Victoria and Albert

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

First shown last year in two episodes, this star-studded drama chronicles the romance between Queen Victoria and her consort, Prince Albert.
The spirited Princess Victoria appears to be the antithesis of her serious German cousin Albert, but a family adviser is convinced a union between the two would be advantageous. Later on, as Albert's love and support for his wife grows, he becomes increasingly frustrated by inactivity.
Written by John Goldsmith
Producer David Cunliffe ; Director John Erman Prince Albert's character is re-assessed in Reputations on Friday at 9pm
