About the show
Sliced is a crisp, urban comedy for Dave set amongst the hustle & bustle of a low rent, back street South London pizza parlour. It follows delivery riders Joshua (Samson Kayo) & Ricky (Theo Barklem-Biggs) through their shifts, so viewers get to see their world, first hand - a world where counterfeit money, vindictive call centre staff, hopeless security guards, hedonistic pensioners, & aggressive teens reign supreme. Fast food delivery has never been so much fun.
Sliced is written by Samson Kayo and Phil Bowker. It’s a little slice of life. Only much weirder. And with extra cheese.
