Summary
It is Christmas 1848. Imagine the season 2 Special pushed a season late, basically. Except of course Drummond is still alive and well.
Alfred receives shocking news from Septimus in the post. Drummond is motivated to get back to having some political influence, and even takes a trip to an unseemly part of London, driven by his newfound overwhelming need for charitability, thus pushing Alfred's worry to panicky territory. Meanwhile, the Duchess has designs on Wilhelmina and Alfred. Reputations are at risk - will they be able to escape the threat of scandals?
I guess you'll know in season 4...

Summary
Alfred is guarding the Queen on her Irish trip, which leaves Drummond with some dull days. Andrew, his footman, has a splendid suggestion, however, and Drummond bumps into the Duchess of Sutherland and Miss Coke on his outing. As a grateful friend of hers, he is struck with an idea to help Miss Coke defeat her gloom and invites her to a literary evening! Should be fun... and if she meets an eligible young man there, well, all the more incentive to go, isn't it? Rather sooner than later at any rate, since the Duchess of Buccleuch is at it again with her plotting, this time at the opera.

Summary
Finally, Septimus and Cecilia's wedding is here and it is to be an unforgettable event for many of the guests in more than one way... And old face shows up to haunt Drummond - much to his indifference, which is much to that person's frustration. The reception allows for a lot of fun - too much fun, as Henry's eyes spot it, making him wonder why Alfred doesn't seem to want to marry at all. Harriet opens some doors she wishes she hadn't, and the ensuing breakfast of awkwardness is sure to embitter everyone's morning tea. Secrets are discovered and suspicions awakened and more intrigue at the happy couple's wilder than planned send-off.
