On April 2, 1982, Britain went to war to regain the Falkland Islands. This movie is a gripping account of how Prime Minister Rt Hon Margaret Thatcher MP's government handled the biggest crisis in British foreign affairs since the Suez Canal. It tells the story of how Argentina, an ally of the British, fought the Conservative government and invaded the Falklands. This play charts the backroom maneuverings between Thatcher's government and the military, between the British and the Americans, and the Americans and the Argentinians that led to a breakdown in diplomacy, to war, and to Britain's eventual victory.
The key characters in The Falklands Play are Rt. Hon Margaret Thatcher (Prime Minister) (Patricia Hodge), Rt Hon William Whitelaw CH MC MP (Home Secretary) (John Standing), Rt Hon Nicholas Ridley MP (Financial Secretary to the Treasury) (Michael Cochrane).
