FEMALE OFFICER: Morning, Sir.

On the top floor.

MALE OFFICER: Thanks.

Uniforms are talking

to the neighbours.

It's a pretty bad one.

Mm.

Right, we're gonna need to speak

to friends and family.

Sure. Apparently,

there's a live-in girlfriend.

Jane Andrews. But nobody's seen her.

COMMENTATOR: Britain and the world

will celebrate the wedding of

The Prince and Princess of Wales.

Just after half past ten,

from Clarence House,

came the Glass Coach

and our first chance

to see Lady Diana.

Dress, half lace.

Veil, tantalisingly low.

The bride's procession

passed under Admiralty Arch

towards the roar

of the Trafalgar Square crowd.

And so Lady Diana,

in that truly stunning dress,

is well and truly launched

on her way to the cathedral.

And as the British people

celebrate their new Princess,

it's like something

out of a fairy tale.

I just can't seem to get enough. ♪

Oh, what's this sh*t?

I'm not watching this.

Yeah, turn it over, Jane.

No.

Yes!

No! I'm watching it.

Argh! Get off me!

Go away! Why would you do that,

you stuck-up cow? That hurt!

Stop! Enough, now.

DAD: Hey! Hey!

Mum!

I don't care. Out.

Do as your mother says, you.

And you.

You might as well go, as well.

What?!

Go, I've had enough.

Go on. Bloody psycho.

She looks so beautiful.

And so happy.

So she should. She's set for life.

Now, this one also comes in white.

But I always think the ivory

is ever so elegant.

Here you go.

Mm.

It's nice. I find lace

can scratch a bit, though.

No, feel how soft that is.

And the under wiring

is cushioned, see?

Yeah, so it's wonderfully

comfortable all through the day.

Hm.

We've been told Princess Diana

actually has several in this style.

Diana shops here?

Well, not in this branch

specifically, but

she's very down to earth.

Oh.

All right. Go on, then.

I'll take the ivory.

Wonderful. If you'd like

to come over to the till.

CUSTOMER CHUCKLES

Don't worry, Jane.

I'll take the lady over.

There's boxes need unpacking.

If you'd like to come this way

with me. Thank you.

'Thought you were heading off

to London in June?'

Actually, we're not leaving

till July now.

And this is still, er,

you and Timmo?

The one in the band?

That's right.

His cousin lives in Earl's Court,

so we can crash there for a bit.

So what you gonna do for money?

Or is Timmo dead rich?

BEX SCOFFS.

We'll get jobs, of course.

Yeah, but there's the other stuff

about him hurting her.

that Janey was missing

I just didn't know what to do.

You have no idea

where she might've gone?

No, none.

And I've been calling and texting,

Jane?

Do you want to follow me?

Right, shall we make a start?

You've no previous experience

in domestic service?

Well no.

I've been working in retail

since college.

And I assume this course you did

involved sewing,

caring for clothes, and so on?

Oh, yes.

I mean, it was

a foundation course

so my main focus was on design.

But as well as original designs,

we learnt about styling

and putting together outfits, accessories.

I'm very good

at planning a wardrobe.

But I'm also good at ironing

and mending.

Ah, well, that's certainly

what's needed here.

And like my CV says,

I'm very organised

very good with detail.

And I'm punctual and hard-working.

And I got a distinction

on my course.

Have you seen this?! I mean,

seriously, I can't bloody win!

Oh, hello there.

This is Jane Andrews, Ma'am,

for the assistant dresser position.

Your Royal Highness.

Just look at what they've done.

I wore that months ago! But still,

I'M the one copying Diana.

That's just nonsense.

For heaven's sake.

The whole thing's bloody ridiculous!

They're nothing like each other.

They're not even

from the same period. What's that?

I mean

yours is clearly

Victorian inspired, Ma'am.

The, er, style is more nautical,

whereas hers has the lace.

Exactly. Clever girl.

So, have you come far

Jane Andrews?

Quite far, Ma'am.

From somewhere up in the north,

I'm guessing?

That's right, Ma'am.

And why are you leaving?

Did you find it too grim

"oop" north?

RUTH CHUCKLES SOFTLY

Not quite, Ma'am.

I just think I'd be better suited

to a palace.

Hm.

Well, then I think she'd better

join us, then, don't you?

Right. Here you go.

Well, I'll leave you

to get yourself sorted.

Thanks very much.

The Duchess rises

between seven and ten,

so you need to be ready

with the wake-up tea -

hot water and chamomile, and

don't forget to take the bag out.

