Yes, Minister on PBS

1998, TV Show

The enormously popular British travails of an idealistic official who tries to run his cabinet while civil servants try to run him. Jim Hacker's constant foil as cabinet minister is the scheming Sir Humphrey Appleby, who gets in his way as Hacker tries to prune the civil service, and deal with government wiretapping and a hospital that has a full administrative staff---and no patients. Hacker eventually moved up the ladder, to prime minister, in the follow-up, `Yes, Prime Minister.'
The Right Honourable James Hacker MP, the newly-appointed Cabinet Minister for Administrative Affairs, soon finds many of his ideas for reform openly opposed by the civil servants whose job it is to implement them, in particular his Permanent Secretary, Sir Humphrey Appleby.

The Minister is having a particularly good day and even enjoys media coverage from the BBC on a trip to a children's city farm. However, one must never underestimate the manipulative skill of Sir Humphrey.
