A Great British Scandal.
The scandal that erupted when Queen Elizabeth II's trusted art historian Anthony Blunt was exposed as a Russian spy.

It is rumoured that as a trusted insider, he was tasked by the King to help clean up evidence of potentially damaging stories about the royal family. But as the documentary reveals, it seems that royal insiders knew the truth about Blunt's treachery long before it was made public.
