英文剧本--蓝莓之夜

My Blueberry Nights script

Hello? Who!?

No. I'm sorry, I don't know anyone by that name

No, listen, I get about a hundred customers a night

I can't keep track of them all.

Do you know... well tell me what he likes to eat

Cause I remember people by what they order

Not by their names

"Meat Loaf? "

Well, I know a Meat Loaf with Mashed Potatoes.

I know Meat Loaf who likes

Well, with Cheese Fries, Pouched Egg, Onion Rings

What? He doesn't like potatoes?

Why don't you, well, yeah give me your number

And if I see him, I'll tell him to call you

Yeah, I promise. I will. Ok bye

He's 5'11 with dark brown hair

Sorry, I can't think of any Meat Loafs with Cheese Fries

or Onion Rings or Pouched Eggs

Or Fried Fillet of Fish that match that description

Last time we were here, I think he had the pork chops

Oh why didn't you say so?

That's because we supposedly have the best pork chops in the city You ever tried them?

No, I haven't

Why not? What, are you religious or something?

Listen, have you seen him or not?

5'11 ". Dark brown hair. Pork chops

I have actually. He came in here for dinner last night

He ordered two pork chops

One with mashed potatoes and one with string beans.

I guess he was hungry

No, he didn't eat both of them.

Our portions are too big for a person to eat two

No, one was for him and one was for his girlfriend

Look! Just get to the point...

Don't... Don't change the subject!

Are you seeing someone else?

Who is she?

I hope you both drop dead!

If someone comes in here looking for me

give him these keys

What do I tell him?

Tell him he's an asshole!

Taxi!

Hey, did he pick up the keys?

No, not yet

Do you have an extra cigarette?

Sure

Rolled it myself

Thanks

You okay?

Yeah

I haven't had one in a while

I only smoke when I get stressed out

Well, you shouldn't worry so much

That way you'll avoid lung cancer

Do you think she's pretty?

Who?

The girl he was in here with

Oh, she was okay I guess... I mean

Not the type I would prefer to have my pork chops with

but "each man to his own", right?

Yeah right

Hello

Hey

I need someone to talk to

Do you think he'll pick up the keys?

I don't know

I've had customers leaving keys here for years

Sometimes they pick them up in a few days

Sometimes it takes a few weeks

Well, what about most of the time?

Most of the time, the keys stay in the jar

Well why do you keep them?

You should just throw them out

No

No I couldn't do that

Why not?

If I threw these keys away

then those doors will be closed forever

And that shouldn't be up to me to decide

Should it?

Guess I'm just looking for a reason

Well, from my observations

sometimes it's better off not knowing

and other times there's no reason to be found

Everything has a reason

It's like these pies and cakes

At the end of every night

the cheesecake and the apple pie are always completely gone The peach cobbler

and the chocolate mousse cake are nearly finished

But there's always a whole blueberry pie left untouched

So what's wrong with the blueberry pie?

There's nothing's wrong with the blueberry pie

It's just people make other choices

You can't blame the blueberry pie

It's just no one wants it

Wait!

I want a piece

With ice cream?

Leave it to me

Here we go

I hope you enjoy it

Thanks

It's not bad

Really?

You should try some

No, I'm alright. I have my own

Will you tell me the stories behind those other keys?

What for?

I just wondered how they all ended up here

Pick one

Those belonged to a young couple a few years ago.

They were naive enough to believe

that they were gonna spend the rest of their lives together

Well, what happened?

Life happened

Things happened. Yeah, time happened

It's pretty much always the case more or less

Or maybe one of them ran off with someone else

Maybe the feelings just went away

What about these?

Those belonged to a little old lady

Her best friend would pick them up and come to visit her

She dropped them off and I never saw her again

I presumed, I mean, she was pretty old

I presumed she passed away or something

What about these?

These keys used to belong to a young lad

from Manchester England

who made plans and had dreams

of running every marathon in this country

starting in New York

He was going to write a journal about his experiences

and ended up running a cafe.

Later they were given to a Russian girl

who loved collecting keys

and watching sunsets

Unfortunately, she loved sunsets more than the keys

and ended up disappearing into one

Why didn't you go looking for her?

When I was little

me mum used to take me to the park on weekends

She said if I ever got lost

I had to stay in one place so that she'd find me

Does that work?

Not really

She got lost once looking for me

Eh, you want some more ice cream?

