She is certainly her father’s daughter. Similar senses of humour and a simple “just get on with it” approach. She’s also very intelligent and charming.
She’s a treasure. I wishe the quality of TV programs reflected that of this old interview today so we had more opportunities to see the Royals like this.
i loved it when trump was over and the queen gave anne a head nudge as to say "come over here to talk to him" but anne just stood there and heald out her hands and im sure she said witb her lips "bothered?" she wasnt going over there 😂
The queen didn’t receive the education she’d have liked, so she made sure that her daughter would have the best. And the result is this amazing person.
At the middle of my life, and discovering Princess Anne for the first time. You can instantly sense the brilliance and charm of this royal. She was truly ahead of her time, a gifted communicator with an enormous heart, sense of duty and love of country. The younger royals should take a page from her successful management of public and private life.
Never been a "royal kinda bloke" but I've always liked Anne you just know she'd be a good laugh with a gin n tonic in hand 🤣 Condolences to her on the loss of the Queen. Long live the king 🤴🏻 🇬🇧
When I met with her in 1988/89, the immediate thing, that struck me, was that he’s so much more attractive in person, than photos or film, photographs never flattered Princess Anne
Her face has the same mix of features as her mother and father and very much the same mix of personality and qualities. It all makes a very great lovely lady inside and out.
I don't think so. The actress who plays her sounds too clipped. Anne here sounds much more rough and ready. She sounds like a very Lancastrian Victoria Wood playing one of her over-achieving Head Girl characters.
@@lisalovemc717 she really doesn't. Listen again. The lady playing Anne, whilst a charismatic actress given the role, is playing a very stilted version of Anne - a caricature, who speaks through the tiniest of openings in her mouth, like it is imagined someone of her breeding does. Anne is much, much, much less careful in her way of speaking. Also, you can unfortunately hear the actresses cockney roots coming through when she formulates certain words, and it is obviously a constant effort for her to maintain this form of RP. This is not how Anne speaks at all, and although reserved by modern standards, she is not a glum and emotionless drone, as portrayed, but simply a no nonsense, get on with it sort.
Wogan is something else. A brilliant interviewer. Charming, humerous, respectful, intelligent but able to ask very pointed questions e.g. Chancellor of Universities when she hadn't attended university herself lol, in a very unassuming and polite but humerous manner. With someone less skilled it could come across as a common dig, but not so he. She's hilarious. No nonsense and down to earth. Really funny.
I have been an admirer of the Princess Royal for decades. She carries out her many duties with no fuss and doesn't expect thanks or praise. She is a mixture of her late Mother and her beloved Father. I think her brother the King has a great supporter.
I love the Princess Royal so much! I often wonder if she knows just how loved she actually is? How many of us look up to her immensely? She really got the best from both her parents!
What a wonderful persona she puts across! Not the least bit stuck-up. Polite, well-mannered, respectful, and amusing. Everything a well-rounded individual should be. Respect to Princess Anne!
Princess Ann is naturally likeable, witty and very down to earth. She is the hardest working member of the Royal Family and represents many charities. She has her fathers no nonsense approach and seems to have the sort of 'no complaining, just get on with the job' character. Ann stays quietly in wings and has never caused a fuss or embarrassed the family in any way. There was no rift between her and Princess Diana which she discusses in the interview. Diana never disliked her but they were two different personalities and so weren't close.
Yes, this interview during the early Diana years and the focus was ultimately on Diana by the media. The Princess Royal seemingly in the background. Here is a glimpse of an utterly charming woman who never got the plaudits and as the years role by clips such as this present her to a generation who are discovering her. Like her dear Mother she is quick witted.
This is our most working Royal ever, l admire her soo much and the way that she brought up her children not to be dependent on her royal connections. She was much as a star then as she now. Job well done to the Princess Royal, you are an absolute delight. No none sees like her like her father does, she is more like him than our beautiful and Queen Elisabeth and not forgetting our wonderful person
Princess Anne, and her wonderful nature, gives us possibly a glimpse of what her mother may have been like behind her sense of Royal duty and public filter so scrupulously adhered to for so many years. This interview with Princess Anne also reminds us of how lovely she was, much like her mother, before today's audience has cast her as a "senior" figure.
