Shah of Iran had to flee his country and seeks refuge in Europe. Americans and Soviets see this as opportunity to put their cunning plans into action. Their plots can start the nuclear war.
Comedy series that is parody of world politics (at least we hope that it is parody) during the Cold War. We have here American president completely under influence of religious advisor Deacon, Russian leaders that are either old or very old and British prime minister, who is... insane. All of this done with light approach, very good jokes and a lot of real life idiocy among politics. Yet the series and the movie that followed the TV series are not well known, which is a shame since it is really intelligent comedy.
