 |  | | | Queen Caroline: The Rebel Queen | 12 June 2006 | |  |
In 1820, Queen Caroline was put on trial by her husband George IV, charged with adultery. It caused a nation-wide sensation, mobilising the radical elements of the country and filling endless column inches in both the national and local press – the first media-generated celebrity scandal.
The author of a new biography of Queen Caroline, Jane Robins, joins Ritula Shah to re-assess this reckless, vulgar yet ultimately courageous member of the Royal Family.
