Do You Still Believe in Tony?

on BBC Two England

Award-winning documentary maker Michael Cockerell fronts two reports on Tony Blair's ten years as Labour leader.
In 1997, the promise was that "things can only get better".
But trust in the Prime Minister has been damaged by claims that he led the country to war under false pretences. In this first film, arts and media luminaries who helped Labour to power - including Melvyn Bragg, Harry Enfield, Rory Bremner, Max Hastings, Antonia Fraser and Katharine Hamnett discuss whether or not they still have faith in Tony Blair.
The second film, Friends and Neighbours, considers the premier's turbulent political and personal relationship with Chancellor Gordon Brown. Neil Kinnock and former Downing Street insiders including Derek Scott, Charlie Whelan and Lance Price are among the contributors revealing unexpected sides to the two men.
(Coverage of the Labour Party conference, Monday 11.30am)
