  • Very accurate as well as interesting. I would have hoped that the documentary would have gone back further in time to the first "hickup", several hundred years before the Edward 4th.

  • An interesting documentary. But the Hastings would have been a completely different family had they succeeded to the throne. They too would have married other royals, may have ended up being just as German as the current royal family. They certainly would have settled on a few names, thus eliminating the need for a Barbara the first or Michael the first. Michael would never have married an Australian commoner, etc. We will never know what would have happened in this alternative universe!

  • @baronessvondengler - thank you - you are correct.

  • The true divine line - not just war title monarchs, are a long line of hairdressers from Accrington.

  • If I was Michael, I'd be in a u-haul pulling up in front of Buckingham Palace ...

  • (AND...sweet~)

  • A productive, republican King.....I LIKE IT!!!...

  • @88MPJ Well... honestly, I've never seen any President being "productive" as well. Take the example of my country - they've all been lawyers or engineers, and when they end their term, they simply get the biggest reform pay check of my country. It's not a better future than that which you have now. I'd prefer a King who at least showed some military marches and royal marriages, than a President who sticks in his two national palaces, and does nothing more than making national problems worse.

  • @AvatarMarxon90 It's a quandary--to be sure...

  • @88MPJ I'm sorry 88MPJ... but I don't know what is (or what means) a quandary :(

  • @88MPJ Never mind! I've learned a new word my friend! :D Thank you very much! It really is a "quandary" ( :3 ). But I think we need to see the pros and the cons, and in a majority decide what regime serves us better. For example, for my country, I do believe a Constitutional Monarchy would suit us better. As well as Serbia and Italy (and even the UK). But that's my opinion.

  • Michael surely has had a better life in Australia than he would have

    had being king.Lucky guy.

  • I'd love to see the sequel...Tony knocking on the Palace's door with his roll of information..."Excuse me Ma'am, I've done some family history for you. May I come in and show you?"

  • Fifty years ago Queen Elizabeth and the monarchy would have banned this program from television. And you know they wish they could ban it now.

  • LONG LIVE King Micheal!!!!!!!!!

  • Fascinating

  • I bet you won't find any Nazis in his family.

  • Amazing how the whole course of England's history (and I would argue the history of the whole world) hung over the legitimacy (or lack thereof) of Edward IV. If his legitimate brother had been King instead, there would have been no Henry VIII, no Elizabeth I, no English Reformation (I argue that the world is the way it is because of that), England would be Catholic, Scotland would be a separate nation, and so on! Amazing! Long live Michael of Plantagenet-Hastings!

  • @mackbee628

    yeah, and we could have done with out henry the 8th and him murdering all his wives

  • as an australian i also voted for a republic...the thought of seeing a king charles and queen camilla on the coins was a bit much..however...king micheal ??? no..i will stick with leaving the monarchy to britain...micheal for president !!!!

  • Get me another stubby Michael, I think I'm gonna need it.....

    King Michael is a beautiful reality, I want to live in that realm

  • The Divine Rights of Kings does exist and only God can Crown a King. We are in the time where the anti-Christ sets himself up as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. The once and future King Arthur.

  • Wrong, Richard III left Hugh Courtenay heir. It is a long story but I have all the proof, that I am the true heir. Not going into it here. Check out Facebook under the name Prince Corey for more details.

  • @BCFalls1 prince...."corey"...oh please...can it get any worse ????

  • the commentator has a weird hard-on for the monarch. This whole documentary just goes to show how how family wealth, and not hard work, will give people power.

  • I think placing Michael on the throne may be the best thing to happen to the monarchy and to Britain in a while. Either way, do away with the Windsors!

  • Seems like a really sweet man. Good on him, and his family. His descendants were lucky to not have been kings, they missed out on all the inbreeding and craziness. Just normal people, actually contributing to society.

  • I don;t think Elizabeth would have been a commoner. She would be a Princess of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (either deposed or not), Also if you think of it. James I of England was the rightful heir of the House of Wessex and the Anglo-Saxon before William the Bastard conquered England in 1066.

  • This is very interesting but I thought the biggest "genetic break" was not between the Plantagenets and the Tudors but between the Stuarts and the Hanovers (Windsors) who were only distant cousins, not much closer than 2 randoms really. If you really must take this seriously Prince William is more 'royal' than the Queen since Diana was a direct decendant of Charles II.

  • I like King Michael!

  • His daughters laugh like princesses. The World needs you,there is so much corruption in the governments please come and rescue us from the vile corrupt people,perhaps God raised you in humility to know first hand how all of us are treated by those who oppress us.

  • Wonderful documentary! There is NO such thing as coincidence, but it is all divinely orchestrated to suit His purposes. One day it will all be made clear. Thank you for sharing this.

  • INCROYABLEMENT STUPIDE

  • I want pictures of the family

  • at the end, is it elizabeth???

  • hahaha i love how the end part elizabeth was like shopping for meat hahahahaha

  • why?

  • HAIL MICHEL THE 1ST.

    LONG LIVE THE KING

  • Surely,this chap's Plantagenet ancestors were just as dodgy.They would not have been in England at all,if it were not for the Norman Conquest(which was an illegal act ). The elected King of England died at Hastings !

  • Exactly. There are loads of alternative successions, this is just one of them. It is impossible to say who WOULD have been on the throne, being the monarch may have have meant that some were killed in battle before they had children, ruining the succession.

