Bro I worked for o2 and I'll say it's 100% accurate! The worst date I pever went on was in that exact same zizzis.... There's was one quote which made me laugh so hard I cried and stopped breathing.... When talking about insurance "the only thing we are better at than selling is misselling" if you worked in a phone shop you KNOW!
Worked at P4U as well, top earners league days! This show is so accurate, we lived the dream then, got paid so we'll, all walking in to work in flash suits 😂😂 p4u was the wolf of wall st of the phone shops.
This show digs into the psyche of what life was like in those times and the climate of the work place when climbing the cooperate ladder. It’s portrays the different scenarios of what happens in a close knit (localised) work space with people from different walks of life, with their own problems and characteristics on how they see life. The rank system in every workplace is highly polarised, mixed in with comedy and clever one liners- made this show really enjoyable. I’m sure a lot of people who watch this could relate that to real life people they’ve come across!
Agreed. It's like looking back through a lense of exactly what it was like back then especially working on the high street. Definitely nostalgic. We had it good then and we didn't know it.
😂😂😂😂 No. I worked in retail. It has a few elements that hit home, but the rest is over exaggerated, sometimes surreal, but *very funny* nonsense. Your comment is gold, though 😂😂!
There’s a few Ross Kemp references in the series like the painting of him urinating on people in a skip and when razz Prince says ‘you said it was a Ross kemp replica’😂
we work dat shop floor from the till to the door and even out back where we smokin some draw - but we dont really do that so dont try to get me written up for that business there
One of the most underrated shows in British TV
It’s one of the only shows, that I can watch over and over
@@Project_Weaver Would you put on a par with Men Behaving Badly?
@@BroskiRIP I was never a fan of that tbh with you
True dat
It’s not underrated though
i worked at phones4u and this show is 99% accurate

Phone Shop followed by The IT Crowd. What a time to be alive.
😊
Nah that IT crowd wasn't nothing compared to this, phone shop was actually funny
Add hustle to the list
@@bishyeahbish3758 Cause you didnt understand anything computing I guess, IT crowd was amazingly funny.
They definitely should have done more of these, i loved it always makes me laugh

I must have watched this show through 10 times and didn't know this pilot existed!! So surreal
This was difficult to find, I managed to find it years back and kept hold of it, can’t find it anywhere else
It's on the the dvd of series 1.@@Project_Weaver
@@Project_WeaverWell done for finding it!
‘This ain’t a meeting, it’s a me-ting….’
This show needs watching a few times. There is some clever gags in it tat go unnoticed first time around.
Amazing. One of the best shows ever
one of the bet shows still watching in 2024
I know them word by word 🤣🤣
Criminally overlooked and never renewed
I mean it got 3 series.. that’s pretty good for Channel 4
Loved this show - absolute crime that it ended...
It was so British.Brilliant ,I don't think it travelled well overseas.
It wasn't pretentious enough for the yanks. @@minigrande1939
one of the best shows to hit british television
I always preferred this to the actual first episode
Totally agree. Same goes for Toast of London imho.
I served a five year stint at Carphone Whorehouse and this is exactly dead-nuts on!! Bloody comedy genius.
Up there in the Comedy Premier League.......Magic ;)
"Janine, We got a pay as you go here"
Thats cold 🤣
Literally the funniest thing I have ever seen. Underrated beyond all belief
Black man Graham 😂😂😂😂
14:21 the Ross Kemp line always gets me
There’s a few Ross Kemp references in the series like the painting of him urinating on people in a skip and when razz Prince says ‘you said it was a Ross kemp replica’😂
Selling phones is scary sometimes
Please add more!! This show is great but very hard to find
23:50 this line from jerwaine will never leave my head
Died you notice he went back to hiss government voice?
we work dat shop floor from the till to the door and even out back where we smokin some draw - but we dont really do that so dont try to get me written up for that business there
Reminds me of the crazy old Carphone Warehouse days!
In the non wireless stores days!
2022 reboot please.. LETS GO!!!!
Yes please

Nophoneshop left
Leave the classics in peace

Great show and it's the pilot about to watch the rest
"black man Graham"

Fire!
Dude can drop lingua!
Brilliant writing and the music was cool too
What a program!!!
The Whaling Wall 😂😂
Bring bck this show man
Interesting that the opening music for the pilot is what they used for the escorting scene, Lance in his bike shorts 🤣
Just came back to re-watch and I realised it too.
Javonne Prince has a bit of an obsession with Omar as he had him as his house band on The Javonne Prince show.
@@DC-uf6ve I knew Omar and he is an A,hole with an A,hole haircut 😄
Loved the show so funny !!! Please put the other episodes on
You’re a gem for uploading these.
Tell me, do you like the films of Jude Law?
NO man likes Jude Law!
The influence of Ricky Gervais is all over comedy of this era. To an unsettling level.
I am amazed this did not take off
I mean it did had 3 series and was brought back between 2010/2011/2013.. it had a solid run
Yooo!! Blackman Graham!!
WOT?? BLACKMANGRAHAM???
Can only see her now as Fiona from Kill List
What a movie that is!
Great to see Sutton high street
I just noticed the cutout of Gary Patel is giving the finger lol 😂

Im spluttering with laughter watching this again. 10:59 "The Whaling Wall" 😂
21.54 What did he say? It was enough to break character anyway.
Please tell me you have all the seasons?
if you from UK just go on 4OD every episode except this pilot is on there if not from UK use VPN then go on all 4
I ain't CRB checked.
😂😂😂😂
ABSOLUTELY EPIC SHOW😂❤
still great
The Catford hatrick
Why was this not the official 1st episode, it’s so much better
When selling you gotta be able to flirt gently. Careful though😳, they might take it too far.
"Whaling Wall"
The saxophone guy was so good!!!
Good Time Sax Man 😂
Superb comedy.😅😅.
Amazing that Tom Bennett is now on hotd
I only know that bird from Toast, in which she played the same exact person. She stole every scene she was in. Hilarious.
Blackman Graham
Sad thing is theres really people this sad out thete
How did you find episode 0 it’s not on the Channel 4 on demand service
Those photos didn't age well in 2024 😂
This used to be on the ‘comedy showcase’ section of all4, and they removed it for some reason.
Is there a high quality version anywhere?
I downloaded this years ago and found it on a memory stick few weeks back. I was looking for it for ages
@@Project_Weaver I see. No idea why they removed it from streaming. Annoying because this is probably the best episode
It's back on all4 now
@@the-boring-car-guy the pilot? I can’t find it, where is listed?
