Good ITV drama about the imediate time before the then Princess Victoria became Queen and then the first couple of years if her reign including her romance and marriage to Prince Albert and at the end the birth of their first child. Some of the servants storylines were a bit distracting.

When we are Married – Kingston Rose Theatre (October 2016)

This isba comedy by JB Priestly. It is about 3 couples celebrating their joint 25th wedding anniversary bit then discover there is the possibility that they aren’t legally married. The cast was good and the play had a few laughs but wasn’t as funny as I hoped and it had a slightly disappointing ending.

The seat A44 in the circle has a good view but not much leg room and a. Bit squashed with the bench tip up seating.
