The Young Victoria

June 26th 2009 13:42

Scenes set at Westminster Abbey were filmed at Lincoln Cathedral, with some scenes filmed at Blenheim Palace, Arundel Castle, West Sussex, Wilton House near Salisbury, Wiltshire and Belvoir Castle, Leicestershire.

The film follows on the life of the young Queen Victoria, focusing on her early reign and romance with Prince Albert in the 1830s.

Although largely faithful to historical facts, the film has drawn criticism for embellishing on events in order to increase dramatic potential. For example, Prince Albert was never shot during an assassination attempt on Queen Victoria. This inaccuracy has reportedly annoyed Queen Elizabeth II following a private screening of the film.

According to the writer, Julian Fellowes, "The scene where he's (Conroy) trying to make her sign the paper when she's ill and she throws it to the floor - its completely true", and "The scene in Windsor where the King stands up and insults Victoria's mother is not only true, but about two-thirds of his speech is what he actually said!".
