This was a lovely interview. Really enjoyed it! The Markles truly broke the Queen and Prince Philip’s hearts in the end. But this author, I believe, has portrayed an accurate and admirable portrait of the late Queen.
He was giving not a bad interview but he is not telling the truth about calling their daughterl ilbet they asked if they could call their daughter after her she said yes thinking they meant E.isebeth he defends mm and Harry he does it on ITV show Good Morning l don't believe a lot what he has to say.
I am American my mother loved her I loved her too. She was beautiful and so strong. I love seeing her in uniform during the war. I am a retired brick mason when someone says something about it I would think of her in uniform. I hold her in the greatest of respect and honor. I wish Prince William and Princess Kate was our president and Vice President. Run harry and Meghan out of our country but I would hate them in Royal Family. RIP Queen Elisabeth you are missed by a lot of Americans.
Every time I see that last photograph of our beloved , loyal and dedicated Queen when she smilingly greeted the new Prime Minister it opens the floodgates and I just feel heartbroken . A couple of days later she died knowing that she had done her duty to God ,Country and Commonwealth . Giles Brandreth was a fountain of knowledge and it was expertly done by miss Aussie .
@@ralphl7643 True - but that doesn't seem likely in the foreseeable future. I doubt King Charles or the Prince of Wales will emulate either of those two.
I find it ridiculous. It imprisons an entire family and forces a person to put aside their own dreams and ambition. I also object to their stolen and inherited wealth and exemption from paying inheritance taxes.
I'm am American who's always been fascinated by the royal family and always respected The Queen's life of service. The story shared here by your guest today and in part I are some of the most amazing intimate details I've ever heard about her majesty and Prince Phillip. Thank you so much for sharing these details. Really really wonderful stories.
Jo, I love the way you interview your guests. You don't interrupt them; you listen. You never make the interview about yourself and are fully engaged with what they are saying. I loved your vest and blouse and am wondering if the feathers on the cuffs were attached or separate from the blouse.👍🙂
Thank you for the simplicity and dignity of this interview. It has been a pleasure to look at you both and listen to your mutually respectful conversation, full of love to Her Majesty the Queen. A breath of clean air in this rather stuffy atmosphere of current events. I feel grateful for your choice of subject and the perfect timing of airing both parts of the Interview. Looking forward to reading the book. Many Advent greetings from this Polish person, currently in Germany, who had been in love with Britain since her childhood (I am 58 ;) ). Long live the King and the Kingdom.
@David Hocde’ I was in Nantes in 2002/3 building the Queen Mary 2. I loved it and found the people very friendly. It was absolutely freezing in the winter though, more so than England
Delightful interview...both parts. Thank you so much! Regarding these accusations of racism: It doesn't matter what the truth is to those who are intent on pushing that particular narrative. It becomes impossible to refute. As an American, I'm watching our society become more & more divided & it's truly dismaying...for most of us. It's like watching an accident about to happen & not being able to do anything to stop it.
Thoroughly enjoyed this 2-part interview. Respectful, real and most intriguing. Thank you Giles for your insights. As dignified as our Royals are. Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, would be proud and reveling in your shares/stories. God save the King. The Royal family continue to be an example to us all - in testing times, what to ignore, take the high road, no matter what seems personal cost. Love and patience, kindness and compassion is the only way. Thank you. 🙏🏻❤️
Ah what a wonderful episode, brought me to tears a few times as it made me realise how I miss the Queen. Thank you, it's really lovely to hear these memories and stories, it's how we honour those who have passed.
The Queen and Prince Philip had the very best of all marriages. They loved and were totally devoted to each other and Prince Philip would never have cheated. They had their separate interests and lives and when they needed to do things together they did them together and he protected her and would have, to the death. When they first got married they lived as a normal loving family and it was only after the Queen’s coronation, and they had to do her first royal tour, that the children were left at home and were supposedly neglected. But this was the thing to do at the time. The Queen was travelling to many different countries and was meeting many different people and would not have had any time to spend with the children so they were left at home in the safety of home and the Nannie’s. The Queen and Prince Philip missed the children every single day and were so happy to see them when they got home. How can MM say the RF is racist when her favourite person is Nelson Mandela and she is giving Medals of Honour to women of colour? Racism? lies all lies. Lady S incident was a set-up and should be investigated and she should be reinstated and publicly apologised to by this fake African pretender abused woman.
