Learning English With Tv Series, The Crown Episode 4 Part 6

213

I'm not sure that my husband

would agree with that.

214

He would argue

that in any equitable[A1]  modern society,

215

that church and state

should be separated.

216

That if God has servants

they're priests not kings.

217

He would also say that he watched

his own family destroyed,

218

because they were seen by the people

to embody[A2]  indefensible[A3] 

219

and unreasonable[A4]  ideas.

220

Yes, but he represents a royal family

of carpetbaggers[A5]  and parvenus[A6] ,

221

that goes back what? Ninety years?

222

What would he know of Alfred the Great,

the Rod[A7]  of Equity[A8]  and Mercy[A9] ,

223

Edward the Confessor[A10] ,

224

William the Conqueror

or Henry the Eighth?

225

It's the Church of England, dear,

not the Church of Denmark or Greece.

226

Next question.

227

[Collins] It's chaos out there. Trains

disrupted[A11], air services cancelled.

228

At Richmond Bridge this morning,

229

visibility was officially measured

at one yard.

230

That's a record low, incidentally[A12] .

231

Our Trojan friend in Downing Street

has been speaking

232

to his friends at the Met office.

233

They say this is just the beginning.

They expect it to get worse.

234

I know you would have me call

a vote of no confidence[A13] ,

235

and will doubtless[A14]  call me

over-cautious[A15]  for not doing so.

236

But the Prime Minister

needs to be given a chance[A16] .

237

Even if it's only to hang himself.

238

Let's see how the old fool responds.

239

[pedestrians[A17] cough]

240

-[horse whickers[A18] ]

-[man] There you go. There you go.

241

[man 2] Hey! Get out the way!

242

[chesty[A19]  coughing]

243

[Venetia] Morning.

244

Oh. I'm glad to see someone else made it

in. No one saw this coming, did they?

245

No.
