:55:18,828
1992 was the 40th anniversary of
the Queen's accession to the throne.
758
00:55:20,108 --> 00:55:21,748
It had not been a happy year...
759
00:55:22,988 --> 00:55:26,547
...and in a speech she gave to the
Guildhall in the City of London,
760
00:55:26,548 --> 00:55:29,948
there was a note in her voice
that we'd never heard before.
761
00:55:38,348 --> 00:55:40,227
1992...
762
00:55:40,228 --> 00:55:45,988
is not a year on which I shall
look back with undiluted pleasure.
763
00:55:48,148 --> 00:55:52,627
In the words of one of my more
sympathetic correspondents,
764
00:55:52,628 --> 00:55:56,708
"It has turned out
to be an annus horribilis."
765
00:55:58,868 --> 00:56:02,627
In the aftermath of Friday's
tragic fire at Windsor,
766
00:56:02,628 --> 00:56:04,908
it is especially so.
767
00:56:06,548 --> 00:56:09,227
They're the pictures
they didn't want you to see.
768
00:56:09,228 --> 00:56:14,467
Looking at today's pages
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 12, 13,
769
00:56:14,468 --> 00:56:17,507
20 and 21, it's easy to see why.
770
00:56:17,508 --> 00:56:23,147
I, like Queen Victoria, have always
been a believer in that old maxim -
771
00:56:23,148 --> 00:56:25,787
moderation in all things.
772
00:56:25,788 --> 00:56:29,787
The pictures show them in
a clearly affectionate mood.
773
00:56:29,788 --> 00:56:33,628
It is possible to have
too much of a good thing.
774
00:56:36,428 --> 00:56:39,227
There have been rumours,
there have been denials.
775
00:56:39,228 --> 00:56:41,147
Now I'll tell you what I know.
776
00:56:41,148 --> 00:56:42,907
A book due to go on sale tomorrow
777
00:56:42,908 --> 00:56:45,588
claims she made several attempts
on her life.
778
00:56:47,068 --> 00:56:49,187
We do face a crisis
in the House of Windsor.
779
00:56:49,188 --> 00:56:50,507
It's obvious to everyone.
780
00:56:50,508 --> 00:56:53,587
I sometimes wonder
how future generations
781
00:56:53,588 --> 00:56:57,028
will judge the events
of this tumultuous year.
782
00:56:59,348 --> 00:57:03,228
There is chronic instability
inside the royal family.
783
00:57:05,548 --> 00:57:08,627
Her body language suggesting
a marriage in deep trouble.
784
00:57:08,628 --> 00:57:12,707
She does one thing on her own,
he does another,
785
00:57:12,708 --> 00:57:16,067
and they just don't meet physically,
mentally,
786
00:57:16,068 --> 00:57:17,388
or emotionally.
787
00:57:21,468 --> 00:57:23,387
"How much longer can
this tragedy go on?",
788
00:57:23,388 --> 00:57:25,468
howled the Daily Mirror this morning.
789
00:57:50,468 --> 00:57:53,748
The number of BSE cases still rising.
790
00:57:54,988 --> 00:57:57,067
And, really, the only thing
you can do is,
791
00:57:57,068 --> 00:57:59,468
the beast must go for slaughter.
792
00:58:06,748 --> 00:58:09,628
December, 1992.
793
00:58:11,588 --> 00:58:13,707
Two weeks after the Queen's speech,
794
00:58:13,708 --> 00:58:15,187
it was officially announced
795
00:58:15,188 --> 00:58:19,108
that Diana and Prince Charles
had decided to separate.
796
00:58:48,508 --> 00:58:51,347
I remember at the time...
797
00:58:51,348 --> 00:58:53,468
there was a mixture of relief...
798
00:58:54,588 --> 00:58:57,507
...because we no longer
had to pretend,
799
00:58:57,508 --> 00:59:00,388
and we no longer had to maintain
that fiction.
800
00:59:02,188 --> 00:59:03,668
But, at the same time...
801
00:59:05,148 --> 00:59:09,067
...we were always conscious
that there was a big, silent,
802
00:59:09,068 --> 00:59:12,828
rather threatening presence...
