Join host Greg Jenner for a rambunctious romp through 17th century Britain to learn all about Charles II and the restoration of the monarchy.

As well as finding out where to get the best cup of coffee in Restoration London, we\\u2019ll discover why Charles II was known as the Merry Monarch (spoiler - there\\u2019s lots of parties) and how he reacted when Parliament decided to chop off his Dad\\u2019s head.

Join us for a homeschool history lesson on the ultimate King of Bling.

Presented by Greg Jenner\\nProduced by Ben Green\\nScript by Gabby Hutchinson Crouch and Emma Nagouse\\nHistorical consultant: Rebecca Rideal
