Anachronisms: Queen Victoria, in the first days of her reign, is having tea with her Prime Minister and they are talking about the death of the Prime Minister's son. The china they are using is the pattern called "Lady Carlyle" made by Royal Albert. This pattern was not available until the 1920s - several years after the Queen's death. moreSoundtrack:

All pictures of Victoria have her as a stern, humorless woman.
This program did manage to shed some light on the real person and quite a bit I did not know.
I was not aware she was the niece of the previous king, thereby not directly in the bloodline, but simply next in line.
I think I had heard she was eighteen when she became queen, but I had forgotten.
And I wasn't aware of the problems with her mother and the uncle on her mother's side.
Sensational when she became her majesty, the Queen of England in their presence and they said no more.
Moments of what it means to be queen and what it means to be married were especially strong here;
when she had to respond to Albert as his wife and not as his queen.
And especially Albert's surprise when the Queen and not his wife honored him for that architectural structure.
I especially enjoyed dear Richard Briers, who never disappoints, as the architect.
When Albert informed him that the Queen had entered, Briers looks up and merely replies 'evening, mum' then continues to beam at his designs.
Her Majesty simply smiled and went to stand with her husband.
Performances were flawless all the way around. I do think Diana Rigg was wasted as the nanny. I've never enjoyed her as an unhappy person, but always in control.
I caught it on A & E, and didn't keep it. Now I wish I had. Ah well.
