概要
A sapphire cross fell from the Imperial State Crown onto wet cobbles as George V’s coffin passed through London - a public jolt that mirrored a private one: two days earlier a doctor had recorded using a syringe of morphine and cocaine on the king. Why did the palace tell the nation a peaceful death while a physician’s diary later revealed something far more deliberate?
In this episode, we recount the king’s final days at Sandringham, the bulletin written on a menu card, and the hidden diary of Lord Dawson of Penn that contradicts the official account - and we ask what it means when institutions decide the public cannot bear the full truth.
