Gillian Anderson (as Margaret Thatcher): A jacket and dress ensemble Season 4, Episode 2, 'The Balmoral Test' Custom-made sky blue single-breasted button-down jacket and matching knee-length dress with short sleeves, five buttons at front, and matching belt; together with a blue Sinamay straw hat with bow and netting around brim, and a pair of navy gloves (4) Footnotes: As seen in the Balmoral Highlands & Braemar Games scene. The Braemar Gathering in Scotland likely started during the 11th century when King Malcolm Canmore visited Braemar, in the Highlands. However, the festivities back then were likely a lot more violent. Royal patronage dates back to 1848, when Queen Victoria first attended the event. She had a great love for Scotland, popularised the Highland Games, and continued to support the event for the rest of her life. The Games have been regularly attended by the British Royal Family since the Victorian era, with the current Royal patron being King Charles III. The activities at the Games today include highland dancing, piping, tossing the caber, putting the stone, throwing the hammer, sprinting, a relay race, a hill race up Morrone, long jump, tug of war and a children's sack race. The prize money for the winner today is over £12,000. For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com For further information about this lot please visit the lot listing
