The 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. This work, in an audio format, includes sixteen episodes that were specially adapted and broadcast on BBC Radio 4 between 1983 and 1984.

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.
