'This is "Masterpiece."

I desire to leave your service, ma'am.

'Previously on "Victoria."

The man Joseph.

I gather you have dismissed him.

Indeed, your Grace.

He was performing a service for me.

If you find me inappropriate, Albert,

either remark upon it privately

or address me with respect.

If you were deserving of respect,

then I should.

It's perfectly safe for
you to return home.

You simply want to stay in England.

I'm going back to London.

You can remain here, if you wish.

Albert?

Let me in, my darling.

Albert, please.

I must to go to Cambridge

as I have been asked to stand

as chancellor of the university.

In my absence, I hope you
will follow my advice

and employ a male tutor for Bertie,

his behavior has become... unmanageable.

For the prince.

Mm-hmm.

From the queen, sir.

Bertie's misbehavior

is simply that he does not fulfill

your very specific expectations

of how a boy should act.

Thank you.

There is no question

of you going to Cambridge today.

Have you forgotten we are receiving

the foreign ambassadors tonight?

We must present a united front.

By "united front," you mean

another opportunity for
you to indulge your vanity

while I am paraded
around like a show pony.

Sir.

Must I explain again

that since I was forced
to run away to Osborne,

I have had to double my efforts

to show my people the same devotion

as I show my children?

What you call vanity,

I call duty.

Well, if you treat your
country like a child,

how will it ever mature?

I, too, have important work, Albert,

and that is to show my people
their queen is by their side.

Look what I can do with my new toy!

Your Grace.

I...

I have been meaning to thank you

for what you did for me in Osborne.

I...

Anyone would have done what I did.

We open in three days.

The place is filthy.

Look.

Look at these windows.

Once they taste my strawberry tarts,

they won't be looking
out the window, Nancy.

Do you think we should change the name?

What shall we call it?

The Palace.

It was a joke!

You're a chef.

You should know about timing.

Please tell His Royal Highness
our correspondence is at an end.

I believe this letter
is from Mrs. Skerr --

Mrs. Francatelli, ma'am.

Is that the best you can do?

Leave us.

You seem out of sorts lately, Drina.

Could you blame me?

Albert is God knows where,

and the one person who
could do my hair properly

has left me to get married.

It's hopeless.

Don't worry, Drina.

Hm?

I will never desert you.

Can't you just give him
some medicine, doctor?

Just last night he was
on the street playing,

refusing to go to bed.

Why has the Lord saved me when my boy...

I'm very sorry to tell you
that your son has cholera,

Mrs. Dolan.

We don't know where it comes from,

only that it acts fast.

Now, do, do you remember
who he was with yesterday?

What are you talking about?

Could you tell me,
where, where he had been

before he came home last night?

Do you want your son's
life to mean something?

If you can help me discover the cause,

he will not die in vain.

Allow me.

William's been at school
for two months now.

Perhaps I could visit him?

Are you fond of this necklace?

Remember.

Everything you are fond of

belongs to me.

Her Majesty the Queen.

Emma, I do believe the prince
is smiling at the queen.

That is just for the public, I'm afraid.

Perhaps that's all marriage is.

Presenting an appropriate facade.

Your Majesty,

may I present His Excellency
the Ambassador to Oudh.

Your Excellency.

Your Majesty.

The king of Oudh sends his felicitations

on the birth of the Princess Louise.

And he hopes that you will accept

this gift for the princess.

The gems are said to protect
the wearer from misfortune.

'Your Majesty,

may I present His Excellency

the Persian Envoy.

His Excellency the Portuguese Envoy.

Prime Minister.

I wanted to tell you, I, I have been asked

to stand as chancellor
at Cambridge University.

Mi dispiace, signora, un momento.

You'll be a vast improvement
on the previous royal incumbent.

The duke of Gloucester
had great difficulty

in keeping his mouth closed.

Well, there is much to be done.

At Bonn, we studied botany, geology,

all of the natural sciences.

But at Cambridge, they study
little more than the classics.

