This episode has the memorable monologue from Prime Minister Hacker about the newspapers and who they pander to and it's quite hilarious and insightful that's for sure. That's Yes Prime Minister for you.
Sydney Lotterby, who also directed all the As Time Goes By episodes, directed all of the Yes Prime Minister episodes and all but one of season one of Yes Minister.
Jonathan Lynn co-created and co-wrote Yes, Minister with Antony Jay. Interestingly, Antony Jay received a knighthood to become Sir Antony Jay but to this day Jonathan Lynn hasn't. Yet Jonathan Lynn went on to direct Clue, Nuns on the Run, My Cousin Vinny, and The Whole Nine Yards so it's strange init that Jonathan has been overlooked for a knighthood.
