"Petrol Hits $2" poster behind Mel (2:43), it's still around $2-00 years since that series was filmed...and to think we sleep soundly in our beds at night with those buffoons running the country! They would have their work cut out for them today with Albanese as PM!
Yeah let’s go back to the most corrupt party this country ever had with a PM who secretly gave himself 5 cabinet positions as to have less people oversee his corruption?
"Screw the details, smell the paper" I am dying right now too good

Loved this series. APS colleagues were horrified the show seemed to know what was happening in side departments. Writers were well briefed.
If you know ANYTHING about the Australian Antarctic Program, that episode is 110% accurate.
If China decided to claim Antarctica we would immediately hand it over.
Hard hitting documentary television
*impressed whistle*
We need a compilation of Geoff
Absolutely brilliant.
I loved the Hollowmen (and still do on rewatches).
A definite successor to yes prime minister
More like Thick of It.
"I don't do fruit"
The Ian scene pretty accurately describes the current federal government’s Housing Australia Future Fund.
