Richard, Prince of Wales (Richie) and his playful brother George sneaked out with a fib to avoid 4 hours of non-stop Wagner. That night, their father James III dies and Richie is suddenly King Richard IV. His scheming elder sister Eleanor and her ambitious secretary Major Simon Brooks hope he'll make a mistake so the people would demand her. Footman Jimmy inadvertently starts a rumor, having seen his young majesty kissing his secret girlfriend, Miranda, in the throne room, which keeps growing. When the press gets wind of it, the King decides to risk a live TV interview.
