Good quiz, but a couple of errors - Alison Steadman's character in Abigail's Party is called Beverly, Abigail is an unseen character. Also, Robert Carlyle's surname is spelt, well, Carlyle (really minor point, but you know). All in all though, good quiz!

thansk @james_murton - i've removed abigail's party and replaced with 'felicity & ferris' (the quiz needed more female roles). and i've corrected robert carlyle's name now...

I think you should have it like the other name swap shows on here IE you just need to put the swapped name. Eg instead of having to write the Rise and Fall of Reginald Perrin you should be able to just put Reginald Perrin

Nice although a little too easy for UK TV show watchers. Reggie Perrin worked for me

Very good quiz! I'm glad you included the original Reggie Perrin (but can't believe it's so low in the stats). @random_cloud: Are you CJ, then?
