Episode One: The Tape

In 1989, somewhere in the English countryside, an amateur radio enthusiast stumbled across a private telephone conversation. The call, between the then Prince Charles and his secret lover, Camilla Parker Bowles, was recorded. Its illicit content – once revealed - would change the future of the Royal Family. In the first episode of this three-part series, Kay Burley takes us back to the start of Camilla’s story, as we explore her early years and first meetings with the future King Charles. The episode includes a reconstruction, voiced by actors, of some of the now infamous "Camillagate" tapes.