Does she take milk?

You don't usually put milk

in chamomile tea.

No, of course not.

Place the tea by the bed,

open the curtains and leave.

Do not speak.

As soon as she's awake,

you need to draw the bath.

But hot water only -

she'll put in her own cold.

like she'd been down the pit?

I told you she didn't look suitable.

Well, The Duchess

wants to give her a chance.

But it's not fair on her,

though, is it?

I mean, she's obviously

out of her depth.

Exactly. I mean,

just look at her shoes.

A m*rder*r?

You couldn't be more wrong.

I've known her for years.

Janey doesn't have

a violent bone in her body.

Should we be worried? I mean

Jesus, if she's on the run,

do you think any of the rest of us

are in danger?

How are you?

'I'm surprised you've got time

for phone calls.'

I just wanted to say a quick hello.

'Still, you don't want them

to think you're slacking, do you?'

It's fine, Mum.

I was telling your Auntie Kay

Don't mention it!

About the about the thing

with the dressing gown

Mum, I told you,

you mustn't repeat stuff.

'Oh, it's only Kay!'

And she couldn't believe what

you were saying about the shoes,

that you actually had to stretch out

the new ones by wearing them!

'Yeah, well, you can't risk

getting blisters on an engagement.'

Well, that's what I told her.

I don't know.

It's a whole other world, in't it?

Yeah, it's

It's not really

what I thought it would be.

'Well, it's early days.'

And it's like I always say -

nothing worth having comes easy.

No, I know.

I'm just not really sure

it's a good fit.

Don't be daft.

What's up?

I've been telling everyone

how well you're doing.

I know, but

' "But" nothing.

'Look, most of the girls round here,

they're stuck in factories

than that.

Please don't go starting

all that again.

I'm not, I just

Oh, thank you, Jane. You're a star.

Of course, when I first met her,

she was this sweet little thing

who'd just landed this super job.

She had this very clear idea

of the life that she wanted.

And she was determined to have it.

Of course she was ambitious.

Why shouldn't she be?

SARAH: I know it feels impossible.

Darling, believe me, I do.

You just have to tell him

how you feel.

Oh, darling, what's the use?

Because nothing will change

until you do.

This is what I keep saying.

There comes a point where you just

have to seize the bull by the horns.

Morning, Jane.

Is that?

The Princess of Wales?

They usually have a girlie lunch

when she comes to use the pool.

I mean, between you and me,

I think she just likes to get out

of that God-awful house.

And, of course, The Duchess

loves playing agony aunt.

Really?

Lord, yes. She likes nothing better

than advising people

about their love lives.

Wait till she starts asking

about yours.

Super shoes, by the way.

Are they Italian?

Er, yes.

Very nice. Jane, there's a parcel

for you downstairs.

Can't they send it up

with a footman?

SHE SCOFFS

Goodness me, Lady Jane.

There's a reception tonight,

so they're busy.

Fine.

Of course, The Duchess had enough

of her own problems to deal with.

People can be so cruel.

Oh.

Oh, it's you, Jane.

I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness.

I didn't see you there.

It's all right.

Here, do you want one?

Er, no. Thank you, Ma'am.

I shouldn't, either. But hey-h*.

Did you see this?

They're doing polls now, apparently.

"Who would you rather sleep with,

The Duchess of York or a goat?"

What?

I know. Vile, isn't it?

I'm so sorry, Ma'am.

It's like the Duke says -

once you join the Firm,

you're fair game.

He tells me I'm too sensitive.

That sounds like my ex, Timmo.

Oh, yes?

He was always saying

I was too sensitive

that I couldn't take a joke.

Trouble is, he wasn't very funny.

And what did this "Timmo" do

for a living?

Well, he said he was in a band,

but he spent most of his time

polishing his car.

Is that why you dumped him?

No.

That's because I caught him

shagging a barmaid.

CHUCKLES

What a sh*t!

I hope you gave him what for.

Oh, I did, Ma'am.

Although she was welcome to him,

to be honest.

He was rather underwhelming

in the manhood department.

SARAH CHUCKLES

And you don't want that.

You know

you're a lot like me, Jane.

You've got spirit.

WOMAN: Oh, my God!

You lucky cow, Gillian!

WOMAN 2: Absolutely stunning!

Gigantic!

GILLIAN: I know, look!

Oh! Sorry, Your Royal Highness.

Oh, what's going on?

Gillian finally bagged the Viscount.

About bloody time!

That's excellent news.

