From satire to serious drama, telly has given us some brilliant made-up leaders. Rank them by who'd actually get your cross in the box.
Put the items in your preferred order.
Jim Hacker
The bumbling but well-meaning PM constantly outmanoeuvred by Sir Humphrey. Relatable, at least.
Francis Urquhart
Ruthless, scheming, and utterly magnetic. You might well think that; I couldn't possibly comment.
Tom Dawkins
A reluctant deputy PM thrust into power, battling shadowy corporate interests. Proper thriller stuff.
Harry Perkins
The socialist Sheffield steelworker who takes on the establishment. A cult favourite for the idealists.
Tom Davis
Actually Mrs Pritchard, a supermarket manager who accidentally becomes PM. Anti-politics fantasy at its finest.
