Rescued from exile by a desperate Parliament, Charles II returns to the throne at the age of 50. As the Plague and the Great Fire brings London to its knees, Charles nurtures the wittiest, most lascivious and decadent court of all time.

A sensitive and promiscuous lover he entertains an array of mistresses including high-born Barbara Villiers; sparky streetwise actress Nell Gwyn and aristocratic French spy Louise de Keroualle. Still traumatised by the execution of his father, Charles is forced to play politics with the Parliament that killed him and proves himself a canny and ruthless politician. Meanwhile, with a lack of legitimate heir, his squabbling family grow ever more frantic.
