"This is the greatest disaster this century, Bernard"
"There were two world wars"
Underrated line
British humour at its best
Putin: hold my beer
@@lawjef aged like cheese in the sun
If Putin does top the first two world wars, at least we'll have the smug satisfaction of knowing that no one we'll be around to confirm it to him.
"Is she pleased with the publicity I got... hum, for her ?" that short pause itself has more comedy in it than many comedians can muster in a whole show :-D
Yeah thanks for noting that great timing by Paul.
Gebius
Unfortunately, that is impossible. Or very difficult. Or highly inadvisable. Or would require legislation. One of those.
a prepared set of excuses for any situation
JUDAS 🤣🤣🤣🤣Tomorrow morning your name will be manure 🤣🤣🤣
Absolutely brilliant stuff
After she said he would be "roasted in the press", I was sure Bernard would chime in with a comment about how one doesn't generally roast manure...
What a great clip. She was superb
An underrated joke in this to me is Desmond referring to the Minister's trip to the farm as a "jolly good wheeze." Shows that nobody took it particularly seriously
He read it in the financial times too
I'm surprised no one has mentioned the warden; the only human being ever to make Sir Humphrey recoil with a look.
Only human being after Arnold.
@@karangill6787 does Arnold count as a mere mortal?
@@CarrionCrow993 God calls him God after all.
There's also Agnes, who came in the office and insinuated that she'll take Humphrey's office.
3:53 Brilliantly delivered. Hacker may be talking about the bank, but his look threatens to throttle Bernard.
"Well, I was reading this morning in the--" pauses and looks at Humphrey "--in the Financial Times about your visit" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The funniest thing is that this is certainly not something the financial times would report, especially back then. That's a reference to a scene where he says he never reads the financial times 😂
@@thomasb.5643 I think it is somewhere in this episode that Sir Desmond tells Sir Humphrey that he never reads the FT, just carries it under his arm as part of the 'uniform'. That's the reason for the look to Sir Humphrey who almost certainly cooked up this situation in order to get Sir Desmond the extra floors on his building depite Hacker having stated that high rise skyscrapers were no longer to be allowed, or some such.
1:41 The reaction of Sir Humphrey was hilarious
one look and humphrey shuts right up..HAHAHAHA
And just... quietly shuffles away pretending he doesn't exist lol
This has to be one of the funniest clips from YM. I love the way Sir Desmond looks back at Sir Humphrey again after suggesting the cuddly animal sanctuary name 😆
The only criticism of brilliant Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister I can think of, apart from not having more episodes/seasons of course, is that the makers didn’t give much airtime to this breathtakingly idiot Sir Desmond Glazebrook.
Watching him completely shut down Humphrey's brain with "I'm sure there's a Milton Keynes...?" is indeed breathtaking. Not even Humphrey can figure out how to deal with him.
Personally I'm not a fan of the laugh track.
@@Lorgar64 It's not a laugh track it's a live audience
@@invictus7736 Wow. Just looked that up. Amazing how they can make normal people sound like low quality recordings.
@@Lorgar64 It's almost as if this show wasn't made today
It's good to see great comedy about a governmental department that's better run than some major countries nowadays...
Or as Sir Humphrey would put it "almost all government policies are wrong, but frightfully well executed".
The fact that hacker did not get awards as much as humfrey was a real shame.
Paul Eddington always lost out to Nigel Hawthorne, as Nigel's character had the edge and best lines.
Bernard was quite good too, I loved his explanation on greek tags.
Ministers come and go but civil servants are for long run. They need to be kept happy. I bet out of 4 bafta atleast one was given out of some inner agenda
@@johnking5174 Hardly. Paul Eddington is by far the better actor in Yes Minister and Yes PM. Sir Nigel Hawthorne is a brilliant actor yes, but he is better in his other roles. The BAFTA award is just not a good judge, nor are any of the half a million other such awards
@@perperson199 I think it really had more to do with the part itself. Sir Humphrey got the best lines and moments of the show, and Hawthorne was ideal in the role. Eddington, who probably was a more subtle actor had the harder job but it was also far less flashy and organizations are drawn to flashy performances. Even Hawthorne said that Eddington should have won at least half the awards and I think most fans of the show would agree with that.
The James Hacker Cuddly Animal Sanctuary has a better ring to it, doesn't it?
I love how the women in this series are generally so strong and intimidating.
The world really does need the Jim Hacker Cuddly Animal sanctuary, along with stunning view of the rice pudding bank.
Reading in FT about cuddly farm :D.....Desmond and Humphrey have cooked up the story in a hurry.
... cause he said earlier never read it, can't understand it, it's just part of my uniform.