And we all know who was behind the racist attack on the late Queens lady in waiting, don't we. It's as obvious as the nose on your face. Harry's first wife, I am sure of it. She's the slyist, nastiest, evil bitch the world has ever encountered. And there is only one person to blame. Horrid brain dead Harry. He couldn't resist bringing home a filthy yacht woman, To humiliate the Royal family , and he did successfully do the job, he set out to do.. The dirty traitor that he is.. I for one, am sick to death of him and that disgusting thing he married . The dirty Trollop, Rachel Raglan, mm. Why has she got away with so much ? How can one piece of filth cause so much hurt and agony ?. And get away with it ? And people are still interested in her. A nothing ,who comes from nothing.
I have really enjoyed both of these interviews with Gyles Brandreth. He is a wonderful storyteller, and many of the things he's sharing are fresh insights to me, even though I've read a fair bit about the Queen.
Really terrific interview - everyone else has used up all the superlatives - he made the Queen come back to us for just a little while, and told us some new stories we hadn't heard. Thank you so much for doing this interview. One further comment about Gyles Brandreth, he's very entertaining, he has such an engaging, delightful manner.
I will be getting his book as I loved listening to him. It's always life's little lessons, stories, 'incidents', etc. that make for such rich and entertaining re-telling. The essence of Prince Phillip and Queen Elizabeth is just that they were a couple who enjoyed the richest of life's experiences, i.e. meeting so many ordinary and extraordinary people.
I said the same thing about Prince William and Princess Catherine that they embody the same spirit as the Queen and Prince Philip. They will be a wonderful king and Queen in the fullness of time
Oh my goodness..I want to get and read this book so badly ..I really love the Queen..because she defended what was given her..especially her faith...Rest in heavenly Peace, Dear Queen Elizabeth.
After enjoying Part One of Gyles' interview, watching Part Two was a priority for me. I thoroughly enjoyed it as well. He is a delightful man and I hope he writes his autobiography. Should be easy for him since he keeps a diary.
The more I hear about the late Queen, the more she seems a no drama woman to me. Could it be that the media is keeping all the drama surrounding the 'California Royals' alive for their own purpose? Would a bit less whipped up media drama perhaps be more suitable to the heirs of a stoic nation? Great interview Jo!
Yes agree, she and Philip were very much no nonsense, get on with it. Very much of that special generation that gave up so much. I don't think you can blame too much on the media as they mostly run what's being fed to them, and H&M haven't really stopped with side comments since they left. What the media needs to do a better job of is thoughtful, responsible reporting that doesn't just react it digs into the subject a little more.
I agree with you. The Collective Media should give them no air time and focus on more important things like how is Charles going to craft the near future and what roles will William, Catherine, Camilla, Edward and Sophie, Princess Anne, Not Harry, Not Andrew play.
Of course we now know, that even if Lady Hussey didn’t handle the situation well Marlene Headley behaves in this way and dresses differently in a provocative way to get a response we know because there is a video of her explaining this.
I can see why the late Prince Philip and Her majesty, Queen Elizabeth, loved Gyles. Such an interesting, intelligent and erudite fellow. Splendid interview 🌹🇦🇺
I'm an American keenly interested in the British royal family, but I sometimes wonder why I keep watching Palace Confidential, which normally devolves into a Meghan and Harry bashing session in every episode. But it is insightful discussions like those with Gyles Brandreth that keep me coming back. More of this, Jo!
Perhaps because of the trauma Meghan Markle and Prince Harry inflicted on Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip in their dying days, and continue to do to the Royal Family now. They would be aghast.
I am so glad I listened to the whole interview. It was such a delight to hear Gyle's insights. It was so lovely to hear about our wonderful monarch the Queen. She was wonderful! And he was just a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for posting this. It was refreshing to get away from the soap opera and to remember how wonderful it is that we have the monarchy.
