It’s known as ‘the most rebellious corner of England’. In this absorbing history documentary, Tony Robinson hikes from Lyme Regis to the Somerset Levels in the west of England, in the footsteps of a rebel army led by the illegitimate son of Charles II in 1685. He looks back at the Duke of Monmouth's attempt to overthrow the British monarchy and the brutal reprisals after the rebellion failed.
