The Thick of It
Created by Armando Iannucci
A caustic, frenetic political satire that finds comedy in the chaos and moral compromise of Westminster, delivered through rapid-fire dialogue and workplace dysfunction.
Set in the corridors of power and spin, the Minister for Social Affairs is continually harassed by Number 10's policy enforcer and dependent on his not-so-reliable team of civil servants.
