Inside the Commons

Lifting the Lid (1x1)

Data emisji: Lut 03, 2015

We follow two relatively new female MPs – Charlotte Leslie and Sarah Champion – learning the ways of the House. We hear from those at the top of political tree including David Cameron and Ed Miliband, who reveal what happens at prime minister's questions, and we also see behind the scenes on budget day. We meet a maintenance team abseiling down the face of Big Ben and the gospel-singing tea lady Gladys who works in the members' tea room. We also follow the Commons' most powerful official, the clerk of the house Sir Robert Rogers, whose job is to keep the whole show on the road.
