In The Favourite DVD, Abigail steps into the breach to fill in as the ill queen's companion. Their burgeoning friendship gives her a chance to fulfill her ambitions and she will not let woman, man, politics, or rabbit stand in her way.

England is at war with France. Nevertheless, duck racing and pineapple eating are thriving. A frail queen Anne Stuart occupies the throne and her close friend lady Sarah, governs the country in her stead while tending to anne’s ill health and mercurial temper. When the new servant Abigail arrives, Sarah takes her under her wing, where Abigail sees a chance at return to her aristocratic roots.

A bawdy, acerbic tale of royal intrigue, passion, envy and betrayal in the court of Queen Anne in early 18th century England!
