Edward II achieved the unique feat in English history of losing a battle to the Scots, at Bannockburn. Then he invented the handkerchief, became 'close' to his handsome young favourite, got deposed by his wife and her lover, invented disco dancing, established colleges at Oxford and Cambridge Universities and at the University of East Anglia and got murdered making him one of England's most exciting monarchs.
