00:00made of Tocas and Fisnicas, whose nobles and powers were banished.
00:05However, the monarchy is a challenged empire,
00:08and the orders of the King are still taken very seriously.
00:14Well, the Guardsmen is the highest order of the King in Britain,
00:18and the oldest one as well.
00:21It's a personal honour for anybody.
00:25But what the public does not see
00:27is what happens in the hall surroundings of the throne of the Guardsman,
00:31the dress and the decoration of the past as the new one.
00:33The Guardsman himself has taken the name of this title.
00:36In this case, he is talking about a judge, Mr. Phillips,
00:40the High Judge,
00:42even though he is a member of the Guardsmen,
00:44his party is active.
00:52The monarchy is fixed with the main tradition,
00:55but if this was a title,
00:57if this was the image of a British monarchy,
01:01it would certainly not be as popular as it is today.
01:06In fact, the Guardsmen have always been a challenge for the public opinion,
01:11and for the change of the foundations,
01:13and a challenge to get what they want.
01:18They are on their way to Buckingham Palace
01:20to take part in one of the three parties of the present Fund,
01:23which will be organized next year.
01:25It is terribly exciting,
01:27but we should not show how nervous we are.
01:29The presentation of the new aristocrats,
01:31the debutants,
01:33in a ball that once marked the beginning of the season for the British in London,
01:37a ball shown on a very large scale,
01:39held in 1958,
01:42really, because it was a bicycle.
01:44In the white hair of the mother-in-law of the Prince,
01:47Princess Margaret,
01:48all the women, without any doubt, of London,
01:50took part in it.
01:52When the debutants left,
01:54the door of the other two opened.
01:57The Queen expressed her desire for exclusive wedding parties in Cobst,
02:01sometimes traditional,
02:03and opened them up for people from all spheres of life,
02:06starting with nurses, doctors, air force,
02:09asylum seekers and captains,
02:118,000 at a time,
02:13in one of the most popular and relatively informal wedding events.
02:18It's nice to be able to relax and sit in Cobst.
02:21So the wedding is a very nice Cobst.
02:24It is a place to see and meet the most interesting people of England who live here.
02:29This is a special day for them,
02:31and it is wonderful that the British do all this.
02:33It is something fantastic.
02:35Are your plates?
02:36Are your men your plates?
02:37Put a plate in your hand ready to offer, ok?
02:46Modern world, modern monarchy,
02:48which means that the statistics of the weddings in Cobst
02:51are well documented and published.
02:53So we know that for such a party
02:55they use 27,000 cups of tea,
02:57and 20,000 cups of cake,
02:59and a sandwich.
03:00It costs from 700,000 to 800,000 pounds a year,
03:04which can be done with the fact
03:06that each guest consumes,
03:08with the fact that each guest consumes 14 items each.
03:12It's very calming, a cake or two.
03:17The atmosphere is truly magnificent,
03:19and the smell is very good.
03:21We like the smell.
03:25To be the main character of an English wedding in Cobst
03:28is certainly the weather.
03:30It would have been less interesting
03:32if the weather was always sunny,
03:34because there is no black cloud after that.
03:38And the weather has become more and more intense,
03:41and the whole area is filled with traffic.
03:43The streets are empty,
03:45and only a few people are stuck in traffic.
03:50And this is undoubtedly the wedding of Mbret Resha.
03:55After the formal day at the wedding center,
03:57Mbret Resha and Duke of Edinburgh
03:59have spent a lot of time
04:01interacting with the main characters
04:03of a country in constant change.
04:05Younger men are regularly invited
04:07to play actors, writers, scientists,
04:09and other people.
04:11Meanwhile, a wide range of people
04:13come together to discuss topics
04:15in the Buckingham Palace,
04:17such as the Australians in England,
04:19those in the emergency services,
04:21or explorers.
04:23Today, for example, there are young artists
04:25and some of their directors.
04:27I would never have attacked Mbret Resha.
04:29I would never have attacked Mbret Resha
04:31because of my relationship with Wilson.
04:33That's why I'm very excited to be here.
04:35I feel like I'm in a movie.
04:37It's an honor to be part of the wedding ceremony.
04:39I thought that outside there would be
04:41a lot of people with tents.
04:43I didn't prepare myself.
04:45Yes, you did.
04:47This is not a wedding ceremony.
04:49I thought I was the only one.
04:51Daffy and Ellie Goulding.
04:53I mean, I think it's extremely
04:55remarkable for young artists
04:57because it's easy to be encouraged
04:59to know that you are accepted
05:01by the culture, the society,
05:03the family of your country
05:05and by your status quo.
05:07There are so many young artists,
05:09especially young people,
05:11who know that they are accepted
05:13by society and for many reasons
05:15they have to be accepted
05:17because they have to challenge
05:19the status quo.
