This is footage of a visit journalists paid to the Russian Imperial Court in Exile at St Briac. One can hear the voice of Grand Duchess Victoria Feodorovna as well as that of her husband Grand Duke Kirill Vladimirovich!

How quintessentially English they sound - reminiscent of the early broadcasts from Alexandra Palace (not that I was around then !)

Yes they do sound quintessentially English indeed...I enjoyed hearing Victoria Melita's rolling Rs...it reminded me of how it was always said Edward VII rolled his Rs.
