Default Video doc/interview on Constantine

I came across an interesting two-part video documentary about King Constantine on YouTube today that includes some fairly extensive on-camera interviews with him and a lot of archival footage of his life. (Apparently, it was produced by al-Jazeera's English-speaking network in April 2007.)

Constantine goes into a lot of detail about the events surrounding his ouster, and presents his perspective on the actions of subsequent Greek governments toward him.

Here's the link to Part I:
King Without a Country - 20 Apr 07 - Part 1

Here's the link to Part II:
King Without a Country - 20 Apr 07 - Part 2

(My apologies if this has already been posted and discussed -- I couldn't find it on the boards anywhere, so I thought I'd go ahead and post it.)

Hello everyone, I just managed to watch the show on TV4 anytime, and it's...wow ! Many private pics, the interview is great. I think MC comes out as really nicer than anything that can appear in mags (although as you may have noticed I am a big fan of the GRF). MC talks a lot about her respect for her family and in-laws, about how she focuses on her children, and how one of her goals in life is to be an example for others (especially her children) of how to behave in life.
Lots of pictures from the wedding : The wedding gown seen in movement is much nicer than on static photos. There is also a scene I liked when QAM kisses MC after the (civilian ?) wedding and then kisses her again, and it seems to me AM is beginning to have wet eyes. Lovely lovely scene.
Now, how to watch it ? Well, I tried to guess what it said, some words looked a bit like english so I typed a login and password, then my e-mail adress, then there were the details about the payment card...check your currency to be sure you are OK with the price ! It's 49 kronen for one month watching. As for myself I found it was worth every cent of euro (I think I'm going to watch it every day for one month ! not really possible in my timetable though...).
Another important info : I was worried all the show would be in swedish ; in fact there are commentaries in swedish but all interviews are kept in english so you can hear the real voice of MC and the children, and even K Constantine. Bliss ! I hope some posters will have access to it now ... Friendly yours...

Sita, I am so glad to hear about this show! I was trying to watch it, but I couldn't figure out the screen where you subscribe to the channel. I will try again. What did her voice sound like? Did she sound American or British? I am so curious to hear what she sounds like. I would also love to see the wedding video.

I knew you'd be interested sgl ! Just try to write a login, a password and then your e-mail address, then the blue card details (check if you're OK with the price, I don't want anyone to get into trouble !). MC's voice sounds more American than British as far as I can judge (hum, you should hear my French accent), I find her voice soft and pleasant to hear (better than in one video I posted about one year ago, but then she was speaking loud because there was a crowd). Tell us what you think when you see the show !
