Was watching/listening to a playlist of Yes Minister, this pops up. Just discovered this, now I'm sad as I'm reminded of its old age.

But it was relevant and timely until her majesty's passing.

Yes Minister was brilliant and Nigel one of the best actors ever. It is interesting to note bush fires being quite common even in the past in South Eastern Australia, while it is being dressed as something new now.

Bush fires have been a natural part of Australia's environment for centuries, it's not that fires are new, it's that the patterns and extents are new kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmHbZWljmtOrqaM

It was amazing to hear that Newcastle were top of the Premiership, haha.

2001 the Australian NRL team Newcastle Knights won the premiership

Blast from the past 😅

Yes, Minister is a definite contender for best sitcom of all time. And Hawthorne was brilliant in it, and even better in Madness of King Goerge, IMO. Incidentally, as an Australian, it was interesting to see that bit about the bushfires. I remember it well, but unfortunately we've had plenty of worse bushfires since then.

Of all the cast members, how did sir Arnold, who was supposed to be their senior on the show, survive up until a few years ago
