What King George the VIth may lack in charisma, he more than made up for in courage. In humanity. In duty. As a New Yorker in America, I am repeatedly humbled and inspired by the grace and sacrifice this constitutional monarchical family made for their country, and the world at large. How fortunate we all are.
My father's cousin and her siblings grew up in London during this time. The stories she shared were incredible. They eventually were sent to live with other relatives in the country.
Absolutely phenomenal and awe-inspiring how Britain was so valiant in the face of such horrors, and how loved and significant the mere presence of their Majesties was for their people. God bless them all, God save the King.
We cannot know the changing tides of life but with God’s grace find strength to meet the challenge. If anything, it is important we are kind, support each other, respect each other and not feel threatened by our differences. The strength and dignity before challenge is what I admire about this KIng and Queen. Glad to hear their story
Elizabeth's precocious moral leadership lent courage to the commonwealth long before her summons to the monarchy and for decades into the 21st Century.
On a strictly fraternal basis, William should consider future support to The Invictus Games. The visibility of which should remain a matter between brothers.
At 75 I wish to thank the British for their steadfastness in the face of great odds. They showed the rest of the world how important it was to stand up for democracy.
Absolutely. Itd be like if Harry was going to be king rather than William. Or Margaret instead of queen Elizabeth. Or even Andrew instead of King Charles.
So did Churchill. The US would not have got into the war if 8th had been King. The other problem was that there were other nobles and royals that were in on it too. Somebody had to pay. It shaped up the others very quickly.
It was difficult to fight when different countries were afraid of Hitler but that king together with his wife the queen, was a fierceless power couple, UK needed. UK would have fallen if it was another king
The one positive thing about Elizabeth the queen motheris that She gave Bertie the King a stable enjoyable family life with us four, his wife and two daugh daughter's who were incredibly devoted to him.
Wow the King & Queen were so calm, collected and but defiant with Nazi even after bombing of the palace. If it was me, I would have been worried and my face will not be able to hide it. This power couple have to be strong when facing the public, so people will be led to be strong, defiant, calm, collected yet ready to fight. Salute to the power couple. UK you were so blessed to have them.
I saw the King and Queen many times during the war. To me as a young lad I was so proud that we had such a good couple as our King and Queen.Our. Country and people were a place that was worth living in. Today it is still a wonderful country.But it is no longer the country I remember.
You are blessed to have that power couple as the leaders in that timeline. Leaders were afraid of Hitler but that power couple, led UK. Not easy to go against a powerful leader but somebody had to stand up.
George V1 and Queen Elizabeth later the Queen Mother will go down in History as the Most Compastionat Monarch's who never swayed from Public duty and Seves and its Amazing how everyone all Pulled together Rich and Poor and helped and George V1 was quite right in adding his name too the George Cross and the George Medial and I think that his late Father would have Approved and I Certainly Approve of the SOE as they were Brave Women and Men
George V & George VI were alike in that neither of them were supposed to be king. They both had older brothers who should have been king. I have more respect for George VI because George V allowed the Russian royal family to be murdered when he could have helped them.
He didn't "allow" them to be murdered! He had no idea when they were refused asylum that they would be murdered. No one did. It was thought they'd simply find another country to sit the war out in.
You cant help your cousin easily, as people will be against your country, if you interfere as a leader of Uk. It wasnt easy for George V. Interference means war. Who would want that?
It was hereditary to be on the throne. But George VI and his wife, a great power couple really fulfilled their duty to their people. This royal family had both. Honorable.

Countries that are in the Commonwealth are all Voluntarily. If they don't like it they can always leave. At least 2 countries in the Commonwealth were never in the Empire.

@vincekderrigan8300. Maybe. But I think a Royal Family is a focal point for the country.there is history that is embedded in the monarchy which no Presidency can equal. Would one envisage the enthusiasm for a president on the balcony of Buckingham palace.or the pageantry of a Royal procession.and the mlitary involved inn it.I am old fashioned at 94 but to me I love what our country means despite those with closed ears and eyes.Mind you I. Ve had a fantastic 94 years.however I am glad I won’t be around much longer I don’t envy the younger generation..The kind of people I grew up with are long gone.ddiscipline and good manners and respect have long since dissapeared. All the best to you.

King George's voice was very soothing and comforting.

Your channel and Hannah's royal history are two of my favorites. Both have great narration and accurate information.
Some great footage I haven't seen before !!! ❤😊
I had never heard the queen's narration of VE day. What a treat!
Loved this King. How sad he left us too soon. 😢

William and Kate seem forged from similar steel.
We will give Harry wide latitude. He has 'smelled the smoke', and 'seen the elephant'. Every pre-pubescent warrior-wannabe needs an 'Uncle Harry'.
On a strictly fraternal basis, William should consider future support to The Invictus Games. The visibility of which should remain a matter between brothers.
@@douglassauvageau7262No Thankyou.LIar, Traitor, Drug addict, No thanks. Not in my Home.
At 75 I wish to thank the British for their steadfastness in the face of great odds. They showed the rest of the world how important it was to stand up for democracy.
I hope the alliance we forged with the UK will continue long after I'm gone.
One George 6th was worth more than 10 Edward 8ths. Hands down. I think a King Edward would have sold out the UK and the world to the evil axis powers
Absolutely. Itd be like if Harry was going to be king rather than William. Or Margaret instead of queen Elizabeth. Or even Andrew instead of King Charles.
Yes. Absolutely.

This was one of the better videos I have seen about the Royal Family and WW II

Omg the chicken interview! Ugh I love that humor 😂

Salute to the power couple. UK you were so blessed to have them.
The British people in those days were tough. Would today's Britons have survived under similar conditions?
Lol lol lol
❤❤❤❤❤❤ the video just watched it for the first time

len. I know I am a near contemporary of yours, but unfortunately in my opinion it isn't at all wonderful today.
Wow on yt and no less than an octogenarian possibly a nonagenarian, im impressed.
That was great. 😉
A lovely family❤

My mother and her parents endured the bombings of Birmingham, mom was never taken out of the city.

“His hereditary right to be King”. You mean his DUTY TO BE KING.
He could have refused!. But being honourable he didn't. That's the difference.

This royal family had both. Honorable.

Wasn't King George VI who fought WWII, and formed commonwealth countries as Britain's conquest?
No, you ignoramus
Countries that are in the Commonwealth are all Voluntarily. If they don't like it they can always leave. At least 2 countries in the Commonwealth were never in the Empire.

Can't watch anymore, far too many mistakes in 1st 5 minutes. My ocd can't cope. 😅
What are some of the mistakes?
Can't hear any factual errors whatsoever - all the dates quoted are spot on - but , lordy, the badly colourised footage hurts the eyes.
The first 5 minutes are quite correct
Perhaps she is struggling with the Kings speech? Maybe she is unaware of his speech impediment. I quite like the sound of his voice.
