The Private World of Miss Prim is an Australian television sitcom which first screened on the Nine Network in 1966. The series followed the adventures of secretary, Miss Prim, working in the world of the children's court, who was often given to flights of fancy. It was produced by NLT Productions.[1]
The Private World of Miss Prim was supposed to run for 13 episodes but ended after 11 episodes.
The series is on the National Film and Sound Archive's 'most wanted' list, as only the pilot episode is known to have survived.[2]
"It just didn't work out," said Bruce Gyngell, managing director of TCN-9. "On paper it seemed to be an exciting concept... We tried to be too believable in the dream sequences... There was no pathos in it."[3]
