Overview

Having recently broken a collarbone after falling from a horse, the Prince of Wales (later Edward VIII) returns to royal duty at White Hart Lane. He’s there to witness Tottenham play Oxford, and greets officials outside the ground before shaking hands – awkwardly, and left-handed – with the players before the game.
