The British monarchy presents a paradox. It is one of the most stable institutions in history. Yet it has rarely been free from crisis. Royal Revolutions explores crucial moments of trial, tension and change in British Royal history. The first season is devoted to Britain's most recent Royal Revolution - the Abdication crisis of 1936.
