Historians believe the Duke of Windsor actively collaborated with the Nazis during the Second World War

In 1937, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor set off on a tour of Germany, when the Nazi regime was in full control of the country.

"This would be all over the world — photographs of Wallis and Edward with Hitler," historian Jane Ridley says in the documentary. "This would be acutely embarrassing and unacceptable [to the royal family]."

In October of that year, the duke wrote a thank you letter to Hitler after spending time with him at his mountain retreat.

"It's written in German, but the translation reads, 'To the Führer and [Chancellor], the Duchess of Windsor and I would like to thank you sincerely. Our trip through Germany has made a great impression on us. Many thanks to you for the wonderful time that we had with you at the Obersalzberg," Andrew Lownie, author of Traitor King: The Scandalous Exile of the Duke & Duchess of Windsor, says in the film.
