Rita and Wally was an Australian situation comedy series produced by ATN-7 in 1968. The series was a spin-off from My Name's McGooley, What's Yours? When the title character Dominic McGooley left that series it effectively continued as a new series under this title. The other regular cast members - John Meillon and Judi Farr as the title characters along with Noeline Brown - continued in the new series as their old characters. McGooley regular Stewart Ginn also continued in this series. Without the heavy makeup that previously transformed his appearance, he played a new character here. With the spin-off the main character Wally finally received a promotion to a white-collar job and the characters moved from their previous working-class area to more salubrious surrounds. Unfortunately once the show began it became apparent that the working class setting and conflicts, along with the character of McGooley, were crucial to the comedy of the situation and Rita and Wally ended after only a few months. Rita and Wally had a run of 23 half-hour episodes.
