He has also presented many historical films for the BBC on subjects including the Easter Rising, the rise of the SDP and the 1945 General Election. Lewis was also the co-presenter and producer of his own Radio 4 documentary, “Generation Right”, examining the idea that Millennials are moving to the right politically.
