本剧叙述在野党影子内阁成员Jim Hacker在帮助本党大选获胜之后得到行政事务部(DAA)部长的职务,从此开始面对以部秘书Sir Humphrey Appleby为首的公务员体系,而他的公派私人秘书、同属公务员的Bernard则夹在了当中。在Hacker所代表的政客以及Appleby所代表的公务员之间因施政而发生的种种冲突之中,两人的关系不停地发生变化,既有互相捂盖子,也有互相揭老底。与此同时,英国政治体制(包括政党体制和公务员体制)中的种种不为外人所知弊端和黑幕也展现在观众眼前。当然所有这些都是通过大量喜剧情节和台词展开。在本系列后半部分的《Yes Prime Minister》中,Hacker通过党内角力当上了首相,而Appleby也已先他一步当上了首相秘书,两人的故事移到唐宁街10号继续展开。