05:21People have called Mbret Resha
05:23because of the film.
05:25She is the only person
05:27who has been completely ignored.
05:29What does that mean for you?
05:31Apart from myself.
05:33She is the only person
05:35who has been ignored for a long time
05:37in her life.
05:39Ever since I came to consciousness.
05:41And this is something
05:43that is incredibly remarkable
05:45to have in your life, I think.
05:47What is this?
05:51What is this?
06:17Mbret Resha has been involved
06:19in these events since the beginning
06:21of their organization.
06:23So, since she continued
06:25to work on the development of ideas,
06:27Mbret Resha has been involved
06:29in every aspect of the project.
06:31So, there is no need
06:33for a lot of information
06:35because she has taught us
06:37the common words
06:39during the planning of the event.
06:41Tonight is a performance,
06:43a mix between traditional
06:45Mbret Resha and traditional Mbret Resha.
06:47Now, this is more like a theater
06:49where the actors and the audience
06:51are all on stage.
06:53Mbret Resha Victoria
06:55would have been more famous
06:57and acted maybe, who knows.
06:59It is hard to imagine
07:01that while you are talking so easily.
07:03It is very interesting.
07:07It is a real experience
07:09to see Mbret Resha.
07:11And I believe a lot in the art
07:13and the people of Mbret Resha.
07:15And to see the events
07:17that have been here for years
07:19but the walls still work.
07:21It is a fantastic experience
07:23for the people, isn't it?
07:25Yes, a magnificent experience.
07:27Time changes everything.
07:29To see the new Roman and the old Juliet
07:31and everything else.
07:33It is something fantastic.
07:35I am not a big fan of the fact
07:37that I am part of this industry
07:39because I know a little about the past.
07:41I've been here now for eight years.
07:46Actually, it was the first time I've been here.
07:49It's the only shame because they don't allow me to take pictures.
07:52You know, I can go anywhere.
07:54My name is Siss. That's me and my sister.
08:01One of the greatest achievements of being able to meet people
08:04was created by Duke of Edinburgh,
08:06a man known for his talks face to face with them.
08:09His award-winning scheme has allowed more than 7 million young people
08:14to test themselves, to grow more and to improve more,
08:18with the Duke representing the gold medal personally,
08:21as today in the St. James Palace.
08:25People were walking around.
08:28The young members of the Meritorious Family
08:30have to cultivate a passion that they don't need to say anywhere else.
08:35This is a chronometre research,
08:37which was created, by the way, through a conversation with higher authority,
08:41was created to calm them down and to encourage them to talk even nervously,
08:45to relieve a little tension,
08:47to shake off a little laughter.
08:51And in this way, to ensure that millions of people leave their countries,
08:56having had a personal connection with the Duke of Edinburgh,
09:00in this case, but above all, with the British monarchy.
09:06Are you a sailor or not?
09:08No, we're kayaking, sir.
09:10Kayaking?
09:11Yes, along the river Thuit.
09:13Have you been sailing since you started with the river?
09:16Yes, from the start to the finish point, which was very good.
09:20All the way, or not?
09:21Yes, we sail until the sunset and we start kayaking until dusk.
09:25It's a shame.
09:26You're a sailor, Duke Edsour,
09:28while Elie is on the river until the sun sets.
09:32So, how does the British family learn these techniques?
09:36It's a kind of loyalty, with all the secrets and skills,
09:40the many days of the year,
09:42and all the British families involved in this work,
09:45working in the country, starting with the families,
09:48schools, hospitals, and charitable associations
09:51that have decided to support them personally,
09:54all of which cost them time.
09:56This is a very big undertaking,
09:59with over 4,000 commitments over the years.
10:02So, how do you do it?
10:08You learn by learning,
10:10so, first of all, being in the background.
10:16I've got a lot of memories of when I was young,
10:19but also during my growth.
10:21I was trying to keep up with all the commitments
10:24or events that were going on,
10:26and I was realizing, of course,
10:28that this was the right time to do it.
10:33I believe that the first commitment
10:35was a great incentive for her
10:37to give back to the Welsh families
10:39on the day of Christmas.
10:41Have you learned anything, per se,
10:43about how to do these things?
10:45Well, that commitment came along
10:47with a lot of learning in the sense
10:49of the structure of the day
10:51and the sense of the British family,
10:53but not much more than that.
10:56She very much leads the way
10:58and when their own families find their own ways
11:01and if you do it, if you do it,
11:03you will find your own ways
11:05and if you do it,
11:07you will find your own ways
11:09and let's just get on with it
11:11and choose our own sort of...
11:13choose what we want to support.
11:15But how do you do it?
11:17You start in motion
11:19when you think about how you might be able to help.
11:22What causes are you talking about?
