The lowdown
Joh Bjelke-Petersen wrote the populist playbook. Last King of Queensland details Queensland’s longest serving premier’s reign: the bad, the ugly, and everything inbetween. From his nascent rise to farcical fall, Sir Joh offers a look at modern politics through a new lens. Last King of Queensland follows Joh’s career, as commentated by a narrator with perspective from Bjelke-Petersen, as a journalist peppers him with increasingly uncomfortable questions about his public dealings and corruption allegations.
