Prince Philip, an enigma.
From military service to the royal family, Prince Philip is not your run of the mill stiff upper lip royalty by any means.
Walking two steps behind Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth ever since she became Queen in 1952, Philips's loyalty and service are undoubted.
For many years before then and many years since he has been the supporting man, husband and father that the Royal Family has needed him to be.
For over six decades he has fulfilled his duty as Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.Over the years his personality has shone through in his charitable work and public appearances.
His quick wit and charm have endeared him to many- and sometimes got him into trouble, but he will always be admired for his service to both the queen and country.

Prince Philip was a good man.
so am i 🦅🇺🇸
Sad to think they are both gone.
Those early pics of him are heartthrob level. No wonder Elizabeth fell for him
Philip was the best
I think he was truly royal and a great gentleman
I hollered when he told the photographer to "take the f**king picture!" at the end of the video😂
REST IN PEACE
PHILIP YOU DID A
GREAT JOB FOR ENGLAND.....AND
THE WORLD.....
🙏🙏🙏
AND YOU MADE
YOUR POINT......
NO DOUBT.......
Her Majesty, not "her royal highness".
No, Ingrid Seward, his mother didn't "go into a sanitorium", her husband had her committed to an asylum (where she was given electro-convulsive therapy) while he decamped to the Riviera with his mistress. The Japanese didn't surrender at the Battle of Matapan (which is in the mediterranean) but in Tokyo Bay.
Also, none of his family had relatives in Greece. He was essentially Danish, German and Russian.
just 1 problem can we not have a VoiceOver by some one of UK origin
They can't pronounce Edinburgh correctly it's horrible 😮
It's likely a computer generated voice-over, as most of them are these days. Not a "some one" at all.
And the technology involved is of USA and not UK origin, I suspect. Get used to it.....😢
Mon Repos.
You lost me right away when the ignorant makers of this said: “her royal highness Queen Elizabeth II”…what a bunch of amateurs
so many innacuracies.....get it right if its a tribute....fool !
what a fantastic man he was , never to be forgotten ! 😁🙏🙏
Philip had a difficult upbringing. He was a good consort to Queen Elizabeth. And a hard working man for the country. RIP 🙏
For all the Commonwealth
This was supposed to be about Prince Phillip not Charles and Diana. There was not even a picture of his parents or sisters. Where was the information about all his charities that he spent so much time and effort on? Also, Ingrid said their wedding was televised but that is not correct, it was filmed and shown in movie theaters. It was two years after the end of the war so most people could not afford a TV set. It wasn't until the coronation in 1953 that people were getting TV sets as they were so happy to watch the coronation. Having it on TV was Prince Phillip's idea and it met with a lot of disapproval but of course was a triumph. His memory deserves much more than he was allowed in this show.
Indeed! In fact, his mother, Princess Alice of Battenberg, was an extraordinary, outstanding woman. She is considered almost a saint by many in Greece just for her charity work and for risking her life to protect Jews from German Nazi arrest. She was the grand-mother of whom King Charles III can be truly proud!
But she was ignored or played down by the Windsor family who found her eccentricities and her hearing impairment embarrassing. The Queen's mother, on the other hand, was an ego-centric, over-spending alcoholic and was loved and exalted as the dear "Queen Mum".
That Prince Phillip tolerated all of this for so long is nothing short of heroic!
@@theon9575 I too have such admiration for his mother and her work during WWII but this mess of a show showed her no respect at all. Prince Phillip did so much for the family and country and from all the books I've read he wasn't given much credit by a lot of the family, especially the Queen Mother. I always wondered if she was jealous as Phillip's blood was much bluer than anyone else's in the family, especially hers.
@@mrs.herculepoirot7763 Thank you for your reply. Princess Alice is a hero, to my mind.
Who was it said, "Blessed are the meek, for they shall be exalted in the Kingdom of Heaven"?
Princess Alice was the epitome of meek in a way that embarrassed her son's family, their earthly chests so swelled with false pride & vanity (apologies to Gilbert and Sullivan.).
Blue blood? When I was a kid at school in Australia, Prince Phillip was always just laughed off as "Phil the Greek", and he had to drop his title of Prince of Greece when he married. By people with no knowledge of the origins of the Greek Royal family, it seemed. And the poor man had the mother-in-law from Hell, surely? (I don't think the Bowes-Lyons were actually 'blue blood' at all, were they? They were nobles or landed gentry, not 'blue blood').