11:24I'm in the middle of a 12-year-old's surgery, and I have no doubt that it's going to help other people to understand what I had, and I have no doubt that it's going to help right now.
11:35Can you explain what this is supposed to help?
11:37This is a scoliosis of the spinal cord. It's a kind of bone. A lot of people are born with it. Lots of people are diagnosed with it and they don't really know what it is.
11:46So this is something that you can use to help other people?
11:50Yes, I'm not just talking about my experience. I'm not just talking about my experience.
11:54And Beatrice is studying for dyslexia in school.
11:57I think this is something really amazing, especially for a beginner, which is something...
12:03For example, when I was diagnosed with dyslexia when I was seven years old, everyone was thinking,
12:09Why was she so slow in school?
12:11And this was something that I was able to learn very quickly, and I was able to know that there was support there, and I was able to continue my life, knowing that you had a little bit more support.
12:22But it's not everything. It can be a personal choice, because the choice is very different.
12:27For example, in 2002, the Ambretrôre family faced a dilemma.
12:31After the birth of Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret, a very large number of organizations changed themselves without a president or without a family association, and then there was a little bit of coordination.
12:46How do you solve this?
12:48We decided on a list of letters in each village, and we will do everything we can to solve it.
12:55Of course, it's not just the individual support that matters.
13:03Perhaps the most important role of the Ambretrôre and the British monarchy is to bring people together as one.
13:11The last and most spectacular example of this was undoubtedly the Ambretrôre family.
13:16We love William! We love him! We love William! We love him!
13:21April 29, 2011, and Prince William, nephew of the Ambretrôre, marries Catherine Middleton, more than half a century after the Ambretrôre marriage here.
13:32This ceremony will be familiar. It is the most important event of the British monarchy that many people will see around the world.
13:40The crowd behind me is going to look at the Ambretrôre wedding, or the wedding of Princess Diana and Charles.
13:52But they're doing exactly the same thing as their ancestors.
13:58They have gathered in tents all night, drinking tea, singing patriotic songs, and even dancing.
14:05This is exactly what is traditional as the modern monarchy itself.
14:14How is this important for the British monarchy?
14:18We've got Kate Middleton as the main source of stress for the people.
14:23It's fantastic. This is England, isn't it? London is having a big party.
14:27Have you ever been to such a ceremony before?
14:30And even in the Ambretrôre ceremony, there are discussions about the list of candidates.
14:37The first meeting we had was after Jesus, when he was making a lot of promises about this.
14:45And I was very excited and amazed.
14:48I was in the first meeting, and I was presented with a list of 777 names.
14:53And I was shocked. And there was not a single person who knew.
14:57I was afraid of what was going to happen.
15:00And who was going to be elected every day?
15:03And then you say, no, it didn't happen that way.
15:06Let's just do it from the beginning.
15:08And then I phoned Jesus for some information about this list.
15:11And he told me that this was crazy.
15:13And that he had to start the list with a thousand and a thousand.
15:19Boris Johnson. This is a very, very important day not only for England, but also for the British monarchy.
15:26It's a huge moment.
15:28But this is certainly a critical moment in the anthropological picture of the life of this group.
15:33And it can be said about many other groups.
15:35Because this is the moment when we publicly legitimize the reproduction of Ambretrôres and English Ambretrôres.
15:41And who would have thought that in this very special event, in this ceremony,
15:45among other things, the distribution of the most emblematic institution in this country.
15:49So the marriage stands for the continuity of Britain and of British institutions.
16:03That marriage is continuity.
16:06But there is also a change.
16:09Some pictures, but also images in the abbey too.
16:13Flames and foliage.
16:16I am a very traditional man.
16:18But so is my community.
16:20So together we want to create a special atmosphere.
16:24But at the same time, we want to have our own personal desire in them.
16:28Because at the end of the day, it was our day.
16:31We want to share our happiness with everyone.
16:34It's like anyone does on their wedding day.
16:36But it had to be in a larger scale than what anyone else would normally do.
16:41I was just nervous, William.
16:43Being a man like me, I didn't have much to say.
16:46And I was in a hurry because I didn't have a jacket.
16:49But I was trying to check to make sure that I was there before him.
16:53Because I was concerned about him.
16:55I was there to support him.
16:57To tell him how fantastic it was.
16:59That was his day.
17:00I just wanted him to give me a smile.
17:02I had to make sure that he wasn't too nervous.
17:05And that everything was going according to plan.
17:09Even though everyone was wearing a wedding dress and a wedding bouquet,
17:14behind the scenes, even the bride and groom,
17:17there was still a lot of discussion.
17:22Within the Irish royal regiment, there are several dresses.
17:26And I had found a different one than the one I was wearing that day.
17:30But I decided that the Austrian jacket, the brown one,
17:33was very elegant and appropriate for that day.