Homer and Virgil made
me the man I am today.

Oh, yes, I believe you

studied at, um, "Mag-dalene" College...

... Lord Palmerston.

You might want to learn
the names of the colleges

before you start telling them

what to study, sir.

"Maud-lin," sir.

Thank you.

Of course, the chancellorship

is an honorary position, sir.

It has no executive power.

And Cambridge is not a place
that relishes innovation.

Even more reason to accept the post.

Ah, you must not worry
about your duties here.

I will support Victoria.

I hope Cambridge is ready for you, sir.

Thank you.

Your Serene Highness,

have you heard the "Swedish Nightingale"

sing before?

I have not.

Well then, how fortunate

that you are here tonight.

I don't suppose singers of her caliber

often make it all the
way over to Langenburg.

But now Europe is at peace,

I'm sure you'll be making
preparations to return there.

Tell me, is your wife here?

I should so like to meet her.

She is very particular about
the company she keeps.

As is the prince.

I believe he has forbidden
the maids of honor

from walking the grounds unaccompanied.

In case of assignations.

♪ Casta

♪ Diva.

Used the leftovers from
the Chartists' banners.

Isn't much call for them now.

Cuffay's been transported.

Sometimes it feels like
none of it ever happened.

Well, you've made them look beautiful.

I shall repay the favor one day.

It is you doing me the favor.

Not much keeping me busy since you left.

I'm troubled by opening
with all of this, Charles.

You've been troubled from the
moment you left the palace.

Please try to remember what you've got.

Not what you had.

(Prime Minister.)

(Prime Minister.)

Sir.

Thank you.

Something the matter?

Nothing to concern you at present, ma'am.

Judging by the look on
the prime minister's face,

I would beg to differ.

I've just been informed that there is

a cholera outbreak

in Soho.

We thought it was just
a few isolated cases.

I assure you we're doing all we can.

We're closing all the graveyards in town,

and opening them in the
country, to prevent any...

... congestion.

So your suggestion is to
tidy the problem away.

Surely we should be trying to
find out what is causing this.

It's a laudable aim, sir.

But as politicians, we
can't waste our time

with scientific red herrings.

We need to make sure that
the public are reassured.

The last thing we need,

is to have cabs filled with dead children

outside graveyards.

I don't want my guests

to hear any of this.

Perhaps Miss Lind could give us an encore?

I think the only way to
get rid of this disease

is to get rid of all these foreigners.

What do you reckon, Joseph?

I'm sure you have a theory.

♪ Ah, non credea

All we can do is protect those in need.

♪ Si presto estinto

♪ O fiore

Why would you not want
me to be in a position

where I can make a real
change to this country?

I need you here, Albert.

How can you think of leaving
London at a time like this?

I'm sure you believe
that your presence here,

it will cure the sick.

No, your, your predecessors
may have believed

in such superstitions, Victoria, but this

is the 19th century!

You are so callous at the moment.

You know how hard it is
for me without Skerrett.

I suppose that you believe
we are all abandoning you.

I don't recognize you.

Well, I recognize you!

What does that mean?

How could I forget

your warmth?

Your generosity in times of crisis?

It is what holds this country together.

I am a queen, Albert!

What is it you fail to understand?

I can only assure

the Honorable Member

that every precaution is being taken

to stop this terrible plague spreading!

'This is the third and most
devastating outbreak of cholera

to ravage the streets of
London in the last five years!

127 people have died

within three days

in one single street in Soho.

Half a mile from this House.

I can only repeat!

We are expediting every remedy we know.

And now His Royal
Highness, and soon, I hope,

to be chancellor of this university,

will say a few words.

Thank you, Master.

My university in Bonn,

one was not afraid to challenge tradition.

We should strive to build a future

that is enlightened by science

and rationality.

The dreaded disease that today
is causing misery in our capital

must be stopped.

But that will only happen if institutions

such as this

ask the right questions.

I'm sure you will resolve
your differences.