These two interviews are my favorite so far to watch here in DMR, Ms. Jo Elvin is really an excellent host. Very engaging host and fun. She's my number one pick for the female host and Graham Norton is the other one for the male host. The UK is lucky to have them both, we don't have that kind of caliber here in the States.
Well thats another two books to add to my reading pile. Elisabeth, an intimate portrait and Floella Benjamin's autobiography! I'm going to need more than a festive fortnight to make a dent in my reading list but thank you, Gyles
I think Gyles insight was interesting, heart warming, and respectful of the Queen. I will get his book so I can a more in depth view of Queen Elizabeth. Very good interview!
The tragic thing is how popular opinion can be so firmly set that's completely at odds with the truth. So many people have the late Prince Philip down as a racist philanderer and the late Queen as cold. Yet the people who actually knew them both say exactly the opposite.
I think that things would have changed after the Oprah Winfrey interview- they attacked so many members of the family. I can't see the late Queen being truly relaxed about anything to do with the Markles since including her pet name being used by them.
I don't know. I think the Queen was probably very pragmatic and understood there were things she couldn't change, so move on to today's agenda. Not to say that it didn't disappoint her.
I'm not sure Gyles is up to speed with the truth about the ngosi woman's motivations and who she is aligned with. Lady C is worth watching today. Gyles is very bubbly and full of interesting reminiscences but maybe rather too positive and biased.
I agree with you. You can tell he is an interesting person with a good heart. IMO, he doesn’t know what is going on in our society at present. I wish I had that kind of naivety, maybe then, I wouldn’t feel so sick and anxious.
Agree with your assessment. I think the Palace over reacted without knowing all the facts. Why was Ngosi/Marlene there posing as an African, with an African name, in African tribal costume, when in fact she's British of Caribbean descent?
Absolutely agree with you Donna. I really like Gyles Brandreth but perhaps he should not comment until further investigations are made. I would like to know if the woman in question was taping her provocative race baiting of lf Lady Susan.
The Opera interview was planned for the last days of Philips's life. He died in distress knowing the flack his 96-year-old wife would take and that he would not be around to support her. The gracious lady took this flack until the day she died, with threats lies, and demands from her own grandson and wife as she grieved for Philip, suffered her illness, and watched her 70 years of duty trashed for money. They even abused her funeral.
The Queen was hurt by Harry's rejection of her invitation and absent in her life !I think she was going to tell him she was dying and her wish was that he make peace with William !!
thanks Jo, very moving podcast with anecdotes of QE11. like you, I'm Australian. I have always been a royalist but more so now. I do not want to loose the Royal head of state, C111 is "my" King, because I am petrified of Australia becoming a Republic and turning into America! YIKES!
Greetings from Seoul! Huge fan of the channel and of Gyles Brandreth! Such an eloquent speaker. I just love to hear him talk for hours and hours.....! Great voice!
Oh,n what a treat…didn’t realise we were going to have a second part. 🤓. I had to stop listening…didn’t want to hear about the Grifters. Just too much.
@@puppy1584 I can totally relate. I switch off if it's all about them. It's getting boring. But Gyles does have some wonderful memories of the Queen. It's very touching at the end
our poor late queen in the later part of her life should have had peace after all her 70 years service What must she have gone through in her mind on these two disgracefull behaviour to our late queen god bless her soul
This was an absolute delight to listen to! Imagine that lil Queen running around “the big house” turning off the lights! Ty for another amazing interview. 💝
This is the first interview and guest that really seems like he knows what he is talking about and is not really hating Harry and Meghan. I am going to buy his book.
Was Lady Sarah "totally inappropriate"? Or misinterpreted to suit a PR agenda? The whole thing could have been peacefully resolved, really, but I'm not sure that was the point.
What is clear, is that it takes a certain type of person to hold this role, I can see it with Camilla, with Catherine and with Sophie, sadly I never saw it with Meghan, she was a disaster from word go and I think Giles is intimating this very politely. I think we are fortunate in our King and Queen and the Prince and Princess of Wales, they hold the values of the Queen.
I'm so thankful to hear a reliable source confirm that Prince Phillip was a faithful husband to the Queen unlike The Crown portrayed him. Thank you for informing us here in America.
