On 8 June 1987, British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher sat before a studio audience to face questions from members of the public, just three days before a general election. Peter Sissons hosted the event, which saw Mrs Thatcher debating the public on a range of topics including the death penalty, the role of referenda in deciding policy, the state of the NHS, and the economic situation in the north.
