Victoria (ITV) Coronation [Zadok the Priest] 

And glad it was played at Charles III anointing. I think everything was perfectly timed with the hand woven screens coming out when the song started and then departed at the end of the song with Charles on his knees before the High Altar.

The white gown, the Colobium Sindonis (the shroud tunic) to symbolise divesting oneself of all earthly vanity and standing bare before God.

Come on, it's a magic hat. Grow up

@@julianskinner3697That crown is older than you. So don’t say grow up.

Maybe German describes Händels music better?

@@steppenwolf7958bitter bigot 😂

Wasnt victoria is her early 29s when she became queen?

Victoria wasn't only the most powerful woman on the planet, she is probably amongst the most powerful people to have so far lived, she ruled the largest empire ever to exist at it's height.

+Jem Colo She was 18

​@@jemcolo5778No. She was 18.

​@@blazednlovinit As us her predecessor Queen Elizabeth the first and her eventual successor her great great granddaughter Queen Elizabeth ii. We make some badass women in these wee isles.

Don't fret my dear. You'll have Camilla.

Embrace the King that lives forever

Probably the ugliest woman ever to mount a European throne. This video is overly optimistic.

@@iluop3623 Camilla is gross 🤢

Really? Lol

I thought it was played during the anointing?

Incorrect. It's supposed to be played during the anointing, as it was for Charles III. For Elizabeth II, they played it before her anointing. Apparently it was a disaster when it was introduced at George I's coronation - and played completely at a different time in the service from whence it was supposed to be played. But Handel specifically composed this piece for the anointing. All one has to do to realize this is consider the simple lyrics: "Zadok the Priest and Nathan the Prophet Anointed Solomon King. And all the people rejoiced and said, "God Save the King. Long Live The King, May the King Live Forever. Alleluia, Amen!" As the monarch leaves the Abbey, it's traditional to play the two stanzas of the national anthem "God Save the King" after trumpet flourishes. Then after that, other music as needed for the monarch(s) to exit.

It was too big for her head because she was so tiny. :)

heavy is the head that wears the Crown

Well done, Tim.

according her mother her head is too small for the crown

done intentionally I'm sure. I know earlier in the episode she mentions the crown is too big for her. It was a great scene when the crown wobbled slightly....I thought. It is a theme in her life. So many people told her she was too small and inexperienced....almost constantly reminding her about that. So I think metaphorically and actually this is a great scene.

VALHALLAXE Hardly,at the time Britain was still a constitutional monarchy,she had little to no power.

@@randomguy4167 I believe Queen Elizabeth II's recent suspending of Parliament proves me correct. A King or Queen, included, wields enormous power including declaring war, imprisoning whoever he or she sees fit. It is no mere figurehead appointment.

@@PhilipReeder It would be fair to say that Queen Victoria became nominally the most powerful person on the planet. Even though power was exercised by her ministers, the source of all power was the monarch, and the source of her power was God.

On June 20th 1837, she became the Queen Of the United Kingdom Of Great Britain & Ireland. Then on May 1st 1876, she adopted the additional title of Empress Of India.

* UK, not just england

O, my impossible girl.

No Jasmine Thomas of The Beckindales aka The Dales.

Glad you enjoyed.

They should have done it how it really happened even after reading about i can't believe all the thibgs that webt wrong about it.

... till you realize how physically ugly she really was. This video is just Hollywood.

Thanks!

i must correct myelf: "i was glad " was just not available for her coronation, Parry composed it in 1902 or so.

@@rivenoak Didn't Cream do a cover of "I was glad?"

And for "God Save The King/Queen" is played during the dismissal/exit, as seen in King Charles' coronation

Then you read what really happened and you will thing that it's a Mr Bean episode

Thank you! I'm glad you like it.

Glad you enjoyed it. You'll love the show, its fantastic :)

for obvious reasons you should be able to hear it live soon-ish.

Not that it mattered too much as the Hanover Monarchy was abolished in 1871 with the creation of the German Empire governed by the Prussian Monarchy. Her oldest daughter married into that line, so her oldest grandchild was the famed Kaiser (Emperor) Wilhelm II.

