Pod Save The Queen

Edward VIII caused a constitutional crisis with his abdication, dismay with his wartime associations and an ongoing headache to the royal family.   Today, Prince Andrew and Prince Harry’s very different exits from their roles as working royals provide their own ongoing challenges. Pod Save the King host Ann Gripper is joined by historian and author Alexander Larman to reflect on the echoes between then and now - including a powerful video message and royal memoirs that made uncomfortable reading.  Power and Glory: Elizabeth II and the Rebirth of Royalty by Alexander Larman is out now, published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson Learn more about your ad choices.
