A unique celebration of the Queen's ninety years as she reaches her landmark birthday in April. Film-maker John Bridcut has been granted special access to the complete collection of Her Majesty's personal ciné films, shot by the Duke of Edinburgh and the Queen herself, as well as by King George VI and Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother. Much of it has never been seen publicly before. Various members of the Royal Family are filmed watching this private footage and contributing their own personal insights and their memories of the woman they know both as a member of their own close family and as queen. Among those taking part are the Prince of Wales, the Duke of Cambridge, Prince Harry, the Princess Royal, the Duke of Kent and his sister Princess Alexandra, who has never before given an interview.
Tess and I recently watched this program on Netflix and really enjoyed it. Tess is a lifelong Anglophile and a staunch royalist (and I've lived and worked in England several times and love the country too) and has watched MANY documentaries on the royals but she loved this because she said that it finally showed the world that the Windsors have always been a "normal", loving family who have gone through good times and bad, and survived with dignity and that Diana Spencer did not "humanize" them because they were already human and deserving of respect. (My little pitbull defends others too). Princes William and Harry and other family members and friends clearly enjoyed watching the home movies as much as we did and we both agree that Prince Charles will (someday) be a very good King.
