  Professional cynic and satirist Marcus Brigstocke is forced to meet some of his political targets and reassess his own prejudices about the character of politicians, in this two-part edition of Westminster Hour ­ On Closer Inspection.

  Marcus may spend his professional life lambasting politicians, but he never gets the chance to see them in their natural habitat. So, political reporter Mandy Baker introduces him to the ways of Westminster: in the Commons chamber; at news conferences; in the corridors; and, of course, at the bar.

  This is a witty and irreverent insight into the Westminster "village" for a cynic who may just be converted.

  Presenter/Marcus Brigstocke, Producer/Mandy Baker
