The Peter Principle (broadcast as The Boss in the United States) is a British television sitcom. It was produced by Hat Trick Productions, and first broadcast by the BBC between 1995 and 2000 and by PBS in the United States. The series is set in the Aldbridge branch of the fictional County and Provincial Bank, featuring Jim Broadbent as the title character, its inept manager, and Claire Skinner, Daniel Flynn, Stephen Moore and David Schneider as staff. The program takes its name from the Peter Principle, a concept in management theory that states that workers are promoted to their level of incompetence.
Exterior scenes for the series were mainly filmed in Amersham, Buckinghamshire.
