The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin

Description: Sick of his marriage, his family and the daily grind of his job, Reginald Perrin comes up with the only logical solution for such a deep midlife crisis: He fakes his own death. After various attempts at creating a new life, Reginald adopts a disguise and returns to his old life to find that nothing much has changed. He even re-marries his wife, Elizabeth, after wooing her at his funeral, and he gets a job at his former company, where he manages his own memorial fund. Eventually Reginald tires of being someone else and reveals his true self. The much-loved sitcom, based on a novel by David Nobbs, starred Leonard Rossiter in the title role and aired for three series beginning in 1976.
