Queen Victoria's Yorkshire Getaway At Castle Howard | Royal Upstairs Downstairs
Presenters Rosemary Shrager and Tim Wonnacott visit Castle Howard in Yorkshire to follow in the footsteps of Queen Victoria and her tour of the country visiting the great and the good. Tim talks to the current Earl of Carlisle, Simon Howard, who reveals the lengths his ancestors went to host the queen, and just what happened when 2,000 visitors turned up to see where her majesty had slept. Rosemary is below stairs creating a famous 19th-century dish that would have been served to Victoria and Albert.
From Elizabeth II to Cleopatra, Real Royalty peels back the curtain to give a glimpse into the lives of some of the most influential families in the world, with new full length documentaries posted every week covering the monarchies of today and all throughout history.

Imagine living there. Just amazing. And people did live there when it was new. Imagine how lovely that would be. Simon Howard should just give it to me as a kindness. Why not? You can't take it with you and I'd give it back. A couple of months would do. And a bit of egg salad. I'd be content. (I have been indoors for too long because of the virus. Now I'm requesting a castle from an Earl.) UPDATE: I have just watched the entire video and the prize-winning egg salad will be enough. That was the best food I have ever seen on this series. And the radishes have those little edible pods and greens. We must tell people.

@Kandy Kandy Let me visit and live in a little spare room. I wouldn't bother a soul. Well, I would ring the dinner bell. I'd be inconspicuous though. My Dad was from Yorkshire. And the Earl DOES have similar eyes with the black lashes. Me too. I know how it works in the UK. I left as a child long ago but I still have a British Passport, just in case. The salad will do.
The amazing records kept at these castles. I want to visit castle Howard when this pandemic has subsided.
I just adore their repertoire. Love from the U.S.
That is a beautiful jacket the guy doing the upstairs portion is wearing. Such a uniquely artistic fabric. I’m going to check out his other videos to see if he’s always this well dressed!

Albert- “those tendencies didn’t come from my side of the family” Albert and Victoria are cousins What do you mean, it’s all your family

WOW! It's very beautiful! ;-)
As a monarch the reality of the possibly one of her children dying and eventually herself and Albert. It was only prudent and intelligent that she be looking to take inspiration from things that she and Albert loved to create their last resting place has absolutely nothing morbid about that. It's perfectly sensible. And as such constructions would come out of the public budget the sooner she decided on what she wanted the grander she could make it over time. Despite the 7th Earl being something of a bungler, it's very clear that the 4th Earl was certainly a man of taste. The same sort of taste as Victoria and Albert so it would have been a great honor to the Howard family that the queen would choose to imitate what they already had, for the Royal Family. Although the Victorian period was a time of great innovation particularly in medicine and preventing childhood death that doesn't mean that the queen wouldn't have been all too aware of the possibility that one of her children might not reach adulthood and that she would have need of a mausoleum rather sooner than she might wish to think about it.

It's outdoor seating and tables. Go to Google maps and search for Castle Howard in York UK. Then click on the green Boar Garden icon on that side of the Castle to see several pictures. I believe there is a cafe serving food in that wing of the Castle. Despite still being privately owned the Castle is open to the public, as noted in the video.

Audrey Ryan Read the Little House books. One of them, don’t remember which one, has a detailed chapter about this. They cut the ice in the winter from frozen freshwater (lakes and ponds) dragged ti to ice houses with ropes and horses and stored it in underground ice houses.

I didn't know that making a salad was a naughty endeavour. And, I guess the host's earldom was reduced from to 7 to 3 because Albert wasn't impressed with his lack of antique knowledge. Furthermore, it was very environmental in those days, of course. Those were the days you did everything 'environmentally'. I guess they had no choice. My mouth watered over that salad. YUM! And did Tim flirt with Rosemary calling her a good egg? I never.
She looking like beauty.
That is an incredibly rich salad.
This video could have been made in half the time if they didn't drag it out!
Those eggs look like penguins.
Sadly the phrenologist was true in the fact that the brains come from the female side. However I loved Bertie who had to put up with an horrendous upbringing but had a charming nature and a very kind heart . Thank God he didn’t take on his German side.

Not sorry those eggs are severely overcooked. That gray almost purple color is a tell tale sign. Gordon Ramsey would be pissed
One egg was overcooked smh
I can't believe this "chef" cooked the hard boiled eggs to the point that they were green on the outside of the yolk. Any real chef would know that you have ruined them that way. Also the original chef that created the salad said it's too spicy for the ladies to eat, but they made it for Queen Victoria? Makes no sense.
