Just after the Black Death, the character and nature of the rule of King Edward III changed… and suddenly the nation around London began to sow the seeds of a profound alteration of its very essence. This weeks episodes ranges far and away from our city, covering events in France, and in the royal court, but focuses on how after the plague Edward began to change the very fabric of the city. From a bevvy of new royal buildings both in and around London, to the building of the first version of Big Ben- a huge tower in Westminster that rang out the hours for the next few centuries. And on top of this? The reason behind the wildest and most glorious celebration London had seen in decades.
