Antiques expert Tim Wonnacott and chef Rosemary Shrager visit Blair Castle in Scotland, following in the footsteps of Queen Victoria, who was there in 1844.
At the time of this visit, Victoria had been on the throne for seven years. She was only 25 years old but had already had four children in four years. Prince Albert thought it would be the ideal place for the queen to recover from the arrival of Alfred, their fourth child, born just a few weeks earlier. They stayed for three weeks and it cemented a lifelong love affair for the royal couple with the highlands.
