in engagements and particularly her own annual carol service she hosts for the charities at westminster abbeyooks to be on the cards. so i think we will see her at some of the set piece events and when we started to see her engaging with the public and doing walkabout and acted out with william, that is not clear yet. but there is a desire for us in the next few months to see more of the princess of wales again. and in terms of the detail, these are the pictures i was screen, tell us more about over what period of time they were shot. , , ., ., shot. these were shot over the summer and — shot. these were shot over the summer and this _ shot. these were shot over the summer and this is _ shot. these were shot over the summer and this is north - summer and this is north norfolk close to where the couple have a country house. it has become a real retreat and a safe space for them as a family. people live in that part of north norfolk say they have seen out and about over the summer on walks in on the beach, sailing on the water. so they have been sites of them doing the normal holiday things you

and all that westminster abbey.and all that business about kids getting smaller and what do they call it? the obesity crisis levelling off. don't believe it. that's another thing i don't believe it's never been worse. absolutely if you just sit, you can sit at a bus stop and just watch anybody going by sit at a football match, sit at a concert, do whatever you want. people are fat as whatever they're fat and they're hugely fat. they're disgustingly fat. and there's no point saying i'm fat or isabel's fat or whatever, whatever. we don't even come near to what you see. waddling around the streets out there, and the amount of women involved is absolutely frightening . it's is absolutely frightening. it's really hard to see a woman that is within normal weight range. >> i'd be intrigued to know how they're measuring kids, because certainly neither of my children have had their weight monitored, so i don't know what the figures are based on, i hope it's true. i would like to think that our children are not all growing up

and just to remember, it's westminster abbey andifs remember, it's westminster abbey and it's a really completely well, and you know , get back and work. that's know, get back and work. that's that's her sort of ambition, and thinking that she's spent all that time as well just planning, we're all excited about this concert and it's the annual together concert. i think that's what it's called. and just to remember, it's westminster abbey andifs remember, it's westminster abbey and it's a really huge deal, she's she's host, hosted and worked on this for four years. and to remember, it's the sort of local charities and we have celebrities there each year. >> so it's absolutely it's been a staple hasn't it. it's become a staple hasn't it. it's become a staple hasn't it. it's become a staple to see princess catherine at this carol concert is very much a part of the festive calendar, for i'm sure millions of people in this country and possibly around around the world too. we're also looking out for her to be at the try and fit in. if she will try and fit in. if she feels well. i'm just tryi

yes, absolutely. >> so there are about 3300, memorials and tombs and graves within westminster abbey.casions when there a number of occasions when the queen's been there. the late queen has been there. and if you look , they walk around it. they look, they walk around it. they come in the west door. the dean of westminster greets them and they walk around it, but they walk 20 yards further down across a memorial stone for winston churchill. the unknown warrior is precinct . and that, i warrior is precinct. and that, i think, tells you a lot about the sense of loss and the sense of grief. back in 1920 and how important it is today. and it's a magnificent, magnificent memorial tomb. a way of remembering huge loss . half remembering huge loss. half a million, half a million with no known grave. never mind .just known grave. never mind. just over the million that that , that over the million that that, that were killed. and you're we're seeing pictures there when that tomb was unveiled in 1920, there were people they'd had a lottery for tickets, and there were widows there who'd lost a so

, and there are there is planning, i understand, for the annual traditional carol concert at westminster abbeymber , and for the princess december, and for the princess to attend the remembrance sunday service at the cenotaph in central london in november. amongst a number of other engagements, perhaps including some early childhood engagements as well. a deep passion of the princess of wales. but none of thatis princess of wales. but none of that is confirmed, and what i can read into that is that are still very much good days and bad days with her health, and i think it's going to be much closer to the time when kensington palace feel comfortable enough, when the princess feels well enough to confirm that she will be attending those engagements. that video, shot in norfolk by a very trusted independent videographer for the prince and princess of wales will war. he also shot the behind the scenes video of the prince and princess and their children during the coronation in may 2023 that behind the scenes video we've also had a update from the king and queen this afternoon who have expressed th

. concert at westminster abbey.baby steps, but it's certainly a step in the right direction. >> yeah, and i guess, you know, she'd probably want to get back to some sense of normality by getting back to work. who can blame her? and yeah, long may it continue . cameron, can we just continue. cameron, can we just touch on prince harry? he's of course returning to the uk on monday without meghan markle. do you think maybe he'd give the princess of wales a quick visit, if not his brother ? if not his brother? >> i suspect not, we did get a message from the prince and princess of wales's social media account on sunday, wishing the duke of sussex a very happy 40th birthday, but it wasn't signed off with w and c, le. william and catherine, so they personally didn't write the tweet. but i doubt that their team would have posted that without the prince and princess's permission to do so now, because prince harry, no longer a working member of the royal family it's not automatic that a royal social media account , either buck

