The titles Nazi King or Traitor King say enough about the quality of both documentaries, for sure when it is brought in connection with National Geographic, which was once a widely respected periodical but has fallen into sensationalist depths since the once so promised start as a TV-channel.
It is also always completely overlooked that as King, Edward would have been 'under custody' of the Government and would have been by-steered, corrected, guided, advised by the ministers, the councillors and 'the grey men'. It is always easy to look to Edward as Duke of Windsor, living in Paris, without any correction mechanism, without ministers, without councillors, without 'grey men' and then look at actions he did in that perod and copy-paste this to a situation as if he still was King. That is what these documentaries do and sadly there are viewers who swallow it all as the truth. Edward was no Nazi, he was no member of the NSDAP and he most likely had no fanatically dedicated view in the God-like status of Hitler as Führer or the absolute supremacy of the white race and the divine destiny of the German people as the
Herrenvolk.
Thanking God that Wallis has come in his life because thinking what might have been of him as King during WWII shows you have fallen in this trap too. No one can say how it would have been. As Edward VIII was a very popular Prince of Wales, had so much more charisma and was an excellent speaker, he most likely could have turned into the most popular King ever thanks to his excellent speeches during the War, touching every Briton to the core of his/her soul and make then murmuring after each radio speech: "Thank God that He has given us this great King.... God save the King!".
