Episode description

The Political Editors is half a century of politics told by the people who wrote the first draft of history for the Times.


Over the festive period we're re-releasing the entire series.


In the third episode, Westminster veteran Sir Peter Riddell tells Matt about his time charting the dramatic end to the Thatcher era, underestimating John Major, Labour coming back from the wilderness, and how the job of covering politics has changed over the years.
