I wish I was a historian on the Victorian monarchy. I would always be gainfully employed by various television companies as a talking head.
The same old faces A N Wilson, Matthew Sweet show up telling the same old stories about Victoria and Albert. I actually wondered how they kept up their enthusiasm. I reckon it must be the sound of the kerching!
Victoria & Albert: The Royal Wedding should had been subtitled scraping the bottom of the history barrel.
Historian Lucy Worsley reconstructs Queen Victoria's wedding to Prince Albert on 10 February 1840 over a mind numbing 90 minutes. They go through her dress, apparently Victoria made the white wedding dress popular. She talks about who would give Victoria away, the food, the cake (bits of it still comes up on auction) and the people who attended the wedding.
I tried to stay interested but it really was a losing battle. Maybe I have seen too many historical documentaries on Queen Victoria and just felt jaded or doubtful about how accurate it all was.
