Victoria & Abdul
Drottning Victoria (Judi Dench) ska medverka på en middag med ett stort uppbåd av kungligheter och andra adliga personer, samt delta i möten och tillställningar hela dagen. Medan hon blir påklädd beskrivs hennes dag av en medhjälpare, Sir Henry Ponsonby (Tim Pigott-Smith):
Ponsonby: "Quarter to 10:00, changing of the guard. 11:00, meeting with the Swedish Ambassador. 12:00, luncheon with Oscar II, King of Sweden and Norway, the Norwegian Ambassador, the Chief Under-Secretary of State for the Southern Norwegian Provinces, the Junior Under-Secretary of State for the Northern Norwegian Provinces. 2:00, ceremonial drive down the Mall. Half past 2:00, tea party at Hyde Park for 30,000 children."

Nästa dag är det likadant och med liknande gäster:
Kammarjungfru: "Good morning, Your Majesty."
Ponsonby: "Breakfast with the Royal Princes of Belgium. 11:00, an audience with the Sultan of Dubai where Her Majesty will be presented with the Diamond of Ooojay. Garden party where Her Majesty will receive Oscar II, King of Sweden and Norway, again. And Queen Lili'uokalani."
Victoria: "Who on Earth is she?"
Ponsonby: "A monarch and sole Queen Regnant of the Kingdom of Hawaii, Your Majesty. She has composed a song for you. On the ukulele. But we have managed to put her off."