17:36And he told me naturally that I had to wear it.
17:39And I did as he told me.
17:42I didn't know much about the dress.
17:44But the jacket he was wearing was the right one.
17:47As always.
17:51There's nothing to be surprised about
17:53when we look at the first day of the ceremony.
17:56It was a tradition with a little change.
17:58And the message is well thought out and serious.
18:01With this outfit, I'm dealing with him.
18:03With this outfit, I'm dealing with him.
18:05With this outfit, I'm dealing with him.
18:07With this outfit, I'm dealing with him.
18:09And I'm dealing with him with all the good things I have in the world.
18:12And I'm dealing with him with all the good things I have in the world.
18:15Many, many people were, I think,
18:17truly encouraged by the fact
18:19that we were a very, very common couple
18:22who had decided to develop their life
18:24as part of the traditional discipline
18:26of creating for the heritage.
18:28By doing it without much work, without much effort,
18:31and by taking on the role of faith and courage.
18:34And I think it was a very, very joyful and rather relaxed occasion in many ways.
18:45Although I was very sad when I left,
18:47I felt a little better that day.
18:56A bit of everything,
18:57taking into account the higher ranks of the Mretrori family,
19:00I know that many people consider him
19:02to be the first descendant of the middle class.
19:05Prince William continues to hope
19:07that the monarchy will always remain
19:10in the social sphere,
19:12in contrast to the British.
19:14Will we have our first descendant
19:16of the Mretrori family,
19:18or an Asian descendant?
19:20Well, there is no reason why not.
19:23The Windsor Dynasty
19:25has always presented itself
19:27as the monarchy of the family,
19:29the ideal family.
19:31But of course,
19:32it is also a real family.
19:34And the real family
19:36has problems,
19:38problems and even fallings apart.
19:41On the other hand,
19:43the real family
19:45can change people,
19:47unite people,
19:49bring people together,
19:51and this speaks for us
19:53as it speaks for them.
19:56True of us,
19:58true of them.
20:03This change is also different
20:05from the moment when the prince
20:07marries his wife with his brother's car,
20:09leaving behind his brother.
20:13William was about to leave
20:15his car for a year,
20:17but when he arrived at home,
20:19he found himself in the middle of the road.
20:21It is a very difficult car to drive.
20:23It also reflects the fact
20:25that he does not know how to drive.
20:27But to simplify the situation even more,
20:29he took his mother with him
20:31and was very prepared
20:33to see the big,
20:35magnificent building
20:37from the Buckingham Palace.
20:39And let's be honest,
20:41the Mretrori family
20:43was born at the end of a dark period
20:45In 1929,
20:47as a young married woman,
20:49the Mretresa made a speech
20:51in the Ninth Union,
20:53denouncing the divorce
20:55as a violation of the highest
20:57obligations of society.
20:59At that time,
21:01the monarchy and the traditional
21:03marriage of the Mretresa
21:05was a natural equation.
21:07Divorced people could not
21:09enter the Mretrori house
21:11at all.
21:13The colonel of the Air Force,
21:15Peter Townsend,
21:17a senior minister,
21:19urged him to leave the cabinet
21:21and the Mretresa to live alone.
21:23But during the Mretrori's
21:25assassination,
21:27the situation changed
21:29rapidly.
21:31Three of the Mretrori's children
21:33were divorced,
21:35and the sad fate of the Mretresa,
21:37Prince Charles,
21:39and Lady Diana Spencer
21:41The year 1992
21:43is not a year
21:45that we will remember
21:47with undiluted pleasure.
21:51According to the words
21:53of one of my favorite correspondents,
21:55that year was a horrible anus,
21:57a horrible year.
22:05In 1992,
22:07the Mretresa was born again.
22:09On the 25th of March,
22:11the castle of Windsor,
22:13the castle of the monarchy
22:15for the past 1000 years,
22:17was destroyed by bombs,
22:19and a fire broke out,
22:21which burned through
22:23more than 100 houses.
22:25The ferry accelerated
22:27a dramatic change in the way
22:29the Mretresa administered
22:31money and taxes.
22:33The government suggested
22:35that the taxpayer should
22:37pay the tax,
22:39and this happened
22:41when people were asking
22:43why the Mretresa
22:45had not paid
22:47its personal income.
22:49I think that the fire in Windsor
22:51affected the time
22:53of the reform,
22:55but people had been thinking
22:57about the end of the reform
22:59for quite a while,
23:01and it was progressive.
23:03It is possible that
23:05the Mretresa should pay the tax?
23:07Yes, I mean that
23:09it should not be above
23:11that part of the law.
23:13During this period,
23:15were you concerned
23:17about the status of the monarchy
23:19in the country?
23:21I was concerned
23:23about the lack of criticism
23:25and the lack of popularity
23:27that the monarchy was
23:29achieving in a short period.
