Jonathan Lynn and Antony Jay reunited after 24 years to write a bang up-to-date Yes Prime Minister for the stage.
Spin, BlackBerrys, sexed-up dossiers, sleaze, global warming and Europe on the brink of a financial meltdown form the background to mayhem at Chequers as the Foreign Minister of Kumranistan makes a seriously compromising offer of salvation. Prime Minister Jim Hacker, narrowly re-elected, remains in power with his coterie of close advisors including cabinet Secretary Sir Humphrey Appleby and Principal Private Secretary Bernard Woolley.. but for how long? They govern a whole new world.