803
00:59:14,068 --> 00:59:17,828
...that told us, certainly told me...
804
00:59:19,708 --> 00:59:22,308
...that the Princess
wasn't really wanted any more.
805
00:59:26,908 --> 00:59:30,748
Everything changed
after we separated.
806
00:59:34,068 --> 00:59:37,108
Life became very difficult then for me.
807
00:59:40,908 --> 00:59:43,428
People's agendas changed overnight.
808
00:59:44,708 --> 00:59:47,867
I was a problem. I was a liability.
809
00:59:47,868 --> 00:59:49,708
"How are we going to deal with her?"
810
00:59:53,468 --> 00:59:55,707
It became a condition
of your patriotism
811
00:59:55,708 --> 00:59:58,748
that you must therefore support
the Prince of Wales.
812
00:59:59,908 --> 01:00:02,867
The belief that,
if we were loyal monarchists,
813
01:00:02,868 --> 01:00:04,427
we HAD to be on his side.
814
01:00:04,428 --> 01:00:06,947
Well, I'm sorry, as a loyal monarchist,
815
01:00:06,948 --> 01:00:11,227
my loyalty was to the principles
of the British Crown,
816
01:00:11,228 --> 01:00:17,267
and I saw royal virtues
embodied in her more than in him.
817
01:00:17,268 --> 01:00:18,787
But I think the real damage was done
818
01:00:18,788 --> 01:00:21,707
by those who tried to marginalise her,
819
01:00:21,708 --> 01:00:26,108
or, in more recent years, airbrush
Diana out of royal history.
820
01:00:29,148 --> 01:00:31,547
They saw...
821
01:00:31,548 --> 01:00:37,107
that their man's path to the crown
would be a great deal easier
822
01:00:37,108 --> 01:00:42,228
if he were not competing
for popularity with his ex-wife.
823
01:00:45,268 --> 01:00:48,788
Every strong woman in history
has had to walk down a similar path.
824
01:00:50,788 --> 01:00:53,508
It's the strength that causes the fear.
825
01:00:55,228 --> 01:00:56,788
"Why is she strong?"
826
01:00:58,468 --> 01:01:00,907
"Where does she get it from?"
827
01:01:00,908 --> 01:01:02,148
"Where is she taking it?"
828
01:01:04,068 --> 01:01:06,068
"Where is she going to use it?"
829
01:01:08,788 --> 01:01:10,588
I'll fight till the end.
830
01:01:18,962 --> 01:01:20,242
1993.
831
01:01:21,922 --> 01:01:25,242
The lines of battle have become
clearer.
832
01:01:27,562 --> 01:01:29,641
There is a Charles camp.
833
01:01:29,642 --> 01:01:31,322
There is a Diana camp.
834
01:01:33,562 --> 01:01:37,202
Behind Charles, all the ancient
power of the royal court.
835
01:01:38,642 --> 01:01:41,842
But, for Diana, power lay in
the court of public opinion.
836
01:01:42,882 --> 01:01:47,441
To strengthen her advantage, she was
taking lessons with a speech coach.
837
01:01:47,442 --> 01:01:49,441
Can I watch?
838
01:01:49,442 --> 01:01:51,521
If you come in here,
you sit down and be quiet.
839
01:01:51,522 --> 01:01:53,521
You've got to be very quiet.
Very quiet.
840
01:01:56,402 --> 01:01:58,602
Don't touch it, William,
cos it's all focused on me.
841
01:02:01,962 --> 01:02:03,881
OK, let's pretend, right?
842
01:02:03,882 --> 01:02:06,841
OK, so, your Royal Highness,
843
01:02:06,842 --> 01:02:10,121
you're currently concentrating
very much on your charity work.
844
01:02:10,122 --> 01:02:13,161
Would you like to tell us why you
feel it's so important to you?
845
01:02:13,162 --> 01:02:15,601
I've got
nothing else to do!
846
01:02:18,002 --> 01:02:21,121
She's awful! It's still recording.
Sorry.
