The catch up of a whole series of Victoria ... it is interesting that some aspects of history is so revisited and all link up through my recent film I watched of Belle ... blending into one another ...

The sidelines of a well documented Victorian period. The industrial revolution. How Victoria re-examined the hung drawn and quartered punishment still done for treason. That her reign was to be seen kinder than her barbaric predecessors. And then herself with her interbred husband Albert becoming aware of child labour ... acknowledged the times moving on in this, the open air steam trains on the tracks at that time ... the unusual wives tale ways of preventing conception... and changing the way the Royals gave birth ... And how precarious it actually was to give birth ... the mad uncle and ...

These dedication s to a deceased husband on the early grief of a Queen in mourning til her own death, after a long reign. Though not without those companions before and after marriage she cherished too.
