    New series of Yes Prime Minister comes to DVD in February

    Inline Image
    Some TV shows get remade, others get resurrected with the original cast, but in a slightly unusual change to the normal Yes Prime Minister recently got resurrected, brought into the current era, and then re-cast on account of the originals sadly no longer being with us.

    If you really enjoyed the recent screening on the gogglebox, or missed it and fancy checking it out at home, then BBC Worldwide are releasing it on DVD this 25th February, priced at £19.99.

    Scripted by the original writing team of Anthony Jay and Jonathan Lynn, the six part satire stars David Haig as the ultimately powerful but beleaguered Prime Minister Jim Hacker, back in office as PM and leading a coalition government confronting the greatest economic crisis in a generation.

    Henry Goodman stars as impenetrably loquacious advisor Sir Humphrey Appleby, Chris Larkin as Principal Private Secretary Bernard Woolley, Zoe Telford as the PM’s personal advisor Claire Sutton and Robbie Coltrane as Deputy PM Rory McAlister.

    Synopsis and clip follow...

    Yes, Prime Minister returns in a contemporary setting and unsurprisingly there is trouble afoot for the fraught PM. European economies are going down the toilet, there’s a ‘too good to be true’ energy deal on the table from an unusual source, a leadership crisis with his coalition partners, the threat of a Scottish independence referendum and the greatest moral dilemma he has ever faced.
