Midday, 54 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 9: she was giving her first major policy announcement in the 55 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 9: House of Commons on a new deal to sort out 56 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 9: energy bills, when a note was passed to her by 57 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 9: her colleague Nueemdahawi, who is the Chancellor of the Dutcher 58 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 9: of Lancaster, and that informed her of that first statement 59 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 9: that we were getting a few minutes later from Buckingham 60 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 9: Pallace that following evaluation, the Queen's doctors had recommended that 61 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 9: she stay under medical supervision at val Morals. So we 62 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 9: saw her react in real time for receiving that news, 63 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 9: as well as other senior members and the opposition as well. 64 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 9: Now the briefing that I've just attended has made it 65 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 9: clear that Prime Minister was then in Downing Street and 66 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 9: at four point thirty this afternoon, so two hours before 67 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 9: the official announcement went out, she was informed by her 68 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 9: Cabinet secretary that the Queen had passed away at bal Moral. 69 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 9: That announcement has said, went out at six thirty publicly, 70 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 9: and shortly after around seven o'clock, the Prime Minister spoke 71 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 9: on Downing Streets, giving a statement in which she called 72 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 9: the Queen the foundation of modern Britain and paid tribute 73 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 9: to her decades of service. Now we understand the Prime 74 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 9: Minister after that statement spoke to King Charles the Third, 75 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 9: which takes some getting used to saying years he's been 76 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 9: Prince Charles, the Prince of Wales, but now it is 77 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 9: confirmed to King Charles the Third, and a few moments 78 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 9: ago a meeting god underway between as the Prime Minister, 79 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 9: the relevant government secretaries, heads of departments, palace officials and 80 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,599 Speaker 9: the police and military officials to go through plans for 81 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 9: what will now be ten days of official mourning starting tomorrow, 82 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 9: which will culminate, we believe, in the state funeral on 83 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 9: the nineteenth of September. 84 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 2: We're looking at the images now, as obviously the flags 85 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 2: here are half masked, but as it falls of nine pm, 86 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 2: I think your time, Vincent, we're looking at the people 87 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 2: gathering outside Buckingham Palace, and when you talk about ten 88 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 2: days of mourning, what does that look like is that 89 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 2: all businesses shut down? What are the services that are 90 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 2: still on offer when people take that moment for ten 91 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 2: days to recognize the queen. 92 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 9: Well, we're still waiting for confirmation now, the reason that 93 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 9: I was in they didn't want to step on toes 94 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 9: the palace. Who will sort of put out official words 95 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 9: in the next few hours and we'll get a picture. 96 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 9: There have been lots of rumors about what exactly would happen, 97 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 9: and plans of course changed. So the plans for the 98 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:14,119 Speaker 9: monarch's death was known widely as Operation London Bridge. Because 99 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 9: she's actually died in Scotland, it is now known as 100 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 9: Operation Unicorn. A different plan kicked into place because for 101 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 9: anyone that doesn't know about, Moral is near to the 102 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,799 Speaker 9: city of Abscene, which is in the northeast of Scotland, 103 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 9: a long way from London. So there will be a 104 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 9: plan in place now to return her to London in 105 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 9: the coming days and then she will lie in state, 106 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 9: and then of course we will have the funerals. So 107 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 9: it's quite we're waiting for confirmation of all the details. 108 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 9: Yet what we do know is things like sports associations 109 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 9: are being given the option of whether they will cancel 110 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 9: fixtures in this period. I think many of them will do. 111 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 9: We know comedy can't be played on television. Radio stations 112 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 9: have played softer music during this period, I think we'll 113 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 9: see most public events, to be honest, canceled. Governmentations will stop. 114 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 9: There is some emergency legislation we understand that has to 115 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 9: be put through in order to get this energy emergency 116 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 9: package done. That will likely the first piece of live 117 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 9: station which receives royal assents by King Charles the Third, 118 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 9: and that will need some parliamentary time to get it through. 119 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 9: So at the moment it's still unclear exactly, but it 120 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 9: will be an impact on British public life the likes 121 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 9: of which we haven't seen, and the state funeral the 122 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 9: size of which I don't think the world will have seen. 123 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 9: I don't think we'll have bee afection of world leaders 124 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 9: of this size ever before, or potentially ever again, because 125 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 9: every leader in the world who is invited will likely 126 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 9: make their way to London. 127 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 3: Well, just quickly, before you go, can you just tell 128 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 3: us where will she be lied to race? 129 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: For anyone that does it now? In Australia, Vincent, where 130 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:48,679 Speaker 1: will she be lied to rast. 131 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 9: I would anticipate, and this is not confirmed yet, but 132 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 9: I would anticipate it will be in Windsor, which is 133 00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 9: where the Duke of Edinburgh is laid to rest. And 134 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 9: also she spent the last few years of her life 135 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,039 Speaker 9: there in the bubble that performed for her during the pandemic, 136 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 9: but also because of her childhood during the blitz in 137 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 9: the Second World War, It's where she spent much of 138 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 9: her time as a young girl a little bit so 139 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 9: she was known then, and so I expect she will 140 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 9: be laid to rest there. 