Description

Television dramatisation of the events which led to the downfall of the charismaticand flamboyant Liberal leader Jeremy Thorpe has restored his name tothe media headlines from which it was rarely absent in his political prime.Despite being acquitted on charges of conspiracy and incitement to murderduring a sensational trial at the Old Bailey in 1979, Thorpe was subsequentlyexcluded from all political and public life - a fate described by one politicalcommentator as 'infamous and unfair."The consequences of an alleged homosexual affair (at a time when such actswere illegal) has coloured and distorted perceptions of a man described as astylish, progressive and popular politician, with a deep lifetime commitment toclassic liberal principles. His leadership of the Liberals laid the foundation for therevival of a party which was on the verge of extinction when he first enteredpolitical life.Philip Dalling explores the life of a man respected and admired by friend andopponent alike, whose name is still revered in the West Country constituency ofNorth Devon (which he placed firmly on the political map), and whose name stillresonates in national politics to this day.