23:31I was not concerned
23:33about the fact
23:35that the Mretresa
23:37was not popular
23:39for a very long period
23:41after the death
23:43of Prince Albert II,
23:45the rise of the monarchy
23:47was so great
23:49that even in a period
23:51when its popularity
23:53was growing,
23:55it could still
23:57prevail.
23:59The Mretresa,
24:01which was founded
24:03in 1993,
24:05has been visited
24:07by many people
24:09for its beautiful
24:11corridors,
24:13beautiful gardens
24:15and unique collections of art.
24:17All this money
24:19is not for the Mretresa,
24:21but for the restoration
24:23of the palaces
24:25and the walls of the city.
24:27The greatest contribution
24:29to the restoration
24:31of the city
24:33of Mretresa
24:35is the fact
24:37that the Mretresa
24:39was built
24:41in a very short period
24:43after the death
24:45of Prince Albert II,
24:47the rise of the monarchy
24:49was so great
24:51that even in a period
24:53when its popularity
24:55was growing,
24:57it could still prevail.
24:59Again and again,
25:01the monarchy
25:03is a relatively
25:05strange alternative.
25:07How do you think
25:09Britain or Moscow
25:11would have been
25:13without a monarchy
25:15without the restoration
25:17of a Mretresa
25:19and a republic?
25:21A number of people
25:23think that they would
25:25have been without a monarchy
25:27without the restoration
25:29of a Mretresa.
25:31Honestly,
25:33when I think about
25:35the time in Britain
25:37when I had the privilege
25:39to go there
25:41to attend the event
25:43on the world stage,
25:45I remember how much
25:47we had to pay
25:49for advertising
25:51for the fashion industry
25:53Ziarin Windsor
25:55was a great success
25:57for the Mretresa family
25:59but from the beginning
26:01it was a great success.
26:03In the season of 2019
26:05half a million people
26:07have visited this place.
26:09This place generates
26:11a lot of money
26:13for the Mretresa collection
26:15and in total
26:17we have in the whole country
26:19for all the palaces,
26:21we have the biggest economic
26:23resources of the world.
26:31In the period of 16 years
26:33in the front,
26:35Mretresa has done something
26:37that no one has done before
26:39and we are not talking
26:41only about opening palaces.
26:43In 2010, this palace,
26:45Holyrood House in Edinburgh
26:47was the place of a very
26:49strong armistice between
26:51Protestants and Catholics.
26:53The opinion of the Sultan
26:55would not be the same
26:57if the Turks did not
26:59agree with each other.
27:01So it is a place
27:03of the Mretresa family,
27:05the capital of England
27:07and the capital
27:09of Scotland.
27:11First of all,
27:13the Pope of Rome
27:15on a state visit.
27:17He visited the communities
27:19of Scotland.
27:21The fact that all the people
27:23came to worship the Pope
27:25with the love and affection
27:27that he displayed,
27:29this is a unique
27:31union of the Scottish society.
27:33This shows
27:35how far we have come
27:37in the past.
27:39This is the Mretresa
27:41in the role of a union,
27:43a symbol of unity,
27:45a symbol of peace,
27:47a symbol of unity,
27:49a symbol of peace,
27:51a symbol of unity,
27:53a symbol of peace,
27:55a symbol of unity,
27:57a symbol of peace,
27:59a symbol of unity,
28:01a symbol of peace,
28:03a symbol of unity,
28:05a symbol of peace,
28:07a symbol of unity,
28:09a symbol of peace,
28:11a symbol of unity,
28:13a symbol of peace.
28:15Who lies dead!
28:43tolerant and democratic.
28:50The Queen has faced many taboos in her time,
28:53some more severe than others.
28:56It is May 2020, and the Queen is ready to go to the Irish Republic.
29:01No British monarch in my opinion has been here for a century,
29:05and when it comes to the work of the Queen,
29:07it doesn't get much better than this.
29:13Now, this is not a matter of risk.
29:15There is security in London and Dublin,
29:18and everywhere she goes,
29:20there is some kind of sensitive historical echo.
29:26So this is not something very easy stuff.
29:31The Queen, as a representative of the British state,
29:34is credited with all the things that Britain did right,
29:37and has done in history,
29:39and as a representative of the British state,
29:42and has done in history,
29:44and has done in history,
29:46to accomplish as well.
29:48She touches down,
29:50and reminds us that this is not a nation of monarchists.
29:54Well, it's just a matter of risk.
29:56We'll have Obama as well in the end of the month.
29:59You know, I don't really think it's that important.
30:04I don't really think it's that important.
30:06I don't think it's that important.
30:08As much courtesy as we can garner.
30:15This is the first visit in almost 100 years by a monarch,
30:18and I think the apology would be good.
30:20A lot of people have been hurt because of the British.
