The Cameron Years Explained

The airing of the programme in September coincided with The Cameron Interview on ITV.

Leading politicians connected to Cameron appeared on the programme, including George Osborne, Iain Duncan Smith, Michael Heseltine, Michael Gove, and Nick Clegg.

Reception

The New Statesman described the mini-series as "a parade of entitlement, cowardice and careerism".[1] Writing in The Times, Hugo Rifkind said of the former Prime Minister, "his poshness is in another league".[2]

The Independent's Sean O'Grady wrote "He [David Cameron] is destined to be eternally friendless. He certainly comes across as very lonely and despondent in The Cameron Years".[3]