    We should all just accept that the current monarch is HM Queen Elizabeth II and she ain't going nowhere!

  • @MattAbel24 Also, who can garantee there isn't a Plantagenet bastard somewhere along the line also?

    Tony's right about what he says on history at the end.

  • A true king is a humble king just like Micheal the aussie.

  • Also, isn't this documentary kind of beside the point, since Richard Plantagenet, 3rd Duke of York "recognized" is "son" Edward? Bastard or not, Edward the 4th legitimately inherited the throne by virtue of that recognition. Or have I got that wrong?

  • (throwing my head back and laughing maniacally) "Bwahahahahahaha! One step closer to the throne!!" Seriously though, I wonder how quickly that lone scrap of paper, documenting Edward the 4th's illegitimacy will mysteriously disappear?

  • oh yeh and consdel2000 u are completely right he does have that air about him doesnt he, i mean he actually looks like a king!!

  • glitterystarify its like you'v missed the whole point completely! no1 is being insulting and disrespectful to the queen because all the current monarch is based on a lie, SHE SHOULD NOT BE QUEEN YOU FOOL!!!

    if i were His Royal Highness King Micheal i would make my claim to the throne and boot the old hag outta there 2day!

    everytime i see money from now on i'll have to look at her ugly mug knowing she's just a fraud!!

    Long live King Micheal the 1st!!!

  • Michael*

  • even if the Throne was taken it was a long Time ago ,over centuaries There is no way the Throne is going to be returned so get over it! it's too late.

    this is insulting and disrespectful to The Queen long live HM The Queen! Queen Elizabeth II. the Throne was probably taken good reason. As distant cousin to The Queen I say back off

  • Queenie is Queen by a whim of chance. She could just as easily be sweeping gutters and horse shit if this guy was on the throne. And by the way, she's already lived long.. Way too long.

  • how would one even get an audience to challenge and how would the exchange go? would it just be war or would she run back to bavaria ?

  • "would she run back to bavaria ? " - Hanover, I think you'll find.

  • There is nothing good about a monarchy. It says me and my decendants rule because I killed all my enemies 1300 years ago and was the best thug of my day.

  • Don't all people strive for individual gain?

  • @blacbraun

    Current ELECTED politians do the same, but instead of killing (because that's seriously against the law and a murder would raise too much suspicion) they go about butt-kissing, stabbing in the back, corrupting and connecting with "all the right people" to manipulate the stupid masses to vote for them. Do you honestly think an honest politician could survive in that system? Don't be so naive.

  • Monarchists and the religious are one and the same. Love to believe rubbish and hide their head in the sand.

  • "No such thing as the divine right of Kings."

    Could not have said it better myself.

  • But really... who the HECK needs royalty anyway ???

  • Queen Elisabeth II Frud.

  • It's in the blood, no doubt about it. Look at his sons too. They look ready to don armour and take to a horse.

  • yeah i always knew she was part scottish but she was also through her mother's family, the earl and countess of strathmore ie scottish nobility. but i would really like an independent scotland wiht a monarch, i wouldn't mind elizabeth as monarch, i think the snp's would be happy with that, im am not a fan on the republic thing. i gather from other videos on royal families, its the republic countries who really like royalty, ie germany and usa. what are your thoughts?

  • scotland having a monarch! that would be amazing! i want scotland to eb independent, but i like the queen and the royal family.

  • the queen is actually more scottish than any other nationality, her mother being scottish making her half scottish, she is also the 11x great grandaughter of mary queen of scots, making her decended from people like robert the bruce, james vi etc.

  • i hope we dont get a republic, why the hell would you people want that, just get rid of the labour, con and lib dems and get some decent parties and we'll be fine :P

  • Republic means not ruled by in-bred thugs with a lot of history. Or at least if we are ruled by them it's because the people vote for them.

  • prince jetand prince zack? thatd be fucking hilarious

  • There is no such thing as the divine right of Kings......

    tony fair play to you my lad.

    Those are the most beautiful words I think I have ever heard.....

  • gotta raise the point if he's the rightful king couldn't he make england a republic if he wanted to?

  • King Michael the man who will defeat the devil.

  • Just goes to show how conniving the fake royals really are doesn't it?

    None of them have any business being where they are - they have no qualms about killing anyone who gets in the way of power either.

    I heard from my grandmother that the queen mother had her sister put into an asylum years ago - anyone got any info on that?

    Seems to be a habit with them - either kill them or discredit them if they get in the way.

  • im having such a good time.its nice His light isnt it? amazing,truly amazing. And the bushes have special needs children they have airbrushed out of family photos.  in breeding,its all about eugenics.Think if charles and camilla had kids chromosone deficiency related you know.(i know you know)

    they own jack squat.

  • this was a good one grannie thanks..real shocker more than mother theresa!

  • King Michael is a better king then all the kings of Europe! He is actually a useful citizen!

  • Doesn't really matter if he is Australian - many an English monarch was foreign (George I, James I, William I to name a few) and all post Willian I were of foreign descent. Probably matters that he is a Republican though - although should he actually offered the crown, methinks he may have a change of heart

  • @savmac123 Australians are not foreign to the English. We are family. The same blood courses through our veins

  • :O shocking!!!. i wonder if they can get back the

    crown?
