Speechless to Unforgettable: The Journey of King George VI | Royal Documentary | Documentary Central

- King's Speech is the definitive story of the man who overcame his own failings for the sake of his nation. When his older brother, Edward VIII abdicates the throne to marry Wallis Simpson, nervous-mannered successor George "Bertie" VI is plagued with shyness and a speech impediment when speaking to his subjects. It is the true story of an introvert and humble man whom events and circumstances made him become an inspiration for the British nation during their war with Hitler's Germany.

The pauses actually enhanced the grandeur of his speech. I admire him greatly. He was a true leader.
I absolutely loved King George VI's reign. He was so much better in his duty to the crown, to his responsibility to his children and his wife, Queen Elizabeth than he was with his brother who was supposed to be King. I thought his brother was a brat and spoiled beyond anything resembling a King. King George VI was such a handsome man as well. He was such a better man, even though it was difficult for him because his brother, who was supposed to be King, abdicated because he was in love with his American lover, then his wife, Mrs. Simpson. I felt it was such a good plan for him, but I realized it was hard for him. His smoking ruined his health, dying at such a young age in his 50s. I adored his dedication to his job, his family and his responsibilities. Queen E2 had a wonderful father and mother to show her the way of the responsibilities necessary to be an incredible Queen. ❤
And what a job his daughter did ❤there will never be another person who gave 70 years + of service 😊
I DEFINITELY AGREE.
"The King's Speech" is one of my favorite movies!! Admired both the King and Lionel Logue.
Very moving documentary. Mrs. Simpson certainly did the world a favor by extracting Edward and making George king. Terrible thing for him, but he surely saved Britain and the world.
Kings don't really govern so I doubt it was a world changing thing.
don't speak for the world. England was, is and will always be a tumor to the world
I have great appreciation of him as an American from the Great Magestic State of Michigan. I greatly appreciate the Alliance we Forged in the Hell of World War Two. God Save The King.
I totally admire king George, he was thrown in the deep end. However, he did a tremendous job as King. I do have a soft spot for King George the 6th. He was a very strong man who was also humble and loved his people.
I AGREE WHOLEHEARTEDLY. HE WAS A WONDERFUL HUMAN BEING, FATHER, HUSBAND AND KING.
I WILL ALSO SAY RESPECTFULLY THAT HE WAS THE MOST HANDSOME KING IN THAT LINEAGE; A VERY GOOD LOOKING MAN. HIS DAUGHTER, THE LATE QUEEN ELIZABETH II - WAS THE SPITTING IMAGEOF HER FATHER. SHE LOOKED JUST LIKE HIM💖
@@valerieneal2747 Perhaps his daughter Princess Margaret even more so.
He truely was a very brave and humble man!
I hope King George VI is burning in Hell with Charlemagne, King Henry I, King John I, King Henry III, King Edward I, Margaret Beaufort, King Henry VII, King Henry VIII, Marie de Medici, King Louis XIV, Prince Edward, Duke of Kent and Strathearn, Queen Victoria, King Edward VII, King George V, King Edward VIII, and Prince Philip. 🎭🩰🎨
I often get a look of King George VI in Prince Edward, duke of Edinburgh , King George VI was a fine King and a fine man, what courage and commitment, the line has been blessed for well over a hundred years , the late Queen Elizabeth was the exemplar of Kingship and she emulated her father , God save the King .
Eh, I don't see any resemblance between him and Prince Edward.
Yes, yes, there is a whiff of King George VI in Prince Edward.
@@kashfiaislam9995That’s pretty intense. I wouldn’t wish that kind of ending on anyone, if I thought for a minute hell was real.

