Supermarket manager Ros Pritchard decides to run for Parliament in this miniseries' first episode, which launches MASTERPIECE THEATRE's newest season of classical and contemporary works of fiction.
Fed up with petty politicians, supermarket manager Ros Pritchard
(Jane Horrocks, Little Voice , "Absolutely Fabulous") runs
for Parliament with the slogan "politics isn't rocket science."
More than 150 other candidates join her feminist Purple Democratic
Alliance, making Ros the new prime minister. As Ros recoils at her
daunting responsibilities, the queen persuades her to give it a go.
