Screen Portrays Dukes Life - The Cadet One of the few pictures taken of Prince

Screen Portrays Dukes Life - The Cadet
One of the few pictures taken of Prince Philip as a cadet at Dartmouth. In the foreground are the late King George VI, the Queen Mother and to the left (out of picture) the present Queen. This visit of the King and Queen to Dartmouth in 1939 was probably the first meeting between Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip. This picture is a scene from the film " Prince Philip", a screen biography of the Duke which will be shown in London today for the first time. Veteran producer Howard Thomas who made the Coronation film " Elizabeth is Queen", spent a year sorting through thousands of feet of film touching on the Dukes activities. The half-hour documentary opens with the Royal Wedding of 1947, goes back to the Dukes schooldays and ends with the Coronation.
25th September 1953

EDITORS COMMENTS
This rare print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing Prince Philip as a young cadet at Dartmouth. Taken during the visit of King George VI and Queen Mother to Dartmouth in 1939, this image is believed to capture the first meeting between Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip. The photograph also features the late King George VI and the present Queen, who stands just out of frame on the left. The picture is part of the film "Prince Philip" a screen biography produced by veteran producer Howard Thomas. After meticulously sifting through countless hours of footage documenting various aspects of the Duke's life, Thomas crafted a half-hour documentary that takes viewers on an extraordinary journey. Starting with Prince Philip's school days, it culminates with his grand Coronation ceremony. Today marks an important milestone as this film premieres in London for the very first time. It provides audiences with unique insights into Prince Philip's remarkable life and achievements. This particular scene from "Prince Philip" showcases his early years as a cadet, highlighting his dedication to duty even from a young age. As we celebrate Queen Elizabeth II's Jubilee year in 2002, let us reflect on this poignant photograph that symbolizes not only her enduring relationship with Prince Philip but also their shared commitment to serving their country and its people throughout their lives.
