Drama: Wallis: The Queen That Never Was, 9pm, Channel 5

This drama-documentary about Wallis Simpson utilises access to her diaries and private letters to piece together the details of her life. The film sheds light on her abusive first marriage and rather odd courtship by Edward VIII, whose infatuation with her was often obsessive and controlling. Featuring dramatic reconstructions of key moments, with Georgina Rich as Wallis and Alex Avery as Edward (both above).