No thanks

You sure?

Yeah I'm fine. Thanks

You're late

Same as usual?

No thanks

Can I have my keys back?

Yeah, sure

So...

You two have patched things up then?

Thanks

Lousy bloody camera

Hey!

Alright. Come on. Break it... Alright!

Take it outside. Take it out...

None of your business cupcake!

Don't start with me mate!

Don't you start... Come here!

Right you come here

Get out of my place!

Don't start with me!

Get out!

Hey you haven't paid yet!

Can I have a tissue?

What happened?

Did he hit you?

No!

Well what?

I got mugged on the subway

I thought Pork Chop lived around here?

He does

What were you doing on the subway?

Well...

I just needed some time to prepare myself

I was gonna get off in a few stops

I don't know, I just

The next thing I knew, I ended up in the Bronx

That's a very interesting way to prepare yourself

I've never been very good at confrontation

Some people enjoy it

Not me

Hey, are you alright?

Should we call the police or something?

No

No, he didn't get away with very much

Especially after I kicked him in the balls

You didn't

Wait, what happened to you?

I ate too much chocolate today

What's wrong with your camera?

Oh, I don't know

It's been in a lousy mood these past few days

It doesn't really keep people from stealing, does it?

No

Not really

But I like having it around, 'cause

for me it's like my diary

You know?

Some nights, I watch the tapes back and

I'm amazed at how much I've missed

That's going on right in front of me

You must have a lot of tapes

I don't keep them all

I'm not that weird

Only the highlights

Can I take a look?

Sure

Come around

She left behind her set of keys and disappeared that night

How do you say goodbye to someone you can't imagine living without? I didn't say goodbye

I didn't say anything

I just walked away

At the end of that night

I decided to take the longest way to cross the street

Dear Jeremy

As you can see by this postcard

I'm now in Memphis, Tennessee

Hey Lizzy, hurry up with those damn pick-ups will ya!

Coming!

Come on hustle it!

It took me a long time to get here

And I'm not sure how long I'll be staying

So did you like the movie?

I think the movie was good. Yeah.

It was very entertaining.

What about you?

I liked it.

It wasn't what I expected.

Too many people in this...

in this movie theater.

Yeah?

I don't do very well in--with crowds.

I know.

It was great, you know,

very well done, very well done.

And the way he describes, you know,

the different steps that led him to do that--

that's what's interesting.

It's a documentary kind of movie.

I thought it wasn't going to happen.

They kept saying, "Oh, we're not gonna get away with this."

And they did. I was surprised.

Yeah, it was good.

Would you watch it again?

Yeah.

Sorry to interrupt. Have you decided on a wine this evening?

-Yes. -What would you like?

Can--?

-red is good for you? -Yeah.

Can we get a bottle of--?

The first time he asked for money was two years ago.

The second time--six months ago.

And now, two days ago,

he's asking for some more.

And he's a friend.

And, you know, I help him.

But it's a lot of money we're talking about.

And it never ends.

So what do I do?

What would you do?

It sounds like he's taking advantage of you.

It's good to see you.

It's always good to see you.

Thank you.

Come here.

Attaboy.

Get 'em. Get 'em.

Good. 20, 19,

18, 17. Focus.

16, 15, 14...

Two.

Good stall here. Good stall.

Beautiful, Zizzo. Drop it down.

Attaboy. Good set.

Ow.

-I'm just kidding. -How're you feeling?

-All right. -Eat your Wheaties this morning?

-My Wheaties? -Yeah.

I had my muscle milk this morning, Wheaties after.

So what's going down? What's new?

You want to hear everything or just recent things?

Let's start at two or three and work your way up.

Let me ask you a question.

Yeah.

What are you doing this weekend?

What am I doing this weekend?

No, the other trainer I'm working with.

-I don't know. I don't know. -I do.

Chelsea, I'm ordering breakfast.

Do you know what you want?

I'll just have whatever you're having. Thank you.

What about the bailout? How do you think that's going to turn out? That's not gonna work.

You need more money in the system,

a lot more money than what the government is putting in.

It's just the beginning.

So I don't know what to tell you.

I think it's better to stay cash and...

that's what I do anyway, so it's good for me.

No it's not.

I'm out of here.

Thank you very much.

-I hope I'll see you soon. -Me too.

-Take care. -You too.