Lucky to have heard both interviews with Mr Brandreth and Jo! Utterly fascinating chats. Very personal: the stories, insights, humor and in many cases setting the record straight about HMTQ. Just a joy to listen to. I wish you well sir and will be looking forward to the release of your book here in 🇺🇲! Happy Christmas 💫
What did you think of Gyles's insights?
I LOVED this epsode!
One of the few people I have heard in British media who has a reasonable perspective.
I love his reference to 'mythical' and 'fairy tale' because I do believe it's what makes the monarchy so captivating.
I do not believe he knew the Queen as much as he lets on. He seems full of himself. He also doesn’t seem to want to fault the Harkles at all for their per terrible behavior.
Wonderful insights & I do believe IF the QUEEN had lived long enough to watch this mockumentary like hawwy wanted her to IT would have seen her OFF! ...'.so much for having the right people around her '

The beauty of having the Monarchy is that we have a head of state who is not there because of personal ambition. Somehow I find that comforting.

Well thats another two books to add to my reading pile. Elisabeth, an intimate portrait and Floella Benjamin's autobiography! I'm going to need more than a festive fortnight to make a dent in my reading list but thank you, Gyles
I Iove hearing stories of the queen. She reminded me of my grandmothers. I miss seeing her in engagements.
Such a fabulous interview
Isn't he great!
Such an outstanding interview. Thank you.
I think Gyles insight was interesting, heart warming, and respectful of the Queen. I will get his book so I can a more in depth view of Queen Elizabeth. Very good interview!
Wonderful interview. He is so delightfully animated and insightful.
What a fascinating and wonderful interview 💖 thank you both so very much 💖
How amazing Queen Elizabeth, her RH, was to connect with everyone!
I truly enjoyed this gentleman’s point of view or realism of what he actually experienced with the Royals!
The tragic thing is how popular opinion can be so firmly set that's completely at odds with the truth. So many people have the late Prince Philip down as a racist philanderer and the late Queen as cold. Yet the people who actually knew them both say exactly the opposite.
I think that things would have changed after the Oprah Winfrey interview- they attacked so many members of the family. I can't see the late Queen being truly relaxed about anything to do with the Markles since including her pet name being used by them.
Susan C, I agree. That interview was so untrue and hurtful. Never forgave Oprah for that either. Shameful.
I don’t believe the Lilibet story nor the Queen’s nonchalance about H&R turning on the family after they left the U.K.
Agree
I don't know. I think the Queen was probably very pragmatic and understood there were things she couldn't change, so move on to today's agenda. Not to say that it didn't disappoint her.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and wisdom with us
I read his book on PP, and I wouldn’t miss this book on the late Queen. I so admired her for her faith. Excellent interviiew!
Ah, glad you mentioned the PP book ... I'll add that to my list of winter reading as well!
I'm not sure Gyles is up to speed with the truth about the ngosi woman's motivations and who she is aligned with. Lady C is worth watching today. Gyles is very bubbly and full of interesting reminiscences but maybe rather too positive and biased.
I agree with you Donna.
I agree with you. You can tell he is an interesting person with a good heart. IMO, he doesn’t know what is going on in our society at present. I wish I had that kind of naivety, maybe then, I wouldn’t feel so sick and anxious.
Agree with your assessment. I think the Palace over reacted without knowing all the facts. Why was Ngosi/Marlene there posing as an African, with an African name, in African tribal costume, when in fact she's British of Caribbean descent?
Absolutely agree with you Donna. I really like Gyles Brandreth but perhaps he should not comment until further investigations are made. I would like to know if the woman in question was taping her provocative race baiting of lf Lady Susan.
See the earlier videos by Lady C, where she points out he has to stay on the royal’s good side and therefore has to limit his replies. Lady C doesn’t.
What a delightful interview.
The Opera interview was planned for the last days of Philips's life.
He died in distress knowing the flack his 96-year-old wife would take and that he would not be around to support her.
The gracious lady took this flack until the day she died, with threats lies, and demands from her own grandson and wife as she grieved for Philip, suffered her illness, and watched her 70 years of duty trashed for money.
They even abused her funeral.
