''The Rag Trade'' is a British television sitcom broadcast by the BBC between 1961 and 1963 and by LWT between 1977 and 1978. The scripts were by Ronald Wolfe and Ronald Chesney, who later wrote ''Wild, Wild Women'', ''Meet the Wife'' and ''On the Buses''. ''Wild, Wild Women'' was a period variation of ''The Rag Trade''. The action centred on a small clothing workshop (the title refers to the textile industry), ''Fenner's Fashions'' in London. Although run by Harold Fenner (Peter Jones) and Reg Turner the foreman and pattern cutter (Reg Varney), the female workers are led by militant shop steward Paddy Fleming (Miriam Karlin), ever ready to strike, with the catchphrase "Everybody out!" Other cast members included Sheila Hancock (as Carole Taylor), Esma Cannon (as Lily Swann), Wanda Ventham (as Shirley) in series 2 and Barbara Windsor (as Gloria) in series 1 and (as Judy) in series 3 replacing Sheila Hancock. ''The Rag Trade'' was revived by ITV company LWT in 1977, with Jones and Karlin reprising their roles. The 1977 version ran for two series, most of the scripts being based on the BBC episodes from the 1960s, and featured Anna Karen (reprising her role as Olive from ''On the Buses'') and future ''EastEnders'' star Gillian Taylforth as factory workers. The theme tune for the LWT series was written and performed by Lynsey De Paul. In 1990 the series was remade as the series ''Fredrikssons Fabrikk'' by NRK in Norway, it ran for three seasons (1990–93) (17 half hours and one 45min special) and spawned a film version ''Fredrikssons Fabrikk - The Movie'' in 1994 with a script credited to Chesney and Wolfe, and Norwegian series writer Andreas Markusson. ==Episode list== On original transmission many early episodes of The Rag Trade were not given titles so some are from production notes and repeat screenings. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Rag Trade」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
