George took it so hard that the day after Amelia died, he had to be put in a straight jacket, just holding him down on the floor wasn't going to work this time. He was violent and physical and nobody could constrain him enough. So they needed to put him in a straight jacket. It's again, there's something traumatic that happens.

The king was described as turbulent, incoherent, disordered, impatient, exceedingly talkative, violent, and believed that he himself was already dead. And then Prince George in one of his letters said, and I quote, a great amount of water runs through his chair as he refuses to use a chamber pot. So this is so serious. He is basically permanently downhill. He is also going blind in a separate unrelated incident. And modern doctors believe that at this point, he was actually exhibiting signs of dementia in addition to everything else that was going on. And that year, the Regency was put in place for real, like the real genuine. We now have a Prince Regent and some common sense members, not of the House of Lords, but of the House of Commons asked quite pointedly, why have we not done this before? Because we now know what happened in 1801 and 1805, when everyone was just la la la and didn't tell us anything. And we don't appreciate that. We don't appreciate that at all. And so although they gave the Prince Regent powers, they gave him some powers for a year, and then they became permanent after a year, they made sure that it was Queen Charlotte that had charge of the King and a council made up of the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Archbishop of York, some other Privy counselors, they were all in charge of informing Parliament as to what was going on. They did not leave that to the Prince Regent.
