Description

Michael Cockerell is Britain's most celebrated TV documentary-maker, with a string of awards for his witty and eye-opening profiles of our Prime Ministers and other top politicians. 'You are no one in British politics until you've been Cockerelled,' said one newspaper. Drawing on his unique experience of having filmed and interviewed all of the past ten Prime Ministers, Cockerell reveals how Margaret Thatcher flirted with him on screen but attacked him by name in the Commons; how before the invasion of Iraq, Tony Blair told Cockerell he would willingly 'pay the blood price' demanded by President Bush over Iraq; how David Cameron admitted that he took from Cockerell's profile of Enoch Powell the advice that you should always make a big speech on a full bladder; and how Boris Johnson admitted he had doubts about his own ability to be Prime Minister.
