Disraeli - The Complete Series

Emmy-nominated TV dramatization of the life of Benjamin D'Israeli starring Ian McShane. Disraeli, the only person of Jewish lineage ever to hold prime-ministership of Britain, was also a well-known figure in Victorian literary and social circles, being a writer of some note. This series encompasses his personal life as well as his public life in a semi-fictional tale of passion, glory, greed and ambition.
