Yes, Prime Minister
Created by Antony Jay, Jonathan Lynn
On BBC Two
A witty, idea-driven political satire built on the interplay between three characters navigating bureaucratic absurdity with intelligence and affection.
James Hacker MP the Government's bumbling minister for Administrative Affairs is propelled along the corridors of power to the very pinnacle of politics - No. 10. Could this have possibly have been managed by his trusted Permanent Private Secretary, the formidably political Sir Humphrey Appleby who must move to the “Top Job” in Downing Street to support him, together with his much put upon PPS Bernard Wolley. What could possibly go wrong?
