Conquer Club

Anyone watch this?

It's an old british sitcom that I was just reminded of for some reason.

It's quite amusing and a decent light-hearted intro into how government/politicians operate.

Eg. The hospital:





Edit: Oh, btw, the minister is only doing this because he needs a "win" to offset some recent public embarassment and thinks a photo op with the new hospital will be good. Also he's scared of it being discovered that there's no patients.
No, he's not doing it out of "civic concern"

I love this show.

Yeh, the show is very good. Even Margaret Thatcher liked it and appeared in a special, which is pretty ironic considering the writers/actors political views. Also hard to believe a lot of it was based on real life and real events.

You should try The Thick of It, another British political comedy parodying the last governments spin doctor culture but be aware the language in it is very strong (and very funny - some of the best insults you'll ever hear).

Thanks, I'll check it out.

Both are brilliant shows..... the sooner Scotland is rid of Westminster the better
