29: 05 It is the ordinary daily load which, in a way, can take more out of you than a crisis. Because, in a crisis the adrenalin flows, and the test is whether you can take the ordinary daily responsibility. Interesting, but this certainly is a very soft interview. I suppose that was the format, certainly not journalism. just chat. Which has it's place in history, too.

I remember watching this interview when it was first aired and believe me, it was a revelation seeing the humane side of a woman who had dominated not only British Politics, but had the respect of every world leader for her belief in democracy and sound economic control. Miriam Stoppard conducts this interview with aplomb. Every question and answer a revelation

I really feel its time as a nation we sat down and viewed the consequences of this womans reign and ofset them over what she did right. I think history has been overly kind to this lady and many of the truths have been lost or even replaced with lies.
As one of the first generation worse off than before i feel she has a lot to answer for

Notice how the interviewer changes the subject following an emotional moment Margret recalls. That was courteous. Nowadays the interview would push to try and break the subject. Which is cruel. Today's broadcasters _are_ cruel. And then they virtue signal. So insincere. Mrs Thatcher was a sincere woman, and yes, full of integrity.

They say she was cold and unfeeling; I don't find that to be the case at all. She was quite warm, smiling, charming, and she mostly let people finish speaking before responding, quite polite. I would say she was quite diplomatic, especially compared to politicians today. She stuck to her values, that is a good thing I would think.

Love her or hate her policies - after our modern double speaking traitorous career 'politicians' were begging for her to come back! This is an example of a great woman and leader not obsessed with outdoing men but doing what she feels is right. Never spend outside your means she says. Does anyone know what that means nowadays?

What a strange person she seems to be compared to women in politics now. So guarded and false, she said Dead Lucky at one point and that was the only utterance that she made that sounded remotely natural to me. Clearly an odd relationship with mummy and daddy. Did she say her dad was thrown off the council?

Funny how in this interview one can see that she actually did have a sense of humor, since nowadays everyone says that she didnt smile and didnt tell jokes. Say what you want about Thatcher, her politics were divisive but she was a remarkable person, very bright and determined.

I find the late Mrs T absolutely fascinating! She wasn't a monster, I hate the way some describe her legacy, she wasn't everyone's cup of tea but she is fresh air compared to today's mp's. Miriam a very good interviewer here I think, very good. The BBC could take a lot of notes.

Notice how Thatcher's mother only played a traditional supporting role as housewife and supporting spouse. Her father was the great influence and while i'm sure Thatcher loved and respected her mother, she was determined not to be the woman her mother had become

Extremely strong leader, I didnt agree with her politics but as a female I was so proud that we had a strong woman leader. Its strange that all the great British women leaders were red heads, queen of the Britains boudicca, Elizabeth 1st, and Margaret Thatcher.

Just watching this can't you all see that she loves her country? I will never see eye to eye with the amount of hate this magnificent woman gets. The 21st century is need of more woman like this(cough Theresa May cough. Very intelligent.

14: 24 Thatcher's description of her father's deposition from Grantham Council by its first Labour majority is notable for being the only time she cried on television (the other time was when her son went missing in the desert.

I paused this video just to say how much sense of awe and marvel I felt when listening to Margaret. What a remarkable lady, with so much charm, intelligence, integrity and beauty. Oh, how I wish we had more women like her.

I was brought up in the 1980s and now, many years later, reflect how huge an influence Thatcher was to me. Yes, she had many faults, but she made poor Theresa May look quite a quivering wreck. An absolute one-off.

14: 31 Her father was clearly a huge influence. I've been watching her interviews for some months now and it's clear she thought the world of him. It's actually moving to hear her reminisce about him.

I do not agree with everything she did or stood for but i think she was a marverlous woman. She stood by her principles. This doesnt happen very often in politics there days. A very heart felt interview