Lot of comments about how much she is like her mum or dad. WRONG! She has the best of both of them and what a combination. Absolutely charming, humble and witty. Pleasure to listen to her interview. Credit to her family and Country. Frank, Ireland.
Brilliant interview between the Princess and Wogan, funny, interesting and warm. The interview was natural and none of this pulling the interview to bits with critical views and discussing it from morning to night . Just so lovely with the lovely Wogan.
I don’t laugh easily anymore. This interview had me beaming and practically in stitches. I think when I’m feeling down I will just watch princess Anne interviews.
One of the most charming interviews I have seen of Princess Anne. TW showing how to make it look easy when it isn't. He took the lead and HRH Princess Anne willingly followed and showed great charm and a fun side we rarely see these days. Can't think of any presenter these days who could pull this off.
Ive lately seen Annes young photos and Im astounded at how beautiful she is … yet, she doesn’t let on that way. Shes very pretty and has a sweet glow. Theres no indication she reflects herself as vain. Shes truly dignified. Her daughter is very beautiful also.
There is a poignant scene in "The Crown" where Elizabeth II and Porchy are having lunch in Kentucky at the end of their horse breeding fact finding tour and she reveals her true feelings about the life she would have preferred. Fact or fiction... who knows? I wonder what life Anne would have preferred. She was still married to Mark Phillips as of this interview, a man whom her elder brother, now King of England, nicknamed, "The Fog" because he was "dense and wet". Anne knew she would never accede to the throne and so she has lived her life as genuinely as possible under the circumstances of her birth. She refused the Queen's offer of titles for her children saying, "I think it was probably easier for them, and I think most people would argue that there are downsides to having titles. So I think that was probably the right thing to do." Smart lady, and the hardest working royal in the bunch.
That was a tremendous interview , the princess came across very well, remember it all those years ago, Wogan was a genius at interviewing and he got the princess to relax and laugh which helps in these situations. The public saw a nice nice, powerful , intelligent but vulnerable side to the princess here which the papers has tried to tarnish and it endeared her to the British public from that day onwards as a good person who stands up for herself. She had great personality, beauty and wit, a model Queen in the making.
I wouldn't call her beautiful, whatever that means. I'm not beautiful either, but she is a handsome woman with dignity. Those are the traits that count. Not cheap Hollywood looks.
She’s such a delight! And I just noticed how much William looks like her. Princess Anne has always been lovely. She would have been a much better successor to the throne, in my opinion, but of course my opinion doesn’t count.
Yes, for all that William was said to have got his looks from his mother (which he did, to an extent), I've always clearly seen something of Anne in him, also Anne's son Peter Philips and William look very alike.
Princess Anne is my favorite royal. She’s down to earth, hardworking, naturally witty, intelligent and you know where you stand with her. She also understood the importance of her role and took it very seriously by doing her duty.
She has a unique look that she is prettier than close up. She has beautiful eyes and smile. It’s so uncommon to be able to look even more lovely upon closer scrutiny.
I agree, they're both beautiful on the inside as well as the outside. William & Anne (especially Anne) don't necessarily realize that they're beautiful on the outside. That's "true beauty." Once again, especially Anne😏 Most importantly, Prince William probably respected and listened to his Aunt Anne's advice on life in regards to how to act professionally and just all around how to treat others with respect. Just a thought I came across🤔 Love from 🇺🇸
@@GadsdenHomie1776 I don't think being beautiful on the outside is a priority for Anne or William, they realize there are many things more important. Many better ways to use ones resources than primping and posing.
What a lovely smile, wit and humour !! ❣️. She’s a force to be reckoned with..... very quick off the mark with her answers. SHE should be the next Monarch once her mum has passed on.
Princessa Anna, to bardzo odważna kobieta. Nie tylko w życiu, ale też w jej wypowiedziach. To wysoka klasa, inteligentnej Pani. Podoba mi się zachowanie i wypowiedzi, takiej odważnej i wysoko urodzonej Pani.
She would’ve made an excellent queen
Her voice is also like her mom
Yes I've always been of that opinion too!❤
HRH The Princess Royal would have made a SUPERB Queen...❤
I doubt she would have liked to be a queen
not sure if her brother steps down she can take the throne
It's a pity we don't see more of Anne; quick, witty, charming. What a queen she would make!
She is absolutely Beautiful.

