This film tells the extraordinary story of Victor Grayson , Socialist MP for Colne Valley from 1907 to 1910. He was a political
Phenomenon and many saw him as a future Prime Minister. Yet his
Parliamentary career lasted Just three years.
Grayson's claim to fame lies in his mysterious disappearance from public and private life. On 17
September 1920, accompanied by two men, he walked out of his fashionable London flat.
Friends and family never saw him again. Nobody appears to know why or where he went. A recent biography of Grayson by David Clark , MP reveals new evidence which answers some of the questions which have remained unanswered for over 60 years.
