Sky has revealed a first look teaser for ‘This England’ (formerly This Sceptred Isle) which will air later this year on Sky Atlantic and streaming service NOW.

The series, based on Boris Johnson’s tumultuous first months as UK Prime Minister, traces the impact on Britain of the first wave of the Coronavirus pandemic.

The drama takes us inside the halls of power, as Johnson (Kenneth Branagh) grapples with Covid-19, Brexit, and a controversial personal and political life. The events in government are interwoven with stories from around the UK, from the experts and scientists racing against time to understand the virus; the doctors, nurses and care-home workers on the frontline working tirelessly and heroically to contain and overcome it; and ordinary people whose lives were thrown into turmoil.

Co-written and directed by Michael Winterbottom and stars BAFTA and Academy Award-winner Kenneth Branagh.
