Prophetic
This is as brilliant now as it was when it was made all those years ago. The special features include a reasonably long interview with the author of the book (Labour MP Chris Mullins), in which he notes how several of the things predicted in it have come true, though the vision of a Labour government is very different from the one we ended up getting. Whether you saw it the first time round or not, this is essential viewing for anyone with the slightest appreciation for classic British drama.

Classic
Very atmospheric 'period' drama. Excellent acting and portrays the gloom and downbeat UK of the 1980s.
Very thought provoking and worth putting aside a couple of hours on a cold winter evening. -
