About The Gang of Three
Prime Minister, Harold Wilson sent shock throughout the government and the United Kingdom when he made the decision to resign in 1976, what followed him was a political sensation. The Gang of Three follows the feuding cabinet giants – Roy Jenkins, Denis Healey and Tony Crosland as they meet to discuss who should succeed him.
