'Who was the unknown casualty? There was no obligation to probe any further, but something more than my curiosity had been aroused....
After Prince Albert's death in 1861 the popular image of Queen Victoria was that of the unsmiling Widow of Windsor. In fact. particularly towards the end of her life, she frequently took delight in a wide variety of entertainment.
Derek Parker introduces a picture of those occasions at Windsor and Osborne, with the help of recordings made by artists who appeared before the Queen, and extracts from her diary and from detailed information preserved by her last Master of the Household, Lord Edward Pelham-Clinton .

In the town they tell the story of the great pearl - how it was found and how it was lost again... As with all re-told tales that are in people's hearts, there are only good and bad things... and no in-between anywhere. If this story is a parable then perhaps everyone takes his own meaning from it and reads his own life into it.
