BRIAN AND MARGARET
FIRST TRAILER FROM NEW TV SERIES
Channel 4 will release it sometime this year, but we have the first trailer from their two part mini series BRIAN AND MARGARET by
Stephen Frears, which features Steve Coogan as Brian Walden, the much feared inquisitor and Harriet Walter as prime minister Margaret Thatcher.
The series is based on Rob Burley’s book Why is This Lying Bastard Lying to Me?: Searching for the Truth on Political TV.



THE STORY OF THE SERIES IS SET
in
1989. When Brian and Margaret came together for their last ever TV
interview, little did they know they were about to embark on one of the
most
famous political exchanges of all time. The 45-minute showdown
became a national talking point and set in train a series of events that
ended with Margaret’s resignation. Afterwards, they never spoke again…

I remember you wrote about this a while ago...it could be an interesting one..that guy looked pretty mean, but she was sure not an easy target.
ReplyDeleteNot mean ,just trying to bust that evil, vile woman.
DeleteProbably not for me. I remember when she was in office. So many people hated her.
ReplyDeleteAnd deservedly so, she was evil and heartless.
DeleteI've been looking forward to this one. He stuck it to her good if it lead to her resignation.
ReplyDeleteShould have done it even earlier.