I met with Philip on October 5th and 6th.

I wore a Michael Kors dress and shoes with La Perla--

I wore a Michael Kors dress and shoes

with La Perla lingerie underneath

and diamond stud earrings.

We met at 7:30 at the hotel and had a drink downstairs.

He liked my dress but didn't go into detail why

and didn't mention anything else about my appearance.

So how did it go?

It was fine. We had a nice dinner,

you know, went back to the hotel.

But he's very well endowed

and sometimes I just can't handle him that long.

Lucky for me, though, he's attractive,

so that helps and I at least enjoy myself.

But it was weird when I left.

He didn't even stand up

to hug me or say goodbye or kiss me on the cheek.

It was a very awkward departure.

He's never done that before.

We ate dinner at Blue Hill.

Philip didn't ask for a menu

and had the chef serve us a five-course meal,

a different wine with each course.

We went to the 9:40 showing of "Man on Wire"

at the Sunshine Cinema. And he liked the movie.

We went back to the hotel and talked for half an hour,

mostly about a friend of his

that keeps borrowing money from him and not paying it back.

Then we had sex for about an hour. After, we talked about--

After, we talked for about 15 minutes and he fell asleep.

At breakfast he briefly told me his worries regarding the economy and said I should invest my money in gold.

He also mentioned a book about how the Federal Reserve works. He didn't make another appointment.

Sometimes clients think they want the real you,

but at the end of the day they don't.

They want what they want you to be. They want you to be

something else. They don't want you to be yourself.

Suppose I'm that rare client that really wants to--

if they wanted you to be yourself,

they wouldn't be paying you.

I know you've been buying five sessions at a time.

Right.

You realize you're losing money by doing that, right?

Malby signing off, about to embark on the first day of the rest of my life.

And, hey, if you're at graduation, come say hi.

I'll be the one in black. Bye!

You stumble down a yellow brick road

Spinning your shoes in the air

The air

Then you hold your breath and count to nine

Hoping that soon somebody will find you

Find you

双人英文剧本篇七：美丽中国英文剧本2

NARRATOR: Beneath billowing clouds,

in China's far south-western Yunnan Province,

lies a place of mystery and legend,

of mighty rivers and some of the oldest jungles in the world.

Here, hidden valleys nurture strange and unique creatures

and colourful tribal cultures.

Jungles are rarely found this far north of the tropics.

So why do they thrive here?

And how has this rugged landscape

come to harbour the greatest natural wealth in all China?

In the remote southwest corner of China a celebration is about to take place.

Dai people collect water for the most important festival of their year.

The Dai call themselves the people of the water.

Yunnan's river valleys have been their home for over 2,000 years.

By bringing the river water to the temple,

they honour the two things holiest to them,

Buddhism and their home.

The Dai give thanks for the rivers and fertile lands

which have nurtured their culture.

Though to some, it might seem just an excuse

for the biggest water fight of all time.

Dai lives are changing as towns get bigger and modernise

but the Water Splashing Festival is still celebrated by all.

The rivers which lie at the heart of Dai life and culture

flow from the distant mountains of Tibet,

southward through central Yunnan in great parallel gorges.

The Dai now live in the borders of tropical Vietnam and Laos

but their legends tell of how their ancestors came here

by following the rivers from mountain lands in the cold far north.

Lying at the far eastern end of the Himalayas,

the Hengduan Mountains form Yunnan's northern border with Tibet.

Kawakarpo, crown of the Hengduan range, is a site of holy pilgrimage.

Yet its formidable peak remains unconquered.

Yunnan's mountains are remote, rugged and inaccessible.

Here the air is thin

and temperatures can drop below minus 40 degrees.

This is home to an animal that's found nowhere else on earth.

The Yunnan snub-nosed monkey.

It's found only in these few isolated mountain forests.

No other primate lives at such high altitudes,

but these are true specialists.

These ancient mountain dwellers have inspired legends.

Local Lisu people consider them their ancestors,

calling them the wild men of the mountains.

During heavy snowfalls even these specialists cannot feed.

It seems a strange place for a monkey.

Between snows, the monkeys waste no time in their search for food.

At this altitude there are few fruits or tender leaves to eat.

Ninety percent of their diet

is made up of the fine dry wisps of a curious organism.

Half fungus, half plant, it's lichen.