It’s an American made documentary so what did you expect?? 🙄
@@JGJGAGSG Objectivity - that's what LOL! Whether it's made in America or Timbuktu, just like @mrs.poirot, I expect a documentary biography on Prince Phillip to focus on Prince Phillip etc.. and that's not totally beyond Americans. 😂
There are plenty of American movies, music, literature, books, doco's, awesome science & technology, etc which show that Americans are completely capable of high quality, objective and balanced stuff too. It's not all Hollywood. But, as in the UK, there is also plenty shite (like the UK press and television, too). The worst of American reporting is owned by an Australian, anyway, the same one who also produces the worst in the UK. So it's what I expect from that Australian.👎pure💩.
I think you let the American producers of this vid off too lightly. I'm definitely NOT pro-American, just like you. But even if they are American, I still expected a biography to be a fair report of facts of Prince Phillip's life, and this wasn't. Being American is no excuse 😂.
Prince Philip is a great man. The man behind the throne. RIP❤
PRINCE PHILIP.....
COULD JOKE.....
HE COULD BE SELF
DEFACING.......
HE WAS HUMAN..
UNLIKE THESE
MIND-NUMMING
BASTERS, WHO
WOULD BORE
CONCRETE!!!!!!!!!!
“Duke of Edinberg”! Gawd, ya gotta laugh, not even the commentators of a documentary can get the pronunciation of Edinburgh correct.
Indeed. Put me off watching the thing!
I stopped taking this documentary seriously when I heard that. 🤢🤮
He was gorgeous…..and the best man for the job undoubtedly……..
You know some humans like to put down Prince Philip, saying he cheated on the Queen, but images and videos of him helping her with her coat at 10:49 or looking at her with adoration in his eyes … just screams to me that he was loyal. I'm reading three of his autobiographies and none of them say he cheated. He flirted, but that's as far as it went. Sure they had their ups and downs like any marriage, and the strain it must have taken on them both mentally, physically and emotionally must have been horrendous, but is it possible that Prince Philip was a good man, to his wife????
Prince Edward - the only son he can be proud of ❤
Philip was / is my favorite Royal. They just don't make them like that anymore. 😞
Just an opinion , but.........I think Prince Philip wanted his son , Charles up in Scotland so that he'd be away from London and away from all the simpering ''suits '' . Prince Philip wanted him to become his own man and I think his intention was warranted . Charles did learn to form his own ideas and embrace them . Prince Philip was himself ''his own man '' as much as was possible for him as he supported his wife , The Queen .
I stopped watching when I heard Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth...Americans!
A REMARKABLE SOUL, QUEEN
ELIZABETH CHIOSE WISELY
A remarkable man. Way ahead of his time
Prince Philip was a JEWEL of the Monarchy. What a life he lived!
His Mother too.
A beautiful and respected figure we will miss forever.
The enigma is that Royalty TV could take a fascinating story about Prince Philip and then forget who the story was about, and make it so disjointed that it was hard to follow unless you already knew the story. Horrible editing. I stopped half way through.
Please enjoy the doughnut. Never mind the hole in the centre.
This editing is terrible. They have Charles being born twice. Once before Elizabeth was Queen, and then he was also the second son, after she was Queen...no mention of Ann. Geez....the time line is forward, backward and sideways!
You’re taken my career from me. You’re taken my home. You’re taken my name. I thought we were in this together
Being in the royasl family is not a popularity contest ! Well said Sir.
He was personality plus.
Turned me off when I heard the commentator say Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth………get it right !!
at 08:10 it shows the then King Edward VIII reviewing the Honor Guard. Long before Philip/Elizabeth II were even thought of as future Queen Elizabeth II and her Consort.
He was a crotchedy old fart but he was good to the Queen, and had a long lasting marriage.
i honestly wish people fact checked or even learn pronunciation of locations "Edinburgh" was said so horribly incorrect my skin crawled
Prince Philip 💜💪🏽
her magesty not her royal highness and its Edinburgh not Edinburg
World danger in,thea,world org,teep danger
AKing all but named.
Meghan might learn from Prince Philip - he entered the royal family as an outsider and spent over 70 years walking two steps behind his wife as she was Queen. Meghan should remember her position to walk two steps behind Harry, who is a Royal Prince of the Blood, as she is considered a commoner. Catherine is a Commoner like Meghan & consistently walks behind William, the Heir Apparent. Philip's enduring legacy will always be his lifelong dedication to "Duty, Service & Country." What is Meghan's - whining, complaining, trading on her marriage & the RF.
