Set against the aftermath of the 2010 General Election, the drama charts Nick Clegg’s rise from leader of a minor party to the man who would decide the election’s outcome.
Bertie Carvel stars as Clegg alongside Mark Dexter as David Cameron and Ian Grieve as Gordon Brown.
The 90 minute single drama is written by James Graham, the acclaimed playwright behind political hits Privacy, This House and Tory Boyz, and starts shooting this week.
