- "There is a new warmth these days in the friendship between South Africa and Britain..."
To mark the state visit of South African President Cyril Ramaphosa to Britain - the first state visit hosted by King Charles III - ITN Archive presents these rushes of Queen Elizabeth II hosting President Nelson Mandela at Buckingham Palace during his 1996 state visit to Britain. The Queen had invited Mandela to Britain following her own visit to South Africa in March 1995.
At a grand banquet, both Queen Elizabeth and President Mandela made powerful speeches discussing the past, present, and future of the relationship between Britain and South Africa. The Queen celebrated the progress made in improving racial equality in South Africa in the years since the end of apartheid. Both Mandela and the Queen joked about the England cricket team's tour of South Africa in 1995-6, which saw England lose a 5-match Test series to their hosts.
The banquet was attended by senior members of the Royal Family including Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, Prince Andrew, Duke of York, Princess Anne, Princess Royal, and Prince Charles, Prince of Wales. Other high-profile attendees included former Conservative Prime Minister Ted Heath, former Labour leader Neil Kinnock, Labour MP Bernie Grant, Archbishop of Canterbury George Carey, and veteran ITN journalist Trevor McDonald. President Mandela attended the banquet along with his daughter, Zenani Mandela-Diamini.

I am South African and I deeply miss that dignified and wise old man who made us all so proud. I also grieve the loss of Her Gracious Majesty, the Queen Mother and Prince Philip. Flights of angels sang them to their rest, may they rest in peace
Proud to look at this as a South African. Madiba was much loved all over the world. He is gone, but not forgotten. I know he had a relationship with HM the late Queen. They called each other on the name. This world has lost great Leaders with the passing on of our beloved Madiba and the much loved HM the Queen. If only we can learn from them, we would be better off. I salute them.
The Queen actually wore these jewels because Nelson Mandela told her how he admired her when she danced with Nkrumah in Ghana in 1961. Ghana was the first black colony to get full independence from Britain and Nkrumah its first black President. He, however wasn't enamoured of the Commonwealth and was flirting with the Soviet Union. Krushev had made a visit. The Queen was advised it was too dangerous for her to go but she insisted she was going not as Queen of Britain but Head of the Commonwealth.
The Queen flew into Accra and made headlines across the globe by dancing with Nkrumah wearing the same jewels she's seen wearing at the State banquet. Mandela told her he'd been very impressed by her and she had convinced him of her dedication to the Commonwealth. South Africa rejoined the Commonwealth under his leadership to the joy of the Queen. She had been crowned Queen of South Africa and had made her 21st birthday speech there during her first overseas tour to Southern Africa with her parents and sister in 1947.
She really loved him
How interesting to see Her Majesty clap at the end of Mr Mandela’s speech. Surely a very rare sign of approval (and display of affection).
Com'era contenta, la Regina Elisabetta, quando era con Nelson Mandela!
That year Queen Mother was 96 years old still good healthy. With compared her daughter Queen Elizabeth II died aged 96. 😢
Are you saying that by not living to 101 Elizabeth ll wasn't as remarkable?
@@richardring272 No, he isn't.
She QEII was a remarkable statesman in her own right
Watching all the way from South Africa. This is more than a joy to behold real royalty including our beloved Mr. President Mandela and his delegation. All of them are such royalty as far as I'm concerned. I'm in tears to pieces just watching this... Although I miss him, I'm glad in a way that Honorable Mandela is not here to see the damage done/is doing of Meghan and Harry to South Africa. As an American in the Foreign Service serving South Africa, I am highly embarrassed and offended by this #@!%^&* duo . Thank you for sharing.
Respect and admiration is due to them both.
Wow how historical moment
Два величайших человека современности! Просто глыбы!
WHO.....PUTIN and TRUMP.....YOUR RIGHT.........
@@zoserasematawi4123 your on drugs they are great but they dont scarifier like mandela lol
My first thoughts 2 days ago that shook me
ขอขอบคุณทุกท่านครับ
South Africans had such high hopes after the release of Madiba. Look at it now...
What do we do....?
Should have kept whites in charge then.
❤️❤️
Queen Elizabeth wasn't having it. She knew but I didn't know. I had no clue. I just figured it out within the past few days.
This visit was so uncomfortable. Nelson was mercurial, one minute jolly, the next like a statue. The Queen didn't know what to make of it and Prince Philip backed off the two Mandela's and was out.
The late Queen stated many times that they were good friends. For a man made of his means and being from a different world there are bound to be moments that appear uncomfortable
God places souls strategically. The recent ones in the Royal establishment are very different in mentality from the ancestry. The new ones make way for humanitarian change. Let groups not punish the current British Royal blood, but support the changes. Please.
What total and utter disrespect we lie in 2023 as the anc has disrespected the legacy of this great man... and trashed South Africa good and proper... currently.
Nelson mandela y los dama de los diamantes de sangre... que ironico
We did have a bright future until Jacob Zuma and his cronies destroyed so much in our beautiful country.
It was inevitable with the end of white rule.
Năm 1996 là thời gian mà Nữ Hoàng Elizabeth chưa từng biết đến 1 Người Tên là TH tại VN. Và Năm 1996 đó là khoảng thời gian mà Nữ Hoàng Elizabeth chưa có 1 Mong Muốn như năm 2012-2022 mà đến 8/9/2022 Mong Muốn Nhỏ Nhoi đó của Nữ Hoàng Elizabeth gửi đến VN vẫn chưa thể thực hiện được. Tôi Nói Đúng Không Thì Ai Là Con Người Đọc Được Comment này thì Người Đó Tự Hiểu nhé.Tội Nghiệp Nữ Hoàng Elizabeth 😭😭😭

victim (Mandela) and perpetrator(Queen Elizabeth II) eating together.
Yep the british queen who ruled south africa when apartheid was going on knows what she needs to do. To keep up appearances. Nelson Mandela imprisoned in 1962. South Africa a British colony until 1961.....
No the British Queen did not rule South Africa when apartheid was going on . South Africa was kicked out of the commonwealth because of the South African government position on apartheid and the Queen used her soft power to campaign for Nelson’s release from prison.
@@Sunny-tf5pp then how could it have been a colony
Nelson Mandela was also one of the few pew people who was able to call the Queen by her first name Elizabeth and not Her Majesty or M’am as almost everyone else did That was because they were such close friends.
@@Sunny-tf5pp look tell the truth and stop trying to change the way people think
@@pa7447 Everything I have posted is truth facts I am free to post a response to your false misinformation.
Nothing can be as beautiful as the British culture
