Directed by Niall MacCormick

Running Time: 80 minutes (approx)

Production Year: 2008

Satirical drama based on Margaret Thatcher's early years in politics. Young Margaret wants nothing more than to be an MP, but may be too much of a rebel for the Conservative Party of the 1950s. She didn't have a 'good war', she's interested in politics and she thinks a woman's place can be in the House as well as the home.
