    If The Crown Fits

    1 9 6 1 (UK)
    6 x 30 minute episodes

    King Rupert X (Robert Morley who also wrote the scripts) is the ruler of the Mediterranean Kingdom of Grabnia.

    Grabnia, like the king, is roughly pear-shaped. Unlike the king, it occupies about 870 square miles. It is claimed to be a tourist’s paradise but it has no museums, no art galleries, no ancient architecture and no historical ruins.

    All important affairs – like parting tourists from their money – are conducted in English.

    King Rupert’s daughter, Princess Amelia (Tracey Reed) is something of a beatnik, who prefers to wear paint-splattered jeans and a sweater rather than a dress and a tiara.

    The ATV series debuted on Saturday 29 April 1961.
