An engrossing portrait of two of the 19th centuryâs greatest politicians and Prime Ministers, William Gladstone and Benjamin Disraeli, and their struggle to outdo each other over 40-odd years. Presented by Huw Edwards, this extensive film concentrates on how these two ambitious and patriotic men changed the course of British politics, Gladstone by creating the Liberal Party, Disraeli by formulating a more progressive notion of Conservatism that would last well into the 20th century.