Hm?

Do you know why I spend so
much time playing this piano?

My husband sold my
instrument in Langenburg

to pay off his gambling debts.

I hardly know anything
of your life in Germany.

When I first arrived here, I...

I thought we would never
understand each other

the way we did as children,

my life had become so dark.

And yours was... so light.

But perhaps we have more
in common than I thought.

I too understand the ache
of a lonely marriage.

We've always fought,

but in the past, it would...

It would bring us closer together.

He still resents me for
taking him away from Osborne,

his...

His creation.

You believe he is trying to take revenge?

That's a strong word.

Hmm.

Perhaps it's the right one.

No human pursuits

have ever made any material progress

until science was brought
to bear upon them.

Now, we must not be complacent.

We must consistently test
the limits of our knowledge.

For, in the words of
Alexander von Humboldt,

the renowned scientist,

who I believe was in residence
at Magdalen College,

universities ask questions

where the answers are not known.

School is discipline.

University is freedom.

Hear! Hear!

Thank you for your
thoughts on our education,

Your Royal Highness.

Cambridge has produced

the greatest minds in the world

for over 600 years

from a curriculum based in theology

and the lessons of the past.

Are you, for example,

suggesting that we teach the
heretical work of Charles Lyell,

who believes that the world

was not created in seven days?

Hear! Hear!

Foreigners.

It is bought in by foreigners.

The first case recorded

was in a seamen's hostel in Limehouse.

Nonsense.

The toxic miasma

should abate soon,

and now that Covent
Garden has been closed.

The only cure is for people
to maintain their composure.

Are we safe here in the palace?

Here, you are quite protected, ma'am.

The air is clean and
safe around the palace.

But outside,

the danger of encountering the miasma

is too great.

Are you proposing to put me in quarantine?

As your prime minister, I urge you

to remain here until
contagion has passed, ma'am.

And what example does it set to my people

if I am hiding here in the palace?

You don't have to be seen, ma'am.

You could announce a
national day of penance,

perhaps a day of fast.

Would that would raise
the spirits of my people?

No.

Dr. Snow?

Do you have another theory

about how the disease is spread?

I s-s...

Yes?

Without proof, I cannot
offer you an answer,

and as I... have no
proof, I have no answer,

Y-your Majesty.

Russell has been most unhelpful.

I have heard the reports from Parliament

and I do not wish to stand idle.

I should like you to organize
a visit to the hospital.

I'm your foreign secretary, ma'am.

May I suggest you contact

the commissioner for the Board of Health.

And he will hem and haw

and talk about the danger of infection.

You, on the other hand,

you've never met a rule
you didn't want to break.

You sound like my wife, ma'am.

But don't you worry about catching it?

Lord Palmerston, if one
of my children were ill,

I would not hesitate
to go into the sickroom.

I understand -- I'll make
the necessary arrangements.

Although I imagine those woolgatherers

at the Board of Health

will have a conniption fit.

Not if we don't tell them.

Your Grace.

From the duke.

Can you, uh, order my carriage?

I have been summoned.

I hope you will be careful.

Surely your husband

would rather you remained in the palace

until the contagion has passed.

I cannot refuse him.

In this circumstance, you
should not be afraid to.

Shall I let him know that you
are to remain at the palace?

If he's not at home,
he will be at his club.

Exactly.

I make two kinds of tonic

for women in your condition.

This one

works a treat for ladies who are happy

to welcome a little stranger.

And, um, I have this one...

... for those who aren't.

Do you want a surprise?

Depends.

Is it a good one?

Yes.

But you'll have to be patient.

Why?

Because you'll have to wait nine months.

Yes?

Yes.

You also want some entertainment.

What we've been craving.

Your Grace, I have a message for you.

I'm sorry, I didn't quite catch that.

A message, Your Grace.

It's almost as though he's
speaking a different language.

Her Grace would like to inform you

that she has decided
to remain at the palace.