141 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 3: Well, we appreciate you, Tim, you know how busy you are. Vincent, 142 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 3: thank you very much for coming on the show. 143 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 10: Thank you. 144 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 3: How good is he exploring our amazing backyard again. 145 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 2: And taking off all the big Gussie things pineapples, bananas, melons. 146 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 1: For hearing you say that makes me hungry? 147 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 2: Head to what if dot com and start planning your 148 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 2: big Ossie adventure. 149 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: What if It's Ozzie for travel. 150 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 3: We're celebrating the life of Queen Elizabeth the Second this 151 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 3: morning if you're just waking up. At three point thirty am, 152 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 3: we received the news that she had passed away and Sarah. 153 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 3: Obviously the family getting together. A majority of the family 154 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 3: were their bedside for her. 155 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, I've thought it was really sad though, because obviously 156 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 4: you saw her four children and Prince William was driving 157 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 4: all of them except King Childs who was already there 158 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 4: with Camilla. Kate Middleton's not there, Mega Markle's not there. 159 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 4: But Prince Harry he was in the air apparently when 160 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 4: it happened. His flight manifest showed he landed fifteen minutes 161 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 4: after she'd passed, and now there's footage of him driving. 162 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 4: So I don't know, I find that really sad. 163 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 2: I saw those images. Says, you're right, I mean he was. 164 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,119 Speaker 2: Prince Harry was obviously very close to Philip but also 165 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 2: the Queen. They had a special relationship and I think 166 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 2: given the option, had he known. But at the same time, 167 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 2: there were grave concerns in the part in the previous 168 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 2: few days, because, for one, we know how strong the 169 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 2: Queen is and the Queen has been, so for her 170 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 2: to miss any appointment or any engage engagement very much 171 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 2: goes against the efforts that being made. So if she's 172 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 2: missing appointments, you know that something is not right. And 173 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:51,679 Speaker 2: we also saw those images of her greeting the new 174 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 2: UK Prime Minister, Liz Trust only days away, days ago, 175 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 2: should I say, And that was considered the last photo, 176 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 2: but she looked slightly frail and so a huge effort 177 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 2: was made for her to have that moment. 178 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 4: I'll tell you what I find fascinating that as part 179 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 4: of the days of commemoration that happened now the ten 180 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 4: days or twelve days, that there's three days where the 181 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 4: public can go twenty three hours a day. The body 182 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 4: is there for you to go and visit. 183 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 1: There's a viewing. 184 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, but I don't know. I don't think it would 185 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 4: be an open customer. Well, I just think, don't think so. No, 186 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,439 Speaker 4: three days of that, I mean, that's pretty amazing. Imagine 187 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 4: the cues of people who'll be going to see her. 188 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 3: What church will ween where there's all the tombs of 189 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 3: previous queens and kingsdow Yeah, which is really eerie to 190 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:41,199 Speaker 3: walk on. 191 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 2: That's Saint George's Cathedral if I'm correct, King George and George. 192 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 4: That's her father, and that's where her father is and 193 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 4: that's where they thought she might be laid to rest. 194 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 2: Says, I believe the Queen Mother is also there, so yeah, 195 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 2: naturally you thought, as far as the family goes, that 196 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 2: would be her final resting place. 197 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 4: But it's not where Philip is because the gentleman we 198 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 4: just spoke to me here said that he was elsewhere, 199 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 4: so it's not sure. 200 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: See. 201 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 3: I'm really worried over the next few days as well 202 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 3: because Meghan wasn't there. But they are saying that Meghan 203 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:15,559 Speaker 3: Markaele will eventually join the family. But Jesus, the pressure 204 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 3: that Harry and Meghan are going to be over the 205 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 3: next few days with all these royal insiders that are 206 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 3: coming out, well. 207 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 2: I would hope that the news services focus on the queen. 208 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 4: I think they will. I think they'll hold on. And 209 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 4: Kate Middleton wasn't there either, and she and the Queen 210 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 4: were very close. She was with the kids. It was 211 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 4: their first day at school at their new school. 212 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 3: Catherine wasn't there. We just found out as well. Catherine 213 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,679 Speaker 3: wasn't there because it was the first day at school. 214 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 3: Well that's Kate, Yahate, Sorry. 215 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, no, no, So she and William dropped the 216 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,959 Speaker 4: kids at their new school and then he obviously had 217 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 4: to go and she stayed. So yeah, hopefully they leave 218 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:49,119 Speaker 4: Megan alone. 219 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 2: I mean you take comfort that she obviously passed peacefully, 220 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 2: as the reports say here.

