You would not want to put it to her this way, but there is clearly something about Jane Horrocks that says "supermarket". A former star of a long-running Tesco ad, Horrocks stars here in a new sitcom about the employees of Valco supermarket. It's neither surreal nor pathos-filled, instead it forms another addition to producer Ash Atalla's stable of shows that take a slightly edgy look at the utterly commonplace. Mark Addy and cool newcomer Joel Fry are among the other quality comedy talents lurking in the aisles.

John Robinson, The Guardian, 3rd August 2011

Sky1's really started amping up its original content recently and the latest result is brand new comedy Trollied. Is this going to be the supermarkets' answer to The Office? It's hard to tell straight away, but the cast is certainly strong - the fabulously expressive Jane Horrocks takes her place alongside Mark Addy who, fresh from being a king on Game of Thrones, becomes a butcher who really knows his bacon. Jason Watkins, Chanel Cresswell and Nick Blood are among the other stars joining the lineup at budget store Valco, so settle in for a double bill (or, um, buy one, get one free) and we'll see if it gets us rolling in the aisles (it's got to do better than that pun, for sure).