30:23It's absolutely shocking.
30:27The same day that her father,
30:29the Parliament of the Free Irish State,
30:31was accepted by her constitution,
30:34she went to visit her cousin,
30:36Arrin, who was a co-brother of the Great British and the Irish,
30:40to meet the Irish President at the time,
30:43Mary Macallis.
30:46If there is one place on earth
30:48that has proven its identity against the British Crown,
30:52it's here.
30:57It's important that we remember our history,
31:00but people also have to forget it.
31:03This is the work of the British,
31:05and it's important that we remember a small part of history.
31:18It was like a dream that was fulfilled for a long time,
31:21and you realize from the beginning
31:23that there was something else in it.
31:25Many people don't understand what it means
31:27to not be in the country,
31:29to go somewhere, or to see something in your life,
31:32and you realize that you are a child
31:34who didn't want to go to a foreign country.
31:37For her, Ireland was unique.
31:39She always wanted to go to a foreign country,
31:42so I think this was a big step for her.
31:47She must have had some kind of nervousness,
31:50because she had a lot of history to tell.
31:53I was very nervous about all of this,
31:56but she admires very much the fact
31:58that the British family
32:00came to Ireland relatively quickly
32:02after the finalization of the last part
32:04of the transfer of Ireland's sovereignty.
32:07They didn't want to wait
32:09and they didn't want to wait any longer.
32:11They didn't want to wait any longer,
32:13and I thought that was a fantastic judgment.
32:18In the first century,
32:20people were filled with enthusiasm
32:22to hear the voice of Mary,
32:24the wife of George V,
32:26and the wife of Mary,
32:28the queen of Ireland.
32:54Yes, the security forces
32:56They were very open and very strong, and this is where they should have been.
33:02After this visit, they were transported across the globe, starting from the Algeciras station to Bloomberg.
33:09Personally, I would like to take some good messages from them about bilateral relations.
33:15Pride and respect.
33:20We understand the importance of the Irish Trouble.
33:23The Irish Trouble was a major part of his 16-year-old life,
33:27and he reached out to his family in a more direct way.
33:31In 1979, when the Irish Revolution started,
33:34Lord Louis Mountbatten was the Commander-in-Chief of the Irish Navy,
33:39one of the strongest and most assertive influences in the Irish family,
33:43who was assassinated by the Irish in his home country, Ireland.
33:48Lord Mountbatten had come for a visit to Bark,
33:51with his family members, one day on a holiday.
33:54On board the boat was Paul Maxwell, his wife,
33:57the great-grandmother of Mountbatten, Patricia,
34:00her husband, Lord Braborn,
34:02his wife, and their 14-year-old daughter,
34:05Nicholas and Timothy.
34:07The seven of us, and we had five minutes in the deck,
34:13a happy, calm day,
34:15not a cloud in the sky,
34:17and my brother, who was sitting on the deck,
34:21with his arms outstretched,
34:23said to him,
34:24Isn't it a happy day?
34:26And with people, after that,
34:28I'm going to give you a kiss.
34:30There was this almighty bang.
34:34I mean, it wasn't for a long time,
34:37that I understood that it was a bomb,
34:40because Bark had no problems.
34:42I thought it had exploded the engine,
34:45and only when I got to the rehabilitation room,
34:48someone explained to me that,
34:50no, no, it was a bomb,
34:52for which I was really surprised.
34:57Only three people were injured in the explosion,
35:00Patricia, her husband,
35:02and only one from their family,
35:04Timothy.
35:05They were all seriously injured.
35:07So, when did you understand
35:09that Nicky was dead?
35:11My sister, Joanna,
35:13one of my two sisters,
35:15came to me and explained to me
35:18that when you came to the hospital,
35:20you were unconscious,
35:22you were dead,
35:23like Nicky.
35:24You woke up.
35:25Nicky never did.
35:28And I immediately understood
35:31that either I was going to survive,
35:34or I was going to die.
35:37Or I would believe that I was going to survive,
35:40or I would believe that I was being a survivor.
35:43Started.
35:46Some days later,
35:47when his parents were still in the hospital,
35:49his brother had arrived,
35:51and he invited Timothy and one of his sisters
35:53to Balmoral,
35:54to see him.
35:56And he saw a man in a suit,
35:58that very few people in the world
36:00are able to see.
36:02We arrived through the door,
36:04and I looked down,
36:06and there was a corridor,
36:08on the side of the corridor,
36:10and there was Prince Charles,
36:12Prince Charles at the front,
36:14who was coming up the corridor,
36:16steaming up the corridor,
36:18with a sign,
36:19with a sign,
36:20with a sign,
36:21with a sign,
36:22with a sign,
36:23with a sign,
36:24and he just wanted really to be.
36:35...with soup and sandwiches.
