    One of my favorite scenes in the film is when Mr. Brown tells his friend and fellow servant of the Queen that he gets paid an extra 100 pounds a year (or whatever it was) to wear a kilt when he'd be wearing it anyways.

    This period in good Queen Vic's life has always fascinated me. The film really does a good job showing just how imprisoned a monarch can be by their own duties and how it's not always good to be the Queen.

    A good scene. Another was when Mr. Brown seated himself at the dining table, the head of the table, on "My own," authority he told the other servers. Talk about rank.
    Go, have fun, don't work at, make it fun! Kilt them, for they know not, what they wear. Where am I now?

    From my point of view anything Dame Judi does is wonderful. This is right at the top of my favorites.
