The SBS Dateline television program investigates the cult of Britain’s Prince Philip. Their video report comes with this printed introduction:
As far as most of the world is concerned, Prince Philip was born in Greece and went on to become Queen Elizabeth’s husband, but to the people of Tanna in the South Pacific nation of Vanuatu, it’s a different story. They revere him as the human form of an ancestral spirit from the island, who, according to a prophecy, emerged from a volcano and travelled overseas to marry a queen. The Prince Philip Movement probably started after the royal couple visited in 1974 and has been fuelled by gifts of photos sent by Philip.
