(https://twinit-images.global.ssl.fastly.net/uploads/drawing_photo/photo/21159/viceroy-prize4.jpg?crop=&fit=crop&h=420&w=560) One lucky winner will win an overnight night stay in a Superior Room at the Stamford Plaza Brisbane and a Traditional Lobby Afternoon High Tea Experience for two plus a double movie pass to see Viceroy’s House. Spend a luxurious afternoon at Stamford Plaza Brisbane indulging in the revival of a traditional Brisbane High Tea. Viceroy’s House in Delhi was the home of the British rulers of India. After 300 years, that rule was coming to an end. For 6 months in 1947, Lord Mountbatten (Hugh Bonneville), great grandson of Queen Victoria, assumed the post of the last Viceroy, charged with handing India back to its people. Mountbatten lived upstairs together with his wife Edwina (Gillian Anderson) and daughter. Downstairs lived their 500 Hindu, Muslim and Sikh servants. As the political elite took their seats to wrangle over the birth of independent India, conflict erupted throughout the House and a decision was taken that would have global repercussions. Partition – the decision to divide India and create the new Muslim homeland of Pakistan – led to the largest mass migration in human history.
