A documentary programme telling the real story of Prince Philip; from war hero to the rock at the Queen’s side - through good times and bad. The programme will explore how Philip dealt with giving up his promising naval career and even his name, Mountbatten, as he took a back seat to his monarch wife. 

Royal experts give us their insight into how the Duke of Edinburgh moulded the role of consort into an invaluable position, that prompted the Queen to say "he has, quite simply, been my strength and stay all these years, and I, and his whole family, and this and many other countries, owe him a debt greater than he would ever claim, or we shall ever know." 

From his charity patronages, to founding the Duke of Edinburgh award and becoming an unlikely champion of environmental issues, Prince Philip's life as Britain's longest serving Royal consort has been a significant one for the entire nation.