​@@janefelix3821 I've read that King Edward VII and the Kaiser were the only ones present when Queen Victoria passed away

Thank you very much.

It is St. Edward crown

It wasn't for Queen Victoria. It was considered too heavy for her, so the Imperial State Crown was made for her. It was also used for King Edward VII as he had been ill prior to his coronation. So ill that the ceremony was postponed.

The crown pictured here is the Imperial state Crown.

In Real Life Her Majesty the queen forbid Sir Jon Conroy to watch The coronation

@@gbgamer1440 Victoria banished Conroy from her presence as soon as she could after her accession. He was later sent to Ireland. Her mother was sent to a far wing of Buckingham Palace once Victoria moved in.

Agreed. They should've been more accurate and put the correct music in when they filmed the scenes. Especially because we KNOW the correct music to be played at Victoria's anointing, and it would have made it in common with ALL OTHER anointings since George II. Though it wasn't quite accurate either, I really like how they handled and scored Elizabeth II's anointing in "The Crown". Esp. when the Duke of Windsor said "... and what do you have? A goddess..!" behind Zadok the Priest...

Koray Kalafat champions league anthem is based on this.

Bruh, just- why?!?!?

It was a TV series on ITV in the UK - 3 series in total. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victoria_(British_TV_series)

Zadok the Priest .

Zadok The Priest (Coronation Anthem No.1, HWV 258) by GF Händel, 1727

yes, they failed utterly during the various shots

"Zadok the Priest" composed by Händel for George II.'s coronation and used for every coronation ever since

Poor Rider He put it on the wrong finger and in her diary The Queen wrote that the first thing she did on getting back to the palace was soak her fingers in cold water to get the ring off. Then she gave her dog a bath.

the same archbishop also put her wedding ring on the wrong finger in that ceremony

It was a television series just called "Victoria".

Yes, it was disappointing that it was stopped seemingly randomly and without bringing it to a close.

@@anyaw340 yes it was disappointing 😕

nope, it's played before the monarch is anointed with holy oil, which happens before they are crowned

Muammar Gaddafi It was written by George F Handel for the coronation of George II in 1727.

So true. Her coronation was a dumpster fire! Drunk and inept bishops and lords. The oil was nasty, she was cold - and the ring debacle almost cost her a finger! 😮

😂 A very important duke fell from some stars haha ? Who would that be then ?

No, it is based on the English Liber Regalis, which put down how a Coronation should be staged. The book is about 800 years old. It is really a Saxon or Norman ceremony.

Maggie Hola Pues al principio, le hacen la burla que la corona Es muy grande para su cabeza. Por que Ella es Chica de tamaño. Y la corona se mueve por que Es como una metáfora.

+PurpleRain que serie es???

En realidad si es muy pesada, está hecha de oro sólido! De hecho la reina Isabel II lo ha mencionado en alguna entrevista que es muy pesada e incómoda. 😋

Collin what on earth are you on about ?

The actor, Rufus Sewell, also starred in The Man in the High Castle, a series on Amazon Prime TV.

That's because that song was based on the coronation theme

You have it the wrong way around my friend.

ReneAlejo 21 Clue 1: They weren't looking for a Queen Victoria lookalike to play her

Question 2: Could have they named her Queen Pamela?

i think the whole idea was to capture her "essence" and not get a lookalike.

I think the whole idea was to get as pretty a face as they could get away with. (no complaints - she's great)

Actually, every English (British after 1707) Monarch from the coronation of William and Mary in 1689 until the coronation of King George V in 1911 used either the George I Crown, the George IV Crown, or the 1838 Imperial State Crown (which Queen Victoria and King-Emperor Edward VII, due to his slow recovery from acute appendicitis, was crowned with). The 1838 Imperial State Crown would be replaced with the current version in 1937. In all cases, it was due to the weight of the St. Edward's Crown: that crown weighs nearly 5 pounds, while the Imperial State Crown is half the weight (2.5 pounds).
