520 |a For the 350th anniversary of the Great Fire of London, this special looks at the disaster and the events that surrounded it. On the night of September 2nd 1666, a spark from a baker's oven in Pudding Lane ignited a fire which roared through the tightly packed streets of London, tearing up the timber framed houses and destroying up to a third of the city. In true Horrible Histories fashion, this episode explores London and Britain before the fire, full of plague and party in the raucous Restoration atmosphere personified by King Charles II. Learn how London's Mayor preferred to stay in bed during the fire because he'd been partying the night before, and how Samuel Pepys rushed to bury his parmesan cheese for safety. Meet Christopher Wren, astronomer and self-styled architect and see how his new St Paul's Cathedral, which rose from the ashes, was a physical manifestation of the ideas of the age.
