A workplace sitcom built on recognisable character types and the absurdities of supermarket life, pitched for comfort and ensemble humour rather than narrative depth.

Set in Valco, a fictional budget supermarket in the north west of England, Trollied finds the funny in one of our most familiar surroundings and focuses on the types of characters we all recognise: bored checkout staff, ineffectual managers and a range of customers, from the irate to the downright bizarre.
