A synopsis reads:

It is 2120 and London is in ruins.

The young Prince Alfred has never known a life outside Buckingham Palace – but when strange goings-on breach its walls and stalk the corridors in the dead of night, he is thrust into a world of mystery, adventure and monsters.

And when his mother, the Queen, is dragged away to the Tower of London, Alfred must screw up his courage and battle to save her, himself… and the entire city.

In a future of myths and legends, join the bestselling David Walliams and venture forth into his most enthralling tale yet!

As the book is released, David joins Jonathan Ross tonight on ITV tonight (Saturday 23 November at 10:10PM).

On the show, he spoke to Jonathan about recently working with Little Britain co-star, Matt Lucas, again.

On reuniting with his comedy co-star, Matt Lucas, David said: “We did a Radio 4 special called Little Brexit so we had all the existing characters but all the sketches had a Brexit theme to it. It was great because it gave us something to write about… We had great fun doing it, we got Tony Head and Ruth Jones back.

“It was a total surprise because the audience who came didn’t even know what they were coming to see… It was great so hopefully we’ll be doing some more things together. We might do [another TV series together] we were talking about it just today, Jonathan.

“But we don’t know for sure exactly what we want to do, whether we want to revisit things from the past or we want to do something totally new.”
