Library shot of the King.
Researcher Comments
There is a commentary script numbered 308 which nevertheless would appear to belong to this issue and story - however, it contains the erroneous news that the Government had handed its resignation to the King, and it is unlikely that the script could have been delivered in this form. The commentary script has been crossed through.
