VICTORIA AND ABDUL

Recommended. Delightfully British from the sophisticated self-deprecating humour, e.g. "the Indian drawings weren't Indian enough", through meticulous enactment with details like the head of the Royal Households speaking with different accents to servants and to the kitchen staff, to the sad finale. The second half is increasingly weighty and heart-rending.
