411
We can both see what's going on here.

412

A young couple are playing marital[A1]  games

413

with the most cherished[A2]  parts

of our history and pageantry[A3] .

414

Our Queen wouldn't agree with a single one

of these radical proposals,

415

television being just the tip

of the iceberg[A4] .

416

She's simply trying to keep peace

in her own bed chamber

417

by promoting her husband

and keeping him happy and occupied[A5] 

418

and virile[A6] .

419

-That's what's going on here, Winston.

-Why? What else has he proposed?

-Prime Minister.

-Your Majesty.

421

Please tell me this has nothing to do

with my husband.

422 

I told him not to go mad.

423

No one is questioning

the Duke of Edinburgh's motives[A7] 

424

or the sincerity[A8]  of his beliefs.

425

I see. He went mad.

426

The changes he is proposing

to an ancient, sacred,

427

never previously[A9]  changed

liturgy[A10]  and text...

428

It went from top to toe[A11] .

429

And if it were just a business,

it would be applauded.

430

But this isn't a business. It's the Crown.

431

And one has to ask oneself...

432

What is the purpose of the Crown?

What is the purpose of the monarchy?

433

Does the Crown bend

to the will of the people

434

to be audited[A12]  and accountable?[A13] 

435

Or should it remain

above temporal matters?

436

What say you?

437

No, ma'am. What say you?

438

The decision is yours to make.

439

We will take our lead from you.

440

We just wondered if you might be available

for a brief moment in the vestry[A14] .

441

Alright.
