She is every bit the English girl with her crisp annunciation of every syllable in the English tongue to her school girl hairstyle neatly parted on the side with her bangs held in place with one simple hair pin. Her conservative attire and slim figure cut a neat sharp silhouette suitable for an outing to the park or a visit to Buckingham. She could be the nanny next door or an English debutante!
This recreation of the wedding between Queen Victoria and Prince Albert has been a marvel to watch. Many worked tireless to reproduce every little detail in this historical documentary. Very well done to all of you; and thank you Lucy Worsley.
Such an great documentary!! It would have been so amazing to live during that time and to be one that is close enough to Queen Victoria to be known as a trusted friend and be invited to that beautiful wedding!! And may I just say, I absolutely love....Love...LOVE Lucy Worsley!! She is so incredibly adorable to watch!! There's never a dull/boring moment with her!!
This was very interesting. What a marvelous perspective to bring an old wedding to life in modern times. Helps to give me a deeper appreciation of what they felt and went through. And....what tremendous amount of work that went into a Royal wedding.
I've watched many Lucy Worsley presentations over the years, theu are fabulous!👍 Whether there be errors in this production or not, l had sooo much fun watching it. I would have loved to be part of the wedding put on here, what fun to dress up like that!! Thank 💐 You SO much for sharing/uploading this extremely entertaining peek into the history of some modern-day wedding traditions. I hope there's more to come!!👍😊🇨🇦☘️⚜️
But so many things wrong. So not historically correct to the finest detail after so many perfect things. But I love her shows too…but hey…let’s get it all correct.
Beautifully done! My only question is why, oh why wasn't that wonderful designer/seamstress invited to the wedding ceremony to have an up close look at her crowning achievement?
A wedding is for the couple, close friends, family... not the wedding designer, the floral arrangements designers, the gardeners, the stable hands, the dishwashers, the kitchen hands, etc. They were servants, back in the day... not close friends and fam, right? 😴
The Duchess of Kent was ",the Queen's mother", not the "Queen Mother", she was never queen consort. Queen Adelaide, consort of William IV uncle of Queen Victoria, became queen dowager upon her husband's death, and on Victoria's Ascension to the Throne.
I really love this video, the magical love between this Royal couple..thank you so much for bringing this reenactment of the love story between Queen Victoria and Prince Albert!
The modern bakers are definitely having an easier time of making the wedding cake than the Victorian bakers did, since they have all sorts of modern conveniences.
Another great story/show from Lucy 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Love all the info and research she must have to do for each one! She genuinely always seems as thrilled as I would be , if I had her access to historical docs, garments, letters, etc The Queens measurements must have been smaller since she had to wear so many undergarments, at that time😬🤦🏻♀️
Finally, an actress, Abbie Garland, who actually resembles Victoria more so than other actresses. She has the slightest of a receding chin. Of course, Victoria's was very prominent. Ms. Garland's shape of her face and three quarters profile does resemble Victoria's. She also has a slight overbite which Victoria seems to have had in several of her portraits.
Given the high standard of these BBC productions I puzzled at the number of glaring errors in this program that no one at seems to have caught at the level of the conception of the project. There should have been a fanfare to announce the arrival of the bride into the chapel since she was a crowned and anointed queen by this point. Also the choir of the chapel royal was and is an all male ensemble and the choirboys then as now would have worn their Tudor style uniforms not cassocks and surplices. The choir would not have sung anything until the ceremony proper had begun, they are there to provide the music for the formal liturgy not entertain the wedding guests before the ceremony has begun. Also why is the groom on the wrong side? , grooms are always on the bride's right hand side. The dress of many of the guests is very strange; first the senior court ladies should be in full court dress with tiaras and trains (ie. her mother, the dowager duchess of Kent, the dowager queen Adelaide, etc.). Not sure why the dowager duchess of Kent was referred to as 'the Queen Mother, as she was never Queen Consort so she could never have been the Queen Mother. Many of the guest are actually wearing costumes that at the would have been 20 years out of fashion, the high waists of the Regency was absolutely out of fashion by that point and everyone certainly would have been dressed at the height of fashion for a Court wedding. And until very recently no one applauded at a religious ceremony regardless of the nature of the event. The congregation clapping a church service royal or not would have been regarded as a horrible breach of etiquette.
The number of inaccuracies is truly bewildering. As to the lack of proper female dress, it might be worth considering the possibility that they used layman enthusiasts who are sporting their own creations rather than hired costumes -- just in order to cut costs. -- After all, Regency happens to be much more popular amongst period re-creators than early Victorian.
@@Michaelneiss It would be one thing if the production was that of an enthusiast group decided to throw something together for fun, although it should be said that even they should know that to sport Regency fashion would be a two decades out of date, the fact that it was a BBC production they certainly would have the resources to furnish appropriate 1840s fashions seems a little odd that they didn't seen to bother especially given the credentials of the presenters it seem strange to me that the project does not seem to have been properly vetted since is was supposed to be a documentary to shed light on the events of the day. Its a little like making a documentary about the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II and dressing all the ladies in attendance in Flapper outfits.
