	2005-2012. BBC. The most popular and critically acclaimed political sitcom of the early twenty-first century. It presents the rather minor Department for Social Affairs and Citizenship (DoSAC) run by a succession of mediocre ministers – [[Hugh Abbott]] ([[Chris Langham]]), [[Nicola Murray]] ([[Rebecca Front]]), [[Peter Mannion]] ([[Roger Allam]]) and [[Fergus Williams]] ([[Geoffrey Streatfeild]]). While ministers come and go, the protagonist remains the same: head of communications [[Malcolm Tucker]] ([[Peter Capaldi]]), who has turned swearing into a fine art and bullying into a spectator sport. The mixture of satire, colourful expletives and well-made sitcom has taken audience and critics alike. ''The Thick of It'' was awarded the BAFTA for Best Situation Comedy in 2006 and 2010. Chris Langham got a BAFTA for best comedy performance in 2006; so did Peter Capaldi and [[Rebecca Front]] in 2010. In 2012, the latter two actors received British Comedy Awards.		2005-2012. BBC.
