More shop based shenanigans and over the counter philosophy, courtesy of Ramesh Mahju and his trusty sidekick Dave.

Written by and starring Donald McLeary and Sanjeev Kohli. This 2nd series sees guest appearances from Nina Wadia, currently starring in Eastenders, and even Sanjeev's brother Hardeep Singh Kohli making an appearance in one episode as a fellow shop owner. Gerard Kelly also reprises his role as Father Henderson.

Ramesh Mahju has built it up over the course of 30 years, and is a firmly entrenched feature of the local area. Ramesh is ably assisted by his shop sidekick Dave, a forty-something underachiever who shares Ramesh's love of the art of shopkeeping, even if he is treated like a slave.

Then of course there are Ramesh's sons Sanjay and Alok, both surly and not particularly keen on the old school approach to shopkeeping, but natural successors to the business, and Ramesh is keen to pass all his worldly wisdom onto them whether they like it or not.
