I really wasn't too sure whether or not I was going to enjoy Charles II, but it was great stuff. Rufus Sewell as the eponymous king who comes out of exile to take over his throne.
There seem to have been plenty of mistresses thrown into the mix as well, with all and sundry involved. To begin with, I couldn't help doing my normal thing, and noticing the lack of budget meant that grand scenes had to be filmed very closely - to avoid incurring the costs of hundreds of extras. But the romp-along story got the better of me and I was sucked in.
