Been watching loads of documenataries on the BBC iPlayer.
Watched a doc called, "Versailles: The Dream of a King" and how King Louis XIV influenced the expansion of the Palace of Versailles from a simple hunting chateau owned by his father to become a grand impressive palace. Also, on his character as well, apparently was quite impressive in bed and even suffered an anal fistula.
Now watching the 4 episodes of "If Walls Could Talk: The History of the Home" where Doctor Lucy Worsley (a Historian) talks about the evolution of rooms (bedroom, kitchen, living room and bathroom) from middle ages to present day. Awesome documentaries. Learnt the origins of many terms like, "Making the bed", "Hitting the sack", "Sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite", also learnt the lighting of bundles of sticks (word beginning the letter F) and that one would prelight the oven with a smaller bunch of sticks called, pimps. So Pimps and F., which was rather amusing.
