Created by David Nobbs' and based on his novel, the BBC comedy series The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin stars Leonard Rossiter in the title role. Outwardly a successful executive, Reginald Perrin suffers from boredom on the job and a humdrum home life. He yearns to break free from his existence, a yearning that turns into reality after he suffers a nervous breakdown. Unfortunately, his "new" life proves to be just as wearisome as his old one. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