You can remind the duchess

that as it was a command,
I did not expect a reply.

She must leave immediately.

Are you sure you want to do this, ma'am?

It's not a matter of want.

It's a matter of duty.

Excuse me, miss.

Help me, sir.

Just straight ahead, ma'am.

This way.

It's a cruel disease, ma'am.

What's that noise?

I found her on the floor
of the Parthenon in Athens.

She had fallen from her nest.

And I've had her with me ever since.

Aren't you worried she'll bite you?

No, she never has yet.

Just as I've never caught
anything from my patients.

So you don't believe in the miasma theory?

If it was in the air, I
would be dead by now, ma'am.

What do you think causes it?

All I know is that it is a
disease that follows poverty,

and dirt.

There must be...

God, there must be something I can do.

A subscription.

Blankets.

The medical board have theories.

Fairy tales.

There's only one doctor
who comes to visit.

A quiet man with a stammer.

I hope he will put an end to it.

Thank you.

What is your name?

Florence Nightingale, ma'am.

The work of Lyell is most intriguing.

If the fossils do indeed
date from different periods,

then there is no basis...

Sir, I... I thought you should know,

the gentleman, Powis, who made his...

preferences so clear at dinner

has decided to stand against you.

Has this ever happened before?

No, but then they have never
been faced with the prospect

of a foreign chancellor,
and a German one at that.

Thank you.

Mama! Mama!

Mama!

Darling!

Oh, come here, come here.

We missed you.

What is it, Mama?

Is it my fault?

No, darling, I'm...

I'm just so happy to see you.

Aren't you happy to see me?

Come along.

Back inside.

Oh, Victoria.

My poor sister.

There was nothing I could do.

You're so hard on yourself, hm?

Duchess, it's your turn.

Your Grace.

The duke has asked me to inform you

he does not wholly agree
with your message.

I see.

I could let him know that
it is a royal command.

Thank you, I will deal
with the situation myself.

I wish to see him.

The young gentleman, Yorkshireman.

Dr. Snow?

The fellow who could hardly

string a sentence together?

You should know that he is seen

by the medical establishment

as an eccentric.

I hear he doesn't eat meat.

Or fish.

If he can discover the
cause of this disease,

then his diet is of no concern to me.

Please send for him immediately.

♪ Home, home

♪ Home, sweet home

There's no place like home ♪

♪ There's no...

How long you been there watching me?

Long enough.

For what?

For you to finish so I
won't have to do any work.

That's why I married you.

Oh!

Oh, it's perfect.

Am I late?

The guest of honor is...

... never late, Mr. Brodie.

Never late!

Take this off.

Thank you.

Oh, hello.

Welcome.

Abigail!

Both hungry?

There is a lot to get through

before we open to the public tomorrow.

How's life at the palace, Mr. Brodie?

Well, the queen isn't very happy

with her new dresser,

and she has been doing her own hair.

You're not hitting the bottle, are you?

Joseph?

I, uh...

I, I need some sealing wax.

Your Grace.

I am glad you are still at the palace.

The queen is the only woman
he can't pull rank on.

You weren't at dinner.

It was very quiet.

Is my voice so loud?

When it's the only thing I can hear.

I can hardly believe I'm
here, under my own roof,

with my beautiful wife

and... with... a little
Francatelli on the way?

Long live the house

of Francatelli!

Thank you.

I want to propose a toast.

To Charles Francatelli,

for not listening to me when I said

this couldn't be done.

We may have left the palace,

but he is a king among men.

Good health.

To good health.

If you'll excuse me for just a moment.

Oh, that is delicious.

Lovely speech.

Thank you.

'Powis for chancellor!

Powis for chancellor!

Down with the German!

Lord Palmerston.

I did not know you were in Cambridge.

I thought I'd make the trip
to brush up on my Ovid.

And as a graduate, I've
come to vote, of course.

The future of this university
is very important to me.

And to the nation.

What do you want?

You are still open, despite the cholera.

