Episode 3 - 2008-2013
John O'Farrell looks back at the last 20 years in British politics, to try to make sense of where we are now.

Hope was in plentiful supply but 2008 would still bring a series of financial blows from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Worse still, Gordon Brown forgot all about Prudence on the campaign trail.
