There's this website called mediahhh.com that allows you to watch UK tv. I downloaded the app and now I'll be able to watch the doc this afternoon.

I personally think the royals deliberately try to tone down the poshness of their accents, they aim for a kind of Estuary English but I don't think that's how they speak privately.
I don't think that Kate does that so she can sound a bit more upper crust than some of the royals.
To be honest I got cracks in my fillings seeing the one laudatio to the other dripping from sugarsweet fondant. Yes, she is the Most Wonderful, Most Adorable, Most Righteous of us all. I had to look to the corner to see the logo, that I was not watching the birthday-program of Kim Jong-Il by accident.
I missed some balance. The turmoil her nation is in, the threats from all sides, the royal family in a fast-changing world and media-landscape. The tragedies (Bloody Sunday, Hillsborough, the Herald of Free Enterprise, the London Bombings, the death of Diana). Nothing. Only roses and moonshine. Only cherubins and seraphins on little pinky clouds singing the praise of Elizabeth The Magnificent.... The Holy Virgin almost looked pale next to her, if you heard the litany of praises. Good heavens!
Watch it now before youtube/ITV removes it.

'It's good to be Queen!' Heart-warming moment viewers spot humorous cushion in Her Majesty's living room at Balmoral during documentary marking her 90th birthday
It was a landmark television documentary that offered a glimpse of the Queen as the world seldom sees her.
And eagle-eyed viewers were quick to pick up on just one of the heart-warming moments, spotting a humorous cushion in Her Majesty's living room at Balmoral which read: 'It's good to be Queen!'
Her regal charm was also evident in a scene at Sandringham stables, laughing at how one of her 'prima donna' ponies repeatedly spat out a carrot.
The documentary Our Queen At 90 - marking Elizabeth II's birthday - was a hit with viewers, with many taking to Twitter to share their favourite moments.
