This could have been written today not 30 years ago.... Just brilliant.

I learned more about politics from this show than any documentary could ever teach.

Still very funny,(1981!) still feels topical. Shows politicians always the same

Thank you KERA for sunday night british comedies!

The skeleton in the Cupboard. Mr. Humphrey's past is catching up with him.

Haven't seen this in years. So glad it's back on.

Watching Yes, Minister - Doing The Honours

Getting my friend into it! Yes, I'll watch it again and again...

Equal Opportunities. 27 out of 578 under secretaries are female.

Starting to watch my box set, series 1 ep 1, "Open Government"...Classic Brit TV!!

They're running The Death List again. Michael Keating sighting!!

Doing the Honors. It's Rocky from As Time Goes By.

#NowWatching Yes, Minister S03 E05 - The Bed of Nails

Series 4, Episode 1 - "Party Games" Hard to place where this episode should go besides after Series 3 of "Yes Minister" and Series 1 of "Yes Prime Minister" The Christmas episode. :)

S01E06. The Right To Know. Humphrey at his most obtuse.

He'll always be Margot's Jerry to me!

Series 3, Episode 5 - "The Bed of Nails" Bernard's famous speech is in here. Apparently I have done something similar, but on a different subject. Subsequently, my friend also ignored me. :p

Series 1, Episode 1 - "Open Government", Series 1, Episode 2 - "The Official Visit" Something to listen to in the background while working. I don't like to embarrass myself (okay, maybe I do), but I love Bernard's voice. :)

Series 3, Episode 6 - "The Whisky Priest", Series 3, Episode 7 - "The Middle-Class Rip-Off" What I've noticed, and I'm not very observant, is that Bernard really talks with his eyes (see what I mean?). Despite of him being so quiet, there are a lot of times he's not, and that goes for his eyes and his mouth! ;) :D

Series 3, Episode 5 - "The Bed of Nails" This is pretty much another one of my favourites... Series 3 was a very good series, especially for Bernard (kind of... okay, not really, not since "The Moral Dimension" episode, but I digress). The best Bernard speech is in this. Sadly, I learned a bit from Bernard about differences between Greek and Latin language and how they are similar, too. I do find it interesting as well. To find roots between languages and formation and growth is interesting. I'll stop rambling now? :)
