first of all i don't know if this is the appropriate forum for this kind of thread, but here goes nothing.
i saw this clip the other day and its actually an old comedy series from the 80's, although its comical but what struck me was this clip when one of the minister's advisors was telling him how politics work and how it should be done based on hundreds of years of experience, its quite funny however does in my opinion ring a bell
the clip is short only 1.45 and pretty interesting

I was too young to get it when Yes Minister was on the box , I have since learned it was a fairly accurate depiction of life in the corridors of power.

Oh my God. Now, I'm just a bloody Yank from Texas, but I've always loved the Yes, Minister series. Good stuff. Is there a modern series that compares to this one?

That was pretty funny although i doubt that its a accurate representation of British EU policy in 2016

It is amazing how 36 years ago everyone was laughing at Yes, Minister and you can still laugh at it now!
