Blair will feature "a number of open and candid interviews" in which "Tony Blair looks back on his dramatic decade in power, considering both domestic and international events, alongside the challenges of governing a democracy."

Blair administration insiders, international politicians and critics will take part in the series which the BBC has billed as "the definitive television history of the Blair years."
