大厨秀第三季

很难想象英国人20世纪80年代的剧集即使放到今天也不过时，在看完剧后，你会发现各国的政治体制虽然有所不同，但官僚机构的行事作风却大同小异。

第一集主题是男女平权，我觉得结尾莎拉的话值得回味，她的对话表明女性要的不是男性施舍的平等，她们希望得到的是一个平等竞争和证明自己能力的机会。然而这一点却不能被哈克汉弗莱等人理解，最终导致了她的出走。

第二第三集略过不谈。

第四集是我感慨较深的一集，哈克在危机时刻毫不犹豫地想要出卖忠心耿耿的伯纳，说明哈克本质上也是一个自私自利的人。此外，哈克的临场应变能力也确实让人刮目相看，为其日后成为首相埋好伏笔。

第五、六、七、八集略过。

虽然汉弗莱是道德真空，但他的部分观点不无道理，如公务员的政治中立、政府的首要职责在于维护社会稳定等。

看别的集的时候忍俊不禁，到第六集只觉得悲哀，没有继续看下一集而是来回三遍。

Humphrey在任职30年内服务了十一届政府，态度不断变化，对共同市场先反对后支持，从支持国营到私营，从支持死刑到支持废除死刑，认同凯恩斯主义和弗里德曼主义。不是因为他得出了道理，年纪越大，认为的越是对的，而是因为他通过公务员体系成为了既得利益者。正如素质教育的最大支持者是教师群体，废除死刑的最大得益者是律师。

“道德只有对与错，没有小错与大错。政府追求的并非是道德，而是稳定：社会正常运转、预防混乱、阻止分裂、屹立不倒，政府无关善与恶，只关乎治与乱。”

Hacker对着汉妃信誓旦旦的言论不会反驳，只好气急败坏地无力诅咒一句：“你会下地狱。”Humphrey调侃你什么时候有神学倾向了？

有弹幕认为Humphrey所言极是。实际上他说的并不是对的，而是那些懦弱无能的人借一部政治剧传达出的右派观点来合理化自己失败的藉口。一个社会中“稳定”与“善”并非不能并存。只追求万岁万岁万万岁的稳定，而不讲民众心中的道德，那是专制社会。

Hacker的确平庸而无能，但那个时间段是想过宁愿辞职也要说出真相的，回家后在沙发上借酒消愁，暗示了理想主义的落幕。但最后首相选举，他最后一点良心也没有了。

两年看了七遍的程度。

大二的时候在学校每天下午下了课回宿舍，泡面/面包/零食/水果然后打开播放器。

交换的时候教印度政治的老师上课说她也喜欢Yes, prime minister我差点冲上讲台跟她握手的程度。她说那个内阁秘书长叫啥，Sir啥，我大喊Sir Hamphrey!

后来有翻拍过新版，但老版实在太深入人心了，太经典了🌟

1. The three articles of civil service faith: it takes longer to do things quickly; it's more expensive to do them cheaply; it's more democratic to do them in secret.

2. 阿拉伯之旅答记者问也是模板，以守为攻不然都快被pua到忘了minister这个位置也不是随便什么阿猫阿狗能爬上来的

Do come in.

Sit down, Jenny.

I may call you Jenny, may I not?

- If you like.

- Now, what seems to be the trouble? Two things.Both of them rather worrying to the public.The first is a story that was in the French press.It's about corruption in BES

- getting the Kumrani contract.

- Complete nonsense!

- They quoted reports of payments to officials.Really, this is absolutely typical.A British company slogs its guts out to win orders, create jobs! What does it get from the media? A smear campaign! - If they won by bribery

- There was no bribery.I had a full inquiry.

- All these payments have been identified.

- What as?

- Commission fees, administrative overheads.

- Operative costs, managerial surcharges.Expenses, miscellaneous outgoings.We have looked into every brown envelope every every account book and everything is completely in order.

- I see.

- May I say one thing? Allegations of this nature are symptomatic of a very sick society for which the media shares the blame!

- The media?

- Why are you putting thousands of jobs at risk? I'll call on the Press Council to censure the press for its lack of professionalism in running this story.The Council and the House of Commons must be concerned about the standards which have applied in this disgraceful matter.Pressure will be brought to bear to make sure that this gutter press reporting is not repeated.I see.Ahem.Well, there is this other question.It's about the rosewater jar apparently presented to you in Kumran.

- Yes?

- I saw it in your flat, actually.

- Yes, we're keeping it there, temporarily.

- Temporarily?

- Yes, it's very valuable.

- Mrs Hacker said it was an imitation.Burglars, girl, burglars! And you've gossip! That's until we can get rid of it.

- Get rid of it?

- I'll present it to our local museum this weekend.I can't hold onto it, you know.It's government property.Now what was your question? No er that's all right, actually.Um I No, no, no, that's fine.

- Nothing more?

- No, no, that's all.Well, good of you to drop in.

- Thank you, Minister.

- Goodbye, Jenny.
