Dr Janina Ramirez unlocks the secrets of illuminated manuscripts that were custom-made for kings and explores the medieval world they reveal. Part 1: Ruling by the Book Janina begins her journey with the first Anglo-Saxon rulers to create a united England, encountering books in the British Library's Royal manuscripts collection which are over a thousand years old and a royal family tree which is five metres long. Janina finds out about a king who had a reputation for chasing nuns and reads a book created as a wedding gift for a ten-year-old prince. She roams from Westminster Abbey to other ancient English spiritual sites such as Winchester, St Albans and Malmesbury, and sees for herself how animal skins can be transformed into the finest vellum. Part 2: What a King Should Know Janina shows how medieval manuscripts gave power to the king and united the kingdom in an age of plague, warfare and rebellion, discovers that Edward III used the manuscripts he read as a boy to prepare him for his great victory at the battle of Crecy and reveals how a vigorous new national identity bloomed during the 100 Years War with France. In the British Library's Royal Manuscripts collection Dr Ramirez finds out that magnificent manuscripts like the Bedford Hours, taken as war booty from the French royal family, were adapted for the education of English princes. She also explores how knowledge spread through a new form of book - the encyclopaedia. Part 3: Libraries Gave Us Power The story of the British Library's Royal Manuscripts collection reaches its end with the last great flowering of illumination, in the magnificent courts of the Tudors. She investigates astrological texts created for Henry VII, and unwraps his will - still in its original, extravagantly-decorated velvet and gold cover. She hears music written for Henry VIII, which went unperformed for centuries| and reads love notes between the king and Anne Boleyn, written in the margins of a prayer book. Nina also visits Bruges, the source of many of the greatest manuscripts, where this medieval art form collided with the artistic innovations of the Renaissance. （转自mvgroup论坛）。曾经叱咤风云的LIONS车队在领队老申（林庆台饰）过世后逐渐走向没落，不甘愿退休的过气车王李一飞（范逸臣饰）与他的新搭档，联盟历史上第一个女车手吕莉莉（昆凌饰）相处得并不融洽，两人互不相让，令车队的处境雪上加霜。不被人看好的二代新领队阿申（柯有伦饰），不得已只好把希望寄托在一个只会玩模拟器赛车的宅男杜杰克（曹佑宁饰）身上。没有实战经验的杜杰克并不具备参加比赛的实力，但为了追赶自己喜欢的莉莉，他不断努力与成长。车王李一飞面对自己的赛车成绩和家人的牵挂，最终认清事实，决定退居幕后，让莉莉与杜杰克组成搭档。当一切即将步入正轨时，新的矛盾却诞生了。LIONS车队外有强大的对手宋杰（高英轩饰），内有亟需解决的误会与冲突。在激战的赛场上，他们重新找回初心，再次叱咤风云。。
