Synopsis:
After 200 years under lock and key, all the personal papers of one of our most important monarchs are for the first time seeing the light of day. In the first documentary to gain extensive access to the Royal Archives, Robert Hardman sheds fascinating new light on George III, Britain’s longest-reigning king. George III may be chiefly remembered for his madness, but these private documents reveal a monarch who was a political micro-manager and a restless patron of science and the arts, an obsessive traveller who never left southern England yet toured the world in his mind - a man who was driven (sometimes to distraction) by his sense of duty to his family and his country. Featuring Simon Callow and Sian Thomas as the voices of King George and Queen Charlotte.
Reviews:
"I thought that this was a very interesting documentary. I don’t know too much about this monarch other than he was the one that was in power when the American Revolution happened. At school, they rarely talked about King George III other than he was a tyrant and he went a bit off his rocker. I like really getting to see that he was a pretty smart man that did have a bit of crazy in him.
This documentary really brings him to life in a way I was not expecting to see. There are always two sides to every story and the truth is usually in between those two sides, and I like seeing things that made him tick.
If you enjoy learning the history of a Famous King, that we are not taught much about, I recommend checking this out. Kind of curious if the queen knew more than she let on?"
