Tony Britton won a BAFTA nomination for his central performance in this finely observed drama about a veteran Labour back-bencher who risks the remains of his career when he re-engages in the grass-roots poIitics of his northern working-class constituency.
Starting life as a singIe ITV Playhouse drama which won the Broadcasting Press Guild's award for Best Single PIay in 1975, The Nearly Man foIlows the events of seven months in a criticaI year for Christopher CoIlinson a pubIic-schooI MP with the perfect credentiaIs for a candidate in the forthcoming general eIection. The series charts his uneasy reIationship with party activists, the intrigues and aggression of poIitics and the impact of Collinson's renewed ambition upon his marriage.
This set features alI seven episodes of the series along with the single play, devised and written by BAFTA winner Arthur Hopcraft. |
