I knew the first one right off the bat – **Mrs. Brown** (1997), but I forgot the name of the second one and had to look it up – **Victoria and Abdul** (2017)

All right, one is definitely _Sunday in the Park with George_ ("It’s hot up here…).

I can’t think of another, could be I don’t know the show. But I’ll take a WAG that it’s _Kiss Me, Kate,_ because the second act begins with the song “It’s Too Darn Hot”; it’s been a while since I’ve seen it, but I don’t recall the first act ending with the characters having an issue with the heat.

Correct. The other one is _The Fantasticks_.

Thanks. Never seen it, not really familiar with it, so I would never have gotten it!

One was _Time After Time_. I thought the other might be _Somewhere in Time_, but that movie has Jane Seymour, not Steenbergen.

I’m not going to go searching for it – that’s cheating.

And that’s not even counting Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, who was not a king but a prince consort (by virtue of being married to a queen).