How have monkeys, normally associated with lowland jungle,

come to live such a remote mountain existence?

This is not the only remarkable animal found within these isolated high peaks.

A Chinese red panda.

Solitary and quiet, it spends much of its time in the tree tops.

Despite its name,

the red panda is only a very distant relative of the giant panda.

It is actually more closely related to a skunk.

But it does share the giant panda's taste for bamboo.

Southwest China's red pandas are known for their very strong facial markings

which distinguish them from red pandas found anywhere else in the Himalayas.

Like the monkeys, they were isolated in these high forests

when the mountains quite literally rose beneath them

in the greatest mountain-building event in recent geological history.

Over the last 30 million years,

the Indian subcontinent has been pushing northwards into Eurasia.

On the border between India and Tibet,

the rocks have been raised eight kilometres above sea level

creating the world's highest mountain range, the Himalayas.

But to the east

the rocks have buckled into a series of steep north-south ridges,

cutting down through the heart of Yunnan,

the parallel mountains of the Hengduan Shan.

These natural barriers serve to isolate Yunnan's plants and animals

in each adjacent valley.

While the huge temperature range between the snowy peaks

and the warmer slopes below

provides a vast array of conditions for life to thrive.

Through spring

the Hengduan slopes stage one of China's greatest natural spectacles.

The forests here are among the most diverse botanical areas in the world.

Over 18,000 plant species grow here of which 3,000 are found nowhere else.

Until little more than a century ago, this place was unknown outside China.

But then news reached the West

of a mysterious, hidden world of the Orient.

Hidden among the mountains, a lost Shangri-la paradise.

Western high society, in the grip of a gardening craze,

was eager for exotic species from faraway places.

This gave rise to a new breed of celebrity adventurers,

intrepid botanist-explorers known as the Plant Hunters.

Yunnan became their Holy Grail.

The most famous was Joseph Rock, a real life Indiana Jones.

Remarkable film footage

captured his entourage on a series of expeditions

as they pushed into the deepest corners of Yunnan.

In glorious colour he recorded the plant life he found

on special photographic glass plates.

Sending thousands of specimens back to the West,

the Plant Hunters changed the gardens of the world forever.

Rock's success was born of a massive effort.

For to find his Shangri-la,

not only had he to traverse endless mountain ranges,

but some of the deepest gorges in the world.

The Nujiang is called the Angry River.

This 300-kilometre stretch of raging rapids

is as much a barrier to life as are the mountains above.

But the Plant Hunters weren't the first people to travel here.

Along the Nujiang,

less than 30 rope crossings allow locals passage across the torrents.

双人英文剧本篇八：The Queen英文剧本

After weeks of campaigning on the road...Tony Blair and his family, finally strolled the few hundred yards to the polling station, this election day morning.Amongst the Labour faithful up and down the country...there is an enormous sense of pride in Mr. Blair's achievements.And the confidence that he is about to become the youngest Prime Minister this century.

Q:Have you voted yet, Mr.Crawford?

--Yes, Ma'am...I was there when they opened, first in line, at 7 o'clock...I don't mind telling you... It wasn't for Mr. Blair.Q:Your not a moderniser then?

--Certainly not...We're in danger of losing too much, that is good about this country, as it is.------------There is a growing sense of excitement...

Q:I envy you, being able to vote.Not the actually ticking of the box, although...it would be nice to experience that once.But the sheer joy of being partial.

--Yes...Of course one forgets that as Sovereign, you're not entitled to vote.Q:No... --Still, you won't catch me feeling sorry for you.You might not be allowed to vote, Ma'am...but it is your government.Q:Yes...I suppose that is some consolation.

Q:Good morning.--Shall I draw the curtains. Q:Yes...So, did you stay up all night? --Yes, Ma'am.Q:And was it as expected?

--Yes, Ma'am.Mr. Blair. By a landslide.Q:Oh, I see...

They've stopped the traffic, completely...For Tony Blair's first day of power, in London.You got the ceremonial with tourists, the official...and you got a lovely summer's day...Tony Blair waving to the crowds, people waving to them there...I guess most of them do know it's the...the Prime Minister waiting... Lining in the streets there.

--The Prime Minister is on his way, Ma'am.

Q:To be, Robin.. The Prime Minister to be...I haven't asked him yet.He's a hard one to read, isn't he?

