I recently wrote another article for the royalty website I help administer about the inaccuracies in Victoria Season 2, What's Wrong with Victoria Season 2: http://www.unofficialroyalty.com/whats- ... -season-2/

From the article: "I noticed that right after the shows aired on Sunday nights and into Monday, a lot of people viewed Unofficial Royalty’s article about Ernst II, Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, Prince Albert’s brother. That made me wonder what they had Ernst doing in Season 2 – probably the same inaccurate thing he had been doing in Season 1. As of the date of this article’s publication, Ernst’s article has had 50,000+ views, is Unofficial Royalty’s tenth most viewed article and is our most viewed biography article. What they had Ernst doing (and what they had many other characters – or should I say real people – doing) never happened."

I bought the soundtrack CD while I was in London last week. Although I have it downloaded from iTunes, I was thrilled to get a hard copy.

With "Victoria" season 3 done with its US run, this blog post looks at what possibly could happen next with casting:

Wrapping things up with a 4th season is fine by me.

It looks like there might not be a 4th season:

The boxed seasons 1-3 DVD is available. I own the two official "Victoria" companion "making of" books by Daisy Goodwin and the soundtrack (digital and CD format) for the series so I'm set.

I've read comments from PBS viewers that they noticed scenes were cut or edited when watching the show on DVD vs. the original PBS broadcast.
