The first season of this show proceeds with its storylines on Edward VIII's abdication and later treatment by the royal family and British government without revealing the extent to which that treatment was colored by his and his wife's sympathy to (and possible collusion with) the Nazis and Adolf Hitler. The extent of these actions was detailed in British government files (the Marburg and Windsor Files) that were suppressed by Sir Winston Churchill on national security grounds and not published until 1957. They revealed not only the extent of Edward and Wallis's Nazi sympathies, but also the details of a bizarre Nazi plot to overthrow King George VI during World War II and reinstall Edward as king of England, this time as Hitler's puppet. This element of Edward and Wallis's characters was addressed in greater detail during the show's second season.