847
01:02:21,122 --> 01:02:23,762
Take two! Just record the lot.
848
01:02:25,922 --> 01:02:29,441
Go back. Go back to the top now.
Cos this is...
849
01:02:29,442 --> 01:02:33,201
Number one? "She had been abandoned
by her family,
850
01:02:33,202 --> 01:02:37,761
"having become
a huge embarrassment and disgrace.
851
01:02:37,762 --> 01:02:42,081
"Each person is born with
individual qualities and potential."
852
01:02:42,082 --> 01:02:43,761
Slightly faster now.
853
01:02:43,762 --> 01:02:45,601
Let's move on. Yes.
854
01:02:45,602 --> 01:02:46,802
Only slightly.
855
01:02:48,082 --> 01:02:50,001
Get a little angry now, with that.
856
01:02:50,002 --> 01:02:51,801
I can't be angry and speak like that.
857
01:02:51,802 --> 01:02:54,361
Yes, you can! I can't get
my words out. I'm so tired.
858
01:02:54,362 --> 01:02:56,481
When am I going to see you
when you're not tired?
859
01:02:56,482 --> 01:02:57,641
In the mornings.
860
01:02:57,642 --> 01:02:58,922
"Ladies and gentlemen."
861
01:03:00,082 --> 01:03:01,082
More energy.
862
01:03:02,162 --> 01:03:03,602
There's a lovely chunk in there.
863
01:03:05,002 --> 01:03:06,722
You were pushing the thing out...
864
01:03:07,762 --> 01:03:09,442
...and it started to come from you.
865
01:03:11,042 --> 01:03:12,602
That's what...
866
01:03:13,762 --> 01:03:17,801
...connects you.
And see who we're after.
867
01:03:17,802 --> 01:03:19,161
I'm not manufacturing you,
868
01:03:19,162 --> 01:03:25,041
I'm just bringing out
that bit of you that wants a voice,
869
01:03:25,042 --> 01:03:27,361
which is the 30-year-old woman...
870
01:03:27,362 --> 01:03:31,281
31. 31-year-old woman
871
01:03:31,282 --> 01:03:34,162
who has something important to say.
872
01:03:35,362 --> 01:03:37,841
You've got a voice
that people want to hear,
873
01:03:37,842 --> 01:03:39,561
and you're telling the story.
874
01:03:39,562 --> 01:03:40,602
You're a storyteller.
875
01:03:42,722 --> 01:03:45,241
And the quality you have,
which they haven't got,
876
01:03:45,242 --> 01:03:47,521
is that you talk to them from the guts.
877
01:03:47,522 --> 01:03:49,481
You know, a person of the people.
878
01:03:49,482 --> 01:03:51,521
They're scared of that,
879
01:03:51,522 --> 01:03:53,002
so let's not lose it.
880
01:03:55,762 --> 01:03:58,681
Diana had no intention of
losing that special quality
881
01:03:58,682 --> 01:04:00,962
that her husband's camp was scared of.
882
01:04:02,682 --> 01:04:09,282
The British people need someone
in public life to give affection.
883
01:04:12,242 --> 01:04:14,921
I can give love...
884
01:04:14,922 --> 01:04:19,201
for half an hour,
for a day, or a month.
885
01:04:19,202 --> 01:04:20,282
But I can give.
886
01:04:22,042 --> 01:04:23,162
I know I can.
887
01:04:26,322 --> 01:04:27,922
Everything is so vivid.
888
01:04:29,362 --> 01:04:30,922
Stunningly beautiful.
889
01:04:34,642 --> 01:04:37,042
I just remember her walking in...
890
01:04:38,162 --> 01:04:40,122
...in a striking orange outfit.
891
01:04:44,642 --> 01:04:46,482
This beautiful lady.
892
01:04:49,242 --> 01:04:50,842
I just remember feeling...
893
01:04:52,522 --> 01:04:55,202
...that day that I could have
achieved anything.
894
01:04:57,322 --> 01:05:00,322
I know that that day changed my life.
895
01:05:05,722 --> 01:05:07,361
This was where we were, wasn't it,
896
01:05:07,362 --> 01:05:09,281
when we were waiting for her?
