King Edward VII has always been an enigma. Twentieth-century dynasty builder and sex addict; dyslexic dunce and astute political operator;boorish philistine and civilised cosmopolitan - he was all of these. Using extensive new research, Edward VII - Prince of Pleasure unravels the mystery of this thoroughly modern monarch and shows that his legacy is still very relevant today.

  • The picture painted of Edward in this part isn't accurate.By the time Victoria died Edward was already regarded as a statesman and ambassador for Britain. In 1894 he single handedly took charge of the funeral arrangements for Alexander II in Moscow and gave essential advice and support to Nicholas II during his coronation.

    The press in both countries praised him highly and relationships with Russia became better than they had been for 50 years.
