It Takes a Worried Man was a British TV sitcom. It was made by Thames Television and ran for three series, broadcast from October 1981 to November 1983. The first two series were broadcast on the ITV network, and the third and final series on Channel 4. Most episodes were written by the star, Peter Tilbury, who played office worker Philip Roath.
At 35, Philip Roath worries over his wife having left him, his hair and teeth diminishing, and his insecurity and laziness, but a visit to an analyst is far from helpful.
Roath has a blind date; perhaps she will help restore his waning confidence. On the other hand, will she spot all his flaws of middle age?
For once in his life, Roath pulls himself together, changes his attitude, starts getting fit, even plans to do some work. But he didn't allow for the vagaries of fate.
Roath doesn't need the bathroom mirror to tell him more bits are dropping off. Lillian does that for him, and she does a pretty good job on his shortcomings as well.
Roath's worries are affecting his sleeping; what a pity he's in this state on the day Head Office stops by. And everyone seems very keen to speak their minds.
Roath thinks he's got problems? When ex-wife Ellen, the boss, and his analyst all take him into their confidence, he finds he's got their hang-ups to worry about, too.
