PhoneShop

Obviously this comedy series was not made for my demographic (60+ ) but I latched on to it right away. I just cannot believe how funny it can be. The characters Jerwayne and Ashley are the key to it all and are so well performed you almost believe they are really like that.Tom Bennett as the newby Christopher is perfect also as the innocent middle-class type entering into the big bad world of mobile phone sales. It is not fair to single these guys out though because all the cast perform really well and are hilarious in their own way. The language may well put some viewers off but it is a necessary part of the characters' rhythm of speech. Great writing, performing and staging make this show terrific. I just wish it was a hour (sic) long!!! A HOUR!!!

I never expected to like this show... Someone told me about it and I felt seriously Meh at the description! But when I finally sat down and watched it I was surprised by how awesome it is! It is witty and intelligent anf doesn't hold back on telling you the ways in which phone companies will rinse you for your money...

Ashley and Jerwayne are brilliant as the veteran sellers trying to give advice to New Man Christopher... Advice which always leads to a laugh as Christopher is the complete opposite of his colleagues!

Well worth the time to watch... A Hidden Gem

Every character in this show is brilliantly cast. If you've ever worked in any sort of corporation, you will completely relate to these characters - every cringeworthy one of them. I've been waiting years to see series 3 and now it's back on c4, we're watching from the beginning again. So funny and so clever in equal measure.

One word for this show.. Genius.

This may go missing if shown to an American audience, but for the UK viewers its very easy to relate to and absolutely hilarious!

Easy to relate too, everybody in the UK knows what phone salesmen are like, the people who make this show also do and bring it across perfectly.

The two characters Ashley and Jerwayne are top notch, the banter they have is hilarious. I can't help but feel they are the stars of the show and if they were not in it then it wouldn't be half as funny. Don't get me wrong, the rest of the cast is good and there are many funny moments, but Ashley and Jerwayne really do steal the show.

The one negative for me would be Kayvan Novak (the man from fonejacker). His character is awful, thankfully he's not in it much!

It has now been announced that series 3 is to be released later this year. Lets hope for more of the same!

Stumbled across this by accident a few years back and very glad I did.

Clearly written by someone with experience in retail or sales.

I worked in mobile phone retail in London from 1998-2002. My first job when I left Uni - so absolutely relate to Christopher.

Trust me when I say some of the language and situations (inter branch rivalries etc) are bang on !!!

So many dodgy salesmen - there were at least 3 or 4 Razz Prince characters.
