    Amazing video, I have always wondered about the history of the Kew Palace after George iii. The Palace seems so much bigger than what we see in the video, I'm supposing not all is open to public and that all rest of the room's are in need of repairs just like the last few we saw, is this true? I'm an American but have always had a soft heart for George iii. Thank you for talking of a good man.

    Imagine the audacity of a king and queen who make time out of their day to be spent with their children. Sets a dangerous precedence. It made me laugh at the absurdity of those who feel the need to comment on every aspect of lives they don't really know. And, Margaret, your reference to King George's bouts of illness only serve to illustrate his absence from duty and family. It was a pleasure to learn more about the man and King as health would permit. I love Kew Palace. When it becomes an air b&b I'll be over. Oh, and did you notice that glimpse of red outside Charlotte's bedroom. Hmmm? Another wonderful tour. And with only glimpses of the hot houses for plants this entire experience is added to my bucket list. Love the gardens and fountains. Cheers 🎉🎉🎉