My my, I thought it was a beautiful tribute, but what do I know, I’m American. Even though my great great grandmother always said we had royal blood. Thus the name Ann kept in our family since the time we relocated here, when my family was bestowed land from the queen, to now include my granddaughter’s middle name.. Don’t be such a prude, it truly was rather refreshing.🇺🇸
Yes, when they made so much fuss about the portrait by Hayter, it's baffling that they didn't follow it. There one sees that every single man was in military uniform and every woman had elaborate shiny clothing with furs and trains and complicated headdresses. In the video the ladies are dressed in Regency day wear or for a quiet middle class dinner at home. I missed the "Queen Mother" mistake and I didn't know about the choir needing to be in Tudor uniform, but I caught the groom being on the wrong side because we still do man on the right, bride on the left. Oh, and the bridesmaid dresses were wrong -- why on earth make those huge sartorial errors? Surely the BBC could have borrowed correct costumes if they didn't have enough, or else cut down the number of participants rather than insult the intelligence of the viewers.
I adore Lucy Worsley but always elected to skip this program whenever it aired over the years. Although I'm fascinated by the Victorian Era, and V & A in particular, I think I assumed the show would be a little too female-oriented for me, not feeling all that concerned over the royal couple's wedding. Boy, was I mistaken! Seeing this program here tonight for the first time, I was glued from start to finish. Part of it was my desire to see Lucy again, as well as watching a program of hers that would be totally new to me. Her excitement over the approaching wedding was contagious & learning of all the prep truly was both fascinating & entertaining. The show's "feminine-aspect" bothered me not at all. And I couldn't've asked for a more enthralling portrayal of the young queen. She resembled Victoria so closely & was exquisitely lovely to watch throughout. I wonder if the actress portraying her here, unknown to me, performs as Victoria on a regular basis, as she easily could, & very profitably, too, I imagine. The actor portraying Albert was equally fine. This truly is one of Lucy's greatest shows & I'm so glad I've now finally seen it!
From paintings at the time of the wedding and from later photographs of Prince Albert, I really don't think he was as good looking as this actor. But then everyone says how handsome Prince Albert was, so who knows?
@@meeeka There seems to be some misunderstanding. I am referring to the formal Regency period that lasted until the death of George III in 1820 and that, in terms of fashion, happens to be eponymous with the high wasted empire dress. Even though Victoria married in 1840, many ladies in this production are sporting regency-style dresses that are outdated by at least 20 years -- which would have been extremely unlikely in real life (at least for this very period).
@@Michaelneiss I agree actually. The bodice is still fairly regency in shape at that time,but the sleeves were quite different by then. Bear in mind though that fashions change at different times in different countries.
I watched part of this with closed captions on. There are some hilarious bloomers in the captions ("shrodinger" for chaud-froid sauce; "ghetto" for gateaux).
I am re-watching the wedding scene, and I am absolutely baffled by how the women are almost all wearing gowns in the style of 1805-1810. Despite this wedding taking place in 1840!
She was not destined to be married to Albert. There were several options, all endorsed by different members of the royal family. she just chose Albert.
I would have loved to have seen a royal wedding such as Victoria and Albert, Henry 8 and Queen Catherine of Aragon (not Anne for heavens sake), king Edward 4 and queen Elizabeth Woodville (I know they had a secrete wedding but who wouldn’t want to see it!!!), Henry 6 and Margaret of Anjou. I love a good medieval wedding and Coronation ceremony story!
I think if I had lived in Victorian England I would have starved. Their food looks inedible. That cooked rabbit with the head still on almost made me want to throw up.
Though I never saw or ate it, my Belgian great grandmother always insisted on purchasing the rabbit she loved to eat with the head still on... apparently, if you remove the head and tail, cat can be passed off as rabbit! I can't help but wonder whether the weird, very old tradition of serving roast animals and birds semi-while originally comes from proving to your guests that they are eating highly desirable foods, and not cheap (or horrifying) substitutions
@@faithfulforever6331 I would have to be desperate to eat the unusual meats and the stuff where they're using heads and claws and whole fish, it would turn my stomach. I expect a lot of the stuff is very tasty, though, even the aspic (savory gelatins). The meat pierced through with bacon fat and herbs probably tastes amazing. And the buttered asparagus standing up in the pastry looks amazing to me
@@melissasaint3283 It is certainly true that without the head and tail still attached, is very difficult to tell the difference between a skun cat and a skun rabbit. skun
I look at my well-brought up and carefully educated teenager and wonder if he could have been up to the task that Victoria and Albert had to face. He is about the same age that Albert would have been when he met Victoria.
Her aunt died about 8 years before Victoria married Albert. Also her aunt divorced Albert’s father, and in doing so, was cut out of Albert and Ernst’s lives when they were children.
Little did they know that her choice to marry a cousin so close to her bloodline, would doom her children and grandchildren to misfortune, death and revolution.
Lucy is every bit the English girl with her crisp annunciation of every syllable in the English tongue to her school girl hairstyle neatly parted on the side with her bangs held in place with one simple hair pin. Her conservative attire and slim figure cut a neat sharp silhouette suitable for an outing to the park or a visit to Buckingham. She could be the nanny next door or an English debutante!

