Miles Jupp stars as Henry Tobin, Britain鈥檚 shortest serving and least successful former Prime Minister.
What happens when the Prime Minister suddenly stops being Prime Minister? One day you're the most powerful person in the country, the next you're irrelevant, forced into retirement 30 years ahead of schedule and find yourself asking 'What do I do now?'
"I can't just disappear like Gordon Brown. They say he barely gets out of bed now. Just sits there doing word-searches and eating Kit Kat Chunkies. Miserable. I hate the chunky ones." Former British Prime Minister Henry Tobin.
Henry hopes that an invitation to make a speech will be the passport he needs to a regular slot on the international lecture circuit.