897
01:05:09,282 --> 01:05:12,362
We were in that room over there.
Yeah. Went in with her.
898
01:05:13,722 --> 01:05:15,761
And then she came round that corner,
899
01:05:15,762 --> 01:05:17,762
when we were least expecting it.
900
01:05:20,122 --> 01:05:24,042
She was just so warm and...
901
01:05:25,522 --> 01:05:27,521
...it was like
902
01:05:27,522 --> 01:05:31,161
just having a chat with a friend.
903
01:05:31,162 --> 01:05:36,481
She related myself and my sister
to William and Harry,
904
01:05:36,482 --> 01:05:39,441
which was quite surreal.
905
01:05:39,442 --> 01:05:43,562
It was as if you'd known her
for a long time.
906
01:05:45,322 --> 01:05:49,001
Press were not allowed into
the room where Gemma met Diana.
907
01:05:49,002 --> 01:05:51,281
Only one photograph exists -
908
01:05:51,282 --> 01:05:54,161
a paralysed 11-year-old
from Liverpool
909
01:05:54,162 --> 01:05:58,042
and a princess who had now become
the most famous woman in the world.
910
01:05:59,082 --> 01:06:02,882
She was the most genuine person
I've ever met.
911
01:06:03,842 --> 01:06:05,801
She just oozed it.
912
01:06:05,802 --> 01:06:10,841
You could tell straightaway
that she was genuinely interested,
913
01:06:10,842 --> 01:06:12,322
she genuinely cared.
914
01:06:13,722 --> 01:06:18,761
Even now, I still can look back
on that meeting
915
01:06:18,762 --> 01:06:21,601
and it helps me get through.
916
01:06:21,602 --> 01:06:25,841
I don't think there's another human
being who could have such an impact
917
01:06:25,842 --> 01:06:27,922
in such a short space of time.
918
01:06:31,522 --> 01:06:34,161
She understood personal struggle
919
01:06:34,162 --> 01:06:39,201
and she'd been through her own
trials and tests in life,
920
01:06:39,202 --> 01:06:41,521
and I think she could relate to
921
01:06:41,522 --> 01:06:44,202
people going through their own
personal battles.
922
01:06:49,922 --> 01:06:53,161
The establishment
that I'm married into,
923
01:06:53,162 --> 01:06:56,002
they see me as a threat of some kind...
924
01:06:59,522 --> 01:07:02,162
...because I lead from the heart,
not the head...
925
01:07:06,682 --> 01:07:09,922
...because I do things differently,
because I don't go by a rule book.
926
01:07:19,162 --> 01:07:22,002
For Charles, the threat was real.
927
01:07:23,442 --> 01:07:26,322
People were beginning to ask
whether he'd become king after all.
928
01:07:29,642 --> 01:07:33,482
In 1994, in a documentary
with Jonathan Dimbleby...
929
01:07:34,842 --> 01:07:36,642
...he decided to go on the offensive.
930
01:07:39,122 --> 01:07:44,881
The most damaging charge that is
made in relation to your marriage
931
01:07:44,882 --> 01:07:46,081
is that you were,
932
01:07:46,082 --> 01:07:50,321
because of your relationship
with Camilla Parker Bowles,
933
01:07:50,322 --> 01:07:55,801
from the beginning, persistently
unfaithful to your wife
934
01:07:55,802 --> 01:07:58,761
and thus caused the breakdown.
935
01:07:58,762 --> 01:08:03,762
What is your response
to that persistent criticism?
936
01:08:06,202 --> 01:08:09,761
That's the persistent criticism, is it?
937
01:08:11,882 --> 01:08:13,002
Erm...
938
01:08:15,042 --> 01:08:16,241
Erm...
939
01:08:16,242 --> 01:08:17,642
Mrs Parker Bowles is...
940
01:08:18,922 --> 01:08:20,281
...a great friend of mine.
941
01:08:20,282 --> 01:08:24,321
I have a large number of friends
that I'm terribly lucky to have.
942
01:08:24,322 --> 01:08:25,482
So many friends.
