Winston Churchill - The Wilderness Years - Vol. 1: Down And Out / Politics Are Foul
This miniseries is based on Sir Martin Gilbert's acclaimed biography of Winston Churchill. Covering his "wilderness years," the period between 1933 and 1939, the series begins as Churchill (Robert Hardy) resigns from his post as Chancellor of the Exchequer and heads into an uncertain political future. Absorbing and well acted, WINSTON CHURCHILL: THE WILDERNESS YEARS is a fascinating portrait of the 20th century's greatest political figure during that century's most troubled time. The collection features the first two episodes of the series.
