* ViewersAreGeniuses: After being told off for doubting Bertie, the courtier snidely asks if that's ''Doctor'' Logue, and Logue looks displeased. Lionel Logue was not a doctor, having learned his craft through experience rather than schooling--a fact which is well-known today thanks to ''Film/TheKingsSpeech'', but back in 2002 you'd probably have to do a bit of research to find it.

* HilariousInHindsight: Eileen Atkins plays Queen Mary here. She would play ''the exact same role'' in ''Series/TheCrown'' fourteen years later.
* ValuesDissonance: Everybody, including the hero and heroine but not Edward, displays stereotypical Victorian values and the sympathy is all with them. If you are unsympathetic with that, you indeed have values dissonance.
** ItMakesSenseInContext: Privilege and luxury were paid to Edward so he could be a "walking flag". It isn't too much to ask him to do the job for which he is paid with reasonable dignity.

** Lionel Logue gives a smart telling-off to a courtier fussing over whether Bertie will be able to give a radio address properly, saying that a {{Determinator}} like Bertie is admirable ''more'' because he keeps going through difficulties, that he's a better fellow than most royals, and he'll make a damn fine King.
