Ken Livingstone and Kate Hudson
Sunday 29th March, 2pm
Ken Livingstone was leader of the Greater London Council (GLC) from 1981 until it was abolished in 1986. In 2000 he was elected Mayor of London, serving two terms. He now presents a weekly radio show on LBC.
Kate Hudson is the General Secretary of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) and National Secretary of Left Unity
Tony Benn, the longest serving Labour MP in history, is also, arguably, the most popular UK politician of all time. Across the globe and in particular over the last five years his brand of socialism has struck a cord with people of all ages and social backgrounds. For the first time ever through intimate, quasi confessional interviews and his personal, photographic and film archive Will And Testament reveals a very human face behind the political mask.
In this feature length film, Tony Benn also criss-crosses the UK bearing witness to major social and political upheavals and events. This documentary is an exclusive and deeply personal look at the life of a national treasure, a frank, candid and sometimes painful exploration of the great themes of life that affected him and affect us all, love, loss, hopes, dreams, fears and death. Never before has a person of his calibre and reputation spoken to camera in such a direct way.
