"I didn't get where I am today by having green frogs thrust down my crotch." In 1976, Reginald Perrin battled stress, boredom and mid-life crisis, eventually faking his own suicide to escape the rat race. Dark, bitingly funny, yet poignant, The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin was beloved by millions who identified with their hero's desperate desire for a life less ordinary. The memorable cast of characters included Reggie's long-suffering wife Elizabeth, his incoherent boss C.J., his mother-in-law, and Reggie himself, brilliantly played by Leonard Rossiter.
