Summary: | PORTRAIT OF A GREAT LADY - The Queen Mother - she was the longest-living British Royal in memory who witnessed some of the most significant developments and historical moments of the last century. When she was born, the British Army was fighting its last great imperial war in South Africa, airplanes had not yet flown, and gas lamps had not been replaced by electric lighting. In this original program, a fellow-Scot who is almost as well known, actor David Niven, guides us through her remarkable and touching story. Bonus program is QUEEN ELIZABETH THE QUEEN MOTHER 90 GLORIOUS YEARS. Narrated by Richard Baker. This delightful double feature will appeal to lovers of The Queen Mother and The Royal Family in general.
