The Thick of It Special - The Rise of the Nutters

This Christmas special of the award-winning political comedy finds Malcolm Tucker consumed by worries about the Prime Minister's departure date. Then when something goes terribly, terribly wrong on Newsnight everything begins to unravel. The PM suddenly announces his resignation, and with Hugh Abbott out of the country, all of Malcolm's machinations start to look decidedly shaky. The Prime Minister's enemies in opposition and within his own government seize the opportunity to make their bid for power.
