How did they get and keep ice for cooking in the Victorian age? In the 19th century, one way of keeping ice was to use an ‘ice-house’. They were usually found near lakes, and would be filled with ice every winter, which stayed cold because it was underground. Some “rich Victorians” kept ice-houses in their grounds. Latter came the invention of the ice maker.( mid 1800’s )
Being set in one's own ways either at the age of 70 or 17 is one thing, but when you're a guest, even if you are an effing English queen, and you are being hosted and are taking advantage of someone's hospitality and incredible costs of catering to your every possible whim, not doing the host an effing 'honour' to actually dine or lunch with them is absolutely scandalous and not worthy of even the worst savage. If I was hosting that... person and she'd have the nerve to announce that to me, I'd told her to either dine with me or with the pigs in the sty on the leftovers from the servants' meal, or get the heck out of my premises, even if it would cost me banition. Goodness gracious, this story calls for a guillotine like few others. I can't watch the remainder of this episode after that, repeatedly hearing about the costs, time and energy spent on preparing the effing soufflet anymore, because the only thing I can concentrate on is the deep regret the British royal family wasn't visiting their Russian cousins when the Bolsheviks finally got their hands on them.
Queen Victoria's inability to get over Albert's death displays weakness. I love these videos but can't stand Victoria. She was just another person. All she did was travel around and eat. Big deal.
The best series ever. I adore these two!
I can’t imagine two such strong women , getting along😬 Love , love these ppl AND this series!

Thank u
Awesome channel. Love all the content even the cooking ones. Thanks for sharing amazing docs.
What a lovely video to bring us back in time. I loved it. That raspberry soufflé looks DELISH !
Interesting as always and a really pleasant finish. Thanks for upload.
It’s safe to say I’m a Victorian living in the second Elizabethan Era ....
Is there a playlist of Upstairs Downstairs? Can't seem to find it on the channel. Would be convenient.

Almost thought this was a miss crocombe video
I love you two. I'm afraid I'm SOLID HOOKED.
Is this a new episode of royal Upstairs Downstairs...?
It’s new to this channel. I’ve seen it before.
@@moniquem783 thanks
How did they make ice back then??
This house looks haunted, even though it's fairly colorful and well lit. The dessert looks wonderful though. Love raspberries.
That's flat, not, sofflee
So why invite the queen to lunch just to have her not eat with you. Why not invite her to dinner? I guess the spoke afterwards.
Spectacular!
The woman sounds like mrs. Rabbit from Peppa Pig
Oh yea😮
Lol😁😂
Let me have a little snort of this
For me it is bit crazy how it is talked about the Queen. Especialy the Tone.
What do you mean?

Perhaps you'd be happier watching something else?
That woman had an emotionally stunted childhood of course she grew up to become an emotionally stunted adult.