@@yodude832 One of my favorite lines in the show :-D
Classic, classic stuff. Brilliantly written, timeless comedy.
i love how humphrey has a prepared set of excuses for every situation
Timing is everything.
If they had written more episodes Glazebrook would have been a great regular character. Great actor, he was in Goldfinger as the banker as well
And he never seemed to age. He looks the same in both. Old.
@@xr6lad yep just slightly matured like a fine whiskey
Can I vote in Humphrey? Honestly he might be corrupt but he's extremely effective and reliable XD
No, he's a civil servant, not a politician
You can't though.
He's just a humble vessel into which ministers pour the fruits of their deliberations :)
humphrey isn't corrupt he always works within the rules that he writes
What kind of achievements you'd expect from Humphrey?
He is meant to be the villain of the piece, but somehow it's hard not to admire his considerable skills, ^oo^
The way Mrs Philips just turns around and gives Humphrey the glare of death that silences him........priceless!
Dear Lord Jim, this one is easy: “I had nothing to do with this, I’ve only just heard about it and I’m completely shocked! It must be some kind of clerical error but whatever it is, I WILL fix this!
I don't remember having seen this particular incident before, but it's perfectly brilliant of course ;)
I'm surprised to see this was only just uploaded
This is so good it`s scary!
This is GREAT
I LOVE IT
Wonderful
Wow! She shut old Humphrey right up, didn’t she?
Really weird seeing poor deceased Blaketon looking youngish
Judas!😡
I say, look heahr! 😂
The good old day's 👍❤️
A more sweary version would be,, the thick of it series on iplayer ironically 😂
Both are great shows.
It seems ladies in Britain also boast on the power of their husbands !! 🤣🤣
Yep. I was in the military. When I was gate duty a woman never had the proper Identification so I told her very respectfully that I can’t let her in (I worked on an establishment that housed the UK’s Nuclear Submarines). She then went mental at me telling me that her husband is a lieutenant commander and that I will pay for this. It was pissing down with rain so i told her that she can either stand inside in the warm and wait for me to help her get clearance or she can stand outside in the pissing rain all night 🤣
@@scottwhitley3392 hahah
Genial then, genial now !!!!
No. I mean no. Yes, I mean no. No, yes I mean, uh, well, definitely not. No. Yes. I mean no.
Humphrey is having too much fun here
Didn't realise until this video Sir Desmond was in both series
Ha lol
😂😂😂😂😂
Humphrey's eyes at 1:26 min O.O
Humpy had problems dealing with women😂
There will be politicians watching this thinking its a normal day at the office. Not saying who...just saying.
In fact, a lot of what's covered in the series (like the new hospital that had loads of administrators but no medical staff or patients, or the "emergency communications room" actually happened!)
The good old days: where a western tv show could say Judas and not face a &&*^ storm
3:10 He reads the Financial Times now?
That was a joke referencing another part of the episode. He doesn't understand anything in the FT but as a banker, he buys it as part of his uniform anyway. Priceless!
Yes i mean no
Jim never did well in Episode 6, no matter which season he was in?
S1E6 he did - it was the one where he found out Sir Humphrey had made big mistake 20 years earlier!
The best thing here I see & fail to see no one pointing it out , there are favors done to get a job done , however there is never a word like cut backs , paying a minister money to get a contract , General basic corruption
Ip address check pls
Back when politicians were still held to account...
Nah, they were never truly held to account (in a strict and consistent way at least). It's just more obvious these days.
Back in _ye olden days_ our dear leaders just didn't have as many eyes & ears on them or as many mouths yapping at them.
Perhaps it's the case that because of that increased scrutiny the ones with something resembling shame left and the ones we have left are the most shameless drama queens.
(Not being specific to any one country here.)
It is at this point you should be reminded that this is fiction.
@@CuFhoirthe88 From an era in which politicians were still held to account.
@@lexvstee You must be living in a fantasy to believe that politicians in the eighties were held to any account. They were sleaze-balls and degenerates even then.
You missed the point 😂 go watch again
This is the greatest disaster this century!
Sir Desmond Glazebrook AKA Boris Johnson.
God, what a Battleaxe. 🤢
What does "both St. Francis and St. Joan" mean, exactly? Of course, St. Francis is for his fondness for animals, but the rest? Joan of Arc?
St. Joan was famously burned alive by her English and Burgundian captors, Hacker is to be roasted by the press.
Ah, I wondered who St Francis was.
St. John the Baptist, I suppose, who was executed by the Romans.
St. Francis of Assisi vs St. Joan of Arc
St. Joan of Arc, one of the most inspiring lady in French history led the French army on battle and was s heroine. Later she was burnt at the stake.
This is exactly how governments work 😮
Judas
The farmer's appearance was a rare incursion of bad acting.
