On 30 November 1964, Edward, Duke of Windsor - formerly King Edward VIII - was interviewed by ITN's Peter Woods. The occasion of the interview was the 90th birthday of Sir Winston Churchill. Over the course of five minutes, the Edward the Abdicator paid tribute to Churchill by sharing a number of memories of the elder statesman, including the first time they met; Churchill's role in assembling Britain's war fleet at the outbreak of the First World War; and the support provided to Edward by Churchill during the abdication crisis of 1936.

Ok that's Churchill done. Now, how did you feel about Hitler?

2 months later Winston died, so he got his message of thanks in just in time.

That was one of his faces. He had at least one other.

Not forgetting that Winston threatened court marshal in order to send HRH to the caribbean for the duration of the war.

I think this is the kind of interview Prince Andrew was expecting. Still an amazing piece of history.

He’s sticking to a script. Must have been a script that the Queen’s people wrote, and he received 10,000 pounds for doing it! He never did anything unless it benefited him. Not unlike another royal we know.

This is not an interview. This is a series of canned responses to fed questions. It's like a live enactment of a magazine interview.

Interview made under control. It doesn't sound like a spontaneous debate.

Edward Vlll was a womanizing drunk who lived his life under the thumb of Wallis Simpson, who incidentally couldn't stand Edward. I guess after years of pondering his life he could talk a good game. Thank God for George V1 and Elizabeth 11!!

The British Monarchy dodged a bullet when this one abdicated.

There is a back story on this royal number as he was trying to do a deal with Hitler resulting in him (Edward) returning to England.

If only Edward could have been asked about his role in the murderous scandal of Marguerite Alibert, aka. Princess Marie Marguerite Fahmy. She was Edward's beautiful, high-class French prostitute during WWI, to whom he foolishly wrote numerous embarrassing letters which she kept. Marguerite Alibert later married a wealthy Egyptian Prince, whom she murdered in London in 1923. She shot him twice in the back and once in the head with a pistol. However, key-evidence about her real background, and previous gold-digging activities, was mysteriously suppressed by the judge, and she was cleared on the dubious grounds that she had been 'acting in self defence.' It is virtually a certainty that a deal was done in secret, saving Edward's ex-mistress from conviction and the hangman, in return for Edward's letters to her.

There are some amazing pictures of the review of the fleet at Spithead in 1914.

Obviously a well rehearsed and tactical interview - the Duke loathed Beaverbrook....

I’m so used to seeing the actor from The Crown, it seems weird to see the real guy…😂
