Tuesday's Documentary Written and narrated by Lord Chalfont
He was once ' Trendy' Trudeau, the darling of the press photographers and the gossip-writers. He excelled at everytibing, fast driving, high diving, canoeing, skiing, judo. He was rarely seen out without a pretty girl on his arm. He was Canada's political superstar, Prime Minister and Leader of the Canadian Liberal Party after being in Parliament for a mere two-and-a-half years.
Now, at 55, he has been in office continuously for the past seven years and has recently won an election that should keep him there almost to the end of the 70s. Now married, with two sons (both born on Christmas Day), he has matured into one of the most interesting and thoughtful leaders in power today.
Tonight's Chalfont Profile is presented while Prime Minister Trudeau is on an official visit to Britain in the course of an intensive five-nation European tour.
