Summary
Keir Starmer may be ahead in the polls, but nearly half of voters say they still don't think he looks like a prime minister in waiting. Matt hears advice on how to look the part from experts from the worlds of fashion and photography, and Thatcher's biographer Charles Moore explains how the Iron Lady changed her voice.
Plus Columnists Rachel Sylvester and Robert Colvile on what Russell Brand is like in person, why Robert is obsessed with a Labour Party video from 1997, and what has happened to the Conservative Party after 13 years in government.
