Yes Minister & Yes Prime Minister - The Complete Audio Collection

27 ratings

Summary

For the first time in one audio collection, all 16 Yes Minister radio episodes plus six further TV episodes, 14 Yes Prime Minister episodes and two bonus sketches. Between 1980 and 1988 on BBC television and radio, the exploits of the Rt Hon Jim Hacker MP (Paul Eddington) - later Prime Minister - kept the British nation enthralled. Helped - and hampered - by his diligent Permanent Secretary Sir Humphrey Appleby (Nigel Hawthorne) and his Principle Private Secretary Bernard Woolley (Derek Fowlds), Hacker and his department became synonymous with government bureaucracy and administrative double dealing. Presented here, for the first time in one collection, are the complete radio series of Yes Minister and the complete BBC television soundtracks of Yes Prime Minister. Also included are six TV soundtracks of Yes Minister and two special bonus mini-episodes: "The PM’s Plan", recorded in 1984 with Margaret Thatcher as herself, and a special segment created for "The Funny Side of Christmas" in 1982.

Samaritans

Summary

Samaritans Medical Center, Washington, DC, can't seem to look after itself and its increasingly desperate doctors, let alone its patients. The chairman of the board, billionaire arms dealer and part-time philanthropist David Soper, decides that it's time to kill or cure. Business school alumnus and Las Vegas hotel genius Max Green is the perfect man for the job. A man of vision. A man with a mission. A man who knows that wealth care is smarter than health care. He's going to make Samaritans great again. Andrew Sharp, star cardio-thoracic surgeon, turns his back on the NHS and buys in to this brave new world of Porsches and payola. But when his American dream turns into a living nightmare, Andrew discovers that even the newfound love of his assistant, Cathy, may not be enough to save him.... Samaritans is the new novel from the cocreator and writer of Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister.

Summary

Záverecný díl dnes již klasického britského komediálního seriálu vás nenechá na pochybách, že britký britský humor je neznicitelný a jeho dokonalé pointy vám zacloumají bránicí kdykoli a kdekoli. Antony Jay a Jonathan Lynn napsali po triceti letech od vysílání prvních dílu slavného Jiste, pane ministre divadelní komedii, která ve Velké Británii láme divácké rekordy a aspiruje na nejúspešnejší hru desetiletí. V satire ostré jako žiletka, plné vtipných situací, rízných slovních smecu a prívalu nových hlášek jde opet jen o jedno: o politiku. Please note: This audiobook is in Czech.
