In "The Madness of King George," the elderly King George III of England shows troubling symptoms of mental illness, a condition poorly comprehended in 1788. As he oscillates between periods of disorientation and explosive anger, his well-meaning doctors struggle with ineffective treatments. Concurrently, Queen Charlotte and Prime Minister William Pitt the Younger work diligently to thwart the king's political rivals, spearheaded by the ambitious Prince of Wales, who seeks to claim the throne for himself. The political landscape becomes increasingly tense as they navigate the complexities of royal power and personal turmoil.
