Shouldn't Victoria be Fat?


Not a small chick with a little round head.

Christina Hendricks would have made a great Victoria. If only she could do a British accent

They were looking for an actress who could act and Jenna Coleman was the best actress for the role.

Couldn't disagree with you more. There are so many talented actresses out there - Ms Coleman isn't one of them IMHO.

Victoria was not a large woman in her youth, it was only in her elder years after her husband died that she became quite large.
Also, Christina Hendricks is not fat!

Hendricks isn't Fat but she's Big and very shapely

She's also 5' 7 1/2'' (1.71 m) tall and 41 years old that makes her both too old and too tall to play an 18-year-old Victoria

and sexy

No that's wrong. She became fat about 1 year after her coronation. She complained about it with Melbourne who told her that if she cared about it she could exercise walking instead of for example riding but she told him she didin't like to exercise and walk.

Another board you're trolling on?

Jenna Coleman isn't a perfect resemblance for Victoria, but she's versatile enough to pull this off.

Not in her teen years no...

Jenna is amazing, but I always think Natalie Cassidy (Sonia from EastEnders) looks more like Queen Victoria.

Even when the show does tackle her older years Jenna Coleman is not going to put on wieght for this role, female actresses will lose wieght to play an anorexic but not put on wieght, no way, they will probably get a diffrent actress.
