What fun we had doing these.

Look at this one.

How young you look, Albert.

Well, that was

before I was the father to...

seven children.

That's you when you
were a baby, Vicky.

Who's that nursemaid holding me?

That's me, silly!

Oh, Vicky is right,

you don't look like a queen at all.

Of course I don't.

Mama, look,

Bertie is trying to put a
marble up Affie's nose.

Affie, stay still.

Right.

Bertie.

Bertie?

Do you wish to hurt your brother?

It's an experiment, Papa.

Ah-ah.Bertie, leave your
brother alone at once!

Sit over there, Bertie.

Sit!

Vicky,

I want you take your brothers

and sisters back to the nursery,

your mama's not feeling very well.

Is the new baby
making her feel cross?

I don't understand why
she keeps getting them.

I'm sure she'll feel better soon.

There's absolutely nothing
wrong with me.

The new coin would be
worth a tenth of a pound.

It is a step towards introducing

a modern decimal system.

Ah, well, we have ten fingers after all.

Seems like the most logical system.

Yes, but there's something so irritating

about the decimal point.

12 is a number that likes
to be divided. Ten isn't.

Yes, but the decimal system

works perfectly well
on the Continent.

Perhaps they're better
at long division.

A new coin

deserves a new image.

It is an opportunity to
put something beautiful

in the pocket of the people.

I would like to have
a hand in its design,

if I may?

Certainly, sir.

And what do you think we
should call the new coin?

Totally unnecessary.

Ah, Uncle Leopold.

You have arrived just in time.

That is my specialty.

We need a name

for the new decimal coin.

In Europe we would call it a florin.

Excellent suggestion, Your Majesty.

A name that works both
at home and abroad.

Uncle Leopold, let me
present my prime minister.

And this is my...

foreign secretary.

Oh, Lord Palmerston needs
no introduction.

I am delighted to have made such
an impression, Your Majesty.

First you undermine my authority,

then you are insolent to King Leopold.

No one is indispensable!

No, indeed, prime minister.

One day you will go too far.

And then I will be the one

with the idiotic grin on my face.

Your Serene Highness,
what an unexpected pleasure.

Official business?

There is to be a ball
for the christening,

in the fashions of the last century.

Will I valuable enough to
receive an invitation, I wonder?

That remains to be seen.

Invites are for valuable
member of society.

All I ask is that you look at me,

like you did in Ireland.

I may be wearing livery,
but I am the same man.

Nothing has changed.

Exactly, I'm still married.

To a man who's not worthy of you.

Would you like me to arrange

for an oil lamp by
the piano, Your Grace,

if there's not enough light?

I'm worried that Joseph
here might spill...

wax on you.

How like your dear father you are,

my dear.

Bertie.

Make a bow to Uncle Leopold.

Oh, it is a mouse.

And the Prince of Wales, however,

takes after the other side of the family.

Yes, that is what I always say.

Bertie is a Hanoverian.

Uncle.

Don't you recognize Feodora?

Uh...

Why, she practically lives next door to you.

Feodora, of course.

What an unexpected pleasure
to see you here, Duchess.

I know how busy you are at the palace.

The queen has been...

out of sorts since the birth.

She likes to have me on hand,
and I can hardly refuse.

Indeed.

How pleasant for you, my dear,
to have such powerful friends.

Ah, of course, you are right
at the center of things.

The prime minister and
Lord Palmerston are always

at the palace, are they not?

Yes, they do come and go, rather.

Hmm.

Well, I, I have been
giving some thought

to your costume for the christening.

You have?

I think you should go
as my grandmother,

the ninth duchess.

She was painted by Gainsborough.

I have a, a miniature here.

Oh, she's lovely.

Sold.

Like so many things.

Until you restored

go the same way

as France, but...

well, it seems that the English,
they may grumble,

but they do not come to the boil.

Mm-hmm.

It is the weather, I think.

It is hard to lead
a revolution in the rain.

