Yes, Minister, Series One (1986)

[The PM is considering taking the joint headship of the civil service away from Humphrey and making Frank the full head]

Sir Humphrey:
Oh, Frank.

Sir Frank Gordon:
Yes?

Sir Humphrey:
Good meeting with the PM?

Sir Frank:
Yes, very good.

Sir Humphrey:
Good. Any particular subject come up?

Sir Frank:
Any particular subject you're interested in?

Sir Humphrey:
No, not particularly. He didn't raise the issue of service appointments and so on?

Sir Frank:
It may have cropped up.

Sir Humphrey:
Did he foreshadow any redistribution of responsibility?

Sir Frank:
Shall we say it was a wide-ranging discussion.

Sir Humphrey:
Did it move towards any conclusion?

Sir Frank:
There were arguments on both sides.

Sir Humphrey:
Evenly balanced?

Sir Frank:
Perhaps tending slightly more one way than the other.

Sir Humphrey:
But nothing to worry about?

Sir Frank:
Nothing for me to worry about. See you this afternoon.
