Yes Minister tops political comedy poll

Yes Minister is the greatest political comedy of all time, according to a poll of politicians for the 30 Greatest Political Comedies, which airs on More 4 this evening.

Somewhat bizarrely, Little Britain appears at number six, even though the show's only political content is courtesy of David Walliams’s Prime Ministerial aide Sebastian, but there is no room for the critically acclaimed The Thick Of It.