943
01:08:26,562 --> 01:08:29,161
She has been a friend
for a very long time
944
01:08:29,162 --> 01:08:32,601
and will continue to be a friend
for a very long time.
945
01:08:32,602 --> 01:08:33,882
That's what friends are for.
946
01:08:36,042 --> 01:08:40,321
Were you faithful
and honourable to your wife
947
01:08:40,322 --> 01:08:43,161
when you took on the vow of marriage?
948
01:08:43,162 --> 01:08:45,162
Yes. Absolutely.
949
01:08:49,122 --> 01:08:50,682
And you were? Yes...
950
01:08:53,562 --> 01:08:57,642
...until it became
irretrievably broken down...
951
01:08:59,522 --> 01:09:00,682
...us both having tried.
952
01:09:12,002 --> 01:09:16,081
Diana saw Charles' interview
and the book that followed
953
01:09:16,082 --> 01:09:17,802
as hurtful and damaging.
954
01:09:19,962 --> 01:09:24,161
She was on the receiving end
of a whispering campaign
955
01:09:24,162 --> 01:09:27,681
in which everything from
her competence as a princess,
956
01:09:27,682 --> 01:09:29,281
to her suitability as a mother,
957
01:09:29,282 --> 01:09:32,442
and indeed her very sanity,
were being questioned.
958
01:09:34,282 --> 01:09:39,081
She was faced with a choice of
either meekly turning a deaf ear
959
01:09:39,082 --> 01:09:41,161
to what was being said about her,
960
01:09:41,162 --> 01:09:44,441
to falling in with the plans of people
961
01:09:44,442 --> 01:09:47,881
who wanted to see her
excluded, marginalised,
962
01:09:47,882 --> 01:09:49,482
or doing something about it.
963
01:09:51,522 --> 01:09:53,601
Whenever she'd felt threatened,
964
01:09:53,602 --> 01:09:56,681
Diana had always followed
the same idea.
965
01:09:56,682 --> 01:10:00,241
She believed that if only people
could hear her real story,
966
01:10:00,242 --> 01:10:02,921
she would always have their support.
967
01:10:02,922 --> 01:10:07,561
In 1992, she had sent for
her old friend James Colthurst,
968
01:10:07,562 --> 01:10:10,281
who secretly smuggled out
the recorded interviews
969
01:10:10,282 --> 01:10:14,042
used by Andrew Morton for
his book, Diana: The True Story.
970
01:10:15,282 --> 01:10:17,361
She was in a corner and she felt it.
971
01:10:17,362 --> 01:10:20,161
And she wanted to explode.
972
01:10:20,162 --> 01:10:23,441
Yes, it was explicit about
the state of the relationship,
973
01:10:23,442 --> 01:10:28,162
but it wasn't nearly as fierce
as we now know it could have been.
974
01:10:29,602 --> 01:10:32,841
Later, there were long nights,
also in secret,
975
01:10:32,842 --> 01:10:35,201
improving her storytelling skills
976
01:10:35,202 --> 01:10:38,521
with her speech coach, Peter Settelen.
977
01:10:40,722 --> 01:10:44,122
No, listen, listen,
you're just having a bad day.
978
01:10:47,682 --> 01:10:50,081
In 1995,
979
01:10:50,082 --> 01:10:53,442
Diana felt her back
against the wall once more.
980
01:10:54,482 --> 01:10:57,201
And on the 5th of November,
Bonfire Night,
981
01:10:57,202 --> 01:11:00,521
she prepared to tell her story again.
982
01:11:00,522 --> 01:11:02,762
This time to BBC's Panorama.
983
01:11:05,722 --> 01:11:07,401
Do you really believe that a campaign
984
01:11:07,402 --> 01:11:10,121
was being waged against you?
Yes, I did, absolutely.
985
01:11:10,122 --> 01:11:11,921
Yeah. Why?
986
01:11:11,922 --> 01:11:14,401
I was a separated wife
of the Prince of Wales.
987
01:11:14,402 --> 01:11:15,841
I was a problem, full stop.
988
01:11:15,842 --> 01:11:18,841
Never happened before -
what do we do with her?
