Victoria season 2 episode 8 (finale) spoilers: Sacrifices and security

Victoria season 2 episode 8 will be airing on ITV in one week’s time, and it is more than just your standard installment of the series. This marks the end of season 2, and a chance for us to sit back and reflect somewhat on the latest chapter of the Queen’s life. You’ll see a lot in this episode, and it makes sense that following it you will have to wait until Christmas to see anything more with this story. That is the good news for the time being — there is going to be a Christmas Special for Victoria this year! For those of you who do enjoy and appreciate the holiday, this will be a nice chance to view it through the lens of Victoria and Albert. There is also a historical connection there given that Albert loved Christmas.

If you want to get some more details about the finale for the time being, we’ve got some of those for you here at CarterMatt below!

Victoria season 2 episode 8 synopsis – “As Peel fights the battle of his career in Parliament, facing the consequences of taking a stand against the Corn Laws, Albert inadvertently plays into the hands of Peel’s critics, and jeopardises the progress that they have fought for.

“Meanwhile, at the Palace, the strained relationship between Victoria, Albert and Victoria’s closest confidante, Lehzen, is pushed to breaking point, as Albert grows increasingly frustrated about the control that he perceives Lehzen to have over his wife, especially when the health of their children is at stake.

“Faced with the prospect of having to live without their respective crutches, Victoria and Albert begin to lose sight of each other. But when tragedy strikes, they realise that sacrifices will have to be made in both their personal and political lives.”

So what do we anticipate is going to transpire here by the end of this episode? It feels as though the characters are going to experience a deeper sorrow than they have in a little while — at least since the earlier part of the season. The best way to perhaps describe this is that they are going to be in a position where they must figure out how to sink or swim in a relationship. When much of the world around them is gone, can the two parties still stand strong? This will be their biggest test in the present — luckily, we are watching this with a nice degree of awareness as to how the story is ultimately going to conclude.