I am so proud of you, Albert.

Well, I had a good teacher.

Ah,

Bertie get back to bed at once.

I can't get to sleep without my mouse,

anywhere.

Oh, there you are Bertie.
Oh, what a child.

I have been looking for
him everywhere. Come on.

I want my mouse.

Then come with me.

I have it safe.

Feodora,

you are like the pied piper.

You cannot imagine, Uncle,

how fortunate we have been to
have Feodora here as of late.

No, no matter what I do,

Bertie will be my legacy.

I love him so very much,

He is your son.

He will not disappoint.

I am going to cancel the ball.

I won't have them...

Victoria, I know this is...

a difficult time

It's easy for you to say,
no one is laughing at you.

Well, on the contrary,

laughing at me, it is a...

a national pastime.

I was... I was so looking forward

to starting my, my duties again,

now what are people going to see?

They are going to see a woman.

Not a queen.As...

As Feodora said, it will pass.

Hmm.

I must thank you for the
invitation to the ball.

Mrs. Hudson is most grateful,
Your Serene Highness.

I am used to the rough and tumble,

but she...

well, she feels the lack of society

most keenly.

I'll take my leave.

I seem to have scared Mr. Hudson off.

You do know the man's a swindler?

He even sold empty railway
shares to his valet.

I'm surprised to see you
riding with one another.

I am surprised you're not at the palace

with the prime minister.

Well, I did offer,
but the prime minister thought

he could manage better alone.

And I am sure he's right.

But it would be very inconvenient

if they discovered a common enemy.

It's a mighty fine bay you have there.

Must have cost a pretty penny.

Royal stable?

It belongs to me, actually.

Ah.

A gift, perhaps,

from one of your many admirers.

Is your wife coming
to the ball, I wonder?

She doesn't like the
hurly-burly of politics.

Ah. Pity.

A man like you needs an ally.

I am not sure

it is a criminal matter, ma'am.

The printer has sold
impressions of your etchings,

but that in itself is not illegal.

You asked him to make prints.

The only recourse is
to sue for damages.

Damages?

To your reputation, ma'am.

Lord John, my dignity
does not have a price.

Quite so, which is why legal action

But...

There must be something we can do.

I understand your distress...

Distress? Lord John,
it is more than distress,

it is treason.

I am not sure that a judge
would agree with you.

They are, after all,

family scenes.

What do you suggest?

Regrettably, there is nothing
you can do

except perhaps to choose
your printer with more care.

Are you suggesting this
debacle is our fault?

Oh, no, ma'am, it's just that...

This audience is at
an end, Prime Minister.

Mousey, mousey.

Do you want to go in?

Do you like your new house?

Bertie?

Why are you not in lessons?

I was bored.Yes, well,

sometimes in life we have to
do things we do not wish to do.

Then I hope Mama dies soon,

Bertie is so like Drina at that age.

Makes me wonder if
his temper is congenital.

Of course, I know nothing

here looking like this?

Monarchy needs to

evidence of her unsuitability.

Yes.

But on coins, the monarch

But you are the exception, Victoria,

in so many ways.

What are you wearing
to the ball, Sophie?

I am sworn to secrecy, ma'am.

You can't have any secrets from me.

I am going as the ninth
Duchess of Monmouth,

after the Gainsborough portrait.

it was, um, my husband's idea.

The ninth duchess,

wasn't there some story

about her?

I suppose it's nice that the
duke takes such an interest.

I suppose so, ma'am.

Well, at least I look like a queen

in this.

Oh, those terrible pictures.

Ooh.

If you feel you can't
face the world, Drina,

I am sure Albert and I could manage.

Oh, I am sure you would
like nothing more

than to announce to the world
I'm unable to fulfill my duties.

I'm only trying to support you, Drina.

Your Grace.

I overheard he wants
you to go to the ball

dressed as the ninth duchess.