989
01:11:18,842 --> 01:11:21,121
Can't we pack her off
to somewhere quietly,
990
01:11:21,122 --> 01:11:22,681
rather than campaign against her?
991
01:11:22,682 --> 01:11:24,961
She won't go quietly,
that's the problem.
992
01:11:24,962 --> 01:11:27,881
I'll fight to the end,
because I believe
993
01:11:27,882 --> 01:11:29,282
that I have a role to fulfil.
994
01:11:30,682 --> 01:11:32,522
And I've got two children to bring up.
995
01:11:34,522 --> 01:11:35,761
Listen to yourself...
996
01:11:35,762 --> 01:11:39,801
It was not only what Diana said
on Panorama that surprised people,
997
01:11:39,802 --> 01:11:41,801
but the way she said it.
998
01:11:41,802 --> 01:11:43,801
That was the real revelation.
999
01:11:43,802 --> 01:11:45,841
All right. No.
1000
01:11:45,842 --> 01:11:51,481
She chose to fight back in some
pretty unconventional ways.
1001
01:11:51,482 --> 01:11:55,562
She actually was
an extraordinarily strong person.
1002
01:11:57,042 --> 01:11:58,402
We must recognise...
1003
01:11:59,682 --> 01:12:03,282
The people who criticised her
always underestimated her.
1004
01:12:05,722 --> 01:12:09,642
And not least
they underestimated her anger.
1005
01:12:10,802 --> 01:12:12,881
She was a proud, aristocratic woman
1006
01:12:12,882 --> 01:12:14,442
who'd been very badly treated.
1007
01:12:17,242 --> 01:12:19,722
Do you think you'll ever be Queen?
1008
01:12:23,282 --> 01:12:25,361
No, I don't. No.
1009
01:12:25,362 --> 01:12:26,882
Why do you think that?
1010
01:12:28,842 --> 01:12:32,921
I'd like to be a queen of people's
hearts, in people's hearts...
1011
01:12:32,922 --> 01:12:35,962
but I don't see myself being
queen of this country.
1012
01:12:43,042 --> 01:12:46,322
The story of the prince and his
princess was coming to an end.
1013
01:12:47,722 --> 01:12:49,921
22 million viewers of Panorama
1014
01:12:49,922 --> 01:12:53,002
watched it happening before their eyes.
1015
01:12:54,682 --> 01:12:56,522
There was a sense of no going back.
1016
01:12:57,562 --> 01:12:59,322
A sense of bridges being burned.
1017
01:13:01,802 --> 01:13:04,882
Do you think the Prince of Wales
will ever be King?
1018
01:13:05,922 --> 01:13:07,962
I don't think any of us
know the answer to that.
1019
01:13:09,562 --> 01:13:13,281
And obviously it's a question
that's in everybody's head.
1020
01:13:13,282 --> 01:13:16,161
But who knows?
Who knows what fate will produce?
1021
01:13:16,162 --> 01:13:18,362
Who knows what circumstances
will provoke?
1022
01:14:19,972 --> 01:14:22,211
Summer, 1997.
1023
01:14:22,212 --> 01:14:24,732
Ma'am! Ma'am!
1024
01:14:25,932 --> 01:14:29,052
The Prince and his Princess
are divorced.
1025
01:14:30,412 --> 01:14:34,372
Diana will no longer be
the future Queen of England.
1026
01:14:36,172 --> 01:14:38,731
On the 3rd of June,
she arrived at the Albert Hall
1027
01:14:38,732 --> 01:14:41,812
for the English National Ballet's
performance of Swan Lake.
1028
01:14:44,852 --> 01:14:47,251
She would always tell people
who asked her
1029
01:14:47,252 --> 01:14:49,651
that if she hadn't been a princess,
1030
01:14:49,652 --> 01:14:51,732
she would have liked
to have been a dancer.
1031
01:14:54,332 --> 01:14:57,811
Now, she'd come to the ballet
for the last time.
1032
01:18:18,532 --> 01:18:20,931
This is BBC Radio in London.