--Yes... On the one hand his background is quite establishment...father a conservative, educated at Fettes. Where he was tutored by the same man as the Prince of Wales.Q:Well, we'll try not to hold that against him.

--On the other, his manifesto promises the most radical modernisation...and shake up of the constitution in 300 years.

Q:Oh, you mean he is going to try and modernise us?

--I wouldn't let it past him...he's married to a woman with known anti-monarchist sympathies...you may remember her curtsy, the first time you met.It could best be described as.. shallow.

Q:I don't measure the depth of a curtsy, Robin. I leave that to my sister.

--The atmosphere at Downing Street is expected to very informal...Everyone on first name terms...at the Prime Minister's insistence.Q:What, as in call me Tony? --Yes, Ma'am.Q:Oh, I don't like that.Could we send him a protocol sheet?

P:Funny, I'm actually rather nervous.--Why? You've met her often enough before. P:I know, but.. never one to one...and never as Prime Minister.

--Well, just remember.. you're a man that's just been elected by the whole nation. P:But she's still...you know.. The Queen.

--When we reach the audience room...I will knock. We will not wait to be called.. we shall go straight inside.Standing by the door, we bow.. from the neck...I will introduce you...The Queen will extend her hand.. you go to her...bow again.. then shake her hand.A couple of other things...It's Ma'am as in ham...not mam as in farm. And when you're in the presence...at no point must you show your back.

P:The presence?

--Yes, sir...That's what it is called, when you're in Her Majesty's company.Would you like to sit down, Mrs. Blair?

Q:How nice to see you again, Mr. Blair.And congratulations.The children must be very proud?P:I hope so.Q:You have three, haven't you?P:That's right.

Q:Oh, how lovely.Such a blessing...children.Please, do sit down.

P:Thank you.Q:Have they shown you how to start a nuclear war, yet?P:Ah, no... Q:Oh, first thing we do. Apparently...Then we take away your passport, and spend the rest of the time sending you around the world.

P:You obviously know my job, better than I do...

Q:Well you are my 10th Prime Minister, Mr. Blair.My first, of course, was Winston Churchill,he sat in your chair... in a front coat...and top hat.He was kind enough to give, a shy young girl like me, quite an education.P:I can imagine...

Q:With time, one has hopefully added experience to that education. And a little wisdom...better enabling us to execute our constitutional responsibility.To advise, guide, and warn the government of the day.

P:Advise which I...look forward to receiving.

Q:Yes, we'll save that for our weekly meetings.If there's nothing else, I believe we have some business to attend to.

P:Of course...Your Majesty, my party has won the election...so I come now to ask your permission to form a govern...

Q:No, Mr. Blair. Mr. Blair, I ask the question.The duty falls upon me as your Sovereign to invite you to become Prime Minister...and to form a government in my name.And if you agree, the custom is to say yes...P:Yes...

Q:Mrs. Blair... Lovely to see you again.And congratulations. You must be very proud. --Yes... Q:And exhausted, I imagine...Where will you be spending the summer? --France. Q:Oh, lovely.P:You'll be at Balmoral, right?

Q:Yes, I can't wait. It's a wonderful place.You know my great great grandmother Victoria said of it...in Balmoral all seems to breed...freedom and peace and make one forget the world and its sad turmoils.Oh, excuse me.Oh, yes of course...I'm so sorry, we're going to have to leave it there.Not to short was it? 15 minutes...One doesn't want to be rude.--No, no.

--hank you very much for coming, now fuck off!

P:I know, what was all that about?

--God knows... Diana. Whatever it is it will be something to do with Diana.

Princess Diana embroiled in more controversy as she pulls out of a meeting with MP's... Princess Diana moved today to patch up her relations with the former royal nanny... Princess Diana flew to Milan today for the memorial service for the murdered Italian fashion designer...Gianni Versace.Where tonight, another royal controversy sparkles...after finding herself embroiled in her second controversy this week...I am not a political figure...Princess Diana sailed out into the Mediterranean...in one of Mr. Mohamed al-Fayed's yachts today...with his son.A quarter of a million pounds, for photographs which appear to show the couple embracing...Once again, her judgement's under scrutiny...

--Robin Janvrin.What?I want everyone in ASAP.Ma'am?Ma'am?Ma'am, Mr.Janvrin is here to see you.Q:What?

