Thank you ?

Thank you

Just watched it.

What a lovely, poignant programme, with much of the narration by the Queen herself.

Highly recommended,

?

Just watched it and I did enjoy it.

I’m going to watch it on catchup. I love home movie stuff!

Just watched it, thank you, and thoroughly enjoyed it. I think having the Queen narrate added to the personal aspect of the programme.

Just watched it. Well worth it. I agree with you mamaa

Really enjoyed it. Shed much more light on their family life. Quite joyous and loving.

Sad to see her father’s early decline but not uncommon in the 1950s.

Really enjoyed it. So lovely to hear the Queen narrating.

Loved it!

Really enjoyed it. It`s the first time I`ve seen pics of George 6th coronation. I remember being told at school that the king had died.

Very enjoyable.

We enjoyed it too.

I enjoyed it. I like watching old footage and films of anything.

Interesting to get a glimpse of the King chatting to the nun who must have been Prince Philip’s mother. Was it at Balmoral?

Yes, we noticed that, too.
It was at Balmoral I think and she must have been visiting from Greece at that time, although I think she spent her last two years here after the Greek Junta took over.

yes, I thought that was Phillip'smother with the King at Balmoral

She does sound a rather endearing character in her later years.
According to Gyles Brandreth in his biography of the Duke of Edinburgh,

"They say you could always tell when she was coming along the corridor because of the whiff of Woodbines in the air. The idea of the Duke of Edinburgh’s mum, dressed as a nun, sucking on her Woodbine… it’s wonderful!"

She was a very brave woman.

She sheltered Jewish refugees from the Nazis in Greece during WW2 and later founded a nursing order.
She was awarded the honour of Righteous Among Nations for her work during the war.

I didn’t watch it. I was sorry to miss “Antiques Roadshow”!

I recorded it as I had company but will enjoy catching up with it tomorrow. It sounds good.

Prince Charles and Princess Anne as babies and toddlers. Prince Charles always looked worried and serious, even as a small child. Anne was much livelier.l

The Queen herself as a toddler and as a very pretty little girl was quite recognisable.

What a marvelous programme.
