| Summary |
Follow the Right Honourable James Hacker as he enters central government in one of the most influential British comedies of all time. James has landed the plum job of Cabinet Minister to the Department of Administration. At last he is in a position of power and can carry out some long-needed reforms - or so he thinks. He is totally unprepared for the deviousness of his Permanent Under-Secretary. Sir Humphrey Appleby has a long and distinguished career of putting politicians in their place, and Jim Hacker is no exception. While battling one another on the civil service reduction issue, the Minister and Sir Humphrey learn of a plan that would adversely affect them both. Their own department is now facing closure. They must work together for the first time if they are to prevent it |
