Part 2

Andrew Rawnsley's second film examines Tony Blair's attempts to deliver on his public service pledges of improving schools and healthcare, and his deteriorating relationship with Gordon Brown. The programme charts Blair's final months in power, the growing clamour for his departure timetable and the semi-coup orchestrated by his own chancellor. It also looks at one of Blair's most notable achievements: the negotiation of a historic agreement between the rival factions in Northern Ireland.
