Pilot

Series 1, episode 1

Written by Aaron Sorkin

Directed by Thomas Schlamme

Originally Aired On: Wednesday, 22 September 1999

To mark the end of the multi Emmy award-winning drama, More4 hosts a West Wing day, featuring some of the best ever episodes from the long-running series. Kicking-off this West Wing bonanza is the first ever pilot show. While the President and his staff struggle to deal with a deepening humanitarian crisis, as Cuban refugees seek to flee to Florida in the middle of a hurricane, Josh says a bad, bad thing on national television, while Sam has a liaison with a woman he later finds out is a call girl and embarrasses himself in front of Leo's daughter.
