Margaret (2009, BBC) Reaction To Geoffrey Howe's Resignation Speech

From the critically acclaimed 2009 drama Margaret, starring actress Lindsay Duncan as Margaret Thatcher. The film is set during Thatcher's final and tumultuous month in power during November 1990.
This small excerpt shows Thatcher's irate reaction to Sir Geoffrey Howe's famous resignation speech, in which he mocked the prime minister with a cricket metaphor.
Directed by James Kent and written by Richard Cottan.

Margaret Thatcher was married to Darth Sidious, it all makes sense now.

[@1987AnimeBoy]

Actually, it's TC-14 married to Darth Sidious.

You made me laugh aloud...

[@Jamietheroadrunner]

Thatcher makes Darth Sidious look like a Boy Scout.

[@SuperEverton1976]

Margaret, did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise?

[@ackbarfan5556]

Ian McDiarmid (Emperor Palpatine) as Denis Thatcher!

[@jackielana9993]

Young Jon Royce and Mr. Salt consult Mrs. Thatcher and Palpatine on how to continue Order 66 now that Howe’s told the Jedi Council.

Nice acting. Yup, Thatcher underestimated her second in command for one minute and it blew up in her face.

[@blueknight07]

Lindsey Duncan is a superb actress!!

[@BCLICK56]

Can someone tell me who the gentlemen in the first scene are?

[@justicepartyuk]

good film, entertaining

[@amyclarke41]

ok

[@Afroman29]

Margaret, EXECUTE ORDER 66!

[@margaretwhite7115]

Good Film.I think

[@aperson22222]

Gillian Anderson was better.

[@nickdu83]

Meryl Streep is better, mimics, face, "oxbridge" accent,she's just perfect !

[@danh5637]

Oh dear that was a very poorly acted Thatcher

[@christianealshut1123]

Yes, I agree, Duncan is an excellent actress, but as Margaret Thatcher she cannot hold a candle to Meryl Streep. But Ian McDiarmid turns in a much better Dennis than Jim Broadbent did. Hed and ;eryl Streep would have gone together perfectly in the lead roles.

[@Doomedcreatures]

She sounds nothing like thatcher , voice is the easiest part
