I love it. "David, get out of the way!" What a hoot.

That whole program was absolutely wonderful. Anne's dry wit when she was watching home movies of herself and Charles at the beach, the Duke of Kent reminiscing while watching the "behind the scenes" movies on Coronation Day and later when HM was shot at during the Trooping, Lady Sarah Chatto watching her mother and aunt together as children...it was just wonderful.

One of my memories of programme was Willian and Harry watching their father as a toddler and William exclaims "He's walking like George!" I agree the whole programme was wonderful.

I loved the bit when William and his brother watched toddler Anne ride her tricycle perilously close to a grassy hill and both brothers wanted her to ride the trike down the slope!

Another clip

Elizabeth and Margaret trade off being a pony and cart driver. You can hear the love and affection in Lady Sarah Chatto's voice, and the Queen and Charles watching the same clip are just lovely.