Lucy, you’re my favorite royal biographer. I absolutely love watching you tell these stories.
The production costs of this recreation must have been astounding. I applaud the efforts, to my benefit of learning.
I like Lucy's sense of humor while teaching

But so many things wrong. So not historically correct to the finest detail after so many perfect things. But I love her shows too…but hey…let’s get it all correct.

Beautifully done! My only question is why, oh why wasn't that wonderful designer/seamstress invited to the wedding ceremony to have an up close look at her crowning achievement?

Awesome documentary, thank you for sharing !
Reading your daughter’s diary is a no no, Victoire
Thank you for posting 🙏🏼🌹
I love this! Thank you so much!
They're going by the painting of the wedding, but there are also daguerrotypes of Victoria and Albert on their wedding day.
I love how they drew Poe in the carriage at the wedding.
How exciting to play royal dress up & wedding.
The food looks so good. Whatever cookbook they were using, I wanna try it
I like a channel called Tasting History, he finds historic recipes and menus and makes it.
Thought you'd like it.
Same here lol. I'll pass on the 300 pound cake lol.
Well done enjoyed it very much.

53:20 Why are the ladies sporting Regency dresses?

A moment of silence for the abundance of Regency gowns
Enjoy the historical events of the UK
I am re-watching the wedding scene, and I am absolutely baffled by how the women are almost all wearing gowns in the style of 1805-1810. Despite this wedding taking place in 1840!
Princess Phillipa of England wore a white wedding dress in 1406 - Mary Queen of Scots wore a white wedding dress in 1558.
But it was not made famous by them. I think it is not disputed that Vicky wasn't first. But she was first to brand and popularise it.
Pure love
She was not destined to be married to Albert. There were several options, all endorsed by different members of the royal family. she just chose Albert.
Wow Queen Victoria was from West Virginia
I'm watching from west Virginia lol
wow Victoria looks beautiful on her wedding dress and I don’t wait to get married with my boyfriend in the future
I wonder what Victoria would have thought if someone had told her that one day the whole world would be able to read her journal.
Begins at 2:15
Does anyone knows where to read Victoria's journal?
I would have loved to have seen a royal wedding such as Victoria and Albert, Henry 8 and Queen Catherine of Aragon (not Anne for heavens sake), king Edward 4 and queen Elizabeth Woodville (I know they had a secrete wedding but who wouldn’t want to see it!!!), Henry 6 and Margaret of Anjou. I love a good medieval wedding and Coronation ceremony story!
This show is brilliantly done!!!!
It’s understandable that Victoria needed a public relations plan here because her uncle had been so unlikable
Really enjoyed this but I don’t think the congregation would have applauded!
And while this fancy wedding was going on, a million people were starving to death in ireland in order to pay for it.

Who is playing Queen Victoria here?
I look at my well-brought up and carefully educated teenager and wonder if he could have been up to the task that Victoria and Albert had to face. He is about the same age that Albert would have been when he met Victoria.
How were the craftspeople who made this wedding happen not invited to the reenactment as guests?
Is this some kind of classist nonsense?
Clapping in church ! They are not catholic
I've witnessed clapping in catholic weddings and other ceremonies held at catholic churches, but I agree - it feels very uncatholic
We know that Victoria had a messed up relationship with her mom but did she get along well with her aunt?
Her aunt died about 8 years before Victoria married Albert. Also her aunt divorced Albert’s father, and in doing so, was cut out of Albert and Ernst’s lives when they were children.
Yup, no place to be a vegetarian and no place to be on a low carb diet
In all honesty, the taxidermy decor is positively ghastly. Especially for food? No, thank you.
It's not surprising Victoria's dress was so simple. Everything she did seems to have been a reaction against the excesses of her Hanoverian forebears.
I'm surprised she refers to the Duchess of Kent as the Queen Mother. She was nothing of the sort, never having been Queen.
Ivan Day and Rosemary Shrager cook circles around this gal. So sloppy compared to their precise efforts!
Oh, my, yes! That "whipped cream" cake looked like a child did it!
Too much narrating during the wedding. Ugh.
Not only she did not wanted children so early, it was also the fear of dying Düring birth like her cousin the english rose Princess Charlotte
Little did they know that her choice to marry a cousin so close to her bloodline, would doom her children and grandchildren to misfortune, death and revolution.
She carried the gene for hemophilia.
What happened to the real Chapel Royal?
"God smacking love" with her 1st cousin...gross 🤮🤢🤮🤢
Talk about "keeping it in the family!"
It's gob smacking not god.
Why gross? Genetically risky perhaps,but why gross? She didnt know him really any more intimately than any other man.
When the only men you are allowed to see are your own cousins its kinda inevitable
@@pheart2381 idc they’re still related
all that food
wow
i hope they went slow
