What happens

Prime Minister Baldwin has made it quite clear that the dignity of the King-Emperor will be impinged if he were to marry not just a commoner, but also a divorcée and if that was not bad enough, an American. After much soul searching his majesty has chosen love over duty and has chosen to abdicate. His younger brother, Albert, will assume the mantle as King George VI. London bookmakers are already taking odds on whether this shy man will make it to his own coronation.
