The marriage of tattoo artist Danny (Douglas Hanshall) and dressmaker Hannah (Catherine McCormack) gets off to a less-than-inspiring start when Danny finds out Hannah has already been fooling around with a friend's husband, so Danny takes a walk and Hannah splits with a friend to get drunk. At the airport, where the newly-weds were supposed to leave for a honeymoon, Danny meets a cleaning woman named Mary (Kathy Burke) and is immediately infatuated, while Hannah is picked up by a scruffy artist named Cameron (Dougray Scott).

Margaret
7.1/10
A detailed and compelling portrait of one of the most formidable characters in British politics as she faces her final days in power.

His resignation speech sparks a chain of events that leads to the overthrow of Britain's first woman prime minister.

Drama starring Lindsay Duncan.
