Page "Yes Minister" Paragraph 70

The show has been remade several times, albeit sometimes unofficially.

The title of the Portuguese remake, Sim, Sr. Ministro ( from 1996 ), is a direct translation of the original's title.

Ji, Mantriji ( 2001 ) was the remake in Hindi ( with the BBC's permission ) by STAR Plus, Rupert Murdoch's Indian satellite TV channel.

Both Sir Humphrey and Jim Hacker are portrayed there by the same actors who dubbed them for the original.

A computer game version of Yes, Prime Minister was released in 1987 for the Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC and ZX Spectrum.

The premise was to survive one week in office as Jim Hacker.

In 2009, Israeli sitcom Polishook, explicitly modelled on Yes Minister, aired for a two seasons on Channel 2's Keshet Broadcasting.

Also in 2009, it was announced that a Dutch remake would be made by S & V Fiction for VPRO, lasting 11 episodes.

In the planned Dutch version, Sir Humphrey will be a woman and Bernard will be a Moroccan called Mohammed.
