Love in Exile

Part of the ,,Forty minute" series of documentaries that have nothing in common besides from their lasting time. This 1984 documentary provides a fascinating account of the lives of the former King Edward VIII and the American divorcée for whom he gave up the British throne in 1936. The Duke died in 1972 but the Duchess lived on until 1986, two years after this programme was transmitted.
