Charity Shop Sue is a British mockumentary web series broadcast on YouTube between October and November 2019. The series was created by Matthew and Timothy Chesney and Stuart Edwards and filmed in Bulwell, Nottingham, in the fictional charity shop Sec*hand Chances. It starred Selina Mosinski, Joyce Townsley, Sherrie Johnson and Nicola Harness. The series was popular with the LGBTQ+ community and received praise from The Guardian for being "bleak, relatable and so funny".[1]

Production

The mockumentary series Charity Shop Sue was created, written and directed by twin brothers Matthew and Timothy Chesney and Stuart Edwards, with Shane Meadows serving as executive producer.[2] The series filmed for three weeks in 2014, in Bulwell, Nottingham.[3] The location for Sec*hand Chances, the fictional charity shop used in the series was at the ExtraCare Charitable Trust, a real charity shop on Bulwell Main Street, next door to Poundland.[4]

A Christmas pilot, Charity Shop Sue's Christmas, aired on Notts TV in December 2017 as part of Sky Comedy, which featured a cameo from Nottingham-born actress Vicky McClure, who also produced the series, alongside Mary Kearns and Penny Linfield, the latter of whom appeared in the series' fifteenth episode.[5][6][7][8] The character of Sue Tuke, aka "Charity Shop Sue" (played by Selina Mosinski), began gaining online attention on social media in the late 2010s, and following on from the character's popularity, the series consisting of eighteen episodes was released on YouTube in October 2019, five years after it was filmed.[9][10][11]

Plot

Following on from Charity Shop Sue's internet fame, a group of local filmmakers release previously unseen footage from five years prior, when they were invited to film a documentary inside the charity shop Sec*hand Chances, which follows manager Sue Tuke and her group of volunteers, Vera, Kersch and Viki. Sue anticipates that partaking in the documentary will boost the shop's revenue and custom, with hopes of being noticed on the internet. Throughout the series, Sue is constantly coming up with overambitious schemes to save the shop from being closed down, which she frequently coerces her volunteers into going along with and results in a series of fiascos that sees her refuse to take part in anymore filming.[1]

Cast and characters

Main

Sue Tuke (Selina Mosinski) – the domineering, power-hungry and borderline sociopathic manager of Bulwell-based charity shop Sec*hand Chances. She is a former fashion stylist who previously worked for multiple celebrities in Paris and Milan, and is constantly coming up with new ideas in an attempt to boost the failing shop's image and custom, whilst undermining her volunteers and occasionally manipulating her customers with her optimistic schemes.
Vera Goodard (Joyce Townsley) – an elderly volunteer who frequently criticises Sue's management skills and behaviour. She is kind and understanding, but quickly grows tired of Sue's schemes and is usually the first to voice her opinion which usually results in her bickering and arguing with Sue.
Kersch Callahan (Sherrie Johnson) – a delivery driver who joined the shop as part of a probation scheme. She is good natured and credits the shop with helping people get back on their feet. She met a girl named Ally in prison and is waiting for her to be released. Kersch often goes along with Sue's schemes as not to rock the boat, but can at times take control of situations which agitates Sue.
Viki Wilson (Nicola Harness) – the youngest of the volunteers who is quieter than the rest and is often taken advantage of by Sue and her boyfriend Dwayne. She is creative and is often seen making her own greetings cards and other craft items. Viki plays the keyboard and performs songs with her friend Madalicat363. She also rescues a dog whom she names Dodo and is upset when she has to give her away.

Belinda (Jackie Edwards) – Sue's sister with whom she has a strained relationship with. She sticks her fingers up at Sue whilst walking past the shop and later gets involved in argument with her over their mother's belongings and ends up storming out. She later runs into the shop to use the toilet, and Sue gives her a stack of newspapers as a substitute for toilet paper.
