Episode four of Victoria season three will be airing in America on Sunday, February 3 at 9pm Eastern Time. ITV has not yet shared an air date for Victoria season three in the UK, which means fans will have to be patient for the Jenna Coleman series to come back. This is the first time Victoria has aired in the US before hitting screens in its native Britain.
