Robert Walpole, once imprisoned for financial chicanery, assumes political control and becomes 'Prime Minister'. He is dismissed in 1727 on the death of George I, recruits the new King's clever wife, Caroline, and bounces cheerfully back. Coarse, corrupt and cynical, Walpole dominates King, Parliament and Government until 1742.