36:37And wrapping us up,
36:38in what I can only really describe
36:41as a sort of motherliness,
36:42coming from the Queen.
36:48The Queen's founding in Ireland
36:51was in another kind of canary,
36:53The other one is Rimi, a lawyer for the old plagues.
36:57He has been to the most difficult and difficult places.
37:05I always had the idea that in some way, the culmination or the beginning
37:10that would lead to the change of the Republic of Ireland
37:13and the joint visit would be a joint visit.
37:16And this is something that I had discussed with the Irish Prime Minister.
37:21And this is a role that perhaps only we can play
37:24to make the difference that history is history
37:27and the future will be different.
37:38Perhaps one of the most beautiful places we visit in Britain
37:41is the Croke Park.
37:45In 1920, after the Irish War for Independence,
37:4930 spectators and a lawyer came here
37:52to enforce the British control over the country.
37:56Earlier that day, Irish war squads
37:59had started to attack 14 secret British intelligence services
38:04known as the Secret Intelligence.
38:10In the Dublin castle, that building,
38:12I was surrounded by a group of unarmed men
38:15who were preaching and expressing their sympathy
38:18for what had happened between the British and the Irish.
38:33I wonder to myself, because I speak Irish,
38:36how would he have dealt with the words
38:38of the author of the August Card,
38:40President De Meech.
38:42He did a very good job.
38:45He had a good pronunciation.
38:47It had an absolute effect that day.
38:50All these people who were known as strong republicans,
38:55you could sort of see the effect
38:57that they had on the world.
38:59She used the authority of the monarchy,
39:02her writing and her experience,
39:05to solve a problem,
39:07to repair a mistake
39:09and to change her nature
39:11of what has gone between us
39:13in a really, absolutely spellbinding way.
39:22We can never forget the time
39:24when these men were murdered
39:26or their families were killed.
39:28All those who were killed
39:30as a result of the past transgressions
39:32of which I sincerely believe
39:34and I would like to say.
39:37I would like to thank the author
39:39who taught us history
39:41so that we can all see the changes
39:43that would have happened
39:45or never have happened.
39:51She did this to build a network of history
39:54so that we all can contribute to it.
39:57In the end we are all the most beautiful.
40:02Ireland and Britain are probably the most beautiful
40:05in any sense of the word
40:07and I would like to thank her for that.
40:21In her country, as the head of state,
40:23she has painted a lot of famous people,
40:25icons of the 20th century,
40:27like Charles de Gaulle in France,
40:29Nelson Mandela in South Africa
40:31and the Russians of World War II,
40:33like Khrushchev.
40:35She is the daughter of the Ethiopian president,
40:37Haile Selassie,
40:39and she is being supported by her ministers.
40:41She also has some brutal tyrants,
40:43like Nikolai Ceausescu,
40:45the Romanian Marxist dictator,
40:47who was elected in 1978.
40:49She is giving her a communist medal.
40:53Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe
40:55came in 1994
40:57even though he is on his way
40:59to win the title of the last king.
41:01Idi Amin of Uganda,
41:03who is also not from here,
41:05came to visit her
41:07in 1971
41:09and asked her to organize
41:11a visit for her in Scotland,
41:13Ireland and Wales,
41:15so that she could meet
41:17the leaders of the revolutionary visions
41:19who are fighting against
41:21the imperialist government.
41:23So, she has seen a lot of people.
41:25In 2011,
41:27she came to the press,
41:29she is the head of state
41:31and she is a very good friend.
41:35So, here we are,
41:37in the beautiful surroundings
41:39of Buckingham Palace,
41:41where President Barack Obama
41:43came only a few days
41:45after his historic visit
41:47to Ireland.
41:49And there is something
41:51that connects these two events,
41:53because when Barack Obama
41:55became the first president of the United Kingdom,
41:57many people in the government
41:59thought that he was not very pro-British,
42:01maybe even uneducated.
42:03A part of the reason for this
42:05was that Barack Obama himself
42:07was arrested, bullied and tortured
42:09by the local forces of the king,
42:11especially before he became
42:13more and more important,
42:15from the earliest moments
42:17in the colonial history
42:19of the Queen of Ireland.
42:21And so, he comes here.
42:23The Queen of Ireland has created
42:25a strong personal relationship
42:27with Barack Obama and his family.
42:29And this is a sign of humanity.
42:31I'm not saying that this is
42:33the most important thing
42:35in British-American relations.
42:37Of course not.
42:39But at a human level,
42:41this sort of thing
42:43really does matter.
42:47They are people
42:49who could not have been
42:51kinder than cats.
42:53At that time,
42:55they were the first people
42:57who came to England in April 2008.
42:59And later, Michelle and Vizat
43:01visited London for the first time
43:03and went to Buckingham Palace.
