About Tripper's Day

Tripper's Day is a comedy TV series that premiered on ITV1 on September 24, 1984. It has 1 season and 6 episodes so far and has ended. The latest episode, Season 1 Episode 6 "Vatman and Robbin", aired on October 29, 1984.

Tripper's Day is a British sitcom produced by Thames Television for ITV, starring Leonard Rossiter as a small London supermarket manager whose best intentions are constantly thwarted by the lazy, useless bunch of bums he employs. The programme is largely remembered for the negative reception, and primarily for the fact that it was Rossiter's final television work, the actor dying between the broadcast of the second and third episodes. The series was revived two years later with Bruce Forsyth in the lead role, under the new title Slinger's Day. In Canada and United States, it was remade as Check it Out!, whilst in Sweden, comical duo Stefan & Krister starred in Full Frys, a TV series largely based on both prior iterations.
