Recorded at All About Women Festival, March 5th 2017.

Queen Victoria wielded enormous power during her 64 year reign. Yet she still had to negotiate with her husband, fit in work around her nine children and manage the expectations of 10 Prime Ministers and her public. What can we learn about women and power from this 19th century monarch?

Watch as journalist and biographer Julia Baird explores Victoria’s journey from teenage queen to the most powerful woman of her era.

Chaired by Sarah Macdonald.
