Who is our greatest monarch, and who is our most interesting? Where should we start - 1066 or 886? Should we include Louis, Matilda, Lady Jane Grey and of course the Cromwells? Which Prime Minister and ruler would make the greatest combination? Iain Dale joins the editor, along with friends of the show Miranda Malins and Steven Veerapen to discuss these questions and more.
