Badness Of King George IV, The
Synopsis
His style and taste defined the Regency period, but George VI’s extravagance and self-indulgence attracted ridicule, derision and hatred.
Using an imaginative blend of drama and documentary, The Badness Of King George IV tells the story of Britain’s most unpopular and out-of-touch monarch. Using contemporary sources, the programme pictures a dying, drug-addled King as he relives key events from his colourful life, haunted by the words of his critics.
