Hippopotamus
46-year-old Sunshine Desserts sales executive Reginald Iolanthe Perrin is clearly suffering a midlife crisis.

He wants something better for his life, but is unsure what.

Nightmare in the Park
Life is beginning to get on top of Reggie as he begins dictating abusive letters. Perhaps he needs a nice peaceful holiday. Unfortunately, his daughter Linda asks him to take her and her family to a safari park, as her husband Tom has crashed their car. Being cooped up in a hot car in a safari park is too much for Reggie, who gets out for a walk and has to be rescued from the lions.

Trying a Frenchman, Welshman, Scotsman and an Italian
