NT Live’s Hansard

Live Broadcast

It’s a summer morning in 1988 and a Tory politician is home in the idyllic house he shares with his wife of 30 years. But all is not as blissful as it seems: As the day goes on, what starts as gentle ribbing quickly turns to blood sport. With two-time Olivier Award winners Lindsay Duncan (BBC’s Sherlock, Le Week-End) and Alex Jennings (The Queen, The Lady in the Van), this witty, devastating portrait of the ruling class is directed by Simon Godwin (NT Live: Antony & Cleopatra, NT Live: Twelfth Night).
