Summary This revealing documentary follows King George VI's lengthy efforts to overcome his disability with the help of unorthodox Australian speech therapist Lionel Logue. Archival footage of the king's public speeches and, for the first time, interviews with Logue's former patients show how an afflicted but courageous king found his voice and rallied a nation throughout England's darkest hour.
