The forthcoming major film The Iron Lady features a critically acclaimed performance by Meryl Streep as British Prime
Minister Margaret Thatcher – The Iron Lady of the Western World. From her humble beginnings as a Grocer’s daughter from
Grantham, Margaret Thatcher fought her way through the murky world of politics, the sexist prejudices of the Conservative
Party elite and the scepticism of the British electorate to become the greatest British Prime Minister since Winston Churchill.
Margaret Thatcher - The Iron Lady is the first major documentary to look back on the development and impact of this
remarkable woman, whom commentators of both the political left and right agree changed the face of 20th Century politics
forever. Featuring many excerpts from her powerful speeches and insightful contributions from her political supporters and
detractors, a portrait emerges of a woman whose strength of conviction eventually became her weakness.
This programme includes intimate footage of the Thatchers at home in Number 10, and unseen footage from her emotional
and first major interview after her resignation as Prime Minister with Michael Brunson in 1992.
