Channel 4 All 4 E4 Comedy Showcase PhoneShop S01 E00 Pilot Episode - New Man 2009

Before PhoneShop was a Ting

[@1958Pa1958]

One of the most underrated shows in British TV

[@Project_Weaver]

It’s one of the only shows, that I can watch over and over

It’s not underrated though

[@KeithTheFA]

Phone Shop followed by The IT Crowd. What a time to be alive.

[@allisonbinns4536]

[@bishyeahbish3758]

Nah that IT crowd wasn't nothing compared to this, phone shop was actually funny

Add hustle to the list

[@11robkeen]

i worked at phones4u and this show is 99% accurate

[@SuperJutah]

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!

[@garypayne5511]

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.

[@JoeGillJoeGill96]

Can also say this is accurate having worked moons ago 🤣👊

[@koolboy895]

I always preferred this to the actual first episode

[@RalphBrooker-gn9iv]

Totally agree. Same goes for Toast of London imho.

[@beendoneagain]

This show needs watching a few times. There is some clever gags in it tat go unnoticed first time around.

[@paddyduarte236]

Amazing. One of the best shows ever

[@BoudicaJ]

Literally the funniest thing I have ever seen. Underrated beyond all belief

[@TheSmiler62]

Up there in the Comedy Premier League.......Magic ;)

[@mac473]

Interesting that the opening music for the pilot is what they used for the escorting scene, Lance in his bike shorts 🤣

[@Daswaggermasta]

Just came back to re-watch and I realised it too.

[@DC-uf6ve]

Javonne Prince has a bit of an obsession with Omar as he had him as his house band on The Javonne Prince show.

[@rand0mati0n]

14:21 the Ross Kemp line always gets me

[@maxthethird_]

one of the best shows to hit british television

[@nonameneededd]

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!

[@sratus]

.......ok

[@619wisey]

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.

[@sratus]

@@619wisey Let me guess... you were young then?

[@alimantado373]

Nahh. Just retail! work😂

[@breakfreak3181]

😂😂😂😂 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 😂😂!

[@proplayer002]

Black man Graham 😂😂😂😂
