What's left behind the scenes
- Many historians believe that George III's mental state was a consequence of porphyria, a hereditary disease that causes urine to turn bluish. Recent research, particularly of his correspondence, has revealed episodes of obsession, and the medications for obsession at that time could also have caused the bluish discoloration of urine, which some mistook as a sign of a psychiatric illness.
- The filmmakers knew from the very beginning that Nigel Hawthorne (1929-2001) should play the role of George III. Alan Bennett, the author of the play adapted for the screen by Nicholas Hytner, agreed to the adaptation only on the condition that Hawthorne would play the monarch.
