What does it take to become a royal favourite?

In episode one we climb under the sheets and into the arms of the first Stuart King of England, James I and VI of Scotland. We’ll find out what made George Villiers stand out from the crowd and remain at the pinnacle of 17th century society and the top of James’ favourite list. Kate will be walking in George’s footsteps and investigating how to catch the king's eye, fight your way to the top...and stay there!
