Empires - Queen Victoria's Empire
This four-part series is a history of the transformation of a small island nation into an industrial superpower. It is an engaging portrait of a Queen who ruled an empire on which the “sun never setâ€, spanning the globe – with a fifth of the world’s population as her subjects. The figures who shaped a distinctively British imperialism – William Gladstone, Benjamin Disraeli, David Livingstone, Cecil Rhodes and Victoria’s husband Prince Albert – have their stories told. Personal accounts, lush reenactments and evocative cinematography from former outposts of the Empire, including India and Africa, recount the dramatic clash of personalities and cultures that would drive Victoria’s remarkable 64-year-reign.
