DAISY
I just wanted to be a normal girl.. Trying to create gadgets that would improve the human condition.. Like slimming perfume..
The spray-on afro..
And the make-your-own midget..
And when I came up with maxi growth powder I never intended any harm..
Boys! You've got to help!
Dad has sent out some Maxi Growth Powder! You have to help me get it back! If it gets into the atmosphere it could destroy the world!
We've gotta get there before Dad!
Ehm… sorry to interrupt your little macho stand off but I think we got a situation here…
TROY:
Just leave that to me.
Hey, I click my fingers, things happen. Get over it.
Look at all those losers waiting for their fix of maxi growth powder!
Come on, guys. Wise up. Giant burgers are one thing, but giant people just aren’t cool. Unlike yours truly!
Hey, the death of one fat guy is a small sacrifice in the fight against useless gadgets.
ERNIE (Ethnic)
Mum’s disappeared? Of course I’m worried. My underpants haven’t been washed in three weeks!
I’ve swallowed one! I’ve swallowed an invisible fish!
Too right we’ve got to do something. The whole world is beginning to stink of dead fish.
Cuanto es el franqueo! You’ve beaten me again!
PILL
Wow! The new Billion G ultra smart phone.
Yes. Of course. Hey, guys, did I ever tell you that Pill is actually the diminutive for Pilsbury.
Pilsbury is a hamlet in the English county of Derbyshire, approximately 2 miles north of Hartington. It is on the side of the valley of the River Dove that forms the border with the county of Staffordshire.
Hey, guys!
Yes, I mean you! You bunch of stinking undead losers! Want some fresh meat? Well here I am. Come and get me!
We are looking for expressive voices. A shortlist of applicants will be invited to a recording session at Telegael in Spiddal to audition and those chosen for a role in the series will be invited to a further recording session.
If you’re interested in being one of these faces or Voices please email the form and data protection consent form (click here) followed with your picture/voices to siobhan.bairead@telegael.com
