A controversial BBC drama that hasn’t been seen on screens since it first aired more than 20 years ago is returning.

A BBC political drama that first aired in 2002 is finally returning to screens The Project was a two-part 2002 TV drama directed by Peter Kosminsky from a script by Leigh Jackson. It starred Matthew Macfadyen, Naomie Harris and Paloma Baeza and followed the lives of a group of young Labour party activists from their final days of university to Westminster’s corridors of power.

It followed New Labour’s rise to power and the landslide victory of 1997 The director also said he would like to reboot the series for the Starmer era. After rewatching The Project, Kosminsky said he was ‘shocked by the coincidence of the situation’ seeing Labour come to power ‘after a long, frustrating period of opposition with high hopes but also announcing that it would stick to Tory spending limits’.
