Victoria

Victoria (Alexandrina Victoria) (1819–1901) was the Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland from 1837, and the first Empress of India from 1877, until her death in 1901. Her reign lasted more than 63 years, longer than that of any other British monarch. Victoria's reign was marked by a great expansion of the British Empire. The Victorian Era was at the height of the Industrial Revolution, a period of significant social, economic, and technological change in the United Kingdom. In that period the British Empire reached its zenith and became a formidable global power.

She encountered the Tenth Doctor and Rose Tyler during the events of Tooth and Claw in 1879, knighting them both for saving her from a werewolf. Later she founded the Torchwood Institute, taking the name from the estate where she encountered the Doctor. During the story The Curse of Peladon, the Third Doctor reveals that he was present at her coronation in 1837, although she apparently does not remember this or did not meet him in person at that time.
