Episode Synopsis
Westminster, home of the government man! It’s Sunday 15th January 1559 and Elizabeth Tudor is getting a crown done. After that she’s popping down the Abbey to be made Queen. It’s going to be an amazing day. What makes it even more amazing is that, both in the dentist’s chair and in the Abbey, the individual being crowned is not actually Elizabeth Tudor at all. God save the Queen, because tourists are money, but our figurehead is not what she seems. It’s time to find out the part that Derek played.
