Like him or loathe him, Boris Johnson has been a controversial figure over the past two decades, with many career highs and lows, as well as various scandals, including high-profile affairs, political gaffes and, of course, Partygate.

This week, C4’s in-depth four-part docuseries lays bare the former Prime Minister’s unconventional childhood, his career and his eventful private life.

There are intriguing contributions from political enemies and friends. But perhaps the most fascinating interviews are with Petronella Wyatt and Jennifer Arcuri, who both had affairs with Johnson.
