So you've seen The King's Speech, now watch The Lost Prince.

This two part BBC mini series tells the story of the younger brother of Bertie and David. Prince John was afflicted with epilepsy and a learning disability that may have been Autism. To avoid public embarrassment, John was sent away to live on a farm outside of London.

Touching and poignant amid the tumult of the events leading up to WWI.

Highly Recommended.

1. Second that recommendation

Also very accurate. Doesn't whitewash.
