The King's Real Speech (George VI Stutter) [Full Resolution]. A video of King George VI stuttering and stammering, from the British Pathe archive. This clip was said to have moved Colin Firth to tears, as reported by the New York Times.

The King is opening the Empire exhibitino at Ibrox Park in Glasgow, Scotland (1938). Queen Elizabeth is there (formerly The Queen Mother, and before that the Duchess of York, played in the film 'The King's Speech' by Helena Bonham-Carter).

Listen to George VI's heartfelt Coronation Speech whilst watching the Coronation Procession through London:

  • Your chanel is amazing. Real good documents and historical videos. Thank you very much. Keep uploading.

  • He stuttered more in the movie than in real life, I think... but that's only to be expected, I guess. Movies like to exaggerate....

  • God Save the King!

  • @ilyverymuchly this is after his speech training though. I dont think the speech before his speech training (much worse than this and I believe the first one shown in the film) exists in sound form..

  • Wonderful man!

  • @Sub1117 evidence or you're just speaking out of your ass

  • @xxbluejay21 Lol dude, historically, this was the speech before his last speech in the movie. Use real facts, not a movie. Use your brain.

  • He was such an amazing man!! I truyl admire him!

  • he is verrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy­yyyyyyyyyyyy brave

    greattttttttttttttttttttttt

    he is an amazing man

    me ill never ever do something like that infron off all those people

  • Good job Bertie <3

  • @ilyverymuchly This is probably after he got it "fixed". Most of the time in the movie he was still working on it. Use your brain.

  • Colin Firth makes a better King George.
