- Rosemary finds out what the food bill for such a visit would cost as she delves into accounts below stairs, including a 96-stone ox barbecued in the grounds for the estate workers. With chef and food historian Ivan Day, she recreates an amazing multilayered raised game pie, cooked in a mould based on the design of a corset and served to Victoria and Albert on the last night of their stay.
From Elizabeth II to Cleopatra, Real Royalty peels back the curtain to give a glimpse into the lives of some of the most influential families in the world, with new full length documentaries posted every week covering the monarchies of today and all throughout history.

I believe Mrs. Crocombe would heartily approve of the MEAT pie.
LoL😂🤣😂🤣💐
S. T. Yes, this brings back a pigeon pie vibe 😂
Yesss 😂😂😂
its missing the chicken feet

Found my people in the comments! 😂 I just made the butter with herbs tonight (I used a mixer, so it wasn’t quite the Victoria way lol!) & it’s delicious!
I love Rosemary’s enthusiasm, she always looks earnestly overjoyed to encounter history! And I like the way she tucks her blouse. This was also my favorite of Tim’s suits.
@@Locutus-White6 A lot of the girth is the bust. My family are this body build. If she were thinner, her cups would still runneth over. I did not get that gift lol.
@@Locutus-White6
It would throw doubt on her enthusiasm for fine cuisines, I think she’s perfect the way she is delightful and ever joyous.
My mom and I watch this show together and its our absolute favorite thing to do! I never want this series to end and if it does please start over with something new!
It ended about 8 years ago
@@dawnharley9889 😂 I'm sorry but this cracked me up 😂
I love this series and I absolutely adore Rosemary and Tim such a great energy between the two of them, and such a shame that Rosemary’s husband passed away cuz of covid.
Isn't she a lesbiann
keNo t
No, she has a husband and children.
Poor Rosemary! She is so sweet.
Just because she had a husband & kids doesn't mean she ain't a lesbian
That was her mother. Her husband, far as I can say, died from natural causes.
The pie moulds are beautiful. I love how the royal chefs made food look as gorgeous as it probably tasted.
it's ancient white people food, from someone with a white mom, they aren't know for their cooking lmaoooo. i can almost guarantee in comparison to what we have now it's trash.
It was bland. Lol that's why it's so pretty they had to impress somehow and the food was typically very bland or extremely herbal but not very flavorful. So they decorated and garnished everything.
@@christinat2398 So what exactly is white people food? Norwegian? German? English? French? They all have pretty epic food people still love. Or do you mean boring modern food that is processed, nasty, and tasteless? That isn't white people cooking, that is modern processed crap. Modern processed crap isn't cooking and tastes bad in every country.
@@chloelawrence3394 Not true or historically accurate. Medieval English cooks used tons of spices, sugar, and fancy salts. Bland food was only for the extremely poor or the poorly trained home cook.
@@meow5670 hi friend, noted 👍🏼. the chef definitely wouldn't have been a medieval chef however. Queen Victoria was not living in medieval times. She was born in 1819.
Jesus its early morning and I want to eat that pie
I’m starving
This series make me so happy. People really took pride in their food and it's beautiful.
And to think this was in the middle of the Potato Famine. Unbelievable.
shes not bothered about the Irishs and their potatos ,,lol
Sickening. Millions of people starved, while the English imported food from Ireland to fatten themselves with.
Yuck. Monarchs are fascinating but also disgusting
No wonder she was big as a house, so wasteful.
Oh gosh this was at the same time wasn’t it?!
This American is addicted to hearing about Victoria and Albert!
This American is addicted to this show !!
About me!?
Thank you, I really enjoy watching this series.
I love how he says tell me about it! So sweet!
I love those molds I have had the honor to use them a few times in my career but with those meats I used aspect so excited to see them on here
Rosemary's energy for the pie is the same energy Japanese school girls have for anything cute and it is the most life affirming thing ever.
What a great presentation! Thank you.
18 years at a job and just got sacked my self. Absolutely iconic
Wonderful. Thanks for sharing
I LOVE the story about Elizabeth I's oak tree ... a great reminder that the world (and nature) keep on turning at their own pace regardless of the ebbs and flows of petty human history.
Thanks for this wonderful documentary
I'm an American with an Irish and UK ancestry and I'm OBSESSED with these videos they are soooo interested
excellent episode, keep more coming
That pie was a work of art and I'm sure it was delicious, though it would be impossible to make this today in an ordinary kitchen. It was incredible .
I live not far from Hatfield house, and I've been there just once ,and that was a junior school trip.
I love this series!
American here and I'm a bit of a great fan of British history. I adore this series!
Beautiful history with beautiful food. I want to make one. I can only imagine how many were made for the big night. It’s quite a process to make a meat pie. The results are beautiful.
Love all your vidoes!