We'll take her out for champers

to celebrate.

Jolly good. Well, make sure that

you put the first round on my card.

That's very kind of you, Ma'am.

Oh, and take Jane with you.

You know what they say -

best way to get over an ex,

get under someone better.

Right, girls. Who's up for Wedgies?

JANE'S DAD, CHUCKLING: Yeah.

Well, she did want to.

It's just not Palace protocol.

Wait till you see the present

she got me, though, Mum.

The most beautiful cut-glass bowl.

It's the same design as the

glassware they use at the palace.

Well, she obviously thinks

very highly of you.

Just like a princess.

Our princess.

You happy, love?

Yeah.

And, of course, she was

terribly young when she got married.

'She was only just starting out

in her career.'

Aleksandra.

Good Lord, we've been overrun!

I know. There must be 20

who didn't RSVP.

Are we still all right

Oh, aren't you clever?

Right, better see if our auctioneer

has found his gavel.

Jane! Don't look now,

don't look now.

That's her new friend. The American.

But I thought Prince Andrew

was coming tonight?

Cancelled at the last minute.

So she's lined up a replacement.

Ah, she's playing with fire,

and she knows it.

She might as well put up a sign.

I very much fear that has "divorce"

written all over it.

Well, better start

polishing up our CVs.

it tends to be last in

money so that he can marry me.

I mean, can you imagine?

I don't give a damn about all that.

I'd throw it all over in a minute.

Oh, and while I remember, I want

that pencil skirt for Tuesday.

The black denim one? He says

it makes my arse look magnificent.

Right, Ma'am.

Ah! So, yeah.

I'll wear it when he takes me

to lunch on Tuesday.

You're going out for lunch?

Well, why shouldn't we?

We're just two good friends

sharing a meal. Nothing to see here.

Isn't it a bit of a risk?

Oh, for God's sake, Jane!

I thought you of all people

would understand.

You know what it's been like.

I'd been beaten down

till I felt completely dead inside!

And now I now I feel alive.

Wonderfully, gloriously alive.

And believe me,

that's worth any risk.

Because a life without passion

well, that's no life at all.

Hey.

Oh, how was the party?

It's like she doesn't care

who sees them.

Well, would it be

the end of the world?

What do you mean?

for this American chap.

You could always do something else.

a bit less all-consuming.

Only a job?

Mm.

It's not "only a job".

a bit more of an ordinary life.

I don't want an "ordinary life"!

in her job.

She was very good at it.

Totally loyal. Very discreet.

I think she spent so much time

with the bloody Royals,

she started to think

she was one of them.

ALEKSANDRA:

'Her devotion to The Duchess

'was really quite extreme.

'She practically worshipped

the ground she walked on.'

Frankly, I found it a bit much.

DOGS BARKING Thank you.

DOOR CLOSES

Ma'am?

SARAH: 'Her Majesty knew everything

about the American and me.'

Where we met, what we

She says I'm to cease

all contact immediately,

before I "bring disgrace

on the family".

What are you going to do, Ma'am?

The truth is

I don't know how much longer

I can do this.

It feels like death.

But to make that change, to

throw everything over

and strike out on my own,

I just don't know

that I have the strength.

You are the strongest person

I know, Ma'am.

You realise it'll mean

leaving everything behind?

The minute I say the word,

I'll be out on my ear,

persona non grata.

I mean, I'll have my girlies,

and they'll still be protected,

but

the rest.

I'll have to let everyone go.

It'll just be you and me, Jane.

Assuming

you'll stand by me?

Always, Ma'am.

DOOR OPENS,

CLOSES

You're late back.

You hungry?

Not really, no.

Shall I just get something

for myself, then?

Do whatever you want.

Sarah and I have an early start.

HAIRDRYER WHIRRING

Of course,

if you're trying to reach Jane,

you do know who you should talk to?

KNOCK ON DOOR Come.

We, er, appreciate you giving up

your time like this, Ma'am.

Not at all. The least I can do.

Although I honestly have to say,

I can't believe it. Jane?

She was always so

Well, it's the last thing

I would've expected.

No, I'm sure, Ma'am.

Anyway, er,

this shouldn't take long.

Oh, right. What exactly

do you want me to do?

'Jane.'

It's Sarah, The Duchess of York.

The police

need to talk to you, so

if you get this message,

please, you must come forward

and help them.

I know you must be afraid

but it's really

the only thing you can do.

Oh, Jane.

We've been through

so much together, you and I.

However did it come to this?
