O ovoj seriji

Ian Richardson is Machiavellian monster Francis Urquhart up to his cold-fish eyes in a dirty political pond of back-stabbing, skulduggery and corruption in high places. Like Olivier's Richard III, he confides to the viewer his plot to eliminate his rivals, determined to get to the top, and, once there, stay there, no matter who gets hurt in the process. His victims include two beautiful mistresses and even the King. This satirical trilogy won numerous awards, and was brilliantly adapted by Andrew Davies from Michael Dobbs' novels.
