Yes Minister (1980)
Funniest thing I've ever watched.

This one sneaks up on you. As I have little knowledge of, or interest in British politics, I didn't really expect to like this when it first appeared on my local PBS, but I soon found myself rolling in the aisles. Paul Eddington(the Minister)is one the funniest actors you'll ever watch. His expressions are priceless as he struggles to process the verbal splendor of his Permanent Secretary, the staggering Nigel Hawthorne. Those familiar with Sir Nigel in the heart-tugging Madness of King George may be surprised to find that he can move you to laughter as well as tears, and frankly, Hawthorne has never been so ravishing as he is here.
