- Synopsis:
- Brought up in a remote Welsh village, on his way to the top Lloyd George (Philip Madoc) inspires both hysterical adoration and an enmity bordering on bloodlust. A passionate social reformer, his struggle to lift the spectres of poverty and the workhouse provokes the ire of the political establishment, while his indefatigable womanising fills many a gossip column; his political dexterity as the Liberal prime minister of a wartime coalition government, however, will raise him to a new level of power and influence.

Looked its Age - The Life and Times of David Lloyd George review by CP Customer
Interesting set of episodes covering the political and private life of David Lloyd George from his early years in North Wales through to his election as an MP and the major roles he played in British Politics for years including a spell as Prime Minister during part of WW1 and the subsequent peace conference. His colourful private life was also covered! My one regret that whilst covering the work he did to try and resolve the Irish issue was covered the famous cabinet meeting that took place in Inverness's Council chamber was given the due it deserved!
