description: The story of the two eldest sons of George V, who became Edward VIII and George VI, showing how they emerged into adulthood scarred by their cold mother and bullying father. One confident and self-indulgent, the other hesitant and insecure, we see them meet and marry Wallis Simpson and Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, and lose all vestiges of brotherly love.
