The sustained dry wit of the dialogue and the wonderful interplay between the three main characters – Jim Hacker, Sir Humphrey and Bernard Wooley – made Jonathan Lynn and Antony Jay’s satirical comedy compulsive viewing. The strength of the writing makes these audios a joy to listen to and in fact these sixteen episodes of Yes Minister were specially adapted and broadcast on BBC Radio 4 between 1983 and 1984. Starring Paul Eddington, Nigel Hawthorne and Derek Fowlds