I'm adopting "Sero sed serio" as my motto!
Mine would be 'squeaking in in the nick of time ... but earnest', which sounds more like how this visit went as well. Can anyone translate that into Latin?
@@lilymarinovic1644 I love it!
@@lilymarinovic1644 Quisque in solebas stridenti miserum tempus in manibus nostris.
(Not a joke)
I'm allergic to most of the ingredients and I would eat this and just go to hospital. It looks delicious.
No. You would eat it. Those allergies u say you have is bullshit.
Lisa Ann you need to check yourself.
@@lisaann2744 bruh, ever heard of celiac?
@@lisaann2744 😂😂😂😂
Love this series.
Great upload.
I so love this show :) I am hooked.
Reverend Starkey deserves mad props for such beautiful penmenship. Most handwriting from that era is almost illegible. Hell, the same is probably true today. But this man had perfect handwriting.
They destroyed the lives of a family who worked for them for 21 years for supposedly stealing beer? Sick people.
Bunch of German’s who are uncaring of their subjects.
Fussbudget the Ninth sounds rad
Rascal77s my thoughts exactly, the ''royals" at their "best", petty, miserable beings sacking a family and condemning them to poverty after 21 years of service
It was the cancel culture of the time
I think theft was considered a very serious offense in households, regardless of the value of the stolen goods, because it was seen as a breach of trust, which was an essential commodity at the time for servants
Damn... All my faves in one shot! Queen E the 1st and Queen V!!! BANZAI!!! MABUHAY!!!😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩😍👏👏👏👏
I love this show
This is the best show!! I love these two.
I want a green scarf like the one the host, Tim, is wearing.
He is wearing a scarf around the 18:40 mark.
I would love a piece of that pie
amazing
So the pie is a giant meat loaf covered in pie crust.
warjdani exactly...but with fancy meat.
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣 Now that is a huge account book! Hilarious
i hope Victoria and Albert appreciated the all the hard work that had gone into cooking this pie that was dome by the cooks down stairs
GREAT HISTORIC FOOD 👍💂💂💂💂💂💂💂💂💂💂
Impressive
poor guy who was sacked :( so ruthless to let him go with no chance of finding another job
omg i wanna make that pie 🥧
Thissss isss fantasticccc spit on the pie🤣💧💧💧💧💧
"Late but honest". I'll have that on my tombstone.
late but earnest not honest lol
Queen Victoria's Pie is a masterpiece.....it's a pity to eat it!!!!!
After watching this highly enjoyable show for two seasons, I can see why Queen Victoria was so chubby. Too put it nicely.
I've just watched a film called Enola Holmes. This beautiful harlequin hallway floor is looking very familiar. . 🤔.
Pretty sure this location was used in that film. And based on its stunning beauty, I would imagine many Film Directors would want to use it
Is there a recipe for that game pie? Especially the crust?
I love this series
Is this like a super Wellington???
I wonder how long it would have to cook for all the meat layers to be done through!
Rosemary gets so excited at the finishing of each dish....I luv it...a meat pie at that
I'm so glad I've never been a subject to any queen or king. Having to render them enthusiastic demonstrations of joy because they were coming near my town, I just wouldn't have been able to take it.
I AM an (Australian) subject of Queen Liz. Never been within a million miles of her, nor ever "had to" demonstrate joy, or anything about her existence. Presumably if your head of state visits your locality you are not rounded up and made to attend said visit.
@@lilymarinovic1644 get out of Australia
Ivan day sounds like lord Ramsey in GOT
Ooohh 🙈 I was hoping to find the recipe in the comments... #dreaming
I just saw this house in Enola Holmes on Netflix :D
i thought that hall looked familiar! :)
Also in “Rebecca” :D
This house in everything.
Lara Croft 1&2
All the money in the world
Fx trust
The favorite
Batman begins
Etc
@@henrylivingstone2800 cool! Now that mentioned it, I remember it from Lara Croft!! :D thank you!
In Bollywood movie kabhi Kushi Kabhie gam as well if I'm not mistaken
“He had 4 guns!”
*me an American* “That’s it?”
This is the house where the Viscount Tewkesbury lived in Enola Homes the movie! 5:19 11:53
That's why the armory gave my brain such a niggling feeling! Thank you for solving that mystery for me!
”I might visit you soon. Not next year but rather the year after that. I will stay for two days.”
Wait is this where they filmed enola holmes?!
Just how much beer would one have to steal to get sacked??
Maybe just one bottle of beer is all it would take because the domestic servants were considered second class.
The original turduckin in a pastry crust!
"I'll bet he didn't brew it though!"

I would guess that meat pie cost upwards of 50 USD in ingredients alone with today's modern convenience. I would love to try my hand in making it if I had the money.
Your not popping down to Tesco for a 6 pack of those pork pies.
