    The lessoned from this is to tell people that they are "loved, admired & respected" WHILE THEY ARE STILL HERE!!! Don't wait until AFTER they are gone to tell them... Tell them to their FACE, not while they're in their coffin!

    Felt good that the queen bowed when her coffin passed. The Queen bowes to no one. But she had to do it during this occasion. The Queen is not a dumb woman. She knew that when she wouldn't do it, the consequences would have been immense.Would have been geat if Princess Margaret would have bowed as well.....

    O, i remember this! It was on a saturday and I had to work. There were about 3 people in the shop we worked and we got hold of an old television set to watch the funeral for the entire afternoon. And I was so angry at this family at that time. And at the moment the Queen bowed when the coffin came by I thought: Well, good for you, Diana! She has to bow for you!. The Queen is bowing for you. i shall never forget that moment.

    I often had the feeling the queen liked diana more then charles ever did . She never bowed for anyone & I bet she wouldn‘t if she doesn’t like her
    Thats why I love the queen a lot shes not aloud to show emotions but she does it in her way if she really cared for someone like diana or her sister 🙏🏻

    I think the royal family were happy to have her gone... Just proves how much the people love diana though, no one can forget how much she was loved and how much she loved the everyday person.

    I agree. The simple sound of the Abbey Bell once every minute freezes my blood.

    The Royal Family underestimated her "power" as a loving person. It took the British people's insistence and support of Diana to wake them up. I really don't think the Queen and Royal Family realized how close they came to losing the manarchy during those weeks. The people were no longer going to tolerate their stuffiness and ignorance of Diana's importance to them.

    My Lord, The Queen was glad not have to compete with Lady Di and her enormous understanding of the average human being. Queen doesn't know how much the average person suffers.

    I think they respected her as a person and as the mother of William and Harry. As a daughter in law, I don't know, but I don't think they were overjoyed.

    Fergie is the mother of two of the Queen's grand-children. Fergie and Diana were estranged at the time of Diana's death. Fergie tried to make up with her, but Diana didn't want it. Fergie has a role to play because she is mother to Beatrice and Eugenie, and had an amicable divorce from Andrew. Diana and Charles did not have an amicable divorce. The Queen is acting on the orders of the Prime Minister, Tony Blair. It is well-known what she really thought of Diana, and vice versa.

    Only 10 years...
    Since then, many who were seen and spoken of have long since gone. Pavarotti, Robin Cook, Princess Margaret, The Queen Mother..

    That's sweet. Thanks for commenting on a neglected segment of the footage!

    NOTE:3:32 mark -The crowdedness (not the crowd) around E has substantially thinned out giving her more space that she is most comfortable with and most importantly allowing her to interact with Margaret in "here she comes on caisson" moment (Diana)..
    .There is larger range of recusing expressions and body language/ Margaret backs it up,too , coming from E and it seems that every time she takes a breath she bends her head as to her own acknowledgement and acceptance of the order she gave months prior to this date.

  • @PrincessDi1997
    @PrincessDi1997  Před 15 lety +10

    Correct again. A statement from Sarah Ferguson was read to the inquest in which she confirmed that she had not spoken to Diana since 1995. She also confirmed she had received no nasty letters from Prince Philip, again delivering a devasting blow to the conspiracy theorists' idiotic and baseless claims.

    You'll see them in Part 10, coming out from the side road to march behind their mother's coffin.

    And they cropped it just before the queen bowed to Diana.

  • @abcd21690

    @leesetters Yes. Somehow, I could even see Sarah remarrying Prince Andrew in the near future. I think only the prospect of having to deal with the flunkies in the royal household that seems to be a problem for Sarah.

    PeggyCHEWtube,
    You're entitled to your opinion, but consider this: would you say the same if there was a King of England who stood there, solemn? I don't think so, and so must be the Queen.
    Our only knowledge of the behind- scenes thoughts and actions of the Royal family were the speculations of the media and a major Hollywood film. This doesn't mean there isn't dysfunction in the Royal family, but none of us has walked in their shoes. It must be so very difficult.

    @6:22 who is standing between Andrew and Sarah ?

  • @abcd21690
    @abcd21690 Před 15 lety +19

    Charles may have treated her bad but the queen was the one whom Diana has wronged. No offense or anything but I definitely feel for the queen. She was nothing but nice to Diana. Even Sarah Ferguson said that she still loves and admires the queen after everything that had happened. It was unfair for the queen who was deeply embarassed by Diana's exploits to be the one to bow down to her. Knowing how my grandmother feels about her disrespectful in-laws, my heart definitely goes out to the queen.
