John Thomson and Sally Phillips have joined the cast of Sky One sitcom Trollied.

They will join the supermarket comedy for its upcoming seventh series, which kicks off with an hour-long Christmas special.

Cold Feet and Fast Show star Thomson plays Valco’s new employee Tim in the festive episode. Although he appears to be a star worker, he turns out out to be the head of a team of low-level criminals who hold the staff hostage in the canteen as they try to steal the takings. 

Phillips, most recently seen in Taskmaster, joins in the following episode,  playing the scatty new night manager as the store switches to 24-hour opening.

Also joining the cast is former Duty Free and Coronation Street star Gwen Taylor – who plays the mother of store manager Gavin (Jason Watkins) – 2016’s Strictly Come Dancing runner-up Danny Mac, formerly of Hollyoaks, and rising star Jess Gunning, who plays a new security guard called Donna.
