You can actually tell that Albert will be a king from the way he looks. He has a certain charisma when you look at him and you get the feeling that he will be someone important.
God bless him, you can see how painfully hard he's trying not to stammer. I've only just seen the movie "The King's Speech" this summer and am an American. But this story touched me, not just because it had great cast, and was well written. But the fact that it was real, and how hard he was pushed and bullied by his brother, and extremely strict upbringing. Feel really sorry for him, but what an amazingly brave and deterred man he was. Wish I could have met him, but will meet him in haven.
People didn't know Britain had the German code at the time so people in high places had warning of when there were going to be bombs while everybody else didn't know.
I am not religious, and I wouldn't really mind Camilla being Queen, and she certainly will be legally if Charles is crowned, but I don't feel she should be crowned at Charles' coronation. I imagine that is what the deciding factor will be, how could she ever be crowned in Westminster Abbey? The Church couldn't allow it. We may have a Princess Consort after all.
the speech he gave at 07:00 was before or after he met Lionel Logue?

Ok, the modern wave they use is crazy enough; but what is up with the old wave used in these videos? Was that ever viewed as "regal"?
