Read viewers' comments

Stranger than fiction but rooted in fact, A Very Social Secretary is the portrayal of a political scandal that spun out of control and straight on to the front pages for press and public scrutiny. It contains hilarious observations of high government, party politics and media frenzy. Written by Alistair Beaton (Downwardly Mobile, Feelgood).

Says Beaton: "Tory ministers used to find scandal in low places. New Labour prefers to get its trotters into the top trough. This film explores how Blunkett became a metaphor for Tony Blair's decadent regime."

Cast
Bernard Hill - David Blunkett, Robert Lindsay - Tony Blair, Victoria Hamilton - Kimberly Quinn.
