Curiosità

Reg is a one-off BBC Television fact-based drama about the campaign by Reg Keys to obtain answers following the death of his son Tom in the Iraq War, by standing in the 2005 general election as an anti-war independent candidate in Sedgefield, a constituency held by the then Prime Minister, Tony Blair.

Production

Keys was portrayed by Academy Award-nominated actor Tim Roth and the programme was scripted by Jimmy McGovern. Talking on BBC radio programme Front Row in June 2016 about creating the drama, McGovern said: "I first thought about it over eight years ago and I went down to see Reg and I tried to start it, but for some reason I just couldn't seem to start it. But it was always at the back of my mind: 'I know I've got to tell this man's story'".
