Feature-length BBC drama depicting the relationships between former
British prime minister Tony Blair (Michael Sheen) and American
president Bill Clinton (Dennis Quaid). Set in the pre-9/11 years
from 1994 to 2001, the film focuses on the international presence
of Blair in relation to his American ally. While Clinton is almost
toppled from power by the Monica Lewinsky scandal, Blair continues
to strengthen his position, moving seamlessly from being Clinton's
acolyte to his equal, and eventually his moral superior in the
aftermath of Kosovo.

The cops of Hollywood Station are still over-worked, under-staffed,
bound by red tape, hobbled by political correctness, and constantly
amazed by what the boulevards can throw at them. Scratch the
surface of the 'reel' Hollywood and you'll discover the 'real'
Hollywood. Here, Mickey Mouse is a crack addict, Marilyn Monroe is
a man and when the moon is full, the neighbourhood gets even
weirder. When the legendary Oracle is replaced by Sgt. Jason
'Chickenlips' Treakle - a politically correct, paper shuffling putz
with a shiny shoe fetish - Nate 'Hollywood' Weiss leaves the
mid-watch to become a Crow, or Community Relations Officer
(C.R.O.). These are the guys dealing with domestic disputes,
busting stalkers, bouncing paparazzi and calming chronic
complainers, wannabe cops and loons of all varieties. It should be
easy duty - to the other cops it's 'the sissie beat' - but being
Hollywood, the loons are not in short supply and not everything is
at is seems. So when Hollywood Nate and fellow crow Bix Rumstead
find themselves caught up with bombshell Margot Aziz, they think
they're just having some fun. To them, Margot is a harmless hill
bunny, stuck in the middle of an ugly divorce from a nefarious
strip-club-owner. But Margot's no helpless victim: the femme fatale
is setting them up so she can pull off the perfect murder and walk
away with her ex-husband's ill-won fortune. But Margot isn't the
only one with a deadly plan.

Vice-President of the United States. Her problem? Someone wants the
VP dead.
