Turtle's Progress is a British television series, created by Edmund Ward and broadcast between 23 April 1979 and 4 July 1980.
The characters of Turtle and Razor Eddie had first appeared in 1975 in The Hanged Man, also created by Edmund Ward.
The series was an ITV ATV Drama and dealt with a petty criminal named Turtle and his minder, "Razor" Eddie, who by accident come into possession of the proceeds of a major bank robbery.
Each episode of the show dealt with Turtle and Eddie opening one box and dealing with its contents.
Part of the humour came from the interplay between Turtle and Superintendent Rafferty, who knew they did the crime, had no evidence on which to act, but lurked about in hope of a break.
