At 10:30pm on STV tonight an extract from new play ‘The Confessions of Gordon Brown’ followed by a panel discussion will be aired.

In a candid portrait of life inside Downing Street, Gordon Brown ‘hilariously’ exposes the darkest secrets of being Prime Minister, the stab-in-the-back plotting, the betrayals and most importantly – the hair gel.

attfa174The company producing the play said:- “Love him or loathe him, Gordon Brown was our greatest failure at being Prime Minister in 200 years. In this searing satire of the hidden arts of modern political leadership, Gordon at last reveals what it takes to knife your way to the top and rule a nation. And how his dream of power ran awry.”

Starring Ian Grieve as Gordon Brown the brand new one-man play by acclaimed Emmy nominated Scots writer and director Kevin Toolis is on from 31July – 26 August 2013 at The Pleasance Courtyard (13:45)