You see, she was a Cavendish,

so we knew all about
her at Chatsworth.

Her marriage was miserable,
and she took a lover.

When the duke found out,
he divorced her

and took her children away.

And she took her own life.

I thought you should know, Sophie.

I think your husband
intends to humiliate you.

Oh.

Oh, I didn't mean to disturb you,
Your-Your Majesty.

When I first came to the throne...

they used to call me a little girl.

And now...

now they will call me a...

what will they call me?

A nursemaid.

No queen has ever had a
baby whilst on the throne.

I've had seven.

Seven.

No.

No, they...

I can hear them.

I don't know who "they" are, ma'am,

The skull is the landscape of character.

Fascinating.

Really is such a good

Feodora.

Bertie, come on up here

so that, uh,

Mr. Coombe may examine you.

Bertie, behave yourself.

Otherwise I will send your mouse

to the taxidermist.The what?

The prince's anterior lobe,

while the lobes of combativeness,

destructiveness and self-esteem,

Late King George,

I believe had the
same feebleness of mind.

Bertie may be willful

but he is not mad.

Do you think there is
any hope of improvement?

Oh, the cranium never lies, sir.

He cannot help his temper,

it's all part of his character.

Hmm!

Bertie, apologize to Mr. Coombe

for your carelessness.Uh-uh.

Bertie, do as I say!

I won't, and you can't make me.

You don't want that horrible
Mr. Cain to come back.

Do you?Sorry!

Oh, Bertie come back.

Come back, Bertie.

So what are we supposed to do, hmm?

Put him in a straightjacket?

Victoria, why do you
always have to exaggerate?

Bertie was fine, until Feodora arrived.

That is beneath you.

Feodora has done nothing but good

for this family.
Has she? Has she indeed?

Perhaps you should ask her

if she knows anything about the etchings.

What is that supposed to mean?

Lord Alfred said she had a new horse.

I didn't buy it for her.

You think she would betray you

for a horse?

Victoria, please,

exercise a little reason.

Feodora is your sister,
she's not your enemy.

No, Albert, I don't need a lobe of logic

to understand that Feodora
can be a sister and an enemy.

Hmm.

Oh, these costumes are ridiculous.

Oh, of course.

Now that Mr. Coombe

King George and Bertie,

I suppose wearing
costumes from his reign

is rather... unfortunate.

There is no connection.

Mr. Coombe is a charlatan.

That's hardly surprising,

Since you made me leave
England to get married.

You had no dowry to speak of,

we did the best we could.

You did the best for Victoria,
not for me.

Naturally, she was the heir

And I was an... inconvenience.

It was so long ago.

Not for me.

Where has that hobbledehoy
Joseph disappeared to?

You see that couple?

It would be hard to miss them,

ma'am.

Who are they?

Why do they keep
looking at me like that?

George Hudson, ma'am.

The swindler?

This is madness.

Not from where I stand.

I must go back.

The Duke.

Before you go.

Where the blazes have you been?!

Answering a call of nature, sir.

Victoria, do you not think

that Feodora has done such

a marvelous job of organizing the ball?

Oh, well, her ingenuity,

especially when it
comes to the invitations,

is unparalleled.

What on earth do you mean?

These, these, these are your guests.

Well, they have been invited
in my name, certainly.

But without my knowledge or consent.

Who, for example,

is that peculiar-looking
gentleman over there?

The one actually taking off his coat?

Why is he here?

I invited him.

His name is Elkington,

and he is a celebrated inventor.

I would thank you
for pointing him out,

I must talk with him.

Well, he may be your friend, Albert,

but what about that couple over there?

The swindler and his overdressed wife.

Perhaps you will tell me
why the Hudsons are here.

The Hudsons?

You can't expect me to remember

all the names on the list.

Then I will ask them myself.

No, I...

I believe that would be
beneath your dignity, Drina.

The behavior of, of a washerwoman,

not a queen.

So this is your reward.

