In politics, you have to really get behind somebody before you can stab them in the back! This brilliantly observed comedy of manners pits the well-meaning Jim Hacker, a newly appointed Cabinet Minister, against the machinations of a career civil servant, Sir Humphrey Appleby, in the ultimate political marriage of inconvenience.

Yes, Minister (1980)
A sociological probe into the core of politics so deep that it reliably stings even after thirty years; the wishful thinking of all the analysts, commentators, and ordinary voters is that this would not be the case when the ballot boxes are counted.
