Qaa

Cockney Flower Girls being taken in by speech therapists and the girls' fathers becoming victims of middle class morality left and right.

And the unbearable poverness and injustice either!

Yes, you're so right. It extended into the first 3 years of H. M. King George V's reign, but once the Great War started it all ended.

​@@gennarojg3no it didn't, that's pure bs. The moment king Edward 7th died, that was technically and officially the end of the edwardian period.

​​@@petebennett3733 He means the culture of the era. Not by technical terms.

Yeah..! He was a human. Just like you and me..!

Same

He knew how to have fun. Lol

right you are!

@johngore7744 Modt young people do in that position I would imagine. However I think he was loyal as can be. In my opinion.

Edward had charisma. Charles has anti charisma.

@@canalesworks1247 Edward was interesting. Charles is boring.

I’ve heard way better narrators before. Personally I wasn’t impressed.

ITA. Has a gift for guiding us along without drinking.

Read droning for drinking LOL!

Thanks for your interesting anecdotes. It humanizes the King

@Judy, I really enjoyed hearing your family members experiences with British royals. Thank you!

Respect which king?

Most interesting, and the narrator is an excellent speaker.

​@@claudesantolini6335Edward VII of course, which the video clearly informs about. Lol

За что можно "уважать" масона, фактически, служители сатаны?

Not me.

he was a real persson not just a historical person

I agree with you Sugar. Edward VII was something of a sybarite, but he was also intelligent and he never shirked his duty to his kingdom.

Hello, My Grandfather regularly encountered The King when on his way to his place of work. The King enjoyed his morning carriage drive through London. My Grandfather described the King as a genial and friendly character, who would doff his hat to the working class people. My Grandfather was born in 1889. Good to be in touch........ Valerie.

Id argue he set the stage for WW1 because of his personal animosity towards Kaiser Bill, consequently dooming the british empire.

@@TheCerbari The Kaiser was to be treated with animosity, WW1 didn't really do anything to doom the British Empire. It went anyway , speeded on by WW2.

@@TheCerbari Kaiser Wilhem was no sweet lamb. He was always playing one-upmanship against his uncle as well as disrespecting his own mother and father.

@@here_we_go_again2571 I will argue that Vicky deserved the degree of animosity that she got from Wilhelm, same with Friedrich. Both of them were God awful parents to their older children. Everyone who was a political or historical figure during that time had a role to play in WW1, not just Bertie and Willy.

@@V1CT0RIOUS_ The Austria-Hungary, Russian and the Ottoman empires' rulers were as dysfunctional as the Brits and Germans. French society, although no longer a monarchy also had some really messed up rulers. Also Woodrow Wilson had his own (or perhaps the Freemason) agenda (who knows) but American society had recently taken a new turn (Wilson may have been riding the crest of those sentiments.)

It's un bon vivant ;)

Very well said, never mind if "un bon vivant" or "a bon vivant": he was definitely one!!

@Ruti Sharoni when i learn a language i want to know the correct way to say it . Don't be dramatic 🙄

Entente Cordial.

I think I even asked you to make a video about him in the comments of a past video 😭

Because he didn't do anything.

He was a good man at heart and had serious concerns for his people. He turned out to be a Beloved King by his people.

@@gennarojg3 I second this

I hate him.

With everything we know about her now thanks to the internet and books. If she would have given him some responsibility he might not have been that person that she despised. A wealthy man who's all doors were open to him and given no purpose she actually created in him what it was she didn't like about him. It sounds like Queen Victoria was a very selfish person ended think the Victorian air is supposed to be a role model when she even stayed away from her people and made her children's lives miserable. It's pretty amazing if you think about it that King Edward the seventh turned out to be such a good and different King then his mother. One bit of information I personally have not been able to find and I'm curious about. With George the fifth saying I was afraid of my father and I'm going to make damn sure my children are afraid of me. Especially its history makes it sound like Edward the seventh did was party and had mistresses so it doesn't seem he was around the children very often. I know times are different but everytime I read how young children were sent to work even his children at 12+ 9 going away to work it makes my heart break.

He was not ignored, both parents paid too much attention to him...not the right type though.

@@pamelameadows9717 I am impressed by your post. Surely Queen Victoria was behaving in a personally selfish manner by depriving her son of any significant role in governance once he showed more than enough talent to be helpful. It seemed as though she was perpetually punishing him for the early death of Albert, and connected his death to Edward's first affair with Nellie Clifton. As for George the Fifth however I am surprised to hear that he said that. I always thought that he and Edward had a very warm relationship, almost like siblings rather than a traditional father and son. If you've found anyting further about George's "fear" of Edward I love to know the sources etc.