Apparently he's seen the Queen run 538 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 3: as well. Someone told me I didn't know the Queen 539 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 3: could run. No one's seen the Queen run. 540 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 2: No, No, I think, as we were touching on earlier 541 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 2: as well, says the Queen really represents the grandmother to everybody. 542 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 2: She the image of the Queen which we grew up 543 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 2: knowing because it was on the back of every note 544 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,679 Speaker 2: and every coin. And every stamp and whatever it might be, 545 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 2: and also being part of the Commonwealth. She represented your 546 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:56,920 Speaker 2: own granny in a way. 547 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 4: You know, granny had a haircut, your mum says die 548 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 4: and your grannie had the queen. 549 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: Cut away better nick than my grandma Hazel. 550 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 2: Hazel didn't go. 551 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,880 Speaker 3: Hazel was down at the porta Longa hotel playing piano 552 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 3: in one hand and she had a schooner in the 553 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:12,160 Speaker 3: other one. 554 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 4: The Queen didn't do so as well. 555 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:16,239 Speaker 1: Well. 556 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 2: You should have seen the coin of bucket and palace 557 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 2: after a couple. 558 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:24,880 Speaker 3: And Whipper podcast Sarah. 559 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 4: Obviously the top trending stories around the world are the 560 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 4: passing of Queen Elizabeth. It's pretty amazing. I mean, poor 561 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,880 Speaker 4: Prince Harry. We are hearing that he arrived about an 562 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 4: hour after she had passed away, so he did not 563 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 4: obviously get to spend time with her before it happened. 564 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 4: What he says, he was in the air. He and Meghan, 565 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 4: apparently knowing she was unwell, had tried to come back 566 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 4: and so Meghan's in London. Harry's jumped on a flight 567 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 4: to go to Bellmoral, but was in the air unfortunately 568 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 4: when it all happened. 569 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: He would have seen her. They've been back in the UK. 570 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 4: They hadn't They hadn't seen her. That's the thing. They 571 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:04,680 Speaker 4: hadn't seen this video. Yeah, because she's been in Scotland 572 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 4: and they were in the UK and then they went 573 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 4: to Germany for the Invictus Games. So yeah, feeling very 574 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 4: sad for him. Interestingly, though, given the passing of the Queen, 575 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 4: his two children are now technically prince and princess, and 576 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 4: obviously there was that conversation around whether or not they 577 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 4: would get titles, and Charles can say no because we 578 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 4: know he's trying to slim line the royal family. But 579 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 4: at this stage they do have Prince and Princess His 580 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 4: Royal Highness titles if they choose to use them. 581 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 2: If you go back to what you know, a lot 582 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:38,399 Speaker 2: of the conversation is and was about earlier on in 583 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 2: that he was the royal title that Harry held was removed. 584 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 4: No, well, Harry's still a prince. They've just they're not 585 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:52,639 Speaker 4: working royals, so Beatrice and usually the best option is 586 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 4: Princess Zara Tindall. She's not a working royal, but she 587 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 4: still has the title and these children would be the same. 588 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 4: We were talking before about you know, the cost of 589 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 4: the funeral and then Charles's coronation. I didn't realize. William 590 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 4: then has a ceremony to make him the Prince of Wales, 591 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 4: and they're saying that on these days, these days become 592 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 4: public holidays, and so the banks in the UK and 593 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 4: the stock exchange don't open, which could cost the economy 594 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 4: up to ten point eight billion dollars, which is pretty 595 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 4: amazing to get your head around. But that's just how 596 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:28,120 Speaker 4: important it is. 597 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 2: I wonder what Charles thinks too, now that he becomes 598 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 2: King Charles the third, in terms of being seventy three 599 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,360 Speaker 2: years old, does he adopt the royal duties simply as 600 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 2: the queen was doing and his life is now ceremony 601 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 2: and royal engagements. 602 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 4: But that's all that's what he was doing anyway. He's 603 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 4: known to be one of the hardest working royals. 604 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 1: I just hope it's seventy three superannuation is all right, 605 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: because obviously the economy is not as a bit shaky 606 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 1: at the moment as well. You worried about well I am. 607 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 2: Financially to Elena. 