11:34 am
can you lead a completely anonymous life because people were very considerate and realized that they do not want a different attitude. i think it was a very special experience, how can you actually lead a normal private life in malta, the prince became interested in playing polo and the princess found her hobby, she filmed what she loved most in the life of horses and her husband, and the dynasty needed children, and here is prince charles of edinburgh, for the first time in the last two centuries, a prince in the line of succession to the throne was named charles, a
11:35 am
year after the wedding, their family's home videos appeared the first-born, it was a rare opportunity to see the princess so furiously cheerful and defenseless , she led a normal life without the restrictions of ceremony, because her purpose was always to fulfill public duties, instead, prince charles already in the cradle was the future king. and two years later , a second child was born. it was the first public appearance of the one-month-old princess anna, but she had no idea about it, but soon the family suffered a terrible blow. in 1952, king george vi fell seriously ill, he sent his daughter with her husband to a trip to australia and new zealand, they had to return through kenya, that was the last time she saw her father in kenya,

11:38 am
entered and passed the look on which she had to sit next , she knelt in prayer in front of the main altar, this is a very deep symbolism when the head of state makes a vow to god before others make a vow, the queen accepted the anointing of blessing and consecration and anointed you before by god and the law for her, it was the exact moment when she became the queen at the ceremony, which in more than a thousand years has hardly changed the queen were crowned christian faith was of
11:39 am
great importance to the queen she always remained strict followed the rules and went to church i think it was instilled in her from the very beginning and i think that perhaps the most interesting thing for the queen was that she always wondered why other people did not have the same faith as this day is coming to an end and i know that i will remember it not only because of the solemnity and beauty of the ceremony." »
11:40 am
27 million viewers watched the telecast of the ceremony, but not these private family moments that the queen filmed personally behind the scenes buckingham palace, they remind us that monarchy and family are one and the same. four-year-old prince charles became the first child to watch his mother's coronation sitting on his grandmother's lap. princess anne was still too young. i will never forget how young we were and were taking a bath and she came in and tried on the crown before the coronation amazing moment i will never forget it now she was the
11:41 am
sovereign of the united kingdom of australia new zealand and canada and head of 14 other independent states, she also became the head of the anglican church, the royal navy, the army, the royal air force, and, of course, the commonwealth. she visited australia for the first time in 1954, when i was 14 or 15 years old, and now the queen on the throne came and the visit aroused any interest, it was a significant event, i think people treated her so well because her love for the commonwealth was evident she cried every part of this
11:42 am
territorial empire as every part of her united kingdom queen and mother elizabeth ii became the first british sovereign since queen victoria to combine these roles while on the throne in 1960 with prince andrew appeared and in four years prince edward became a princess and prince charles at 17 as the heir to the throne prince charles received the title of prince of wales when they were still a boy so that he would better understand the meaning of the title at the request of the queen formally, the investiture ceremony took place when he was already 20. i remember being a little nervous when they told me that i would have to go through the whole castle with that heavy and unusual crown on my head. in the end, i had to go to my mother,
11:43 am
kneel in front of her, and get a no. i am charles the prince of wales i am your forever jovial i think it was a very solemn touching and humbling moment under the rules of the new times they were much closer to their people than ever a few weeks before the investiture two thirds of the population got the opportunity to follow the daily life of the royal family on tv screens, it gave an understanding of how the royal family lived in the 1960s, i kept wondering if we would find something for sapphires for a
11:44 am
silver bouquet. so it's easy, the main thing is not to forget about it, as if a tiger is growling. let's go already to the others , let's go, let's join the others. how the queen managed to combine maternal duties with the monarchs was unknown for many years, but her children kept quiet about it. there was no question of vacations at all, we almost always spent them somewhere at home because of the fact that there was everything that she liked, the countryside, dogs, horses. she loved to be there. and it was also an opportunity to avoid the watchful eye of the public. i have very warm memories of my childhood in scotland, a good ball, the sea in the summer and everything else. so i was extremely happy that i had
11:45 am
such mother she always remained a queen and it was extremely important for all of us, but she was also my mother, that's how i remembered her, the happiest times when we were together, the holidays came, so belmorel and sandringen remain my favorites to show in places because when we arrived there we were a real family why did you do it because it will stay that way she was always interested in everything what i was doing i remember when i went to school or somewhere else she always said that i should behave like everyone else she worked a lot because of this, we never saw her during the day, only in the evenings when all the other families
11:46 am
got together. we could see our parents on the weekend . and we could also go to the hungarian castle together. always remained a priority what would you like lollipops ice cream yes you ice cream he loves him very much he immediately went to him and left the relationship was intermittent because there were things and programs that no one could change but she always tried to find time for regular communication with the children britain was very there were times when it seemed that the queen was completely relaxed, she was freed from the pressure of the work of the country, but there was always
11:47 am
a feeling that there were some other extremely important things that needed to be done where to go as a child, i was always with her on these trips, it was probably the best way to understand what they wanted from you and how to do it, it wasn't too easy, every word of yours mattered , you couldn't just study in silence, well, jump in there was a very special relationship, unlike my three brothers, in fact , such a relationship developed. i will always remember her, family