Oh, well, at least you
didn't sell them cheap.

Feo, you have made me look ridiculous.

Oh, I think that it is all
your own doing, Drina.

You hate me.

You hate me, don't you?

Nothing has been right, Feo.

Nothing has been right
since you came here!

I know you would like nothing better

than to turn Albert against me.

I don't understand why.

I have always done my best for you.

Your best for me?

Do you know

the last time I remember being happy?

It was when we lived at Kensington,

and the old king asked
me here to the palace.

I played Bach,

and he told me I had the prettiest profile

he had ever seen.

And he was going to
ask Mama for my hand.

Oh, Feo.

You? Marry that fat old man!

He could barely stand up.

But I would have been queen.

That was not Mama's plan.

Or Leopold's, no.

They wanted you to be queen, not me.

So they sent me away,

marry the first man who would have me.

That wasn't my fault.

First the etchings,

Rest assured, ma'am,

we will make sure that
this error is corrected.

Corrected, it's too late.
The damage has been done.

May I speak frankly, ma'am?

You don't usually ask my permission

before telling me something
I don't want to hear.

I think these pictures have
done you the power of good.

Oh, what on earth

do you mean?

This cost me a shilling.

Do you think the people
are buying these

in order to laugh at them?

Every time you have a child,
the nation rejoices, ma'am,

but they also wonder how
much your burgeoning family

is going to cost them.

You did say I could speak frankly.

These etchings,

these trivial domestic scenes,

they remind your subjects

that you are not some remote,
Olympian being,

but rather a woman
who bathes her children

and loves her dogs.

And that's...

desirable?

Do you want me to tell you the secret

to my popularity, ma'am?

I am a viscount, but when
the people see me

at the races, or at a prize fight,

they just see a fellow
who likes a flutter...

just as they do.

And you don't think that
familiarity breeds contempt?

Is this familiar

to your subjects, ma'am?

But a baby and a dog,

that they understand.

You may be right.

But the coin, the coin is unforgivable.

Who is responsible?

I'm asking you, Prime Minister,
who is responsible?

If you remember, ma'am,

the prince took responsibility

for the design of the florin.

It would be most unfortunate

were his involvement to become known,

especially now he is suing
the printer of the etchings.

Perhaps we should

leave Her Majesty

Will that be all, ma'am?

I assumed we wanted the
same thing, Victoria.

Actually, I have changed my mind.

Lord Pam says the pictures

When did you start

The issue is not whether

it is whether you are respected.

Look at that.

Where is the inscription that says

I am queen through the grace of God?

You could not fit it on,
because of the crown.

You wanted the crown.

Because I wanted to look like a queen,

my own husband doesn't think

the fact that I have
been anointed by God...

Do you not see that you are
contradicting yourself?

The etchings they lower you down

I'm afraid Feodora was

just a pawn in that game.

You know, she blames me.

She wants to have her revenge.

Revenge?

Oh, you exaggerate, Victoria.

What could a penniless
German princess possibly do

to hurt the Queen of England?

It is true.No.

I never thought of that.

You know my sister

was selling invitations to the ball?

Well, I asked her to
invite a variety of guests.

If they sent her gifts,

that can only be expected.

People send you things all the time.

Mmm.

Why do you begrudge her the
crumbs from your table?

I think it's time you went home.

Well, I think your husband
would be sorry to see me go.

He so enjoys having someone
rational to talk to.

She hates me, Albert.
Is it because

she treats you as a sister

Oh... I...

Victoria, I think

your intellect is overtaxed.

You're saying I'm mad?

Is that it, Albert?
Is that what you're saying?

No. No. No.
I'm saying, like Bertie,

I think your character's been overdeveloped

in the area of self-esteem.

That's enough.

No, I have expected you to be something

Victoria, a rational woman.

But now I, I realize my mistake.

How can you be so cold?

It is the only way that I
can deal with your temper.

I have no desire to descend to your level.

My level!
