Clips from Victoria - Engine of Change (S01E01)

"What was it you used to say I was?"
Victoria
"A little wrigglepants, ma'am."
Victoria
"Did you see those fellows in the field?"
Victoria
"They were surveying the railway, I think."
Victoria
"My darling, railway is not a subject to be paraded before the Giffards."
Victoria
"Just be your charming self. They will adore you."
Victoria
"Last time I saw her she was, what, this high?"
Victoria
"Apparently she still is."
Victoria
"She's here to pimp for his Regency."
Victoria
"Are you randy for it?"
Victoria
"Not at any price."
Victoria
"Your Majesty. Sir Piers."
Victoria
"So how does one pass one's time in Staffordshire?"
Victoria
"Ceramics. It is the industry of the region."
Victoria
"It is a-a-a favoured occupation of the people."
Victoria
"are created en masse in the factories."
Victoria
"In fact, I've arranged for you and the Prince to ride out with the Shifnal tomorrow."
Victoria
"Piers, you're quite mad. Her Majesty cannot tax herself"
Victoria
"to ride with the hounds in her condition."
Victoria
"Alas, I do not hunt."
Victoria
"A day of driven shooting, then."
Victoria
"Would Your Majesty find such a prospect diverting?"
Victoria
"Excessively diverting."
Victoria
"We shall observe, Lady Beatrice."
Victoria
"I'm confident neither of us shall find the experience taxing."
Victoria
"Your man's shooting tomorrow. Does he have the kit?"
Victoria
"Hm. In this country,"
Victoria
"a gentleman don't set foot in the field without the kit."
Victoria
"Just see me afterwards."
Victoria
"Crikey, whose are those?"
Victoria
"The butler gave these to me for the Prince."
Victoria
"Those trousers aren't proper kit for nothing but fancy dress."
Victoria
"A gun wearing white would be a right howler."
Victoria
"Are you listening to me? Are you listening? Yes."
Victoria
"A dark coat. Brown boots. Tall hat."
Victoria
"The older the better. That's all you need."
Victoria
"Yes. Come on, show me what you've brought."
Victoria
"I won't have the Prince embarrassed."
Victoria
"What are those gentlemen doing?"
Victoria
"They're the beaters, sir. They're driving the birds towards us."
Victoria
"I see. In Thuringia, we take birds in cages to high towers."
Victoria
"And then they are released."
Victoria
"What a barbaric practice."
Victoria
"Sausage-eater can hit 'em! A most singular man."
Victoria
"Fascinating."
Victoria
"I "wipe your eye", Sir Piers."
Victoria
"Well shot, sir."
Victoria
"Oh. Extraordinary to find you here."
Victoria
"Oh, extraordinary only in that I do not shoot, Your Majesty."
Victoria
"But I am neighbour to the Giffards."
Victoria
"If you instruct me to do so, ma'am, I shall certainly try"
Victoria
"but I am afraid I shall make a fearful hash of it."
Victoria
"Sport is not my metier. I am unused to it."
Victoria
"Too busy preparing for government."
Victoria
"Now, luncheon."
Victoria
"Sir Piers, what is your view of the railway?"
Victoria
"Fortunately, sir, I don't have a view of it here."
Victoria
"I'm plagued by people wanting to run the thing through my park."
Victoria
"I tell them to cut along sharpish or I'll set the dogs on 'em."
Victoria
"He's a fan, mind."
Victoria
"You approve of it, Sir Robert?"
Victoria
"One must not stand in the path of progress, sir."
Victoria
"I agree. I believe the railway dissolves the unnecessary cultural divides of our region."
Victoria
"Men can travel for work. Families unite."
Victoria
"When you say..."our regions", sir, do you mean the counties of England?"
Victoria
"are rather fond of the peculiar virtues of their region"
Victoria
"and don't necessarily want it disfigured by iron rails."
Victoria
"As ever, this subject makes men overstimulated."
Victoria
"Am I right in thinking you have never seen a locomotive, sir?"
Victoria
"That's correct."
Victoria
"Well, there is presently one on my property at Drayton."
Victoria
"It is quite adjacent."
Victoria
"It would be my pleasure to offer you all a demonstration."
Victoria
"Victoria?"
Victoria
"Alas, Sir Robert, I think we should let our host"
Victoria
"devise the programme of activity."
Victoria
"Your Majesty is pale."
Victoria
"It is too silly of us to expect you to remain at table."
Victoria
"So fatiguing... I am quite well, thank you."
Victoria
"..when baby is being mischievous."
Victoria
"Would you care to rest, ma'am?"
Victoria
"I think I shall explore."
Victoria
"You count as alone."
Victoria
"To look up over one's stew"
Victoria
"and simpering over my husband..."
Victoria
"He only ever says exactly what he means"
Victoria
"and amongst people like the Giffards, it's..."
Victoria
"..hopeless."
Victoria
"Oh, say something, Lehzen."
Victoria
"You're allowed to say something."
Victoria
"Sir Robert reminds me of an exhibit I saw in Salzburg."
Victoria
"It was a big frog. Stuffed."
Victoria
"You accuse Sir Robert of looking like a stuffed frog?"
Victoria
"Now listen to me, Peel. I know you've had disappointments in your life."
Victoria
"Harrow, so forth."
Victoria
"But the future belongs to the Tories"
Victoria
"and the Tories belong to you."
Victoria
"So make yourself fit for us."
Victoria
"In what respect am I not fit?"
Victoria
"You pander to the railway"
Victoria
"You poodlefake and pussyfoot about the gormless German."
Victoria
"It's perfectly clear why they've invited themselves here."
Victoria
"Only reason he talks to you is to ginger up support for his Regency."
Victoria
"An office you shall not allow him."
Victoria
"Wellington's not too old to take the reins, you know."
Victoria
"Just saying."
Victoria
"You imagine I resent being left here by the Queen."
Victoria
"Well, you are correct."
Victoria
"It's never nice being left behind, Duchess."
Victoria
"Did you make that just for me?"
Victoria
"That's extraordinary."
Victoria
"You know what would make that even better?"
Victoria
"Here we go. Cover it in hot chocolate."
Victoria
"I think, Miss Skerrett, you might be a genius."
Victoria
"Forgive me, darling, but..."
Victoria
"..sometimes you're too direct when you speak."
Victoria
"Men like Giffard, they recoil from enthusiasm."
Victoria
"I'm sorry about the locomotive."
Victoria
"But we must proceed carefully."
Victoria
"Speak English."
