'Queen Victoria. This is probably how most people picture her:
A fat little old lady with a face that would turn milk sour. Victoria, as we all know, was dead famous for being strict, stuffy and disapproving. A queen who wore only black for 30 years and was as gloomy as a graveyard. Her most famous saying is:- `We are not amused!'.........
But was she really like that?......'
