Summary:
"No one knows political intrigue better than Jeffrey Archer, the internationally bestselling author and erstwhile British politician who has seen his share of scandal firsthand. This 10-part adaptation of Archer's blockbuster novel exposes the sex, money, and power within the hallowed halls of government. Beginning in 1964, the tense drama follows the careers of four members of Parliament from their backbench days through 20-plus years of alliances and betrayals, triumphs and reversals. Each man aims to become prime minister - but only one will succeed. Two-time Oscar-nominee Tom Wilkinson (Michael Clayton, In the Bedroom), James Faulkner (The Bank Job), David Robb (Treasure Island), and Jeremy Child (Amnesia) head a fine ensemble cast as the ambitious - and occasionally unscrupulous - MPs. Crackling with realism,
