In 16th-century London, a pauper named Tom Canty is forced by his cruel father to steal five shillings. While attempting to do so, Tom is mistaken for a thief, leading to a chase through the streets of London.
Tom finds himself in the palace garden in front of King Henry VIII after escaping the angry mob. The King sets his guards on Tom, who cleverly outwits them by hiding in a chimney.
Meanwhile, Edward, Prince of Wales, meets Tom and decides they should swap appearances to attend a masked ball. The Duke of Norfolk, mistaking Edward for Tom, orders his removal from the palace.
Edward, along with Sir Miles Hendon, embarks on a journey to restore honour to those in need. Through challenges and hardships, Edward proves his true identity and rightful place as King.
On the day of the coronation, Edward and Miles face obstacles but ultimately succeed in revealing the truth. Edward takes his place as King, while Tom is appointed Governor of Christ’s Hospital.
