Am I mistaken, or isn't that Jonathan Firth (younger brother of Colin) playing Albert?

No, it's Rupert Friend. I believe Jonathan Firth played Albert in a TV series a couple of years ago, but I'm not sure .

I tend to avoid costume period dramas, but Young Victoria has a degree of humanization making it far more enjoyable and relatable than others of its kind.
