Tripping Over is a British/Australian six-part drama series. Its first episode aired on Network Ten in Australia on October 25, 2006, and in the United Kingdom on Five on October 30, 2006. In the UK Tripping Over is repeated on Five Life.
The show is about three friends in London and two friends in Sydney, neither group knows each other but their parents do. They both take flights to each other's countries, and the two groups meet at the stop-over in Bangkok, where a tragic event changes their lives.
The series then follows the two groups of friends as they continue on their trips to each other's countries and back home. The program focuses on the major life changes that occur during the mid-twenties, and how choices made here can affect a person's life for many years to come. To emphasize this, Ned's parents are shown dealing with the repercussions of choices they made when they were young, particularly Lydia.
During the first episode, a large number of extras were used, and the 5 children used were from Bodens acting agency.
A second season has been commissioned by Network Ten Australia for the 2007 ratings season despite its less than stellar first season run.
