Synopsis

The King of Murania is dead!

Long live the King!

But the heir is Nikki, twenty years in exile, and living with actress Marta Karillos, disliked and distrusted by the people.

To ensure a suitable succession, Elena, the Queen Mother, acidly witty and a schemer of genius, persuades Nikki to accept the crown, marry Cristiane - the snow princess from Norseland - and beget an heir as soon as is decently possible.

Nikki agrees, provided his beloved Marta can be installed, in considerable grandeur, not too far from the royal abode.|Large flexible cast
