Anne Thomas

Imagine...John Lennon's childhood. Liverpool, 1955: a smart and troubled fifteen-year-old is hungry for experience. In a family full of secrets, two incredible women clash over John (Aaron Johnson): Mimi (Kristin Scott Thomas), the buttoned-up aunt who raised him, and Julia (Anne-Marie Duff), the prodigal mother. Yearning for a normal family, John escapes into the new and exciting world of rock 'n' roll where his fledgling genius finds a kindred spirit in the teenage Paul McCartney (Thomas Brodie Sangster). Just as John begins his new life, tragedy strikes. But a resilient young man finds his voice - and an icon explodes into the world.

MSNBC s Thomas Roberts talks to a political power panel, including Jamal Simmons, democratic strategist, S.E. Cupp, conservative commentator and New York Daily News columnist, and Anne Kornblut, Deputy National Political Editor for the Washington Post, about the campaigns ad wars over Bain.

Leslie Titmuss (David Threlfall, Shameless) has never quite fit in among the denizens of Rapstone village. Socially awkward and hailing from a humble background, he nonetheless aspires to the highest levels of society--and he's prepared to do whatever it takes to get there. For much of his life, Titmuss was taken under the wing of the kindly Reverend Simcox (Michael Hordern, Anne of the Thousand Days). This caused little concern for the clergyman's sons, Henry (Peter Egan, A Perfect Spy) and Fred (Paul Shelley, A Tale of Two Cities). But when their father dies, they have every reason to complain: he has willed the family fortune to Titmuss. Was he mad? Or is there a darker explanation? Follow the families' interwoven histories from the years after WWII to the height of the Thatcher era. Nominated for four BAFTAs, Paradise Postponed and its sequel, Titmuss Regained also star Kristin Scott Thomas (The English Patient), Annette Crosbie (Edward the King), and Zoe Wanamaker (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone).
