When Boris Met Dave

AIR Post Production are pleased to announce we have just completed post production on another fantastic programme entitled When Boris Met Dave

This 90 minute docu -drama looks at the early lives of the two men who would go on to be the most powerful Conservative politicians in the country: Boris Johnson and David Cameron.

The More 4 docudrama is the first dramatised depiction of the Tory leader and looks at the student experiences of Cameron and his contemporary Boris Johnson, now the mayor of London, in the late 1980s. The programme dramatises the Conservative MPs’ school and university years, including their time at Oxford University’s notorious Bullingdon Club.

The new drama goes back two decades to examine the roots of this partnership. "We have talked to those who knew them at the time to document the roots of the two men at the forefront of the current recovery of the Tory party," said director John Dower.

"Everyone has seen the famous Bullingdon Club picture, but this film goes behind the scenes to find out what Oxford was really like for David Cameron and Boris Johnson."

Jonny Sweet, a comic actor featured in E4's The Inbetweeners, will play Cameron, while Johnson will be portrayed by Christian Brassington.

The programme is produced by Blink Films and AIR post provided an end-to-end post production service.

When Boris Met Dave will be broadcast on More4 at 9pm on 7 October
