Adbul Karim is whisked from his clerk's job to present a ceremonial coin to Queen Victoria for her golden jubilee. The monarch, who is tired of her fawning courtiers, takes a liking to the young man and promotes him to become her Munshi, or spiritual teacher - much to the resentment of her family and household. Period drama, starring Judi Dench, Ali Fazal, Tim Pigott-Smith and Eddie Izzard
