George Bush has been assassinated. Tony Blair has resigned and is on trial for his role in the war against Iraq. Sadly for some, however, this isn’t Sky News – it’s just More4, and their new Autumn schedule. Shame.

Death of a President is a fictional documentary, set in a future in which Dubya has long since been assassinated. The programme looks back over his reign of terror, and, indeed, his War on Terror, and the way in which it’s shaped the US.

The Trial of Tony Blair, meanwhile, is – well, it’s what it says on the tin. Another one-off drama, this time providing a "darkly humorous" take on what it would be like if Tony (played by Robert Lindsay) were to see the error of his ways, resign, and be forced to stand trial. Probably not so humorous for Blair himself, then, hmmm? 

Peter Dale, Head of More4 says, “These two dramas are exactly what More4 is all about – bold, imaginative and firmly engaged with the modern world.”

Both shows come to More4 this September.