And he had an actual carreer
Well a grift is a grift l suppose, it’s all the same to a manipulative narcissist 🤷♀️
She was raised in the US so she doesn't understand that the royals doesn't change unless it has to!!
Megan had her own career and now she is the mother of 2 and all the charity work she does so stop being rude to her!!
@@rhondastover6697 mediocre b-list actress is not a career
Gor,teep in,thea,world danger
God bless you all family ❤

Prince Philip was a hard ass and should have allowed Prince Charles to attend Eaton the proper school for a Royal...
What do you mean by proper school for a royal? Usually royals of all houses were home schooled n then joined the forces at some point... Yes Eton might have been a better match for Charles in education but for his character not his status
Hind sight is always 20/20. He chose the school that worked best for him. Charles chose the school he wanted best. Truth, Charles probably would have been bullied in Eton too. His issues was, people knew who he was
@@gejostyes probably and just for that reason 😢 still Gordonston s with it's given focus on the outdoor activities n general focus would have been harder on Charles
The school is Eton, not Eaton, which is my surname. I get so fed up with people spelling my surname as Eton.
@@ynys_mon6928 I feel you. Corrected my auto corrected post accordingly. The school n the famous house in London seem to confuse autocorrection intelligence. Having been to both locations I know the difference. Not to mention my family name by birth has been misspelled and mispronounced by fellow country members as well as foreigners and sadly same goes for my family name by marriage... however on the later I can pull off pranks to anyone mimicking a french accent telling them it's Greek, actually
Why are Americans unable to differentiate between Her Majesty and Her Royal Highness. Sloppy journalism and ffs Its Edinburgh not Edinberg!
They don’t have any royalty in America.
Duke of Edinbrrroooorg? When on earth is that?
Bad journalism!
traitor
His numerous affairs are a large negative for me.
What affairs? There were only rumors. But that's typical when you have a good looking, "man's man" like he was.
Says who? 🤔 if you can’t prove it, it’s libel.
Oh my.
Might want to dig into some history.
Me too, what a wimp of a man!
I think Prince Philip was jealous of his own son because he knew that one day he would be King and he could never be a king although he was married to the Queen...
I believe the same thing.
I disagree, in my opinion it's been simply two very different characters, Charles n his father. Charles seeming to take more after his maternal grandfather than after his father, his own mother took more after her father.
Sure, he was soooooo excited about cutting ribbons, following protocols and having even less time and freedom to avoid doing as he pleased.
Are you kidding? Why would he be jealous of *anyone* Phillip was an Adonis, a talk, very good looking guy. He wasn't the son of a king so he would never have been a king in Greece..Why would he want to be king and have all the pressure and headaches that come with it. Phillip was a man's man, athletic, intelligent, he could do anything he wanted. He wasn't jealous of anyone. Other men wanted to be him, so, no, he wasn't jealous of Charles. That's so ridiculous.
@@usagi18 If he were king, he'd be doing the same thing, but he'd have all the pressure and stress that went with it. Phillip forged his own way and had a happy life. He knew what he was getting into. Every job takes up time and you have limited amounts of time to do what you want. It's not like he had his own money and could just live an idle life. Phillip became a pilot, he played Polo, he would hunt and fish, he did a lot of things. Also, as a member of the RF, he took a lot of vacations all over the world, most of them aboard the Royal Yacht, Britannia, a ship that *he* helped design BTW.
But what's with all this hate on Prince Phillip?
He was also quite a rude man,but they won't tell you that would they?
Prince Philip always reminds me of my own maternal grandfather😁。。。I believe he deeply loved and had very, maybe too high expectations for his sons, especially Prince Charles, the heir, and his first Child, like all father and son relationships. The general social recognition value across geography, race, and times seems never changed: man is expected to show strength, power, support, and even sacrifice for the whole family in any situation, hence father always expects their son can be as strong as possible to carry on the whole family duty and responsibility one day, no mention the heir of the royal family, beyond the family, there are the weights of the crown and the future of the monarchy. The more love, the more strict to son😁. I believe King Charles understood and was grateful for his father more when his two sons grew up and brought their unexpected surprises. The traditional gender role also has its fairness: position and respect always come with duty and weight, even for the by-born privilege.
He is a king, a king without a title.