--Good evening, Ma'am.I'm sorry to disturb. But I just had a call from our Embassy in Paris.It's The Princess of Wales.--Why?What's she done now?

P:I see, em...Who are we speaking to then?Right, well keep me updated.It's Diana, she's been in a car accident in Paris.--Is it serious?

P:Apparently.. Dodi Fayed is dead.

Let's just recap on the details of those injuries, Maxine.Yes Nick, what they're saying is...that the Princess is in the intensive care unit of a south-east Paris hospital.She has a concussion, a broken arm, and...

--What was she doing in Paris? I thought she was supposed to be in London.

Q:Oh, you know what she's like.Charles, isn't this awful?What are you going to do about the boys?--Let them sleep until we know more.Q:Yes, that's sensible. --I should go to Paris. I told my people to start organising a jet.

Q:What, a private one? --Yes...

Q:Isn't that precisely the sort of extravagance they always attack us for?

--How else am I supposed to get to Paris at this time of night?The airport at Aberdeen will be closed.

---Charles...Use the royal flight. They keep one plane on permanent standby...in case I should kick the bucket.

Q:No mummy! That's out of the question. This isn't a matter of state.

--What are you talking about?

Q:Diana is no longer a member of the royal family.She's not a HRH. This is a private matter.--She's mother to your grandchildren.

---What is happening now? ---I don't know... I can't hear...everyone's shouting.

--Thanks for coming in.The Ambassador, from Paris.Good evening, sir.---Yes?

--I have just spoken to our Ambassador in Paris, Ma'am...I'm afraid it's not good news...No!No, no, no...

Diana, Princess of Wales, has died, after a car crash in Paris.The french government announced her death just before 5 o'clock this morning.

P:What have I got on this week?

--You're writing your maiden conference speeches, Prime Minister.

P:Well, let's cancel everything else.This is going to be massive...I'd better make a statement in the morning.

--Well, you'll be pleased to know I've already started coming up with ideas. P:God, she's only been dead an hour...--Well, would you prefer I didn't do my job?

--They're going go to go back to sleep.Try anyway...My private secretary's office have found a travel agency open in New York that will...sell me a flight to Paris, with an hours stop over in Manchester.Perhaps now you might like to consider whether it's still an extravagance to bring back the mother...of the future King of England... In one of our planes?

Q:Alright...of course.John, I don't want the boys to see the news and get upset... first thing in the morning, I want the radio taken out of the bedroom, and the television taken out of the nursery.--Yes, Ma'am.

--Well, well, well...Q:Yes.--Are you alright?Your sister called.From Tuscany. Q:Well, I hope you told her to come back, cut her holiday short.--I did. Q:I can't imagine she was pleased...--That's putting it mildly.

Q:What did she say?

--Something about Diana managing...to be even more annoying dead than alive... Q:Just make sure you never let the boys hear you talk like that.

--Of course...Something to help you go down.

Q:No, I think I'll write my diary a little longer.--Fine.I'm going to bed.

We've heard nothing official from the Palace yet, we still don't know when we're gonna get any further statements from inside the Palace..or of course when the royal family are due back.

P:That's how she will remain, in our minds, our hearts...forever.OK? Got it! --Where will you do it?P:We'll do it at the church. On the way in.

--Alright, I'll organise it.P:Hang on... I wanna watch this.

This is not the time for incriminations, but for sadness...however I would say that I always believed the press would kill her in the end...but not even I could imagine they'll take such a direct hand in her death...as seems to be the case.It would appear that every proprietor and editor...of every publication that has payed for intrusive and exploitative photographs of her...has blood on his hands today.

--Not the press, mate. You got the wrong villain.Tony...P:got to go...

--You about to speak to The Queen?P:Yeah...

--Ask her if she greased the breaks.P:Now, now...

P:Hello?Right, okay...Q:Is The Prince of Wales with the boys?

--Yes, Ma'am Q:And he's going to Paris?

--Yes...I'm sorry to disturb, Ma'am... Ma'am...but I have the Prime Minister for you, from his constituency.Lucky you..Q:Thank you, Robin. I'll take it in the study. P:Good morning, Your Majesty. Q:Prime Minister.

P:May I say right away, how very sorry I am...and that the thoughts and prayers of my family are with you at this terrible time.And with the Princes, in particular. Q:Thank you.

P:Is it your intention to make some kind of appearance?Or statement?

