Episode 4: Foreign Bodies

Summary

Albert travels to Cambridge to accept a position as Chancellor of the university, leaving Victoria alone as London is ravaged by a deadly cholera epidemic. The crisis leads the queen to an encounter with eccentric physician John Snow, who is determined to end the crisis by discovering how the disease is spread - and a vital breakthrough is provided by a young nurse named Florence Nightingale. The Francatellis host an opening dinner for their new hotel, and Penge notices a growing attraction between Sophie and Joseph

Review

David Butcher

An outbreak of cholera is haunting London – Soho in particular – which brings one John Snow into the story. No relation to Jon Snow, obviously, this is Dr Snow, a mild, stuttering fellow whose theories about cholera don’t impress the medical establishment.

Which, by the laws of period drama, means he must be right, but the question is, will he be right in time to save Skerrett and Francatelli’s new venture from getting caught up in the outbreak?

Back at the palace, Skerrett is sorely missed, as the royal couple spurn each other and communicate via terse notes. No such froideur for the porcelain duchess: she and footman Joseph are getting on better and better…
