In this photo released by Kudos/BBC taken in March 2012, actors Dominic West, Romola Garai and Ben Whishaw pose for a photograph onset of the BBC programme The Hour, Hornsey Town Hall, London. A newsroom drama/political thriller about the staff of a current affairs TV program, "The Hour" gained attention last year when it debuted for its resonant story lines and distinctive retro style. The latter aspect - all mid-century modern interiors, sensuous silk dresses and slim suits - prompted the show to be dubbed, inevitably, a British "Mad Men."

Conservative Party leader David Cameron 's crop of new candidates are a group of young, multiethnic professionals who he hopes can shed the Tories' image as a "nasty party" stuffed with rich, aging white men from privileged backgrounds. The aspiring legislators vow to stir up Britain's sometimes staid politics, and perhaps unsettle their leadership — with hard-line views on Europe, immigration and climate change that often don't stack up with Cameron's message of a more compassionate, greener conservatism.(AP Photo/Scott Heppell)Britain Conservative Party candidate Rory Stewart, is seen as he tour's his prospective constituency, meeting the people who live and work in the area, Greystoke, England, Friday April 16, 2010.
