The cast
King George III becomes a worry to his family as he has been increasingly erratic after losing the American colonies; eventually doctors are brought in to cure his supposed madness. All of them are eminently respectable quacks and one is in the employ of the Prince to Wales, a man with a strong motive for easing the king further into madness. When the King recovers with the aid of a country doctor, a constitutional crisis is averted. |
