I'm in England, going back and forth between later in Elizabeth I's reign and in the past of her reign. Also in modern day New York, but off to Italy soon.

I'm in a Japanese POW interrogation camp (Ofuna) after surviving over 40 days in a raft at sea. It's 1943.

London, just after Charles I's execution.

And also the Cotswolds, and Sussex, in the present day, and I've just been kidnapped in Barcelona!

Now in London but in two different time zones!

Elizabethan in "Martyr".

Between the two Charles in "Passion".
