《是,首相》 / Yes, Prime Minister
《是,首相》 / Yes, Prime Minister is the sequel to [[YesMinister|《是,大臣》 / Yes Minister]] discussed in 118.是,大臣:辛辣讽刺永不过时. The episode names it as part of the same satire system, extending the conflict from a departmental minister’s office into the prime-ministerial level.
In the source, the sequel matters less as a separate plot summary than as evidence that the same administrative logic survives promotion. [[JamesHacker|Hacker]] can move upward, but [[HumphreyAppleby|Humphrey]], [[ArnoldRobinson|Arnold]], and the permanent official layer still define what information reaches elected power and how risky action is contained.
