Cast

Plot

Politician, rebel, national treasure, activist, madman, genius. All these words and more have been used to describe Labour's longest-serving MP, Tony Benn. Filmed in the last years of Benn's life, Will and Testament expertly examines the controversial events that shaped his long career, for both good and bad.Tracing Britain's political landscape - from the post-war years of Benn's youth, through the 1980s miner's strikes and all the way to 2003's Iraq war - Will and Testament serves as both biography and history lesson, all filtered through the prism of Tony Benn's singular world view.
