In this episode Nigel and Sarah review the party leaders' performance in their latest television grilling, discuss the Tory betting scandal, and react to yet another set of eyebrow-raising opinion polls. Could the Conservatives really be reduced to just 53 MPs? Plus, some advice on when to sleep during the election dramas, and our regular trip back to the 1997 General Election campaign, where the Tory campaign is on the brink of meltdown, with John Major publicly pleading with his party to unite behind him. Nigel shares his memories of being in the room for the astonishing campaign press conference.