Q:No, no! Certainly not.No member of the royal family will speak publicly about this. This is a private matter.We would all appreciate it, if it could be respected as such.

P:I see.I don't suppose anyone has had time to think about the funeral, yet? Q:We've spoken with the Spencer family, and it is their wish...it is their expressed wish, that this should be a private funeral with a memorial service to follow, in a month or so.P:Right...

Q:And given that Diana was no longer a member of the royal family...we have no other choice, but to respect their wishes.

P:I see...you don't feel that in view of her high profile popularity...it might be an idea to pay tribute to her life and achievements?Or even just to her as a mother? Q:Well, as I said, it's her family's wish...

P:And the public, Ma'am? The British people...you don't think a private funeral might be denying them a chance...Q:A chance to what?P:To share in the grief.

Q:This is a family funeral, Mr. Blair, not a fairground attraction.I think The Princess has already paid a high enough price...for exposure to the press...don't you?Now, if there's nothing else, I must get on.The children have to be looked after. P:Of course... well, goodbye Your Majes...Her instinct is to do nothing.Say nothing.. and give her a private funeral.--Are you surprised?She hated her guts.

P:Well, I think it's a mistake...They screwed up her life, let's hope they don't screw up her death.Where can I find a black tie?

Q:Oh, the chaplain called.He wanted to know, whether we should make any changes in the service.. any...special mention of Diana.--What did you say?

Q:Well, I told him not to change a thing.--Quite right...

Q:I think the less attention one draws to it, the better.For the boys.--Yes... Q:But I think maybe we should find some company for them...Some young people. --I'll take them for a long walk, this afternoon.. up Craggie Head.

Q:Yes, but no guns Phillip.. it is Sunday.

And we're going... in fact... I believe...to Sedgefield, the Prime Minister's constituency...where he is about to make a statement...yes the Prime Minister coming now, with his wife Cherie...

--He's on. Alastair, he's on. Come on!

P:...as her own life was often, sadly touched by tragedy...she touched the lives, of so many others in...in Britain, throughout the world...with joy...and with comfort.The people, everywhere...not just here in Britain, everywhere...they kept faith, with Princess Diana.They liked her, they loved her...they regarded her, as one of the people...she was the people's Princess.And that's how she will stay...how she will remain in our hearts...and in our memories...forever.

--A little over the top, don't you think?

P:The people of Britain, he said...kept faith with Princess Diana...

they loved her.. she was the people's Princess.

--Did we remember the Royal Standard? ---Yes, Sir.--And flowers?---Yes, Sir. --Good, 'cause if we leave it to the rural undertakers...they'll bring her back in a wooden crypt.

--Hello?---This is Lord Airlie, may I speak with the Prime Minister, please? --One moment, please.Lord Airlie.. The Lord Chamberlain in charge of the funeral.. you're meeting him at the airport.P:Lord Airlie.

--Good afternoon, Prime Minister, it's my job to organise all the ceremonial events. There is simply no precedent for the funeral of an ex-HRH.

P:Perhaps we shall plan for any contingency.

--Yes, I propose a meeting at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning at Buckingham Palace... Officials from all three Palaces, representatives from the Spencer family, the emergency services...would you send some of your people?

P:Absolutely, of course.Precedent!? Where do they find these people?

--Prime Minister...

P:I'm so sorry, Sir. If there's anything I..or my government, can do...

--They stood up, as we drove past, in cafes? in restaurants... removed their hats, this was Paris, one of the busiest cities in the world...and you could hear a pin drop.P:I imagine it will be the same here.

--The Palace would still prefer to see this as a private funeral.What are your feelings on that?

P:I...I think that will present us with difficulties.

--So do I...My mother, The Queen...comes from a generation of best equipped... she grew up in the war...I think.. what we need.. what this country needs...is a more modern perspective, if you follow...Balmoral is... P:I think I understand... An aircraft of the Queen's flight...brought The Princess' body home this evening... where the Prime Minister, Tony Blair, had gathered with members of his government.A single black hearse crossed the tarmac...and a Royal Air Force guard of honour, moved slowly forward.

Q:Has anyone heard from the Spencer's yet?Have they made up their minds when the funeral will be?--Well I don't know. Nobody tells me anything.

President Clinton was with his wife, when he heard the news last night.We liked her very much...we admired her work for children...for people with AIDS, for the cause of ending the scour of landmines...
