Were it any other man who'd committed these acts, they'd have been lined up against a wall and shot. Churchill himself would have only been too happy to have pulled the trigger. That Edward was perfectly willing to spend the lives of British citizens to reclaim the throne shows how utterly unfit he was to wear the crown, or even be allowed the right of continuing on as a British subject.
Nazis used him as a tool. He was primed to be a king and only a king. He didnt bring those comies any luck and possibly did them more damage than good.
Great documentary, Edward was truly a disgrace of a man. A coward. And he seems to have been evil too. And dumb, like having little mental abilities. What do you think is worse? an intelligent evil person or a dumb evil person like Edward? I don't think Wallis was the big monster here, I think Edward was.
Contrasts: Edward VIII & Edward, Duke of Kent (E.VIII’s great grandfather ).
E. DofK separated from his love, M. St. Laurent, to marry and have a child (Q. Victoria ).
E.VIII, abdicated the English throne to marry his love, Wallis Simpson.
E. DoK restored the Gibraltar Colony in 1803, but was criticized.
E. VII was criticized for abdication, but perhaps he intended to deceive Hitler and position himself to moderate harsh subjugation of England if America remained neutral, and Germany won?
In 1936- English Gov. appeased Hitler & self-disarmed. Churchill said Hitler would attack, so was called a War Monger. A hopeless situation for a disarmed England! Did E. abdicate & fake a roll to position himself to mitigate harsh subjugation of England in future? In 1940, did his words & dangerous wandering from Paris to Provence to Portugal, offer himself as “bait”, hoping to delay Hitler’s invasion past summer & radar setup?- Hitler did delay. --Did Edward's desperate acts save Britain?

If Germany had defeated England Edward would have been reinstated as king of England. He should never have been forced to abdicate the throne in the first place. I believe that he was a far superior man to his brother. He would have served England well as an ally of Germany.
I wonder what motivated him to do all these things. They are so blatantly obviously the sort of things the King or the ex-King must never do. Yet, he went about doing them so publicly. I smell something. There were reasons. I cannot think of any, though.
@tnakai1971jp lol MONEY !!! it is real simple, it is always either money or power. If you have money then power, if you don't have money, then it is money with power coming later. remember these 2 pigs had to have money to retain a lifestyle they thought the were entitled to. the KGB would have had jobs for them, in the Gulags, rofl !!
I fail to understand. He had all the qualities money could never buy. The blood is the most precious quality which he had. If all of what is being alleged in this documentary is true, it is sad that he did not have to live up to his blood.
@tnakai1971jp that it is, and his blood tied him to something even more precious, THE LAND, the soil, England, he betrayed that and his subjects. Sad really isn't it? But providence throned the right king at the right time, because he got out among the people, to me there is no finer quality.
@tnakai1971jp lol well sweetie, that was waaaaaaaaay before my time, he would have been like a great granpa to me, so well I don't know, I would say if he did, they paid them off, he and Wallis didn't think much of kids I don't think, too selfish.
Well, It is said that Madonna is directing a movie about the Windsors. I wonder if she will tell the true story about their treason, racisim, antisemitism. I doubt it, as I feel she lacks the intellectual capacity to do so. Thank you for the upload. This was riveting and very informative.
@daycan1 rofl, she could play Mrs Simpson the witch was raised in DETROIT, a blue collar town, she thinks she is British now doesn't she? I don't keep up with her, her boring antics I could care less.
Gore Vidal wrote about knowing the Windors in his memoir "Palimpsest." He liked them both. He likened the duchess to a wise-cracking flapper. He especially liked the duke because Vidal had a soft spot for extraordinarily unintelligent people. In his estimation, the duke was a complete boob.
I watched the whole of this documentary and found it fascinating. I am sorry that these allegations were not tested in court. What a despicable selfish and unintelligent man. Wallis Simpson saved this country from that idiotic buffoon and provided a good excuse to get rid of him. Had it not been for her I am sure his head would have ended up on the block as he so thoroughly deserved !
If he had not been born into the royal family, he would have been hanged for high treason a hundred times over. A criminal in every sense of the word.
Why on earth was he your hero for heaven's sake?! He was a traitor/spy/money launderer/leech/liar/louse...with no loyalty or values whatsoever. Completely self interested and dishonest. He sympathised with Hitler who was a mass murderer! He should have been hung, drawn and quartered or at least killed in a car 'accident' like other one-time members of the royal family. Get real, Brian!
Rather than arranging an accident, as you suggest here has been done to a former member of the royal family, he ought to have been openly tried for treason and then imprisoned like any other common criminal, or even executed, as others would have been. I find the cover up speaks volumes about the lack of character of the British royals, who apparently are more interested in image than in substance. Elizabeth has never visited Israel, and I hope she never will visit our holy soil.
Prince Harry should have known better - but that doesn't make him a copy of Edward Vlll - it would be nice to see Prince William follow the Queen to the throne - not Prince Charles!!!!
I see you see things the same as I do. The next King Charles will be the end of the British monarchy. It will be a shame, the Labour Party will then turn England into just another province of the E.U. bureaucratic monstrosity.
What I don't understand is why Queen Elizabeth (GeoVIconsort) would want to suppress such documents which would only highlight her and the King's probity and bravery during the war.
When the monument to Queen Mary was unveiled Edward and his wife returned to England for the ceremony. The Queen Mother ignored them and stood with her back to them. Good for her! She was remarkably clear about certain basic values and that is her lasting greatness.
The monarchy was lucky. Albert Duke of York was the best of that generation. The country was lucky that Edward persuaded himself that Wallas Simpson was the necessary to his life and quit the throne. Albert , when became George VI and his wife of affectionate memory, Queen Elizabeth fulfilled their duties without great honour and distinction. Thus the monarchy survived. Now the monarchy needs another bit of luck--something that will rid us of threat of Charles's succession to the throne.