This is a nice escape from today’s obsession with politics and race.
Agreed
Lol this is politics and race, LOL. The slave trade, exploits in India funded much of this but oh well. Wouldn’t want to disturb mrs crocombe
That's why I'm here too, Nate.
Absolutely ❤️
And everything lacking joy!!
How sad is that story about the porter? Especially if he was actually innocent, poor guy 😔😔😔
What if he wasn’t innocent?
Dang, part of me wishes I could have lived her life.
I thought he said a thin layer of horse meat, but realized it was "forced" meat other term for ground meat.
They misrepresented Hatfield House. The house Elizabeth lived in was knocked down. The house now dates from after Elizabeth’s death.
so.....it's a fancy meatloaf?
Truthfully I'll watch anything to do with Queen Victoria.
🙏
I'm no vegetarian by any stretch of the imagination but meat pies make me queasy. When cut, they look like something a predator coughed up.
Amen
Did they say horsemeat? Pidgin was another bad enough?
@@dee7019 It's 'force' meat. A fancy term for ground up meat. :)
Especially when cooked raw pink yuk
No different from meatloaf, hamburgers etc.
Did they say, “Horsemeat?”
forcemeat
I didn’t believe that anyone actually would serve Queen Victoria and the Royal Family horsemeat. I thought I misheard something. I believe that people in the US ate horsemeat during the Great Depression.
*No, force meat, as in ground meat as we would call it today.*
Love this show but veal is veal, whether it's rose veal or not it's still baby meat. That was just silly
Most meat you can buy is obese child meat or, at the oldest adolescent meat. Calves are slauthered for veal at 6 to 8 months, cows are slauthered for beef meat when they are 1 or 2 years old when they can live 20 years. It does not make that big of a difference.
Rose veal means it got to eat grass so it is more humane than boxed veal.
@@mievaselli7910 I don't thing humane is the right word, because at the end of the day you're are still ending the life of a being that feels. Brought into the world just to be destroyed a few months later for its flesh.
@@blackcatmagic22 we as a species have been raising animal for food for thousands of years. We wouldn't have made it as far as we have if we hadn't. The human race couldn't sustain itself on just meat it hunted. And our bodies are designed to prosses meat and plant matter not just one or the other
I wish I was a fly on the wall and watch naughty Bertie...I think I would have adored the child. Too bad his dad was so hard on him. What a shame. And Bertie became King anyway and did a fin job.
i make them
Turtle soup is still served here. It’s really nasty lol
What is "force meat?" The word reminds me of horsemeat or meat of an old animal.
It's just an old word for beef(or lamb or pork) minced.This is from Wikipedia:~Forcemeat (derived from the French farcir, "to stuff") is a uniform mixture of lean meat with fat made by grinding, sieving, or puréeing the ingredients. The result may either be smooth or coarse.
@@MrSwifts31 Thanks for that!
@@iLitAfuseiCantStop Indeed. For some reason I always thought force meat had to be fine in texture.
@@iLitAfuseiCantStop You are most welcome.
the Earl Spencer.....John Poyntz Spencer, 5th Earl Spencer, great great grandfather of Princess Diana.
🥧
Rather surprised to see the, sipping tea I’d have thought a glass of burgundy would be more preferable
If Victoria really ate as much as history says all that food was needed.
She was a pig...
Victoria ate so fast and why she was done the whole table was done. People would go home hungry.
No pigeon feet for decoration? Disappointing
About the meat pie, are they saying there’s “horse” meat, or “false” meat, or what? I’m having trouble with the accent.
I think it's actually "course" meat
Looks bunk af
I don't know which is more sad: the poor servant, let go after 21 years or Albert's wholesale slaughter of 150 animals _in ONE day_ 🙄
The animals get cooked and eaten
Imagine the cost when Henry VIII decided to grace a noble family for a stay of a day or 2 while he and his court was on progress.
That's actually specifically what I'm looking into for a thing I'm working on! It's absolutely horrifying
Anywhere but here....nice distraction.
Okay, that pie gives literal meaning to the word “overkill.” And though I’m a carnivore, all those different meats wedged in together makes my stomach flip. Good thing I’m from French & Dutch peasant stock - I would have been supping on simpler fare downstairs! 🙂
Overkill also was the total sum of game shot on the hunt.
They shot so much more than was needed for food.😰
Did he say horse meat??
Bobbie Jordan They said force meat.
"Prince Albert was machine-gunning them down". LOL At 26:26, as Rosemary is "sawing' this masterpiece in half, naming the meats, is she saying, "It has veal, 'horse meat', it has chicken, pheasant, it has pigeon" etc My stomach begin to churn.......
Veal force meat, not horse meat. It’s how they refer to ground meat in the uk. Still gross though. 😂
That actually did not look appetizing.
Pink raw disgusting
