Finally, the Prince of Wales concludes: “We were lucky to have him for nearly 100 years.”

The documentary will also see Philip and the Queen‘s other children – Prince Andrew, Princess Anne and Prince Edward – feature.

It’s believed Harry and William’s cousins Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice will also be in the doc as well as Peter Phillips.

To make the programme even more personal, the Queen has given the BBC access to her private film collection.

The BBC said: “Prince Philip: The Royal Family Remembers will feature poignant recollections…

“…plenty of humour and numerous fresh insights into the character and legacy of this royal pioneer.

“With special access to the Queen’s private cine-film collection, this film is an unrivalled portrait of a man with a unique place in royal history – by those who knew him best.”

However, Her Majesty will not feature in the documentary.
