Tony Blair: Rock Star

Tony Blair: Rock Star

Tony Blair

Featuring interviews with people close to Tony Blair during his time between school and university, this comedy documentary recreates the days when Blair's dream was to hear the roar of the crowd as he took to the stage as a rock god.

The film follows Blair's development as a rebel without a band while at school, where he discovered his ability to imitate Mick Jagger, through his career as a proto rock-promoter to his audition to be lead singer of Ugly Rumours while at university.

Inter-cut with documentary interviews are dramatic reconstructions of Blair's musical journey directed by Alison Jackson. The programme also features never-before-seen photos and a recording of his earliest performance.
