Under the Sun: Becoming the King

on BBC Two England

Newly crowned King Letsie III of Lesotho is under pressure to get married and produce an heir to the throne, but like many men in their thirties he is loath to make a commitment.

This special edition of the documentary strand charts his turbulent first year as king as he tries to find a woman he both likes and who will make a good queen, and also faces political crisis and the prospect of invasion.
