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.
