In September 1951, surgeons removed King George VI's left lung inside Buckingham Palace. He was told it was a "structural problem." It was cancer, and his doctors made sure he never heard the word.
This is the story The King's Speech left out: the shy, stammering second son who never wanted the crown, carried Britain through the Second World War, and died just five months after that secret operation.
Was George VI a mess? Tell me in the comments.

The last are often the best because they never sought the position, obtaining it through obligation to duty rather than ambition driven by personal engrandisement and narcissism.
