King Charles said he wants to improve the planet before he dies – after revealing he was ‘haunted’ by the criticism he faced over an interview in which he claimed he talked to plants.
In the new 90-minute film, made in collaboration with his charity The King’s Foundation for Amazon MGM Studios, the monarch said the situation is ‘rapidly going backwards’ – with mankind ‘actually destroying our means to survival’.
But he expressed his hope that ‘by the time I shuffle off this mortal coil’ there might be more awareness of the ‘need to bring things back together again’.
In the film, Charles can be seen collecting eggs from chickens at the ‘Cluckingham Palace’ coop on his Highgrove estate, as he reveals his love of a crispy baked potato – declaring ‘red Duke of Yorks’ are the best variety.

Actress Kate, who narrates the film, also recounts how Charles was ‘haunted’ by the criticism he faced after he said in a 1986 television interview that he talked to plants.
The documentary describes how the King, as the Prince of Wales, emerged as a key figure on the environment over the years, making regular keynote speeches, despite ‘cries from some that he should take a back seat’, Kate said.
The monarch, in new footage, added: ‘I just felt this was the approach that I was going to stick to. A course I set and I wasn’t going to be diverted from.’
After an academic commented that the world is not on the ‘trajectory’ needed to limit the worst effects of climate change, Charles remarked: ‘It’s rapidly going backwards, I’ve said that for the last 40 years, but anyway, there we are… I can only do what I can do, which is not very much – anyway.
‘People don’t seem to understand it’s not just climate that’s the problem, it’s also biodiversity loss, so we’re actually destroying our means of survival, all the time.
‘To put that back together again is possible, but we should have been doing it long ago. We’ve got to do it as fast as we can now.’

He added: ‘Maybe, by the time I shuffle off this mortal coil, there might be a little more awareness… of the need to bring things back together again.’
Kate said: ‘While explaining his passion for organic gardening to the press, Prince Charles made a comment that has haunted him ever since.’
Archive footage of him describing how he talks to plants is included in the film.
Ian Skelly, co-author of the King’s 2010 Harmony book, said: ‘Those criticisms really upset him. He got treated very unfairly, seen very unfairly, and those of us that knew him better were quite upset by that.
‘It was difficult to know how to respond, but I really felt for him.’
Charles said in 1986: ‘I just come and talk to the plants, really – very important to talk to them, they respond.’
