 I am a huge fan of "Victoria" on PBS!!!
This is the Time Period that I love and the sets and costumes are amazing!!!
The show not only tells the story of Queen Victoria but also shows what it was like to be a servant in the Queen's household and the relationships that develop .......
 Jena Coleman, of Dr. Who fame, is cast as Victoria.........
 Click HERE to see the video about Jena Coleman's thoughts about "Victoria"
 
Victoria and Albert's romance was epic!!

Please Click  HERE view a Video that showcases the Set of Victoria!!

    Thank you Debbie for letting us know about the Victoria marathon on Sunday. I haven't seen any of it yet so I will definitely tune in. I loved Downton Abbey and Queen Victoria was well loved the world over as well as here in Canada. We belong to the British Commonwealth so we are always interested in the royals and British history in general. I also have an uncle who moved to Canada from the old country and he still has a strong accent. It's great fun listening to his stories about England. Thanks for your visit and have a beautiful day, my friend.

    Hugs,
    Sandi

    Hi Debbie,
    My husband and I also love this series, and look so forward to it every week.
    We also loved the Crown and Downton Abbey. These are all really great series,
    and gives you such a taste of what life was like back then.
    Hope this finds you doing well hon,
    Blessings, Nellie

    Hi Debbie, I am really enjoying Victoria too! Such good acting! Prince Albert looks like Prince, you know-the singer who just passed away a while back. :( Prince Albert is quite handsome, and Victoria is beautiful!
    Have a great weekend!

    Debbie, I am SO in LOVE with this show!!! PBS has done a superb job. I have seen every episode (more than once already), but plan to tune in for the marathon as well. It will be great to see it all in succession instead of having to wait between episodes. Jenna Coleman and Tom Hughes are spectacular as Victoria and Albert. Thanks for sharing at #HomeMattersParty :)

    Thank you Debbie for all the updates on "Victoria"! I love this show, the sets, the fashion and the actors selected for all the parts. Wonderful & certainly better than the news, the overpaid actors here flaunting their political comments. (Loved the Downton Abbey & Call of the Midwife series as well. PBS rocks!!) Enjoying your blog and your decorating.

    We were lucky enough to have Victoria on here in the UK at the end of last summer. It was a perfect Downton Abbey substitute! My daughter and I had it as 'our thing' and would watch it together every week. Enjoy!

    I have just discovered this program and it's helping heal the absence of Downton Abbey that I still miss. I'm watching the marathon as I work tonight.

    I'd love to watch this series, I've heard so many good things about it too. I must admit I'm a bit of a sucker for "period" series, so this is right up my ally. Have you ever watched Outlander Debbie?

    I also love this time period and am enjoying the series. I hate that most series on PBS are only a handful of episodes. Great write up of the show! I can't wait for the season finale!
