Comedy With The Brits is a delightful British radio comedy series that aired from 1962 to 1977. One of its notable segments is The Men from the Ministry, which features the antics of lazy and bumbling civil servants. The series stars Wilfrid Hyde-White, Richard Murdoch, and later Deryck Guyler, who bring to life the humorous misadventures of the General Assistance Department.
The show revolves around the incompetent staff, including their teenage secretary, Mildred Murfin, and the pompous Permanent Under-Secretary Sir Gregory Pitkin. Each episode showcases their mix-ups and misunderstandings, leading to comical situations that often result in a telling-off from Sir Gregory.
