I recall a radio interview with actor Paul Eddington (aka Jim Hacker) a few years ago. He said that the show had been a hit in Denmark, which led to an invitation to the cast to visit the country. They had even laid a red carpet from the aircraft on arrival! Inside the terminal, one of their hosts asked "How did you know?" "Know what?" he replied. "That it was like this in Denmark?"
It's been re-made very well in India, as they inherited the same civil service from the British Empire, and have the same issues of entrenched officials carrying on the same way no matter who is elected.
@@dromankass8655 I'd say that is one of the best things about our societies. Look at the craziness that happened in the US over the last four years. Imagine if every excess and daft policy tweet would have made it into practice without a moderating force of bureaucrats in between? And then the swing back this year, when the majority of those policies were revoked. It's fine to course-correct the tanker that is the nation between elections, whether we need to steer left or right for a bit. But doing about-turns because the other party got elected would lead us going in circles! It's a good thing that big change takes time, and we cannot revoke and implement massive, sweeping changes every four years as the political winds happen to change. How would you ever plan your future in such a society?
@@dromankass8655 the civil service NEEDS to be impartial or at best not be heavily behind one party.

In some places you could. But the fact is the battery tech isnt good enough for the world to use green tech. So they will find another excuse. And most of the world isnt sunny or windy enough to produce enough green electricity for cities with modern tech. For example it Isnt sunny enough in germany or uk to use solar for more than a minority % of energy and is far from the equator. In wind world many places on earth arent windy enough on average to power towns and cites. Plus you cant use wind turbines in high elevations because the air denisty is to low and the trubine wont spin. Plus if you cant use green tech within a 100 miles of your city your going to use more green energy to transport the energy from the solar pannel or wind turbine than the green tech produces. So that the green energy is all used up before a drop of energy makes it to the city or town that needs it. Plus even where it make since like solar pannels next to Los angles lots of sun close to the equator. The battery storage tech cant store enough energy for a big city to draw off of during the day much less overnight or a cloudy week. So we desperately need better or new green techs. Unless DOD and NASA finally figrue out space solar because then there is no night clouds. And the microchip the usa highway sytem the internet all started in DOD and DARPA. We still need a battery And it looks like the Lithium batteries just arent ever going to be good enough to power cities and towns. We need a new material. Plus mining for the materials like lithum that make green tech causes pollution anyway in strip mining

Now I know where PM Morrison (Australia) gets his script from!
Albanocchio and Pennocchi are no different
Not really. The OP is reaching hard af 😂
Brilliant post. Simple brilliant. Sad, too, for its truth - but thanks for shining the light...
I made that SOOO long ago, looking back now for Facebook, but gee, it's getting a stack of appreciation here. Did have a BBC copyright strike on it at the start, but I appealed, and after about two months it got restored
Way fuggin aye: is that Vera?
That sure is Brenda Blethyn!!!! I haven't noticed that until your comment!!!
I've always wondered if government is so slick why are politicians so thick??
You need to watch the TV series. Then you'll understand
this is great
Political careers last a few years whereas civil servants run the show....
This 40 year old series is required reading and studying material at political science studies in British universities, I guess... :D)))))
Don't guess. Appoint and succeed.
This very true of Sue Gray report
Boris brought me here!
Abbot is a right piece of work.
'Cranky Environmentalists.......' won't get away with that today.
In some places you could. But the fact is the battery tech isnt good enough for the world to use green tech. So they will find another excuse. And most of the world isnt sunny or windy enough to produce enough green electricity for cities with modern tech. For example it Isnt sunny enough in germany or uk to use solar for more than a minority % of energy and is far from the equator. In wind world many places on earth arent windy enough on average to power towns and cites. Plus you cant use wind turbines in high elevations because the air denisty is to low and the trubine wont spin. Plus if you cant use green tech within a 100 miles of your city your going to use more green energy to transport the energy from the solar pannel or wind turbine than the green tech produces. So that the green energy is all used up before a drop of energy makes it to the city or town that needs it. Plus even where it make since like solar pannels next to Los angles lots of sun close to the equator. The battery storage tech cant store enough energy for a big city to draw off of during the day much less overnight or a cloudy week. So we desperately need better or new green techs. Unless DOD and NASA finally figrue out space solar because then there is no night clouds. And the microchip the usa highway sytem the internet all started in DOD and DARPA. We still need a battery And it looks like the Lithium batteries just arent ever going to be good enough to power cities and towns. We need a new material. Plus mining for the materials like lithum that make green tech causes pollution anyway in strip mining
I'm hearing it on one of my Facebook pages right now, in more aggressive tones
i do sincerely wish those cranky enviromentalists would move to india china as well as parts of africa, and do the rest of us à favour and bother those people, alternatively, being in large part carbon themselves, mayhaps they buŕy themselves under a couple tonnes of dirt, for the enviroment ofcourse.
All ""Environmentslists"" are cranks* (as well as hypocrites & liars), so it's kind of redundant to use the latter 😂 .
Long live Sir Humphrey, the real Prince of the 20th century.
Actually they used this to discredit the people who objected to your eco religion.
Who are the puppeteers 🤔
Where is the Russia report Boris?
It's awaiting the Security Committee to release it.
He hasn't formed one yet. The longest time post election without one being formed.
I wonder why.
Up to AND including.......
Politics..............using the same tricks for millenia.
Finance,law,governing...........always the same tricks............just with newer tools to play with.
I understand but there has to an under statement as well!
Brilliant. I wish there should be a UK version
Nice intercutting with Taney Ebbitt
Bit like go to work but don’t go to work but go to work who said that hmmm
We really didn’t need the real world pop ups in the video. What a way to ruin the experience.
I know Sir Humphrey. Who is this american Humphrey?
American? I surely hope you don't think the australian pm is american
Same standardized english speaking people, doesn't make q difference.
....
@@noruas So if someone calls Pakistanis, Bangladesh people and Sikhs, Indians because they can speak the same language, it is correct "because it does not make a difference"?
@@RenyxGhoul how ignorant is that. We don't speak the same language. Americans and aussies understand each other perfectly well but urdu and tamil would be as different as polish and hungarian.
Brilliant.
Uncanny!
Luckily for Australia, the Abbott was removed as PM one day short of qualifying for the Higher PMs Pension entitlements.
He certainly didn't deserve it anyway.
He's now on the British budget
^ #Delusion100 😂
This is quite painful really
As they say… if we need studies to prove something… those studies will be made 😄.
In 1960, there were studies that cigarettes are good for your health 😏
Self-sabotage by the first world nations is staggering really..
It's a good thing only one side does this kind of thing.
??????
It was irony from the commenter
Or was it 😏
False equivalence is false.
*Ding*
"At the moment"? How short-sighted.
Looks Like Narendra Modi watches it
Yes minister was a DOCUMENTARY (not a comedy)
Really it sounds more like a how to guide
This...
