Synopsis: The Queen and Margaret Thatcher: did they get on?

Relive the ups and downs of the 1980’s through the eyes of two Maggies (one younger, one older) and two Lizzes (one younger, one older), with guest appearances from the Reagans, Denis Thatcher, Arthur Scargill, Gerry Adams, Geoffrey Howe, Lord Carrington, and many more.

Here is the story of what might have been said in those private weekly meetings between the two most powerful women in Britain, told with humour, wit and irreverence.

The production is kindly sponsored by Beacon Fire Protection
