When Princess Anne ascends to the English throne in 1702, she lifts to royal eminence two of her closest friends, John Churchill, one of the Crown's illustrious soldiers, and his wife Sarah. Anne's childhood friend. Shy and inhibited, Anne had few friends other that the Churchills. In time, they would be accused of running the kingdom for their Queen, who suffered from alcoholism and gout.
