We went to a little alehouse on the Bankside and there stayed till it was dark almost and saw the fire grow, and as it grow darker appeared more and more, and in corners and upon steeples and between churches and houses, as far as we could see up the hill of the City, in a most horrid malicious bloody flame....
The Great Fire of 1666 was one of the most calamitous events in the history of London. The fire destroyed four-fifths of the city and 100,000 people were made homeless. Samuel Pepys was an eyewitness, as he was of so many other historic events of his day.
In this adaptation of volumes 6 and 7 in the new definitive edition of the Diary we see the private and the public Pepys during the momentous years of the Plague, the Great Fire and the Naval War with the Dutch. with Michael Hordern as Samuel Pepys
