Tracking Down Maggie is a 1994 documentary film by Nick Broomfield about former British prime minister Margaret Thatcher. What begins as a genuine attempt to get an interview with the so-called ‘Iron Lady’ quickly turns into a game of cat-and-mouse in the United States, with the filmmaker snubbed at every turn.

There is an evil look in her eyes. She was evil.
Well he started off saying he wanted to find out about the private side of Thatcher but half way through it became about her son and arms deals so was he being disingenuous from the start or what .. The stalker paparazzi doorstepping approach didn't get him anywhere.
Wow a car phone I knew about them but never seen one used before
Magaret thatcher sat here. Lmao! What a briliant sense of humour!
brilliant as always from Broomfield
I'm on the right but I detest politicians who use their power to make themselves and their family rich. A good example of this is the Bidens with Hunter's dealings with Barisma and the Clinton family. No wonder Maggie didn't want to get involved with an independent journalist.
Ah good old Maggot thatcher. The best recruitment officer the IRA ever had. Remember the hunger strikers. —Saoirse, West Belfast, NI
Aah the good ol days with Maggie thatcher & Rolf I’m a peodo Harris 😅
So many adverts! I might as well watch terrestrial television! Considering she had Jimmy Savil for xmas lunch at Chequers for 10 years says a lot about her. Favourite song by Rolf. The many, many paedophiles in her government. Her father was notorious for preying on young female shop staff that never went back to the shop after their first and only day there. Dennis was already a millionaire when she met him. She also worked on inventing softserve icecream. At 50% through, I'm going to go watch something else as there's more adverts than content 🙄 don't be greedy, this doco has already been paid for.
The Narrotor I no him from Documenrtys a good few Yr back he's one louie throux as well all his are gud were hav u gone Narrotor
Hats off to everyone involved in this pursuit! Persistence at its finest no matter how illusive the subjects proved to be! I have the utmost respect for you all!
That woman (MT) needed to be left alone. This was pure harassment. It is evident she wanted you all to leave her alone, and this should have been done. Forget your documentary!
Mr. Broomfield’s docs are good.
What a waste of my time. Whoever paid this reporter to hound Margaret Thatcher should ask for all monies returned. And whom ever calls this a documentary with any relevant information is clueless.
It's interesting that she wanted to be an actress when younger.
I actually saw her do a sketch of sorts with the two stars of Yes Minister and she was surprisingly good and spot on with her lines.Too good in my view.
I have seen Broomfields other docs on Kurt Cobain, Tupac Shakur and Heidi Fleiss but wasn't aware of this.
Trying to interview Margaret Thatcher must have been an odious, thankless task.
I never liked Thatcher but Her response in Parliament to the jibe at her was a wise one.
21:24 I do love her sense of humour 😂
So basically you were stalking her. If I did that I’d get arrested.
Now in 2022 it's Joe & Hunter Biden
She was a tough lady, punished and ridiculed for being a woman. But, England was spiraling around the drain. She was able to kick the can farther down the road. Socialism was starved off for a while longer. Such a shame that England wouldn't listen to the voice of reason. She wasn't lovable, but people don't need loveable leaders, they need strong ones. The left, liberals and those who hate freedom will always hate and try to destroy those leaders who are willing to administer tough love to make sure that Freedom endures. God Bless you, Margaret Thatcher, Winston Churchill, Ronald Reagan, Donald Trump…
I'd be curious to know how Margaret Thatcher went from being a housewife to a prime minister and it seemed like something that could have been flushed out in more detail without chasing people down . You cant really make people do what they don't want to and I think he really blew it with her hairdressing appointment . On the flip side it must be hard to be a relative of someone famous and have to deal with pesky reporters always disturbing your privacy .
I know Margaret Thatcher she didn't want to talk to every reporter. Thank you !!!! You did a great job trying to interview Thatcher's life style. I know the information was private. You were brave talking to sniffer he was legit but you working out with him. Even though she said no press you still shown up to her organization hearing. She was depressed about answering press questions. Her press officer. He did agreed to do business with you!!!
Rest in piss
This presentor has gone full stalker
Did she shave her lega?
Cringey and terrible documentary. Ugh. Nick is creepy. Goodbye Real Stories for this waste of time.
Didn't she routinely rub elbows with powerful "men" who were wildly known to be chronically violent and diabolical ch0 m0s, while enabling said "men's" behavior by making deliberate calls that directly sealed these powerful positions for said "men"? What does it take to get a pass for such a thing?
Tho most Vile bit of human excrement ever to walk the planet ….An absolute maggot
She was one great leader!

the comments have me convinced that most of you just clicked on here to state your adoration for Margaret rather than actually watch the video lol
America loved Margaret Thatcher! President Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher was a formidable team during the Cold War in dealing with the Soviets! I love both of them!
Best thing about her is that she is 💀
I like Margaret.
The confidence with which she pushed social “innovations” similar to Reagan which opened up capitalism to strangle things like Britains transportation and healthcare services is amazing. Especially as a woman in a overwhelmingly male field.
She is a legend and should be loved by all.
Thatcher was one of the best PM of England .
Would have been better if there wasn't 1 or 2 unskippable adds, every 3 mins.
A rather peculiar way of speaking. I wonder what her real voice sounded like.
Satan in the form of a woman
Nah
