Back when bbc made quality instead of left wing indoctrination
ОтветитьWonderful hearing Humphrey tell Bernard that HE never comes to the point!
ОтветитьMerry xmas
ОтветитьYes Minister and Yes Prime Minister was an education in politics
ОтветитьSir Humphrey is so patient with Bernard
ОтветитьThe sad thing is that this is still relevant today. In Sir Humphrey’s words “Historical facts are todays policy”
Ответить"If the right people don't get the power, the wrong people will get it"
That sounds right.. And yet somehow i am sure that i will get beaten if i used it as campaign slogan
"The official secrets act is not to protect secrets, it is to protect officials."
ОтветитьOne of the best written, best acted, best researched comedy's of all time.
ОтветитьSir Humpy is beyong amazing chatacter 😂his domina is Everything!!
ОтветитьI was 8 years old when I watched this show and I had such a crush on Sir Humphrey?? Is this wrong?? I don't know!! LOL!!
ОтветитьAbsolutely 💯 timeless.
Ответитьthe universities,both of them...rofl
ОтветитьFrighteningly accurate! More now than then!
ОтветитьThis is british democracy Bernard!
ОтветитьHiding behind the brilliant comedy are the beautiful and concisely expressed designs and purposes of the administrative state. Beware.
ОтветитьStill a masterpiece.
ОтветитьWas this series a documentary or a comedy?
ОтветитьAfter all this time I still love Humpy.🎉🎉❤
ОтветитьBrilliant absolutely Brilliant
ОтветитьThis must have been before WOKE had made it to a womb.
ОтветитьNot to be surprised but Dame (and former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom) Margaret Tatcher was a big fan and loyal watcher of both series and: 1)By 1984 she made sure write a sketch which you can see here/Yt named"Yes Real Prime Minister AKA The Thatcher Sketch"(performed on the National Viewers and Listeners Awards in 1984)with herself. Paul Eddington, Nigel Hawthorne involved in it. and 2) When the producers asked persmission to tape a segment outside the real Downing Street 10 facade (part of Season 1 of Yes Prime Minister, Eppisode 4"The Key"(1986)), she allowed it to happen.
ОтветитьI’m crying - subtitles for sir Humphrey is ‘hungry’ and ‘Batman’ for Bernard 😂😂😂
ОтветитьBernard: (anxious, worried) "But you only need to know things on a need to know basis!" Humphrey: (emphatic, jowls quivering, gritted teeth): "I need to know EVERYTHING! How else would I judge whether or not I need to know it?" Unparalleled brilliance in both writing and delivery - satire at its best!
Ответитьlearned ALOT watching this. Managers use similar tactics as shown in this moccumentry, double talk and implied favours for promotions.
ОтветитьQuality
ОтветитьThis is Gold! 24 karat Gold!
ОтветитьI think the main lesson we can learn from Sir Humphrey and Jim Hacker is that just because you are the leader, that doesnt mean you are in control. It is the person with their hand on the wheel who steers the ship, and while they ostensibly dont have a say in where the ship goes, with enough engineering they can make it so that they inevitably steer in the direction that they are most comfortable with, even against the captain's wishes.
ОтветитьBernard is quite brilliant and underrated.
ОтветитьA timeless masterclass acting and how bureaucracies all over the world operate. Superb quality in every aspect!
Ответить❤ Could we have some new episodes...have watched these hundreds of times,still laugh my heart out.😂🎉
ОтветитьI dont think BBC will ever be able to make show like this ever
ОтветитьThe production is by highly cultured proud British. 😂
ОтветитьSpot on for senior civil servants. Corrupt, self-serving and vile.
ОтветитьThis show is perfection.
ОтветитьThe more things change the more they remain the same!
ОтветитьWe run a civilized aristocratic government machine occasionally tempered by elections. This definition of British democracy has aged better than one would've expected in the light of how democracy has been taken advantage of by ideologues and opportunists in the age of Brexit and migration scares
ОтветитьBrilliant!!!!!
Ответить"No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main; if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend’s or of thine own were; any man’s death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee."
ОтветитьThe need to know speech is brilliant, because it makes such sense. The person who wrote that has to have an IQ of 200.
Ответитьclassic tv id love to see the out takes on this i bet they had fun and laughs
ОтветитьThe best ever documentary about British politics.
ОтветитьWow
ОтветитьBbc makes great documentaries.
ОтветитьNothing's changed! Still the same UK, still the same politicians with different names. Even Jim Hacker, however, is more intelligent than the current lot.
