"Great Political Mistakes" tells the fascinating stories of three of Britain's most notorious Prime Ministers, and delves into their defining moments, which ultimately became part of political history during the twentieth century. The program follows Winston Churchill and his opposition to India's independence in the 1930s and his support of King Edward in the abdication crises; Clement Attlee and the signing of the Anglo-American loan agreement which led to the domination of the dollar in international markets and the subservient relationship of Britain to the United States; Margret Thatcher and her unwavering support for the Poll tax - an inflexibility that played a major part in her downfall. - Actors:
