Cependant, à sa grande consternation, il s'aperçoit bien vite qu'il lui faut démarrer au bas de l'échelle et gravir les échelons un par un pour arriver à ses fins, et qu'aussi bien la direction que les syndicats se servent de lui dans leur lutte pour le pouvoir.

Which soldier will the naive, impressionable Raina choose to love - the unromantic, hard-nosed, tough Bluntschli, or the handsome, dashing, reckless (and extremely stupid) Sergius?

BBC anthology drama series that ran over four seasons and replaced the previous BBC Sunday Night Theatre series.

Patricia Routledge gives a career-best performance as Queen Victoria in this 1964 series of plays based on the celebrated collection of dramas by playwright Laurence Housman. Self-willed, obstinate, imperious and passionate... a now-familiar description of one of history's longest-serving female monarchs – but Housman's satirical tribute marked a decisive break with the tradition of the uncritical historical portrait. A Broadway hit deemed too disrespectful for public performance in Britain until the late 1930s, Victoria Regina is a frank portrayal of an extraordinarily complex woman, tracing her development from royal teenager to inconsolable widow at the helm of a vast empire, with all her contradictions, prejudices and unconstitutional behavior.