'Well done, good and faithful servant.'" We will not forget 🌺.
🙏💙
A reluctant king and reluctant bride turned out to be a dynamic couple. A king who set an example in times of great danger and hardship supported by a savvy queen. Quite a dynasty that provided the country with an unforgettable queen. ~RIP Queen Elizabeth II~
Although most of the information in this documentary are common knowledge, it was presented very well. Thank you for posting.
He seemed like a very good and caring person. A good king and father and husband.
YES, HE WAS; WHICH WAS WHY THAT LOSS WAS FELT SO DEEPLY BY THE BRITISH BECAUSE THEY KNEW THERE WOULD NEVER BE ANOTHER KING SUCH AS HE.
So touching, what a truly wonderful person, dealt with one might say a wonderful and privileged hand. Privileged maybe, but all the mental torture he went thru in his early life. With all that he would grow up and marry the simply wonderfully cheerful Lady Bowes-Lyon, and what would follow would be one of the greatest tragedies the world would know for a second time. This time he would be the King during the 'Blitz', and God Bless him for being with his people. With the war over, no matter the bread lines people loved their King. So much more about this man that amazes one that a man no matter his personal and public issues he stood fast for his people.
This King was amazing human being the best King in the world#1
he deserves another film about him
YES, HE DOES. KING GEORGE VI WAS ONE OF A KIND.
I hope King George VI is burning in Hell with Charlemagne, King Henry I, King John I, King Henry III, King Edward I, Margaret Beaufort, King Henry VII, King Henry VIII, Marie de Medici, King Louis XIV, Prince Edward, Duke of Kent and Strathearn, Queen Victoria, King Edward VII, King George V, King Edward VIII, and Prince Philip. 🎭🩰🎨

As the younger son who was originally not meant to be King, he was likely ignored by everyone, including his parents, for the accommodation of his older brother. This likely led to a loss of self-esteem of which his stammering was a symptom. Yet he overcame both the obstacles and the odds to guide his nation through the horrors of World War Two.
I couldn't have said it better myself. 😊👍
As a young boy, he was treated very badly. One of the 'nannies' who was supposed to be looking after him was extremely spiteful towards him, his brother mocked his stammer mercilessly and when he saw his father, the King was often in a very bad temper, shouting and scolding him for no particular reason. It was only much later on towards the end of his reign, that the King spoke to his second son in a more normal way. The King had many rows with his eldest son. He famously predicted that the Duke of Windsor (as he subsequently became) wouldn't last a year as King and that he would have much preferred that the younger of the two brothers reign, which of course is what happened. The Duke of Windsor also said that Queen Mary became almost a different person towards her children, when the King wasn't there.
wow, i had the same thought but didn’t know what to type. well said!
@@franc9111that’s so sad 😢 i’m surprised he didn’t end up resenting the world, instead he was such a kind person.
I'm sorry but in my opinion Bertie (George VI) was far better looking then David (Edward VIII) who to me always looked like a boy until his forties then looked like a short, skinny old man. George VI stood tall, and broad shoulders and a smile that reached his eyes. Edward VIII smiled all the time, but it was cold and phony. King George VI made his parents, grandparents and great grand parents proud. He took on the job he was never trained for but with his loving wife at his side. He took it on and showed his people and the world what a true Monarch was. May he rest in peace.
I always think the same about the Duke of Windsor - he looked boyish but then abruptly changed to looking old and wrinkled likely due to all the smoking.
i think so too!
@@gb9612 early photos of Duchess of Windsor show a lovely young woman - have often wondered why Wallis lost that - perhaps equal parts smoking and bitterness
Yes smoking is a sure fire way to age yourself rapidly, everything goes downhill from there, teeth, skin… is a shame. I always thought she looked quite plain but some nicer photos when she was younger I agree
To think they've all come and gone: the King and Queen, and their Pride and Joy.
Just like that: no more!
But their legacy remains forever etched!
A beautiful soul of a man. ❤
Correction: it was the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha before George V changed it to Windsor in 1917 - not Saxe-Gothenburg- Gotha.
Ironically, the Royal Family is more German than anything else.
I laughed heartily when he said Gothenburg! Gothenburg is a large naval city in Sweden, it doesn’t even have a duchy.
Very funny!
With us, children of Elizabethan age, we rarely know him. But I'm glad that there are many films, series and documentaries about him. He devoted himself for the country a lot. And he was a sample of his daughter and the latter generation of the monarch.
Now we know how the late queen learn from, from the great man, her father.
Well done, very dignified and with true honor. thank you for uploading this video.
Noël Coward (i think he was a playwrite) said that a statue should be erected to Mrs. Simpson on every village green in the land, because in extracting Edward she had saved the nation from disaster
I think Mr. Coward may have been correct. Edward VIII made no secret of his distaste for royal duties. In his brief time as king he neglected his duties constantly, often deputizing his brother Bertie to attend the "boring" events that were his job. He left the red boxes strewn about to where anyone could see them. They were lucky they didn't have a spy in their household, because otherwise any number of secrets would have been delivered to the enemy. And we're not even touching the fact that he was a Nazi sympathizer. As Prince of Wales Edward, or David, was handsome, charming, and very popular. But popularity has nothing to do with being a man of integrity who would do his duty and protect his country. Indeed, Mrs. Simpson did a great service to the UK. Three cheers for Mrs. Simpson!
YES, NOEL COWARD WAS A GREAT PLAYWRIGHT, AND HIS WIT WAS UNMATCHED.
THE REMARK HE MADE ABOUT WALLIS SIMPSON WAS SPOT ON🤣🤣 !
😂
I have seen some great movies: Lawrence of Arabia. With Peter O Toole, Omar Sharif, The Great escape, Operation crossbow, vonRyan s express, Exodus, The Kings speech, wonderful. Peace.
Wonderful tribute!
In watching this I see that Prince Edward looks just like his grandfather the older he gets the more you see it. And the comment made about men wearing black ties and women wearing some kind of mourning clothes. Shows a mark of respect. Not for what the people were wearing when the Queen died last year.
And in listening to the speeches if you didn't know he had a stammer you would just think he was pausing for effect.
@karenkratzer7
I think she looks like her grandma Mary of Tech
Queen E 2 really looks like her paternal grandmother, Mary of Teck. So much
Also like her paternal aunt, Princess Mary the Princess Royal.
QUEEN ELIZABETH II WAS THE MIRROR IMAGE OF HER FATHER..SHE LOOKED JUST LIKE HIM.
I also think Queen Elizabeth looked a lot like her father King George..
I noticed that Queen Elizabeth voice was very much like her mother s
He was a great king and a real man who had the job dumped on him. Worth more than 20 Edward 8ths.
That was wonderful. Thank you.
QUEEN ELIZABETH II WAS THE SPITTING IMAGE OF HER FATHER.

