YES, PRIME MINISTER Recoups Cost of Run Within Five Weeks

The West End production of Yes, Prime Minister has recouped the entire cost of its run, less than five weeks after its first performance. The box office has already taken over £2.5 million, and has welcomed distinguished guests from the world of politics and beyond, including the Chancellor George Osborne, the Home Secretary Theresa May, former Home Secretary David Blunkett, King Constantine II of Greece and Gloria Hunniford.

As experts continue to predict financial doom and gloom in this period of economic downturn, Yes, Prime Minister has shown that the public know a good comedy when they see one. In an unprecedented public-spirited gesture, the show's producers have offered the coalition government the opportunity to invest in the upcoming national tour. "We're all in this together," said producer Matthew Byam Shaw.

In recognition of the exceptional (and shockingly under-paid) job done by this country's Members of Parliament, and the recent cruel reduction in their expense accounts, all MPs will be admitted free of charge to Yes, Prime Minister, on production of valid ID. Unfortunately, producer Mark Goucher has confirmed that due to a recent spate of thefts, no more than two MPs will be admitted at any one time.

Yes, Prime Minister will begin a UK tour in the New Year.

Amid rumours of an American transfer, an insider said this was unlikely while the speeches of Sarah Palin continued to corner the market in clever political satire.
