Jacobi’s appearance in “The King’s Speech” was a lovely touch in recognition of that role. It is also worth noting that Michael Palin, famous for “Monty Python’s Flying Circus,” did appear in “A Fish Called Wanda,” which is cited as a negative portrayal [of stuttering]. Palin’s father was a severe “stammerer,” and Palin has helped to found the Michael Palin Centre for Stammering Children in England. Perhaps that was not such a negative portrayal after all.
