A Nice Day at the Office is an Australian comedy series which screened on the ABC in 1972. This series was originally one episode of the anthology series The Comedy Game which screened in 1971. It was intended that some of the episodes could act as pilots for series. The other successful episodes which led to series were Our Man In Canberra, Scattergood: Friend of All and Aunty Jack. The lead role of Sean Crisp was played by John Bell in the pilot, but when he was unavailable for the series, Rod McLennan took over. Also, Neal Fitzpatrick who played Ted Harvey had limited availability, so the planned 13 episodes were cut back to seven.