What's it to you?

I have patients in this street.

Nothing wrong with my men.

How curious.

It's simple: no women, no foreigners,

and all the beer you can drink.

Here, go on, have one on the house.

No, thank you.

Suit yourself.

I reckon it's the best medicine

out there.

Cheers!

He refused my invitation?

As I said,

Dr. Snow is seen as a maverick.

But what was his reason?

Apparently he hasn't found
the proof you needed, ma'am.

Proof or no proof, I should
like to speak with him.

Send for him again.

I went to church.

And then?

To my apothecary shop.

Where is that?

Soho.

Just off Broad Street.

And-and after work?

Mrs. Arbuthnot.

I need a few more answers.

You're the only case outside Soho.

I visited my sister.

Is she sick?

No.

What route did you take home?

The usual.

Marshall Street.

Broad Street.

You can stop off for
fresh water at the pump.

For my tonics.

Here you are, my darling,
everything just as you like it.

Coddled eggs, poor knights of Windsor,

and then more...

What shall we call the baby?

Plenty of time to decide that.

Victoria if it's a boy.

Albert if it's a girl.

No, that's not right.

Victoria... if it's a girl.

Shh... Nancy.

Nancy.

What are you doing?

We have to get up or
Mr. Penge will find us.

Shh, shh, Nancy, Nancy.

We're not in the palace anymore.

Stop using that pump!

Stop! Please!

What are you doing?

Go on, get out of here!

The votes have been counted.

Votes for the earl of Powis --

837.

Votes for

His Royal Highness Prince Albert --

953.

Congratulations, Your Royal Highness.

Thank you.

Although I'm sure you
will be pleased to hear

that I shall not be
accepting the chancellorship

under such circumstances.

Clearly they do not want me.

Well then, my journey

will have been in vain.

You voted for me?

Yes, I surprised even myself.

I had what the dons might
call a Damascene conversion.

You have come around
to my way of thinking?

Only on the matter of cholera, sir.

Congratulations, sir.

I...

I... wondered what...

We don't have all day.

Prime Minister,

perhaps you could leave Dr.
Snow and I to talk alone.

Please.

Make yourself comfortable.

Tea?

I th --

I thought that the, uh...

Please, let me.

That will be all.

Speaking in public has always been of...

great difficulty to me.

The trick, I find, is...

is to pretend I'm speaking to Islay.

Islay hangs on my every word.

Don't you, Islay?

You were saying?

I've been certain for a while.

It's not miasma, not
the air, but the water.

Bad water, ma'am.

Women and children are
more likely to drink water

and they have died in greater numbers.

Men who work in the
breweries are unaffected

because they only drink beer.

But... then this... case in Hampstead.

Only one woman in the
village had contracted it.

I discovered that she
had her water brought up

from a pump in Broad Street.

She even used it in the
tonics in her apothecary.

It is the pump that is
spreading the disease.

This evidence, I believe, can
finally stop the contagion.

Excuse me.

Sir, what was the name of the woman

making the tonics?

Arbuthnot.

Your Royal Highness.

They are ready for you.

No.

Do something.

Do... something!

When did it start?

Early this morning.

I thought it was something
to do with the child.

Child?

Oh, dear Skerrett.

Do you want me to do your hair, ma'am?

I've got my own palace now.

Yes, you have.

It's splendid.

Victoria...

... if it's a girl.

I couldn't dream of a greater honor.

Charles!

The chancellor of Cambridge University.

Congratulations, Albert.

It should have been a, a formality,

but instead it was a...

... a humiliation.

But you won.

Just.

I should have listened to Victoria.

It is not enough to be right,

one also has to win over the public.

Do you remember

when I first told you my name?

That was when I knew.

So did I.

All that time,

we could have been together.

Just you wait.

All of this...

will be a marvelous success.

Not without you.

I should have married you sooner.

It wasn't long...

But it meant everything.

Nancy?

Nan -- Nancy.
