Synopsis

A vivid picture of life in Georgian days. The widower Minister William Lamb, 2nd Viscount Melbourne, helps to mould the character of the Princess Alexandrina Victoria of Kent. Debonair, urbane, witty and charming, Lord Melbourne wins young Queen Victoria's romantic devotion, which he returns. It is his last love affair, her first, before Albert, the future Prince Consort was more to her than the rather tiresome cousin she was being urged to marry.
