The second episode of Queen Victoria and Her Tragic Family takes a salacious look at Victoria after her husband, Albert had died.
It covers Victoria's friendship with John Brown. The servant from Scotland who was regarded to have become a close companion much to the anxiety of her children.
Unlike some media portrayals of John Brown. The historians regard him as a nasty man who was cruel to Prince Leopold.
The program does not stop there. One of Victoria's daughter was embroiled in scandal and there were rumours that she might had given birth to a bay secretly which was raised by another family.
Then there was Bertie, a libertine always getting involved in affairs.
The second episode continues the tabloid look at history. It is all lightweight stuff.
