Swift & Shift Couriers

Loved Fat Pizza? Check! Think Paul Fenech is a comedic genius? Check! Think politically correctness has gone too far? Check! If you answered yes to all three to these questions than the SBS series Swift & Shift Couriers is right up your alley.

From the wonderfully deluded and twisted mind of Paul Fenech (Pauly from Fat Pizza) comes his next comedy series that is set in one of Australia's worst and politically incorrect companies, Swift and Shift Couriers.

Set in the socio-economically challenged suburb of Hashfield which also happens to be one of the worst branches of the Swift & Shift Couriers and its time for the regional manager Amanda (Amada Keller) to straighten things up. Unfortunately for Keith (Iam Turpie), the manager of this local branch, his worst nightmares have come to life with Amanda giving Keith six months to turn this business around.

Plagued with almost every politically incorrect character ever conceived, Keith has an uphill battle as his staff are lazy, mentally challenged and just don't give a rats to the company itself.

Paul Fenech stars as "Mario" who was given that name by Kiwi Kev (Kev Taumata) who saw Mario being chased by his cousin who looked like Donkey Kong, however he was named "Luigi". You immediately know from the first episode that you are in for a treat as the series is oozing with Australian clichés and stereotypes.

The episodes are quite varied, entertaining and will make you blush at how politically incorrect things can be from the mentally challenged son of a staff member from head office or the Asian courier who cannot speak English, it's crass, it's bad, it's funny and best of all, it's one of the best bloody entertainment experiences of the year.

Paul Fenech deserves an Logie!
