Plot
Adapted from the internationally successful theatrical piece by Laurence Housman, the British TV miniseries Victoria Regina starred Patricia Routledge as Queen Victoria. The part proved to be as much a tour de force for Routledge as it had been for Helen Hayes in the original Broadway and London production: Enacting four different episodes in the life of the titular British Queen (individual titles: "Spring," "Summer," "Autumn," "Winter"), Routledge was required to age over 60 years, from naïve young monarch to wizened dowager. Also in the cast were Max Adrian as Prime Minister Disraeli and Joachim Hansen as Victoria's beloved consort Prince Albert. Victoria Regina was broadcast from November 13 to December 4, 1964. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