608 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: Did he have shares in the No, Well, he's superannuation 609 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: was with aim. 610 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 4: Your very thoughtful fits. I think more He now has 611 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 4: did two of the UK and I feel sad for him. 612 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 4: Wouldn't you just want time to remember your mum? You 613 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 4: feel sad for Harry having time to you know, this 614 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 4: was a family member for these guys, you know, mother 615 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 4: and grandmother. 616 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I felt for Harry, says. I think it's 617 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 2: quite a relatable story to attempt to rush home to 618 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 2: say goodbye to someone that's about to pass and losing 619 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 2: someone when you're in the air. I think that's happened 620 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 2: to a lot of people. 621 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 4: I agree. And the photos of him in the car 622 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 4: driving to see her, he looks quite distressed. Of course, 623 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 4: it's quite sad to watch some tributes from around the 624 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 4: world obviously. I mean it's been phenomenal. I can't even 625 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 4: start to tell you. Everybody obviously posting their feelings on 626 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 4: social media, and some celebrities because we know she had 627 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 4: this funny, silly side as well. She could you know, 628 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 4: have a laugh, and she met celebrities all the time, 629 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 4: and at times like this these stories come to liight again, 630 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 4: some of them being you know Michelle Obama when she 631 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 4: broke protocol and just grabbed the Queen in a cuddle 632 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 4: when you're not supposed to do that, and the queen 633 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 4: so well, the Queen just laughed and sort of went 634 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 4: with it. You know Anna Winter, the editor of Vogue, 635 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 4: who refused to take her sunglasses off, which feels a 636 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 4: little bit on the nose. But you know the Americans, yeah, 637 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 4: they sometimes missed the mark of it. My favorite, though, 638 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 4: was when the Queen was meeting at the James Bond 639 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 4: premiere for Die Another Day. And remember Madonna had done 640 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 4: the theme song for it. So the Queen's moving, you know, 641 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 4: down the line, meeting people, and she meets Madonna and says, 642 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 4: what is it that you do? And Madonna said, oh, 643 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 4: I did the theme song for this movie. And she 644 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 4: said I really did you and shook her hands, and 645 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 4: then moved onto John Clee who was next in line, 646 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 4: and then said and what do you do? So, at 647 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 4: which point John cracked up, and then the two of 648 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 4: them obviously acknowledged that the Queen was taking the PI 649 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 4: double as and a massive fan of both of the right. 650 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 2: The Beatles talk about the first time they met the Queen, 651 00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 2: and I think it was possibly even when they were knighted, 652 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 2: but there was a moment where the longlane up to 653 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 2: meet the Queen was so long that they a bucketam 654 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 2: palace was so long that it was taking forever.

I mean the world does 717 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 2: stop and now we prepare for ten to twelve days 718 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 2: of mourning. 719 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 14: Yeah, this isn't this is a big moment. This is 720 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 14: a big day. You'll remember when you heard this news. 721 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 14: The most remarkable reign of the world has ever seen, 722 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 14: seventy years by Queen Elizabeth and the beginning of a 723 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 14: new raide, King Charles the Third. He is king immediately. 724 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,759 Speaker 14: He'll be proclaimed in London in the next forty eight hours, 725 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 14: with Camilla, the Queen Consort by his side. This is 726 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:35,319 Speaker 14: a moment in history that you'll remember that people want 727 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 14: to be a part of. That's why they go to 728 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 14: places like bunking in Palace to be a part of 729 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,399 Speaker 14: this moment and to mourn the loss of the Queen 730 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:46,240 Speaker 14: and for the family year. This is an intensely private moment. 731 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 14: They've lost a mother, a grandmother, a great grandmother. Prince 732 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 14: George started and Charlotte and Lewis started at school at 733 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,839 Speaker 14: a new school today down in Barkshire, near Windsor. They 734 00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 14: got home to learn that their great grandmother had passed away. 735 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,439 Speaker 14: And we know that Charles and Anne and Camilla made 736 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:06,239 Speaker 14: it here too Bellmorral Castle before her Majesty did die. 737 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,279 Speaker 14: Other members of the royal family scrambled up here. I 738 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 14: don't think they got here in time. Edward Andrew William 739 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 14: and Sophie and Prince Harry definitely didn't make it up. 740 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 14: He was the last to arrive here after the announcement 741 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:19,800 Speaker 14: was made public. 