Trivia:
The 'seaside' scenes were filmed at Belvoir Castle, approximately 70 miles from the sea. The 'sand' is actually on the terrace (roof of the ground floor) of the castle. The surrounding Vale of Belvoir was digitally replaced with 'seawater'. moreGoofs:
Anachronisms: In her opening speech to the Privy Council, the new Queen Victoria refers to herself with 'I' and 'me'. This would never have happened in the day - monarchs always referred to themselves with the royal plural 'we'. moreQuotes:
Sir John Conroy: [watching the crowd outside the palace] How changeable they are. They hate you, they love you, they hate you.Duchess of Kent: They punished her. They never hated her.

The British are by right famous for their costume dramas. But this is a failure with characters as stiff as the men's collars and a picture language which very much reminds of the paintings from the period. The years around queen Victoria's coronation.
You can of course make such a movie must about private life, with the prime ministers Wellington, Peel and most of all, Melbourne, turning up. And it can be filmed theater too, but here it is just theater and not a very splendid one.
Her majesty deserved better. To quote her: -"We are not amused". Or like she said about Gladstone: -"He talks to me like a public meeting".
