Drama punishes Blair for Iraq war crimes

A NEW TV drama is set to make uncomfortable viewing for Tony Blair — it sees him extradited to The Hague over the Iraq war.

Set in 2010, The Trial Of Tony Blair, starring Robert Lindsay, sees the former premier plagued by nightmares about the war and fears that he will be killed by a suicide bomber.

Viewers of the controversial More4 drama will also see Mr Blair convert to Catholicism to seek forgiveness for his sins.
