In the show’s two-hour Christmas special set in 1846, Queen Victoria’s husband, Prince Albert (Tom Hughes, “The Game”), hopes to recreate the Christ- mastime joy of his youth. For her part, Victoria tries to make an African girl named Sarah (Zaris-Angel Hator, “Black Earth Rising”) feel welcome within the palace. Tensions are high between the Royal couple, but the holiday spirit has a habit of bring- ing people together. “Victoria” is expected to return to ITV in early 2019 with eight episodes set in 1848, a turbulent time for the monarch. Those hoping for another Christmas special may be out of luck, however. No plans for another holiday edition have been announced, but at least fans can revel watching Coleman and Hughes in the 2017 special.