the cenotaph. >> and subsequently, very definitely for one of the highlights of the year at westminster abbeyso, richard, we have a quick 50s here before we have to end this hour . so 50s here before we have to end this hour. so when can we 50s here before we have to end this hour . so when can we expect this hour. so when can we expect any details , for example, of the any details, for example, of the choice of carols? because, i mean, that's what people really want to know. what are the details? when are they going to come out? >> well, i don't know when they will be released. remember, even now , these meetings and these now, these meetings and these details, they're being very, very carefully managed. what we've got is a very, very good news. but there's no doubt, as she made clear in her recent video message, there is still some way to go. and being cancer free is her priority, obviously. so let's hope. and also let's hope we might see her at the albert hall for the festival of remembrance. >> just a thought. >> just a thought. >> thank you. richard, we have to leave it there. thank you

maybe at the cenotaph in november, maybe her carol concert at westminster abbey at christmas time.idence, obviously she knows that the love has been expressed out there, and i'm sure she's been had sackfuls of supportive letters. but it's great that she can feel the confidence to come out in this way and tell us how she's feeling, how she's getting on, and the prospects for the future. and we can only hope that their good prospects and that their good prospects and that her every moment is a better moment than the one before. >> and in terms of the direction of travel of her treatment, michael cole, she does say here, although i have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long and i must continue to take each day as it comes. so there isn't the fantastic news that the cancer is in remission. but this stage, this painful stage, which so many people know is so difficult to go through this arduous stage, at least this stage seems to be over. and now she's looking forward in a more positive way here, talking about hoping to return to work. so there's a positive

of engagements over the next few months, particularly plans for the annual carol concert at westminster abbey think when we do get confirmation, it's going to be very close to the day, getting the sense she's still has good days and bad days with her health and cameron, it was extraordinary. >> the video, in the sense that we got unfettered access to their public displays of affection between not just the catherine and william, but also the children, catherine, especially with her arm around charlotte. and you saw some really heartwarming clips between all of them, i guess , between all of them, i guess, frolicking around in the sand dunes and walking through corn fields and so on. it was beautiful. >> yeah, and i think most families can relate to the kind of shots we saw in that video. i don't remember a time where a royal family video has been quite so intimate and giving you such an insight into their very private world. and yeah, there's been some kind of allegations, if you remember, i hate to go back to harry and meghan, but do you remember when meghan said in the netflix documentary th

or was it westminster abbey, you know, it's just ludicrous. >> we just need to get like some.or who can make things efficient. we will sort things efficient. we will sort things out. >> what we'll do, we'll if we don't fundamentally change the nhs, we'll just continue to tinker around the edges . it's as tinker around the edges. it's as simple as that. and it's going to take some extreme political, i think we've got it to do it. i don't , because the unions will don't, because the unions will wade in. let's see if we can do it. >> and it's a challenge. >> and it's a challenge. >> but the bottom line is the first thing we have to do is not allow the nhs to hide behind politicians . they the nhs is in politicians. they the nhs is in a state. it is because of the people in the nhs at the top of the nhs. they need to get grip. >> this what we're seeing now is not what got anything to do with wes streeting. it's not got anything to do with keir starmer, really, i don't think. i don't really believe it's got that much to do with the tories that much to do with the tories that went b

battle of britain day, on my way to the studio , i day, on my way to the studio, i drove past westminster abbeye service to commemorate the annual service to commemorate the battle of britain day was taking place. and what more stark and moving reminder could we have of the need to stand up to aggression and i think it's right that the new government has adopted the same policy as the previous government in standing shoulder to shoulder with president zelenskyy and the ukrainian people . and therefore, i think people. and therefore, i think it's right that keir has been in washington this week, and it's right that he's pressing washington to say that we collectively agree that both our missile system that we can supply and the missile system that the us can supply can both be used on targets in russia, not targets on moscow, but targets sort of 100, 150 miles inside russia , which are where inside russia, which are where those the russians are nightly bombarding targets in ukraine. >> do you think that position that you've just articulated is felt as naturally throughout the labour party as i w

and i suspect that maybe when it comes to the planning, for example, of the carol concert at westminster abbeyg the remembrance sunday service at the cenotaph as two examples, i suspect we're not going to find out or have confirmation of her attending until very close to the time indeed, because of course, you have to remember, if they announce something a week in advance and she had a bad day the day before she was meant to go on this public engagement and she has to pull out last minute. you can just imagine the media speculation and the public panic that would happen. so i can see why that perhaps would happen. >> it's interesting, isn't it, that it was the middletons in this video. it was granny and grandpa playing cards around the table with the kids, and i noficed table with the kids, and i noticed that james middleton, her brother, we've just seen a picture there. he posted this, this image and this was when she was diagnosed with cancer. this was diagnosed with cancer. this was a few few months ago now. and he'd said on there over the years we've we've climbed many mountains together. i
