"Tripping Over" is a British/Australian 6-part drama series. Its first episode aired on Network Ten in Australia on 25 October 2006, and in the United Kingdom on Five on 30 October 2006.
The show is about three friends in London and two friends in Sydney. Neither group knows each other, but their parents do. They 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 follows the two groups of friends as they continue on their trips to each other's countries and back home.
The programme focuses on the major life changes that occur during the mid-twenties, and how choices made then can affect a person's life for many years to come.
Filmed from 8 May to 11 August 2006.
Rebecca Gibney (Lydia) and Nicholas Bell (James) also worked together on Wanted (2016) as Lola Buckley and Ray Stanton.
