"Sorted" is a BBC television drama series, first broadcast in 2006, and transmitted on BBC One and BBC HD. It was created by Danny Brocklehurst, who has also written "Clocking Off", "The Stretford Wives" and "Shameless". Sorted, the BBC's high profile postal drama, achieved 5 million viewers in the summer of 2006 and was the only drama that year to grow week on week in the ratings, despite this - and the largely good critical response - the BBC did not recommission the show.

The name of the series has a double meaning - postal workers 'sort' mail for delivery and "sorted" is a common slang word for approval used in Manchester.
