So how accurate was The King's Speech
An interview with the film's historical advisor: Hugo Vickers
I felt that the lead didn't have a strong resemblance to George VI. That distracted me a bit while I watched the film. Also, I think (but might be mistaken) that The King is shown wearing his Garter chain AND riband in one scene, which I think is never done.
