587
Long to reign over [A1] us

588

 God save the Queen

589

I need to speak to my sister.

590

Now!

591

Switchboard[A2] .

592

Her Royal Highness needs

to make an urgent call

593

to Her Majesty the Queen.

594

-A secure line will be required.

-Putting you through.

595

Foreign Office.

How may I direct your call?

596

Buckingham Palace. Victoria 48, 32.

597

I have Her Royal Highness

the Princess Margaret

598

for Her Majesty the Queen.

599

Sir.

600

Sir.

601

Princess Margaret

for Her Majesty the Queen.

602

-On a secure line.

-Of course!

603

What's taking so long?

604

Well, I gather

we have the secure line, ma'am.

605

They're just having trouble

locating[A3]  Her Majesty.

606

What can be so difficult? She's the Queen.

She's fairly[A4]  conspicuous[A5] .

607

She can't disappear.

608

 [phones ring]

612

[phone rings]

613

Sandringham House, good evening.

614

Yes, sir. She's here.

Arrived about an hour ago.

615

Yes, sir, right away.

616

Ma'am, I've located the Queen.

617

 [man] The strip made up for it [A6] at Ascot

618

but we're really trying

not to let this happen again.

619

 [Elizabeth] I think

he's a little bit inexperienced.

620

-What, the jockey, ma'am?

-Yes, I do.

621

-[woman] Telephone, Your Majesty.

-Right.

622

Yes, I'd like his scope[A7]  recorded for

the first quarter[A8]  mile tomorrow morning.

623

Yes, ma'am.

624

And then we might have to think

about pairing [A9] him with another rider.

625

 [man] Yes, ma'am.

626

Yes?

627

-How could you?

-Margaret.

628

You gave me your word. Promised me

he'd still be there when I got back.

629

-I did.

-Why has he been sent away?

630

-Banished like some criminal?

-Things got out of hand.

631

I took you at your word.

Believed everything you said.

632

How happy you were for me.

How you would support us.

633

Margaret.

634

You've been against us

from the beginning.

635

-Because you can't bear to be eclipsed[A10] .

-What?

636

Can't bear to be outshone[A11] 

by your younger sister.

637

You've never liked it. Admit it.

638

You've hated how Peter and I

caught the popular imagination.

639

-Hated it enough to want to destroy it.

-This is madness.

640

Well, you fail to protect me.

I will fail to protect you in return.

641

Margaret.

642

You reap what you sow[A12] , sister.

643

 [Philip] "The laws of England say

that any man, once divorced,

644

is fully entitled[A13] to marry again.

645

If those laws are good enough

for England,

646

they are good enough

for the Royal family."

647

I know, but--

648

"The near-holy reverence[A14]  shown

for the Crown

649

by the people of Britain

is a fact of life,

650

as the recent coronation has shown."

651

 [woman] "Few other countries in the world

retain[A15] such regard[A16]  for their monarchies.

652

But are those centuries of awe[A17] 

drawing to [A18] an end?

653

Can that veneration[A19]  be sustained

in the light of the Royal family's cruelty

654

to its very own members?"

655

 [Duke of Windsor] "The Royal family

in Britain has survived a thousand proofs

656

that it is artificial[A20]  and superfluous[A21] 

657

and seems to have as deep a hold as ever

on the loyalties of the people.

658

It is not likely[A22] , however,

to survive the clear proof

659

that it is insensate[A23]  and cruel."

660
[shrieks]

661

"The treatment of her sister

has now jeopardized the future

662

of the monarchy in Britain."

663

In 48 hours, it will have passed.

664

If you're lucky.

665

I fear it will take longer than that

for Margaret to forgive me.

666

She will in time, she has to.

667

We all have to.

668

-Your Majesty.

-Be right with you.

669

-Hello, Mike. Where are you going?

-I told you. I was away for the weekend.

670

-Did you?

-Baron's having a house party.

671

-Who's Baron?

-Baron Nahoum.

672

President of our Lunch Club.

673

Don't look like that.

It's gentlemen only, right?

674

Absolutely.

675

Perfectly innocent.

676

-Shall we, old boy?

-Yes, I think let's.

677

Snifter[A24]  en route[A25] , eh?
