Michael Winterbottom co-wrote and directed This England, a Sky Original drama, starring BAFTA and Academy Award winner Kenneth Branagh. The series follows the impact of the first wave of the Coronavirus epidemic on Britain, and is based on Boris Johnson's rocky first months as UK Prime Minister.
As Johnson (Branagh) deals with Covid-19, Brexit, and a tumultuous personal and political life, the drama brings us inside the halls of power. The events in government are interwoven with stories from across the UK, including experts and scientists racing against time to understand the virus; doctors, nurses, and care-home workers on the frontlines working tirelessly and heroically to contain and overcome it; and ordinary people whose lives have been turned upside down.
