  1. Kurt Hahn was an educational nightmare. I have never understood why he is regarded as anything other than a dangerous crank.

  3.  @kevinjones3908  For some reason I do not understand, my previous response was deleted. The facts are these. Cecil King did want to orchestrate a coup, and he had a meeting with Lord louis Mountbatten. As soon as he outlined his ideas, Sir Solly Zuckerman said "this is pure treason, and I advise you, Dickie, to have nothing to do with it." That was it.

  4. Not just a Baroness. She grabbed a baronetcy for her husband, so that he ghastly son would inherit a title.

  8.  @kevinjones3908  And it is pure fantasy by the script writers. Cecil King wanted to attempt a coup, and tried to sound out Lord louis Mountbatten about at. At the first meeting, Sir Solly Zuckerman said "This is pure treason, and I would advise you, Dickie, to have nothing to do with it". That was the end.
