The year is 1667. King Louis XIV (George Blagden) of France is 28 and finally in sole command of his kingdom. Haunted by childhood memories of a bitter coup against his father, he commissions the most beautiful palace in Europe, Versailles. The nobles crave entry to this lavish château, not realising that its purpose is to imprison and control them. One of Louis' prime targets is his younger brother, Monsieur, an effeminate dandy and formidable warrior. The court is also a battleground for love as Louis' queen, Marie Therese, fights to tame his wandering eye. Can she win back his heart from his mistress, the sister of the King of England? Welcome to a world of power and betrayal, love, lust and declarations of war, where courtiers battle for the King's favour. This is Versailles in all its brutal glory. (BBC)
