8/10
Arms race
27 December 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Usually Yes Minister deals with some very serious information that is relevant to this day, and here the use of arms and other military weapons falling in the wrong hands is on display in this episode, The Whisky Priest, which sees us coming close to the end of season three and the ascension of Jim Hacker to the prime ministership at the top of the greasy pole.

Jonathan Lynn co-created and co-wrote Yes, Minister with Antony Jay. Interestingly, Antony Jay received a knighthood to become Sir Antony Jay but to this day Jonathan Lynn hasn't. Yet Jonathan Lynn went on to direct Clue, Nuns on the Run, My Cousin Vinny, and The Whole Nine Yards so it's strange init that Jonathan has been overlooked for a knighthood.