first of all. but after work day after day, constitutional duties absorbed almost all of the queen's time, and everything began with an endless stream every night we handed her a red box full of papers, cabinet documents, intelligence reports, telegrams, every morning they came back to us read and marked since the time of winston churchill, she knew all the important secrets of britain, some of which no one knew anymore as the head of state, only the monarch has the right to convene or conclude the sessions of the parliament and appoint the prime minister, she knew well those whom she appointed and communicated with them at weekly meetings your majesty your majesty ...
11:49 am
this is the only place where the prime minister can stay alone with someone as informed as the queen and knowing that everything would stay within the confines of a meeting to be sure that information would not be shared just the two of you talking to each other when things were really bad like war and peace or a government crisis and difficult decisions had to be made these meetings were a chance
11:50 am
to talk to someone and hear wise words these were things that are not able to discuss with anyone else she was very good at expressing an opinion without giving direct advice apart from regular meetings with her prime ministers the queen had a wide circle ceremonial duties from the processes of knights of the order of the garter in the dawn to garden receptions in buckingham palace and bare rudhouse, which were visited by more than 30,000 guests every year during her lifetime, the queen presented more than 400,000 decorations and awards, this is a sign of gratitude and recognition of a- and her recognition of the things they accomplished, the sense of pride and high self- esteem she gave people were worth a lot every year in june nadia's official

there were serious changes to be queen means to withstand all the storms and winds of change that are blowing around the 1970s were quite a stormy and politically extreme decade when republican sentiments strengthened, in particular in scotland some students started knocking on windows shouting out the queen groups of students, many of whom were drunk, accompanied the queen everywhere, protesting against the expenses of the royal visit , they sang songs on the bed and even threw the stink bomb, the queen remained unmoved and no hooligans could touch her, the celebration of her silver jubilee in 1977 became a kind of test of the institution of the monarchy, she easily withstood it with the help of large-scale street parties and an emotional address that recalled the promise

she made on her birthday when she was still a princess when i am 21 years old i promised to devote my life to the service of my people i asked god to help me fulfill this oath although i promised this when i was very young and inexperienced, i do not regret and do not take back any of my words, she was not going to retreat or evade the promise, her decision was subjected to new and new tests, and the most severe happened in 1979, when the northern irish republicans began to threaten her family, the man she called uncle dickie, lord louis maldbeten, died as a result of an explosion during a boat trip, the
11:55 am
queen suffered a terrible loss, but she knew that it was for her husband prince philip to know that he had lost the second most important person in his life will be a devastating blow. it added a sense of vulnerability, added to the belief that the royal family and its supporters could become targets, it shook them to their very foundations, the most serious challenges in the queen's life did not arise due to external factors, but due to internal family problems, and it is not surprising, because he zori is a self-proclaimed royal dynasty who is proud of the observance of christian values, after her own wedding the queen gave a speech in which she condemned divorce, but in modern monarchies it is difficult to avoid the disintegration of the family first divorced in close to the queen's family track
