King George VI opens an exhibition in Scotland - this shows the King (formerly the Duke of York) stuttering and stammering very badly.
This is an Empire Exhibition at Ibrox Park, Glasgow, Scotland.
Title reads : "Empire Exhibition Opened By H.M. The King" - Pathe Gazette.
GV Royal carriage arrives. Large cheering crowds fill the stand. MV Cheering crowds - lots of waving. The Royal carriage pulls up to the dais.
King George VI (formerly Prince Albert, Duke of York) and Queen Elizabeth (Queen Mother, formerly Duchess of York, Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon) get out of carriage. They are greeted by Lord Elgin, the President of the Exhibition. The King salutes as the National Anthem is played.
Lord Elgin welcomes the Royal Couple to the Exhibition. (Nat Sound). Cut aways to the King and Queen.
King George VI makes speech (various cut aways to people in the crowd). His speech is somewhat laboured and he has problems getting some of his words out.
Various shots of Union Jack flags flying, planes doing a fly over and some buildings of the exhibition. Good shots of children waving flags.
The King and Queen return to their carriage and are cheered as they leave the stadium. (Sound missing for this section on this copy).
Note: this appears to be a copy of a Pathe Gazette item - probably 38/36. UN 122 A was track ref, UN 121 B was mute neg ref. Therefore now UN 121 A / B.

It’s interesting to see the techniques he learned to help him not stutter in practice here - the rocking back and forth, the bouncing into difficult letters like p words. Also to see him struggling at times. Huge courage to get through it. He did very well!
After seeing the movie "The King's Speech" I am thrilled to see the actual King in this.🙌
Me too...
A great king for a man who never should have been and never wanted to be!
Here 2 days after George VI's oldest daughter's funeral. Sadly all 4 members of George VI's family gone now including his son in law Prince Phillip.
At one point he closes his eyes tightly and pauses. You can see him fighting for the words as he did at various times thoroughout the speech. He did what he had to, and I respect him for that. But that was still sad to watch.
What a pity youtube was not around for him too see all the kind comments.
Stammering? Hmmm he did very well. Makes a nation proud. Or it should.
He was a very courageous man.
5:57 "You still stammered on the 'W' ,"
What a miracle he and Lionel Logue achieved between them!!
He's a hero.
Thanks for sharing that already in 1938. It was referred to the commonwealth as opposed to the Empire interesting bit of foresight on his behalf. Sawadee Khap 🤠
The King’s Speech is a movie that shows the trials and problems the king had with shuddering. I suggest if you have not seen it rent it
Do you mean “intrigued”?
Studdering or stammering
My favorite movie. I can watch it over and over.
God bless this man.
The Nazis had their rallies, the Soviets their Red Square parades, and the British thier deluded spectacles of 'subjects' in the twilight of Empire and disintegration, whilst India still suffered famine and mass poverty, with land stolen in Africa and first peoples persecuted and marginalized in Canada, Australasia. At least Bertie gave credit to the workmen and acknowledged the economic depression of the 1930s in Scotland and across the Empire and Commonwealth.
Amazing
King George V 💥
King George VI.
I love Britain
❤❤❤
For person with stammer should not let speak more than 2 minutes at a time ever.
bit different when your a leader figure of a country let alone a King
He was fine. Did a good job.
A person with sub-human syntax such as yourself should not compose more than one sentence at a time, ever.
One of the tools that his speech therapist got him through these speeched was the strengthening of his diaphram and core body so that he could made speeches with some duration. The stigma of stuttering I can under of his time because in some cases in my life growing up in the 1960s there were moments that those who had a stutter were bullied. But in present contemporary times his stuttering was not all that disruptive of his speech but as I said earlier others felt entitled to bully stutterers.
“Should not let speak”?
Many people who stutter choose a career of public speaking and public life, such as pastors or actors or teachers. How about we let each individual choose.
I realize that King George didn’t choose, but must we limit him by this one aspect of his speech?
What would he say about his great grand son The Ginger Whinger ?
I think George VI would be very disappointed. Like Harry, he was a spare. When he reluctantly became king, there was no whining, no complaints, no smearing of his relatives. He just got on with the job diligently and graciously.
Harry isn't in direct line of the throne, nor was King George VI