Shame On H. & M. For Doing The Queen & P P. That Way Just Makes Me Sick.
I've read often that Nelson Mandela used to call her Elizabeth, and Phillip, Phillip.
The Queen was hurt by Harry's rejection of her invitation and absent in her life !I think she was going to tell him she was dying and her wish was that he make peace with William !!
Very much enjoyed hearing the passion, and insights of the author
Jo Elvin is delightful as well as an intelligent interviewer.
Hope LSH is OK ,according to credible source's she is heartbroken and is not venturing outside of her home
So delightful! Both episodes are brilliant!
What an interesting and intelligent man. I thoroughly enjoyed this interview.
thanks Jo, very moving podcast with anecdotes of QE11. like you, I'm Australian. I have always been a royalist but more so now. I do not want to loose the Royal head of state, C111 is "my" King, because I am petrified of Australia becoming a Republic and turning into America! YIKES!
Yes! Australia has quite enough problems and not lucky enough to have potentially founding individuals of giant intellect and courage.
I love listening to Gyles
Very enjoyable and informative interview. THANK YOU BOTH.
Greetings from Seoul! Huge fan of the channel and of Gyles Brandreth! Such an eloquent speaker. I just love to hear him talk for hours and hours.....! Great voice!
excellent interview, I could listen to Gyles all day. Thank you.
Oh,n what a treat…didn’t realise we were going to have a second part. 🤓. I had to stop listening…didn’t want to hear about the Grifters. Just too much.
They didn't feature heavily. I can recommend watching the full interview
@@Welivebythesea thank you for your thoughts. Very nice not to get someone slagging you off! I will listen to it.
@@puppy1584 I can totally relate. I switch off if it's all about them. It's getting boring. But Gyles does have some wonderful memories of the Queen. It's very touching at the end
I did notice that Gyles said ‘when they got the baby’ which I found interesting. Not, when they had the baby’. Giles is in a position to know.
Slip of the tongue?
Don't be idiotic.
Thanks
our poor late queen in the later part of her life should have had peace after all her 70 years service What must she have gone through in her mind on these two disgracefull behaviour to our late queen god bless her soul
What a delightful, entertaining and interesting time I've spent with you two. I'm so sorry it's come to an end!
This was an absolute delight to listen to! Imagine that lil Queen running around “the big house” turning off the lights! Ty for another amazing interview. 💝
Really loved both episodes and learnt a lot. Thank you.
Have this gentleman on again! I could listen to him all day long.
This is the first interview and guest that really seems like he knows what he is talking about and is not really hating Harry and Meghan. I am going to buy his book.
I'm so looking forward to the book. The person I would have wanted to talk to, more than anyone else, is the late Queen.
Thank you again! LOVED this interview!!!
I remember Charles having a penchant for Shelia Ferguson from the singing group 'three degrees' he certainly was not racist 😉
I love Gyles ...more please..
Was Lady Sarah "totally inappropriate"? Or misinterpreted to suit a PR agenda? The whole thing could have been peacefully resolved, really, but I'm not sure that was the point.
What is clear, is that it takes a certain type of person to hold this role, I can see it with Camilla, with Catherine and with Sophie, sadly I never saw it with Meghan, she was a disaster from word go and I think Giles is intimating this very politely. I think we are fortunate in our King and Queen and the Prince and Princess of Wales, they hold the values of the Queen.
Jo, Absolutely brilliant interview! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'm so thankful to hear a reliable source confirm that Prince Phillip was a faithful husband to the Queen unlike The Crown portrayed him. Thank you for informing us here in America.
Great two episodes, lovely job from beginning to end, Jo.
The little class this world had left went when we lost HM Elizabeth.
love this man I could listen to him all night
Lucky to have heard both interviews with Mr Brandreth and Jo! Utterly fascinating chats. Very personal: the stories, insights, humor and in many cases setting the record straight about HMTQ. Just a joy to listen to. I wish you well sir and will be looking forward to the release of your book here in 🇺🇲!
Happy Christmas 💫
How brave of William to go after an old lady and not do anything about his own brother and sister-in-law.
Thank you.
Gyles! Brilliant jumper- I love it!❤
