The Crown

Episode 5 of 6

Miles Jupp stars as Henry Tobin, Britain’s shortest serving and least successful former prime minister.

What happens when the prime minister suddenly stops being prime minister? One day you're the most powerful person in the country, the next you're irrelevant, forced into retirement 30 years ahead of schedule and find yourself asking 'What do I do now?'

"I can't just disappear like Gordon Brown. They say he barely gets out of bed now. Just sits there doing word-searches and eating Kit Kat Chunkies. Miserable. I hate the chunky ones." Former British Prime Minister Henry Tobin

This week, drama follows Henry in the form of an actor trying to get under his skin.

Starring Miles Jupp, Ingrid Oliver, Emma Sidi, Justin Edwards and Fergus Craig.
