The story

The film begins with a narrator telling the viewer that Cromwell's tyranny is coming to an end, as several men approach on horseback. King Charles II and several of his Cavaliers have been on an exploratory tour in England, checking to see if the populace is ready to back his return, and the king is being hounded by a troop of Roundheads. King Charles stops to bid one of his supporters, a Royalist Lord Lucius Vyne (Hugh Grant), who he gives one of his favorite rings, telling Lucius to send it if he ever needs his help.
