Ep 1: A Hard Act to Follow

De: Stephen Fry, John Woolf, Nick Baker

The Queen is dead, long live the King. On the occasion of Edward Vll’s coronation, we look back at his life as spoilt child, curious adolescent and womanizing princely glutton. There’s a bizarre secret behind those early motion pictures of a new and rotund monarch.

Stephen Fry never disappoints

Fascinating look at many aspects of the Edwardian time period. Great for a medium length road trip.
