Yes Minister
Yes Minister and its follow-up series Yes, Prime Minister featuring the inimitable Rt. Hon Jim Hacker and Permanent Secretary Sir Humphrey Appleby, defined ‘politics’ for a generation.
These adored British sitcoms set in the echelons of Whitehall satirized the relationship between the elected official and the steadfast civil service. But how true to life was the depiction of this legislative obfuscation? Join the panel including director, writer and the show’s co-creator, Jonathan Lynn; and Lord Butler of Brockwell who served under five Prime Ministers to find out.