742 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 3: Is seventy three years she reigned as queen in our 743 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,959 Speaker 3: lifetime here in Australia, we haven't seen anyone else. 744 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 1: Can you tell us what the tradition is with mourning? 745 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 3: I mean we will reflect on it today here in Australia, 746 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 3: but over there it is a long process. 747 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 1: I mean, does everything shut down? 748 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 14: Yeah, seventy years on the throne, the plant in ju 749 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 14: believe she celebrated in June. There'll be at least eleven 750 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,279 Speaker 14: days I think before the funeral is held. There'll be 751 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:53,319 Speaker 14: during that eleven days all sorts of commemorative events. The 752 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 14: Queen's body will remain here at Balmoral before being moved 753 00:35:56,040 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 14: to Edinburgh and then London for day the procession through 754 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 14: the streets and then the funeral and I think probably 755 00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 14: ten or eleven days from now. Royal Morning usually lasts 756 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 14: for thirty days. But between now and the funeral, you know, 757 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 14: sporting events will be suspended. Play in the cricket England 758 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 14: is playing a test I think in London at the 759 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:24,280 Speaker 14: moment that will be suspended. Football will go on hold. 760 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 14: Even things like comedy shows in the BBC will go 761 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 14: off until the funeral. So these there are ancient traditions 762 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 14: but also kind of modern versions of it, like with 763 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 14: the football and the TV. So it's not something that 764 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 14: we have ever seen in the modern era. Likesis Kingbolgs 765 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 14: the six passed away in nineteen fifty two. There was 766 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:50,279 Speaker 14: a very different world back then, and it goes to 767 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 14: show how much the world has changed while the Queen's 768 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 14: been on the throne. 769 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:56,920 Speaker 2: We were talking earlier, and as you talk about there's 770 00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,279 Speaker 2: the tradition and then there's a more more modern day 771 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 2: version of how play out with the passing of someone 772 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 2: of such note. But we were discussing the idea that 773 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 2: there would be a chance for the general public to 774 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 2: view the queen as she lies in state. Is that correct? 775 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 14: Yes, So at some point in the next five or 776 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 14: six days, when the Queen's body makes its way the 777 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 14: coffin makes its way down to London, it will be 778 00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 14: carried through the streets of London to Westminster Hall, which 779 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:27,880 Speaker 14: is the oldest part of the Palace of Westminster, where 780 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,800 Speaker 14: the British Parliament sits. The Queen's body will lie in 781 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 14: state there for I think four days at least before 782 00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 14: the funeral at Westminster Abbey just over the road. But 783 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,879 Speaker 14: during that four or five days there'll be an opportunity 784 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 14: for hundreds of thousands of people to wind up outside 785 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 14: and then walk past the coffin. As they do, there'll 786 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:50,800 Speaker 14: be four members of the Armed Services posted at each corner, 787 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 14: and then at one point on one of those evenings, 788 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,440 Speaker 14: the foremost senior men of the royal family, including Prince 789 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 14: William and the new King, will also stand there as 790 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,920 Speaker 14: a guard of honor for the late Queen. For the 791 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 14: Queen Mother, there was a similar sort of thing. The 792 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 14: line stretched all the way down to the next bridge 793 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 14: at Lambeth, over the bridge, back down the back extrouded 794 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:19,560 Speaker 14: rather towards London. I expect to see those sorts of scenes. 795 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 14: The Queen's body remains here a bell moral. It will 796 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 14: be in the ballroom at bob Moral Castle in the 797 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 14: morning if it's not already, and that will give members 798 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 14: of the royal family and the household staff hear their 799 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 14: own private time to reflect and to pay their respects 800 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,799 Speaker 14: to the Queen. But make no doubt about it, there's 801 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 14: no take about it. This is a monumental week that 802 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 14: Britain is about to experience. It will be extraordinary. 803 00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 3: And you how far off are you securing the first 804 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,720 Speaker 3: chat with King Charles the thirty you close? 805 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 14: You well, I was trying to get a chat with 806 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:57,799 Speaker 14: him for a long time.

That's going to have to change for 813 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 14: childs now because he's now the King of UK and 814 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:20,839 Speaker 14: Australia and he's got to keep some of those news 815 00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 14: to himself. But he comes into that role in a 816 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 14: very different set of circumstances compared to his mother.
