"The Swedish Tiger" is the eleventh episode of the first series of the British television series, ''Upstairs, Downstairs''. The episode is set in October 1908. "The Swedish Tiger" was among the episodes omitted from ''Upstairs, Downstairs'' initial ''Masterpiece Theatre'' broadcast in 1974, and was consequently not shown on US television until 1989.

''Upstairs, Downstairs'' is a British television drama series produced by London Weekend Television (LWT) for ITV. It ran for 68 episodes divided into five series on ITV from 1971 to 1975.
