Power, greed, religion and sex: historian Dan Jones brings the drama of mediaeval history alivethrough compelling stories, larger-than-life characters and vivid scenes. The third season tells the incredible story of England’s most diabolical ruler. King John makes enemies wherever he goes: from the king of France, to his own barons, and even god himself. But what happens when one of the most powerful people in the world goes totally off the rails?
