Queen and Lord M Plaidy Jean
On the morning of 20th June 1837, an eighteen-year-old girl is called from her bed to be told that she is Queen of England. The young queen's first few years are beset with court scandal and malicious gossip: there is the unsavoury Flora Hastings affair, a source of extreme embarrassment to the queen; the eternal conflict between Victoria and her mother; and, the young queen's hatred of Sir John Conroy, her mother's close friend. The Victorian age has begun.
He proves to be her guiding light - until the dashing Prince Albert appears and she falls hopelessly in love. Then there is the Prime Minister, Lord Melbourne - 'Lord M' - worldly cynic and constant companion to the queen, himself a veteran of many a latter-day scandal.
