Brenda comes back from shopping glowing. She stopped at a gatukök for a Swedish hot dog — a varmkorv — and met a lovely, shy Swedish policeman. She felt a bit wild, so she's invited him to dinner in the cabin tomorrow. The lads slowly realise, with mounting horror, that Mam's new gentleman is Johansson — the very copper they conned last episode.
Tonight's history (all true):
- Queen Christina — daughter of Gustav II Adolf (the real Lion of the North), crowned at five, raised as a prince, brilliant and contrary.
- - She summoned Descartes for 5 a.m. philosophy lessons in the freezing winter — and he was dead of pneumonia within four months.
- - She refused to marry, and on 6 June 1654 (the same date they made Gustav Vasa king) she abdicated the throne, converted to Catholicism, and rode off across Europe to Rome — dressed as a man — to live exactly as she pleased.
...with two original punk tracks: "The Girl King" and "Walk Away".
