Ninia Benjamin, Tameka Empson and Jocelyn Jee Esien play a range of comical characters to the unsuspecting public.[2] Varying from a fictional celebrity named Marcia Brown, to a charity worker who only wants a kiss or a hug instead of a cash donation.

Two series of the comedy have been broadcast, both were released on a DVD boxset on 22 November 2004; distributed by Paramount Home Entertainment. In an interview concerning her own sketch show, Little Miss Jocelyn, Jocelyn hinted that a third series would probably not be filmed, as they became too well known. The public would either identify them or play along with the sketches, much to the stars' embarrassment.

In 2003, they were listed in The Observer as one of the 50 funniest British comedy acts.

In 2007, Trouble TV picked up the series and showed it Mondays at 9:00 pm until the channel got axed.

In 2010, Jocelyn Jee Esien starred in her own spin-off to the show called One Non Blonde: Down Under that began to air on 21 September. In it she takes three of her characters on a tour of New Zealand.[3]

Cast

gollark: Well, I'm not really into combat stuff like DivineRPG.
gollark: Probably because 300 mods is quite a lot.
gollark: Well, yes. You can't expect a game to perform the same when several hundred times more content is added.
gollark: Quest books can't really fix the performance issues though.
gollark: Probably.
