Rosie Jones’ New Sitcom Pushers Starting Soon on Channel 4

Off The Kerb are pleased to announce that Rosie Jones‘ hilarious new show Pushers starts Thursday 19th June at 10:00 pm on Channel 4.

Written by Rosie and Peter Fellows and produced by Merman Television and 2LE Media, Pushers stars Rosie in her first ever sitcom.

Having had her state benefits cut to shreds after being made redundant, a young woman with very little left to lose begins to build an illegal drugs empire. But Emily (Rosie Jones) isn’t your average street-dealing dope peddler – she’s sharp, funny, biting, highly educated – and on top of all that, she has cerebral palsy. People have underestimated Emily her entire life. If they’re not patronising her for completing the most menial of tasks, they’re pretending she’s not there. What better disguise could there be for criminal activity than to be entirely written off by the same broken system which exists to protect the law?

Pushers was commissioned off the back of the award-winning Comedy Blap named Disability Benefits, which was created by Rosie Jones, Peter Fellows and Tom Thostrup and which won ‘Best Newform Drama Series’ at the C21 International Drama awards in 2022.
