    Yes, Minister and Yes, Prime Minister is as relevant today as it was when it was first broadcast in the 1980s.

      I agree that it's funny, but who thinks that the main problem with British politics is the civil servants manipulating ministers?

      @laxeystu8096 I certainly agree. In today's world, it is not only high-ranking civil servants, but the NGO's funded by investment firms, the Intelligence Agencies, and major arms manufacturers

      @l.w.8470 In The Thick of It they think it is the ministerial spin doctors and the PMs enforcer

    The Civil Service must at times look at Politicians as egotistical primadonas.

    Sir Humphrey is a better politician than the politician himself.

    I come from a small farm background. I couldn't take a holiday because my dad only had one arm and he couldn't afford to get anyone to cover me.

    Something I've noticed about the first clip is that cinematographically, PM Hacker is rather being done up by the BBC. The camera is sitting lower than eye level, forcing him into a "insurance salesman" stance, almost leering over the camera. The lighting also seems to be placed very high and angled very sharply downwards, lighting only the very bottom of his face if he leans only slightly forwards. And the lens is far too wide to be appropriate for a Prime Minister's address. The news, even at this time, would use longer lenses to give the impression that there's a bit of distance between them and the viewer. Such a wide angle just serves to make it look like Hacker's been shoved into your TV and is trapped in there.
    Or a TLDR if you prefer a shorter explanation, it looks like Hacker's been taken hostage and is recording a ransom message in the less than ideal lighting of a basement.

      ​@@playfordtreeI learned all this through a hobby, photography.
      If you don't like pointlessly informative walls of text on UA-cam, fair enough. But instead of leaving an equally pointless comment, how about finding a hobby? Other than leaving such comments of course?
