Buckingham Palace has declined to comment about the recent leak of the documentary or its contents. Here are five key moments fromIn one scene, the queen dines with Philip, Charles and Anne at a small round table. The monarch discusses a meeting with a man an official previously described to her as a "gorilla," as her family laughs.
"It's extremely difficult sometimes to keep a straight face...he came in beforehand like they do and he said to me, 'There's a gorilla coming in.' So I said to him, 'An extraordinary remark to make, very unkind, about anybody,'" the monarch says. "I stood in the middle of the room and pressed the bell, and the doors opened and there was a gorilla! And I had the most terrible trouble in keeping- you know, he had a short body and long arms.
The little boy is later seen sitting and lying on his stomach on top of the roof of the family's car, shouting happily, "I climbed on the roof, Papa!" Charles dresses a salad he helped prepare and chats with his mother. He says, "I cut the lettuce." At the prince's request to taste the dressing, the queen dips her finger into the liquid, licks it, and declares it to be too "oily."
"The salad is ready," the queen later tells her husband. He looks at his undercooked steak and says, "Good. This, as you see, isn't."In another scene, the family trims a giant Christmas tree. Anne sternly tells Andrew to get off a step-ladder, to which he loudly refuses.
Just watched it on youtube, definitely NOT removed, & I really can’t see why Her Majesty is so horrified by it. It was somewhat dated, of course, but otherwise charming & I don’t think it harms the integrity of the Royals at all. Wrong it was made public but not a catastrophe.
Found it on YouTube Wow it’s very difficult to watch with that type of quality and it just seems such a boring life RoyalDocumentary
Clearly something one there they don't want people seeing again. I knew there was more to this than a simple copyright violation.
