Synopsis

'Much of the credit for the striking success of these recordings must go to Kenneth Branagh. Whether it is the Plague or the Fire of London or Pepy's amorous marital and extra-marital activities or his financial affairs, Branagh recounts them with admirable bounce, forthrightness and good humour.'
