Synopsis:

In 1929, Winston Churchill believed that his political career was finished. Buried by his political rivals and cut off by his enemies, Churchill was out of power, nearly broke and politically isolated. Ten years later, his brilliance and unconquerable spirit would lead the world in its desperate fight against Hitler. His life over this ten year period is an amazing and intimate story of political intrigue and personal courage. Originally broadcast as a TV drama and starring Robert Hardy as Churchill, this four DVD box set brings you over six hours programming offering a fascinating insight into the complex man.

The story of Winston Churchill's life between 1929, when he lost his cabinet position, and 1939, when he became Great Britain's prime minister - a period he described as the most difficult in his life.
