Drake's Progress was a British sketch show that aired on the BBC Television Service from 1957 to 1958. It was co-written by comedian Charlie Drake, who was also the show's lead performer. The series no longer exists.
Drake's Progress aired for two series and a total of twelve 30 minute episodes. Both the first and second series broadcast on Mondays at 8.00pm, with the series one airing fortnightly. Due to the archival policies of the time, none of the episodes exist in the BBC archives and all are thought to have been wiped.
