This animation by Richard Williams for the 1968 movie is a real treat and I encourage all of you history fans to watch it - it's a work of genius. Using the style of line drawing popular in the 19th century it manages to show the diplomatic scene as well as showing Victorian England in all its industrial glory. My ancestors all started work as carting boys underground and this is depicted alongside all the other hellish ways of earning a crust in Imperial Britain. Is there a better opening title sequence ever? Ich don't think so...
