Queen Victoria: a little old lady, spherical in shape, dressed in black, personally grumpy. Right? Historian Lucy Worsley wants to make you think again. Meet a complex, contradictory woman, who had a traumatic childhood, who loved dancing, who sufferedcalamity and bereavement, before coming out the other side as an eccentric, powerful and really rather magnificent old lady. Lucy’s illustrated talk takes you into the life, the palaces, and the rich colourful age of this woman who ruled a quarter of the globe. Running time - 45 mins, 20 mins interval, 45 mins
Run Time: 2hrs 10mins
