Two Actors. Two World Leaders. One Black Dog. London, 1939. Winston Churchill looks in the mirror, realises that only he can steer our great nation through it’s darkest hour and steels himself for the hard road ahead. Bristol, 2012.

Stu Mcloughlin looks in the mirror and realises that he’ll have to grow a little moustache.
