House of Cards Trilogy: The Original UK Series Remastered

Movie / Show Details

This British political drama from 1991 follows Francis Urquhart, a ruthless Conservative Party operative who manipulates his way through Westminster’s corridors of power. Adapted by Andrew Davies from Michael Dobson’s novel, the series stars Ian Richardson as the calculating Urquhart, whose contempt for weakness drives him to orchestrate the downfall of his rivals through increasingly extreme schemes. As Margaret Thatcher’s era ends and the party fractures, Urquhart stops at nothing to seize control, treating morality as an obstacle rather than a boundary.

This remastered DVD collection contains all four discs of the original trilogy on BBC Video, rated 8.5 on IMDb. Bonus features include commentary from Davies and Richardson on episodes from each season, plus additional content exploring the show’s impact.
