I adore Lucy Worsley but always elected to skip this program whenever it aired over the years. Although I'm fascinated by the Victorian Era, and V & A in particular, I think I assumed the show would be a little too female-oriented for me, not feeling all that concerned over the royal couple's wedding. Boy, was I mistaken! Seeing this program here tonight for the first time, I was glued from start to finish. Part of it was my desire to see Lucy again, as well as watching a program of hers that would be totally new to me. Her excitement over the approaching wedding was contagious & learning of all the prep truly was both fascinating & entertaining. The show's "feminine-aspect" bothered me not at all. And I couldn't've asked for a more enthralling portrayal of the young queen. She resembled Victoria so closely & was exquisitely lovely to watch throughout. I wonder if the actress portraying her here, unknown to me, performs as Victoria on a regular basis, as she easily could, & very profitably, too, I imagine. The actor portraying Albert was equally fine. This truly is one of Lucy's greatest shows & I'm so glad I've now finally seen it!

Given the high standard of these BBC productions I puzzled at the number of glaring errors in this program that no one at seems to have caught at the level of the conception of the project. There should have been a fanfare to announce the arrival of the bride into the chapel since she was a crowned and anointed queen by this point. Also the choir of the chapel royal was and is an all male ensemble and the choirboys then as now would have worn their Tudor style uniforms not cassocks and surplices. The choir would not have sung anything until the ceremony proper had begun, they are there to provide the music for the formal liturgy not entertain the wedding guests before the ceremony has begun. Also why is the groom on the wrong side? , grooms are always on the bride's right hand side. The dress of many of the guests is very strange; first the senior court ladies should be in full court dress with tiaras and trains (ie. her mother, the dowager duchess of Kent, the dowager queen Adelaide, etc.). Not sure why the dowager duchess of Kent was referred to as 'the Queen Mother, as she was never Queen Consort so she could never have been the Queen Mother. Many of the guest are actually wearing costumes that at the would have been 20 years out of fashion, the high waists of the Regency was absolutely out of fashion by that point and everyone certainly would have been dressed at the height of fashion for a Court wedding. And until very recently no one applauded at a religious ceremony regardless of the nature of the event. The congregation clapping a church service royal or not would have been regarded as a horrible breach of etiquette.

The number of inaccuracies is truly bewildering. As to the lack of proper female dress, it might be worth considering the possibility that they used layman enthusiasts who are sporting their own creations rather than hired costumes -- just in order to cut costs. -- After all, Regency happens to be much more popular amongst period re-creators than early Victorian.

@@Michaelneiss It would be one thing if the production was that of an enthusiast group decided to throw something together for fun, although it should be said that even they should know that to sport Regency fashion would be a two decades out of date, the fact that it was a BBC production they certainly would have the resources to furnish appropriate 1840s fashions seems a little odd that they didn't seen to bother especially given the credentials of the presenters it seem strange to me that the project does not seem to have been properly vetted since is was supposed to be a documentary to shed light on the events of the day. Its a little like making a documentary about the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II and dressing all the ladies in attendance in Flapper outfits.

Yes, when they made so much fuss about the portrait by Hayter, it's baffling that they didn't follow it. There one sees that every single man was in military uniform and every woman had elaborate shiny clothing with furs and trains and complicated headdresses. In the video the ladies are dressed in Regency day wear or for a quiet middle class dinner at home. I missed the "Queen Mother" mistake and I didn't know about the choir needing to be in Tudor uniform, but I caught the groom being on the wrong side because we still do man on the right, bride on the left. Oh, and the bridesmaid dresses were wrong -- why on earth make those huge sartorial errors? Surely the BBC could have borrowed correct costumes if they didn't have enough, or else cut down the number of participants rather than insult the intelligence of the viewers.
