Try to figure why it was funny. 参考答案 I will recommend Yes! Prime Minister! It’s a political satire British sitcom written by Antony Jay and Jonathan Lynn. Spilt over three seven-episodes series, it was first transmitted on BBC from 1980 to 1984. Set principally in the private office of a?British Cabinet?minister in the fictional Department of Administrative Affairs in?Whitehall,?Yes! Minister?follows the?ministerial?career of?Jim Hacker, played by?Paul Eddington. His various struggles to formulate and enact policy or effect departmental changes are opposed by the British?Civil Service, in particular his?Permanent Secretary,?Sir Humphrey Appleby, played by?Sir Nigel Hawthorne. His?Principal Private Secretary?Bernard Woolley, played by?Derek Fowlds, is usually caught between the two. The sequel,?Yes, Prime Minister, continued with the same cast and followed Jim Hacker after his unexpected elevation to?Number 10?upon the resignation of the previous Prime Minister.
