Yes, Prime Minister · Season 2, Episode 6

Bernard, Hacker and others in “The Patron of the Arts”

Bernard

If there was a major crisis, you wouldn't need to go at all.

Hacker

Is there a major crisis coming up?

BBill

Not really, Prime Minister.

Hacker

Is there a distant crisis, that we could bring forward?

Bernard

I know, what about the death of a cabinet colleague?

Hacker

Ooh, is one imminent?

BBill

Well we can hardly hope for that to fall on the right day. Well, not by accident.