@@canalesworks1247 he said my father was afraid of his mother and I was afraid of my father and I'm damn well going to make sure that my children are frightened of me. That is a quote. However what you said about them being best friends is true he also said that. After reading back what I wrote I'm surprised you can make sense of it. My lack of punctuation can make it all string together. No one expected Edward VII to be a good King. Then he turned out to be one of the best. I totally agree with you I think Queen Victoria continue to resent Edward VII. I really enjoyed reading your comment. I've always found the British royal family to be interesting. Especially when history repeats itself. Personally especially what's going on in the 21st century I don't think I'd want to live that life. At the very least not want to be king or queen.

Poor man…pfffffff

his grandson edward viii was like his grandfather in many ways. he was wildly popular and had a childhood was enviable only because of his family's wealth. for all her children queen victoria was a lousy mother. kings and queens make crummy parents.

You kidding me? What about the children in the workmills and factories working 14 hrs to 16 hrs a day. Shame on you

Mistresses. Not just Daisy. But also Ann and Lillie. But like she said, “At least he loved me best of all” and he did, in his own f****d up way.

@@willowbrooke1215no one cared about them then and the same now. Do you know any poor person from the 1800’s. It is how the world is.

Absolutely !!!!

She was an unfaithful trollop just like Camilla, the Queen CAVORT.

It takes 2 to tango

Uhh, she was a married woman that knew better.

It's amazing how much can be learned online. I wish there had been an internet when I was in college or grad school.

This was a very realistic portrayal of Prince Bertie and his wife Alex.

Very melodramatic, though

Yes, I saw that and enjoyed that series

Yessss. It is fabulous. I saw it when I was living in Europe. Then saw it again here in the USA!

@@cindysammy2513 It wasn't melodramatic, it was closely based on real events and characters.

Benji was getting it on in Paris 😅

There is no evidence he had ADD. He was simply given an extraordinarily heavy educational regime that was too intense for him.

One hopes you😢 are not equating women with coissants. Just another “French delicacy”

My French teacher told me to do five things when sampling wine. I could never remember all of them. But you’ve got it!

Could you explain why Elizabeth ll and Charles lll are designated simply R whereas the others, earlier are R1 ? (This is a genuine request for information )

@@marilynwoolford-chandler1161 R.I. stands for Rex of Regina Imperorator or Imperatrix. It was granted to Queen Victoria by the Government of Benjamin Disraeli in 1876 when she became Empress of India. The Queen mentions it in her Journal when she says she took pride in signing a document for the first time R.I. Thereafter, all the Sovereigns (who happened to be male) signed themselves R.I. Rex Imperator. This continued until 1947 when India gained independence. So the last Sovereign and Consort who signed themselves R.I. were King George VI and His Consort Queen Elizabeth (The Queen Mother). An interesting fact that shortly before midnight on 14th August 1947 as India became Independent at Midnight. His Majesty King George bestowed the Order of the Star of India onto his two daughters Their Royal Highnesses Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret. The Insignia was a particularly beautiful brooch of diamonds and other precious stones. I hope you found that interesting.

what living a live of leisure and doing nothing... yes what a burden

Well said I would only add one thing that his mother blamed him for his father’s death and never stopped blaming him. I can’t imagine what that did to him.

Better to be the accountant - Me

“Still accountable to me” ~ The King

he was a great gourmand and womanizer

Thank you!

See previous page and the mention of Lily langtree a very intriguing story and one that I was so happy to see here knowing her knowing her history and The name that my husband and I chose for our Dallas enterprise what's Lillie Langtree's!

There has also long been doubt about the time of death. A few minutes would have made quite a difference. Was he helped?

​@@lizeggar2421Are you thinking about his son, George?

Cadence, there is a video about Kaisèr Wilhelm II but nothing very ecxiting: it's the story about a man, born with the handicap of his left arm being half the lenght of his right arm. Not exactly a happy man, who in 1920 fled from Germany to Holland where he remainèd till his death in 1940: durinģ his years in Germany he busied himself with the navy, not with the economic situation in Germany which was catastrofic. In short: not an important leader.

@@rutisharoni9249 on people's profiles? I couldn't find it. There seems to be two for William the Conquerer and Edward III though are they remaking earlier ones?

​@@rutisharoni9249 r9

Edward VII's reign was short because he waited 60 years to become King.

Smoking was considered medicinal in his day. Tobacco packs didn't contain warnings. Its use was encouraged by the medical profession.

Yes! More artists and composers please. Scientists, writers. Etc.

They're all very good suggestions, but maybe you could make your own channel so that the content that you want will be sufficient enough for you

Unless I was paying a channel personally, I would never presume that I can tell them what content to produce

@@Jerseyboondocks Get a life.

This man also uses correct grammar, a rarity these days.

And father.

He was lucky, since the devil was too late to know about his demise! 😂

…I can’t tell if you’re joking. Do you seriously think most people are unaware of that? EVERYONE knows that.

That was "enough to float a battleship".

I had hoped that crown would burst into flames when it touched her head!

I think he was simply pushed too hard with an educational regime which suited his elder sister who was regarded by Baron Stockmar as "gifted to the point of genius" whereas he was a boy of average intelligence albeit with a remarkably good memory - it's said he never forgot a face.
