A personal journey through the old British Empire by the nation's favourite comedienne, Victoria Wood.

Victoria's Empire Résumé

Victoria's Empire Victoria Wood

Victoria's irreverent pilgrimage will feature in a major BBC1 series which will take her to key places around the world that also share her namesake, from Fort Victoria in Ghana, to Victoria, Nova Scotia, and finishing at Zambia's Victoria Falls. Victoria's adventure will be fuelled by her fascination with the Queen Victoria - both her public and private persona. She will explore how Victoria felt about the colonisation being forged in her name and what she was like as a wife and mother. In her inimitable fashion, Victoria Wood will record her adventure tracing a nation's colourful history - blending the outrage and eccentricity with a celebration of the ordinary. We definitely will be amused.

Victoria's Empire Avis

'It's not clear whether Palin is ready to give up his BBC travel pass, but Wood would make a brilliant replacement. Witty, informative and endlessly curious, Wood is taking us on a whistlestop tour of the former empire' -- Sunday Express 'Wood was an inspired choice of travelling companion, dispensing jokes, information and Mancunian common sense in roughly equal measure.' -- Guardian 'Wood is a wonderfully entertaining presenter!few sitcoms are as consistently funny as this mix of travelogue and informal history lesson.' -- Sunday Times
