language
There is occasional use of strong language ('f**k'). The uses occur in two isolated outbursts as part of a technique encouraged by a therapist designed to ease the effects of a man's speech impediment.
additional issues
There are frequent scenes of smoking, partly due to erroneous medical advice relating to the treatment of speech impediments. The smoking is not shown to be glamorous or advisable.

violence
There is a brief reference to Nazi atrocities but no visuals of this.
language
The film includes two brief outbursts of swearing, which include multiple uses of strong language ('f**k').

sex
There are some undetailed sex references, including a reference to a brothel and a reference to sleeping with other men's wives.
injury detail
King George V is seen lying dead in his bed.
alcohol and smoking
Smoking is shown, reflecting the period in which the film is set. There is also some alcohol drinking by adults.
