Between 1980 and 1988 on BBC television and radio, the exploits of the Rt Hon Jim Hacker MP (Paul Eddington) - later Prime Minister - kept the British nation enthralled. Helped - and hampered - by his diligent Permanent Secretary Sir Humphrey Appleby (Nigel Hawthorne) and his Principle Private Secretary Bernard Woolley (Derek Fowlds), Hacker and his department became synonymous with government bureaucracy and administrative double dealing.

V druhé části satirického románu z prostředí vysoké politiky sledujeme Hackerovo nikdy nekončící drama směřující až k dobytí premiérského postu. Jim Hacker opět bojuje proti byrokracii a snižování přezaměstnanosti ve státní správě. Mezi ním a realitou ovšem neochvějně stojí dva jeho nejbližší spolupracovníci, kterým leží na srdci především snaha nedovolit panu ministrovi přílišné zásahy do zaběhnutého systému. Tajemství vznešeného umění vrcholné byrokracie konečně odhalena!
