Description

Secretary to the Cabinet Sir Arnold Robinson is retiring, and Sir Humphrey is to take his place. Hacker celebrates by getting gloriously drunk and is lucky to escape the breathalyser — unlike the Deputy Prime Minister. With his successor out of the way, the Prime Minister too steps down and the hunt is on to find his replacement. The politicians favour a strong candidate, someone with style and charisma who will lead the party into a new term of office. The Civil Service favour someone less headstrong, more 'receptive to advice' . . .

    These series (Yes, Minister and Yes, Prime Minister) are wonderful. Although 20+ years old; the tricks, techniques and perspectives are still around and you might find yourself watching a comic take on something happening in the news today. I particularly enjoy the maneuvering between and among civil servants and politicians that are allies...on paper. Almost everyone involved is convinced they know best and act accordingly. Usually disaster doesn't strike but the country and its government muddles on, not optimally but good enough. The icing: Nothing is quite so dangerous for Mr Hacker than when he hears a "Yes" (hence the title). There's a lesson (a funny one) in there somewhere.