Ok, strike that. This has developed into a terrific docu!
Great title.
Good evening everyone
He also had a severe temper mostly out of anxiety
and frustration at not being able to get his words out.
With stammering he could call for a national day of prayer which helped soldiers to be evacuated from Dunkirk whereas Hitler with his oratory skills caused untold damages to entire world. Any day a good human being with stammering is better than oratory skills in the hands of a inhuman being.
💙🙏
2:16: 'Saxe-GOTHENBURG and Gotha'? Excuse me?
Thank you!
I am struggling to cite this video in APA formatting, anyone got an idea
Charles III looks like George VI, he is very Windsor!
CHARLES DOES NOT IN ANY WAY LOOK LIKE KING GEORGE VI.
KING GEORGE VI WAS A VERY STATELY, INTELLIGENT, HANSDOME MAN.
CHARLES??🤣🤣

Not Gottenerg but Gotha!!!!!!
He looks and speaks a lot like King Charles
Prince Edward
@@Faithful514 him too
More like Prince Edward, who is also shy, dutiful, and a devoted family man.
@@zanmei7261 his voice sounds more like Charles though
NOT BY A COUNTRY MILE. KING GEORGE VI WAS HANDSOME.
CHARLES...UM..NO.
Not my fav interviews on this topic
Can't understand why they did t to be king look at all the places and people you meet? I would think the brothers would fight over that position
Saxe Coburg Gotha not Saxe Guttenberg
Did he say Sax Gothenburg and Gotha at 2.17?😂

Looking at this documentary, I thought both brothers were good looking.
I thought Edward always had a grimace on his face as though he was never happy. I don't think he was at all. Pampered by the family, Edward remained in my honest opinion, a joke of a man, never quite knowing himself well enough and always needed Mrs Simpson one way or another even though she really did not love him as much as everyone thought. He was too needy and Simpson knew it.
Invece di tante(troppe) chiacchiere sarebbe più utile lasciar parlare le immagini.
