Spanning sixty years in the reign of Queen Victoria, from 1837 to 1897, 'Victoria The Great' vividly portrays the overwhelming influence the Queen had over her subjects, country and empire.
Together, Queen Victoria and Prince Albert struggled for the betterment of Britain against political self-interest and greed in parliament and helped to build an empire the likes of which the world had ever known.
It took Albert's death to break the Queen's seemingly indomitable spirit and for a decade it seemed as if Britain was without a monarch, but Victoria gathered her strength and returned to the throne greater and more magisterial than ever...
