• Prom At The Palace | DVD | (01/07/2002) from £9.59   |  Saving you £10.40 (108.45%)   |  RRP £19.99

  One of the most remarkable things about this recording of the Queen's Golden Jubilee Prom at the Palace--quite apart from the musical goodies on offer--is the opportunity to glimpse inside the royal garden, and see what Her Majesty's principal home looks like from the back. Who would have guessed she had her own lake? Voyeurism aside, director Bob Coles also catches the palpable sense of occasion and excitement that surrounds the concert, with some swooping camera angles and shots of a very chuffed-looking crowd. The music, introduced by Michael Parkinson, is a mix of popular favourites (Zadok the Priest, "Jupiter" from The Planets, Handel's Music for the Royal Fireworks) and a few lesser-known items such as Malcolm Arnold's The Nation's Dances. The outdoor acoustic is generally handled pretty well with some sensitive microphone placement, and the soloists all sound wonderful; Angela Gheorghiu stops the show with a passionate account of "Vissi d'Arte" (from Tosca) and 13-year-old clarinettist Julian Bliss gives a remarkably assured performance of Messager's fluffy salon-piece Solo de Concours. Occasionally the BBC Symphony Orchestra loses concentration and plays somewhat scrappily--the accompaniment to Figaro's aria "Largo al Factotum" is not all it should be--but overall this is a fine souvenir of a historic concert. On the DVD: Prom at the Palace has no special features on DVD. The arias in French and Italian are all subtitled in English. All profit from the sale of the DVD will be donated to the Queen Elizabeth II Golden Jubilee Trust. --Warwick Thomson

  Princess Margaret is dismissed as a party-going rebel who embarrassed the Queen with her scandalous life. But we reveal the real relationship between Elizabeth and Margaret and how Margaret sacrificed her own happiness for her big sister and the crown. In their intensely close childhood, it was Margaret who dazzled, outshining her strait-laced sister; but when Elizabeth became the most famous woman in the world the pressure threatened to destroy their relationship. We go behind Margaret's headline-grabbing reputation to reveal how scandal shook the sisters' relationship but how, in the end, their loyalty to each other proved the strongest bond.

  Directed by acclaimed, multi-award-winning filmmaker Peter Morley, 25 Years is an impressionistic survey of the years from the Queen's accession to the throne in 1952 through to her Silver Jubilee in 1977, featured here as a brand-new High Definition remaster from original film elements in both its original widescreen theatrical and fullscreen as-filmed aspect ratios. Combining archive and contemporary footage - including that of the royal visit to Canada and the US in 1976, the bicentenary year of American independence - the film explores the monarchy through a quarter-century that saw the conquest of Everest, the development of television as a mass medium, the first supersonic flight and mankind's first steps on another world. Through good times and bad, and tumultuous changes for better or for worse, one factor remained constant: the monarchy, in the person of Queen Elizabeth II, provided a continuity and stability which this film celebrates in her Silver Jubilee year.

  For the best part of a millennium Windsor Castle has been at the heart of the national story; the awesome fortress; family home; treasure chest; and burial ground for the Royal dynasty who went on to take its name. But there is another unseen side to the Castle which the tourists never see... It is the real Windsor - home workplace playground and paradise. The Queen's Castle explores this hidden world in all its glory. Last year for the first time ever Windsor opened its doors to an observational documentary team with the full approval of the Queen. The cameras chronicled a year in the life of the world's largest inhabited castle to produce a spectacular landmark documentary for BBC1. Delving behind-the-scenes the team meet not only the Royal family but also some of their four hundred staff at work; from the Queen's housekeeper to her grooms; fender smiths and flag men; picture restorers; military knights and priests - all of whom live and work within the Castle's nine hundred rooms... Windsor Castle's 'back garden' is the 15 000 acre Great Park; together they play host to a unique collection of events - the pageantry of Garter Day the glamour of Cartier Polo and the tradition of Royal Ascot. November sees the Castle thrown into the international spotlight when President and Madame Chirac spent two days at the Castle attending an official State Dinner and even an abridged version of Les Miserables organised by the Queen in the Waterloo Room (renamed the Music Room for that one night!). For all these events and activities both big and small the cameras were there with unique access following the people who made them happen. The Queen and Prince Philip spend most weekends of the year at Windsor. Throughout the series the rpogramme tries to explain why the Queen loves Windsor so much using exclusive interviews with Prince Philip to explain how a young Royal couple made Windsor a family home for their four children; even installing a solar powered swimming pool in the Georgian Orangery. Watch as the young Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie support Prince Harry playing polo. Throughout the series the Ranger of Windsor Great Park guides viewers through the vast expanse of Windsor Castle; whether on the polo field in the private Windsor Chapel or through the vast Crown Estate. Since the Ranger happens to be the Duke of Edinburgh - the longest serving Ranger in history you'll be in good company! This is a sight-seeing journey that no tourist has ever been on!
