To Play the King (TV Mini Series)

Chapter Five (1993)

Bernice Stegers: Princess Charlotte

Quotes 

• Tim Stamper : After your divorce the family made a financial settlement.

  Princess Charlotte : Yes they did, jolly mingy one too.

  Tim Stamper : Ah, quite. Wasn't done from affection or compassion, was it? They were purchasing your silence. Your good behaviour. There's a story you could tell, not only the intimate details of your own life but also the lives of others. It would be such a sensational story that you could ask any price for it you care to name. And it would almost certainly bring down the monarchy, yes?

  Princess Charlotte : Right, I suppose.

  Tim Stamper : Why didn't you go ahead and do it?

  Princess Charlotte : Well I couldn't do that to her.

  Tim Stamper : The Queen.

  Princess Charlotte : And they said that if I did... I'd have a very bad accident.
