Dizzy and the Faery Queen

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

A political romance by NEVILLE TELLER to mark the centenary of the death of Disraeli in April 1881 starring with 'To the dear and honoured memory of Benjamin, Earl of Beaconsfield, this memorial is placed, by his grateful Sovereign and Friend, Victoria RI , 27 July 1882.'
Was a more explicit statement of personal regard for a subject ever openly declared by a reigning monarch? This programme traces the extraordinary turn of events that led the second child of a scholarly Jewish recluse to so secure a place in the affections of Queen Victoria.
