Character guide

Mandy Wilkins

AKA: Mandy Wilkins.  Played by: Samantha Janus

Mandy is hopeless with work and love, normally getting through as many men as she does temporary jobs. Her taste for northern men makes her the butt of many a joke from Martin and especially Matthew.

Martin Henson

AKA: Martin Henson.  Bank Clerk.   Played by: Matthew Cottle

Martin is in his early 20s, works in a bank and is ginger, much to the amusement of Matthew, who rarely misses an opportunity to make a gag about Martin's auburn locks. He is obsessed with getting a girlfriend and finally "doing it".

Matthew Malone

AKA: Matthew Norman Malone.  Played by: Neil Stuke (Series 2-3) and Ben Chaplin (Series 1)

Matthew is in his early 20s and lives in a flat in Battersea. After the death of his parents in a road accident, he became agoraphobic. Unable to leave the flat, he spends his time watching videos and television and indulges in the odd bit of fantasy to pass the time.
