http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b052hrdd

Ben Robinson retraces the dramatic last days of King John, England's
most
disastrous monarch, and uncovers the legend of his lost treasure.

Ten days took King John from ruler of an empire to sudden death, and
left the
kingdom in ruins. John is famous for the creation of Magna Carta,
which
inspired our modern democracy.

Ben follows in the footsteps of the King's epic last journey, from the
treacherous marshes of East Anglia, through Lincolnshire and
Nottinghamshire,
to his final resting place in Worcester. He is joined by medieval
historian
professor Stephen Church.

Together they examine the truth behind the legend that has lived on
for 800
years. Did the crown jewels really end up in the mud of the Wash? Was
the King
poisoned? Does he deserve his reputation as our most disastrous
monarch?

Thanks to unique documents, we can tell this epic tale in the King's
own words.
Not only can we get into the mind of the Magna Carta King, we can
reveal in
fantastic detail how and where he travelled.

Ben reveals what happened when treasure seekers attempted to find the
King's
lost jewels with the help of a diviner. And using the latest
technology reveals
how we can actually see back in time to reveal the landscape as it
would have
looked when King John made his last journey 800 years ago.
