Favourite "substitute king" story?
After re-reading A Prisoner of Zenda/Rupert of Hentzau recently, along with Double Star by Heinlein and The Star Kings by Edmond Hamilton, I'm in the mood for more swashbuckling stories of a ruler replaced by an unwilling double.

What are your favourites?

(edit: and of course I've read The Mad King by ERB but not recently...)