She's not seen because she's busy working.

Now that's what you call class.
She is certainly her father’s daughter. Similar senses of humour and a simple “just get on with it” approach. She’s also very intelligent and charming.
So true and Zara appears to be the same
I love Princess Anne. I hope Princess Charlotte gets a lot of valuable time with her Great Aunt. She can teach her so much.
Her beauty is as prevalent today as it was back then. She is probably one of the most underrated and hardworking royal we have.
Never in my life before have I come across anyone with the ability to stay as calm as the Princess Anne, in spite of the spotlight.
You are right, and should say it
She’s a treasure. I wishe the quality of TV programs reflected that of this old interview today so we had more opportunities to see the Royals like this.

@Wid Eye absolutely!
I think so too
"Lost all your pocket money?" "Yes. To my Nanny." LOLOL 🤣
I’ve only started watching Princess Anne in more detail recently. She’s a witty 35 year old here, and in my opinion a very beautiful woman.
She is over 70 and has never been a beauty.
I wouldn't call myself a royalist, but I did enjoy watching this. She came across as humourous, charming and intelligent.
The queen didn’t receive the education she’d have liked, so she made sure that her daughter would have the best. And the result is this amazing person.

She was always the most likeable royal but very private.
She takes after her mum. And her aunt. and her grandmother. It's the women in the family ❤
Where have you been?
The truly gifted always hide
I am the same, only recently "noticed" her, obviously knew of her but never took any notice. She is funny and brilliant, also pretty!... i am wrong 🤔😄

Condolences to her on the loss of the Queen.
Long live the king 🤴🏻 🇬🇧
Not only is she absolutely hilarious, but she’s naturally beautiful.
How old was she there
@tecdessus she was 35. She was beautiful and had that aristocratic air about her
Its not the meat suit, its the genuine personality.
@@TerryStewart32 About 35, in 1985

She’s such a likable character. Charming. Witty. Graceful. Real royal.
She is stunning in every way. What a beautiful woman and Princess. God bless Princess Anne.
Princess Anne has both her Mother’s and her Father’s quick wit, and sense of humour.
She has a really rare sense of class that's for sure. And a kind heart. Stunning woman, she is 35 there.
That was a great interview.
This princess has my respect, she’s charming, intelligent & pretty.
Princess Ann is awesome. I didn't know how witty she is.. love her.
She is like her mother; sharp, witty and subtly hilarious. lol
… I agree but I think she’s a mixture of both of her parents. Loved both of them ❤
Her face has the same mix of features as her mother and father and very much the same mix of personality and qualities. It all makes a very great lovely lady inside and out.
She also favors her Aunt Margaret
The Crown has made me love the princess royal
A beautkiful Person
Erin is brilliant! Can’t wait to see Anne’s scenes in season 4
Me too
...and even MORE, the Princess Royal has made me love the Princess Royal!
As she is played on “The Crown” as well as interviews makes her seem the “most normal” of the whole bunch. Definitely the most relatable
She is fantastic. Has her father’s sense of humor
And her Mothers charm.
She's such a sassy woman 😂 I just love her sense of humor and how easily she turns the tables on him 😂
Just like her father.
The actor is The Crown does a great job talking like her
I don't think so. The actress who plays her sounds too clipped. Anne here sounds much more rough and ready. She sounds like a very Lancastrian Victoria Wood playing one of her over-achieving Head Girl characters.
And the writers nailed down the character ... so witty and sarcastic.

She really knows how to phrase and answer. Concise, entertaining and frank. Poise.
She would have made herself a brilliant queen . Her personality speaks that loud and clear !
the best queen that never was!
You can see some embarrassment and shyness in the very few seconds. I have met her in real life, absolutely marvellous and humble and modest.
Never knew the Princess Royal was so quick witted. What an interesting and hugely entertaining interview. Simply marvellous.

Omg she is amazing
A role model, the whole time I grew up, she is 10 years older. What courage she has!
I love the Princess Royal so much! I often wonder if she knows just how loved she actually is? How many of us look up to her immensely? She really got the best from both her parents!

What a wonderful persona she puts across! Not the least bit stuck-up. Polite, well-mannered, respectful, and amusing. Everything a well-rounded individual should be. Respect to Princess Anne!
Love Princess Anne, funny, humble, hard working, no nonsense and no seeking the limelight. Just wonderful.
She’s a hoot, more royals should do this kind of interview, I’d love to hear a long form from William or Catherine
At such a young age, she acts like she’s much older, full of wisdom, patience, wit and humor. I’m thinking... so, that’s what it’s like to be a Royal!
This is the first time i’ve ever heard Princess Anne speak in an interview...I really like her. As odd as it sounds she seems grounded and easy going.
She was on a 🇬🇧 UK Childrens tv program Blue Peter when she was younger and I think I have loved her since then.
Ahhh, she's the best of the bunch