43:05They are people who are charming
43:07and charming people
43:09who carry the courage
43:11on the ground,
43:13not only for the Great Britain,
43:15but for all the Commonwealth countries
43:17and I think for the whole world.
43:19And I think this is the best
43:21thing that England has
43:23and we're very proud of her.
43:25We've got a pretty good deal.
43:27On all of these visits,
43:29the guests get to spend
43:31a special visit
43:33in our collection.
43:35And this time,
43:37it's about the fact
43:39that Victoria was enslaved
43:41in the United States
43:43by George III.
43:45She traveled from Tokyo
43:47as a poor refugee.
43:49A poor refugee.
43:51This is just a small shot
43:53of the day.
43:55The President is on his way
43:57to Downing Street
43:59to have some serious talks
44:01about the global economy.
44:03And then he's going to
44:05go to a banquet
44:07at Buckingham Palace
44:09which is not going
44:11to be an ordinary
44:13high-level banquet.
44:15Here, the President
44:17and other guests
44:19are being served
44:21by George IV
44:23in 1811
44:25although it's been added
44:27to over the time.
44:29This service can be
44:314,000 pieces in this.
44:33All right?
44:35Yeah.
44:37Every time the President
44:39is being served
44:41in 1811,
44:43he's in charge
44:45of a final check.
44:47He's in charge
44:49of a final check.
44:51What about the microphones
44:53for the after-speech?
44:55Do they need to be hidden?
44:57I don't know. I'll fix this.
44:59I believe he's...
45:01Is that all right?
45:03He's taller than you.
45:05He's taller than me.
45:07Okay.
45:09But I would think
45:11that they're quite sensible.
45:13Yeah, I will pick them up.
45:15I will pick them up.
45:17I will pick them up.
45:19I will pick them up.
45:21I will pick them up.
45:23I will pick them up.
45:25I will pick them up.
45:27I will pick them up.
45:29I will pick them up.
45:31I will pick them up.
45:33I will pick them up.
45:35I will pick them up.
45:37I will pick them up.
45:39I will pick them up.
45:41I will pick them up.
45:43I will pick them up.
45:45I will pick them up.
45:47I will pick them up.
45:49I think people in the world
45:51may not understand
45:53what kind of an iconic figure
45:55he is.
45:57The most important part
45:59of the state visit
46:01is the banquet
46:03in Buckingham Palace.
46:05It's enormous amount of goods.
46:07It's quiet.
46:09It's expensive.
46:11We will have to wait
46:13to see if it will happen.
46:15I'm sure it will.
46:17I must say that
46:19this banquet is a modest
46:21reminder of the nature
46:23of the presidents
46:25and prime ministers.
46:27Your majesty's visit
46:29is limited to just one dose
46:31and it continues to grow.
46:33This makes you a great
46:35witness to the greatness
46:37of our alliance
46:39with the Portuguese.
46:41It's been a delicate transition
46:43between the traditional
46:45and the modern times.
46:47It's been a challenge
46:49to understand international
46:51policies and international
46:53policies as a matter of politeness
46:55but nevertheless it has
46:57changed the status of Britain
46:59as you know very well.
47:01I name this banquet
47:03Britain.
47:05I wish for his success
47:07and I'm sure he will be proud
47:09of it.
47:13In 1953
47:15the British launched
47:17the British Navy
47:19with which he will be proud
47:21for centuries
47:23as his personal name.
47:27What was it like to be in Britain
47:29with them?
47:31It was the most enjoyable
47:33thing I've ever done.
47:35Did you think that Britain
47:37was more relaxed in Britain
47:39than anywhere else?
47:41Of course it was.
47:43There was a magical moment
47:45at the end of the day
47:47when the British
47:49came to his office
47:51and gave a speech
47:53and embarked on a sort of
47:55resume of the day.
47:59You saw a different person
48:01in British clothes
48:03sitting around the table
48:05telling stories
48:07from the past.
48:11It was like going out
48:13to the sea
48:15and the wind blew.
48:19We were the luckiest people
48:21to be able to work
48:23on the British board.
48:25We have a lot of memories.
48:27It was like a big family
48:29certainly in the early years
48:31but the fact that they stayed
48:33in Barbados for six months
48:35was truly their home.
48:37On his board,
48:39Embratresa made
48:411,000 state visits
48:43to Barbados
48:45including the role
48:47of a prince
48:49from Boris Yeltsin
48:51to Ronald Reagan.
48:53If Embratresa was the only
48:55Embratresa of the United Kingdom,
48:57Britain would have been
48:59part of the Commonwealth
49:01and part of the plan
49:03to join these extraordinary
49:05organizations,
49:07starting from the big cities
49:09to the small towns
49:11to be filled with crusaders.
49:13But Britain played
49:15a secret role
49:17throughout the war.
