I'm getting a lot of.enjoyment out of this series just now:
The Rise & Fall of Boris Johnson
It takes you back to his childhood and traces his progress through university, into journalism, into Parliament, becoming Lord Mayor of London and finally back to parliament and prime minister.
It's like the Rake's Progress or the Adventures of Tom Jones, filled with unbelievable scenarios but always the rollicking , fun-loving , compulsively outrageous behaviour of a man who came from a very modest background to become President of the Oxford Union, which is unbelievable in itself other than by the explanation that people just loved him fro start to finish
Very well worth watching and I can guarantee you, unless you are a very boring person indeed, a lot of laughs.
Surprisingly it's on ABC iView.
