03 of 03 20100228 John, By the Grace of God
The story of the fourth son of Henry II, who never expected to succeed to the crown and was famously given no territories of his own. When he does, he reveals a talent for making enemies. His reign was characterised by French wars and disputes with the Pope. The European wars culminated in defeat at the Battle of Bouvines, which forced the king to accept an unfavourable peace with France. This finally turned the barons against him and he met their leaders at Runnymede, near London on 15 June 1215.
