7. "Yes, Minister" comes to mind...

Re Trident:

Hacker: I sometimes wonder why we need the weapons. Anyway, the Americans will always protect us from the Russians, won’t they?
Humphrey: Russians? Who’s talking about the Russians? It’s to protect us against the French!
Hacker: The French? But that’s astounding! Why, they’re our allies, aren't they?
Humphrey: They are now. But they’ve been our enemies for most of the past 900 years. If they’ve got the bomb, we must have the bomb!
