Spare

In March 2011, Prince Harry begins his trek to the North Pole. On the first day, he suffers mild frostbite. On the fourth day, he must leave the group to return to England for Prince William’s wedding. The night before the wedding, Prince Harry, Prince William, and Prince Charles dine together at Clarence House. William’s best men, James and Thomas, are also present. The public believes that Harry is the best man, but Prince William has asked him to compere instead. Crowds gather outside, and Harry goes outside with Prince William to speak with them. Harry reflects that Prince William’s marriage will create distance between them.

Harry receives a call from the veteran soldiers when they reach the North Pole. Still suffering the effects of a frost-nipped penis, he sees a specialist on Harley Street. The doctor reassures Harry that time will heal the condition.

Harry begins dating Florence Brudenell-Bruce. After several happy weeks, the press hounds Florence, and she ends the relationship.

On Bodmin Moor, Harry and a group of soldiers undertake an “Escape and Evasion” exercise. When they’re captured, Harry and the other men are blindfolded, told to strip naked, and must submit to illegal interrogation techniques. Harry doesn’t respond when one of the interrogators claims that Princess Diana was pregnant with a Muslim baby when she died.
