S1 E4: Holkham Hall is a Palladian masterpiece commissioned by Thomas Coke, First Earl of Leicester. It took over 30 years to build. Coke spent years touring Europe and when he returned in 1718, he brought with him works of art, statues and manuscripts that now form a unique, priceless collection. But he had nowhere to put them. So, he built a grand house worthy of his new treasures.