1033
01:18:20,932 --> 01:18:22,891
According to the French news agency,
1034
01:18:22,892 --> 01:18:26,051
a French government minister has
said within the past few minutes
1035
01:18:26,052 --> 01:18:29,331
that Diana, Princess of Wales,
has died.
1036
01:18:29,332 --> 01:18:32,172
He said she was killed
in a car crash in central Paris.
1037
01:18:33,772 --> 01:18:37,171
I'll repeat that. Diana,
Princess of Wales, has been killed
1038
01:18:37,172 --> 01:18:39,172
in a car crash in the centre of Paris.
1039
01:18:43,092 --> 01:18:46,172
I remember it
coming on breaking news...
1040
01:18:47,212 --> 01:18:50,332
...and it-it was just too much
to even absorb.
1041
01:18:51,972 --> 01:18:55,052
The idea of what had happened.
1042
01:19:04,452 --> 01:19:06,331
I couldn't stop thinking...
1043
01:19:06,332 --> 01:19:08,612
that if only I had still
been protecting her...
1044
01:19:10,452 --> 01:19:13,692
...something like this
would never have happened.
1045
01:19:19,612 --> 01:19:21,412
Her last few months...
1046
01:19:22,412 --> 01:19:26,332
...didn't give me the impression
that she knew where she was going...
1047
01:19:27,772 --> 01:19:30,092
...or how she was
going to get there...
1048
01:19:31,932 --> 01:19:33,972
...or who she was going to go with.
1049
01:19:42,972 --> 01:19:45,532
The crash came through
on the news in Paris...
1050
01:19:46,692 --> 01:19:49,971
...and, strangely enough,
I expected her to call.
1051
01:19:49,972 --> 01:19:53,612
Of course, when she had a crisis,
that's when she'd sometimes call.
1052
01:19:55,852 --> 01:19:57,812
Of course, she wasn't going to call.
1053
01:20:01,172 --> 01:20:02,412
It was an odd feeling.
1054
01:20:05,692 --> 01:20:07,612
The sense of the fate.
1055
01:20:18,612 --> 01:20:23,612
Dekalog V Part One
by Zbigniew Preisner
1056
01:20:25,292 --> 01:20:28,812
Diana sadly dies in a tragic
road accident in Paris...
1057
01:20:32,052 --> 01:20:33,332
...and then what happens?
1058
01:20:36,012 --> 01:20:38,972
The Prince of Wales did marry
Camilla Parker Bowles.
1059
01:20:56,052 --> 01:20:59,972
Now, if only Diana
could've been around...
1060
01:21:01,532 --> 01:21:04,731
...she would've said to me,
"You see, Ken?
1061
01:21:04,732 --> 01:21:06,532
"I wasn't wrong, was I?"
1062
01:21:22,732 --> 01:21:28,612
It just felt like such an honour
to be invited to the funeral.
1063
01:21:30,612 --> 01:21:32,612
To lose a person like that...
1064
01:21:33,892 --> 01:21:38,052
...it just makes it even more
precious, the time we had.
1065
01:21:47,532 --> 01:21:48,972
A lot of the things that I...
1066
01:21:50,492 --> 01:21:52,052
...admired about the monarchy...
1067
01:21:53,652 --> 01:21:56,852
...for me, died
with the Princess of Wales.
1068
01:21:58,852 --> 01:22:01,251
And, more than that,
with the way in which
1069
01:22:01,252 --> 01:22:03,052
she was treated before she died.
1070
01:22:04,692 --> 01:22:07,532
That idea of the monarchy
has died for me.
1071
01:22:12,212 --> 01:22:16,091
The idea that respect should be
given unthinkingly,
1072
01:22:16,092 --> 01:22:17,892
or out of blind loyalty...
1073
01:22:21,372 --> 01:22:22,852
...has gone.
1074
01:22:43,812 --> 01:22:45,172
People's emotions...
1075
01:22:48,132 --> 01:22:49,972
...people's hopes and dreams.
1076
01:22:52,892 --> 01:22:54,492
A fairy story...
1077
01:22:56,412 --> 01:22:57,972
...had come to an end.
