Leonard Rossiter, irreplacable as Reggie Perrin

Now filming at Teddington Studios, Clunes is making a return to sitcom, reprising Leonard Rossiter’s classic role.

“Inspired by the original books and TV series of the ’70s [written by David Nobbs],” says the press info, “Perrin updates the world of the classic sitcom character Reginald Perrin, placing it and him in 2009.  Starring Martin Clunes, it’s a modern story of a deskbound sales executive combating personal crises with flights of fancy, pushed by personal and work related stress towards insanity.”
