Fonejacker character George Agdgdgwngo. His catchphrase is "Scam the UK, the Augustus way". He tries to gain people's bank account details by pretending to be a

Beefeater, and others. • • • • •
Brian Badonde is a charlatan art critic who ineptly presents his fictional television show
Voyage into Art with Brian Badonde.
Voyage into Art explores and demonstrates the wonders of the art world, delving into subjects ranging from
pottery,
glass blowing,
wine tasting, and dancing. Brian is a parody of the art critic
Brian Sewell. He suffers from a
speech impediment called "Bourettes", which forces him to begin certain words with the letter B. He occasionally encounters a loss of vocal control and ends up spluttering out noises such as "Bwah", "Boh", and "Bah". He is an overt homosexual who often attempts to flirt with the men he meets in his journeys. His trademark pashmina and extravagant shirts are seen in a diverse range of bright colours. Throughout his appearances he has been involved in a
life drawing class, throwing pottery, getting himself into a noisy "MC battle" with a street youth, writing poetry, and attempting to make a documentary about Andy Warhol. Brian also appeared in a mini-series promoting the web search engine
Bing, titled
The Art of Technology. •
Terry Tibbs is a bald,
Cockney, second-hand car salesman from
Rickmansworth. He makes a TV show,
The Real Terry Tibbs, to make himself recognisable as the real Terry Tibbs and not the character from
Fonejacker. He appeared on several TV shows such as
Come Dine with Me,
Secret Millionaire,
Price-drop tv, and his own show ''Lizard's Lair
(a parody of Dragon's Den). He originally wanted Lizard's Lair
to be called Terry's Hole'' so that he could say, "Are you man enough to enter Terry's Hole?". •
Aziz Azizzi is a journalist working for a fictional show named
World Modern Developments for Iraq TV. Similar to Mr. Doovdé from
Fonejacker, he believes that
acronyms and initialisms are how words are spelt and not pronounced and, as a result, he mistakes them for pronounceable words such as "Joovc" (
JVC) and "Puck" (
PC). He is accompanied by a man simply known as "Translator". The
Arabic subtitles displayed onscreen are actually English words written in a faux-Arabic font reversed to make the text look authentic. Along with Patrick, he is one of only two
Facejacker characters played by Novak without the use of
prosthetics. •
Dufrais Constantinople is a disabled computist with interests in media. He is Jewish (he can be seen wearing a
Yarmulke) and is extremely demanding of assistants and helpers. He is in a wheelchair because he was hit jousting in a historical re-enactment, claiming, "He didn't even say charge". He is based on the character of the same name from
Fonejacker. •
Zulfi is a French fast food photographer, who likes every little detail of a dish to be perfect and treats fast food like models, giving them make-up and shouting commands at them during photo shoots. •
Dr. Ali is an Iraqi
plastic surgeon who overreacts to his customers' appearances, telling them that they are ugly and will have to pay for beauty. He would also overcharge them after their surgery. He claims to be the former plastic surgeon of
Saddam Hussein. •
Donald Donaldson is a director who tried to make it in Hollywood, but after a tragic accident that killed four extras on his 1966 film
Three Kings of Zanzibar, he quit Hollywood and returned to England. He currently works with animals to try to make them into stars. •
Augustine Kwembe is the twin sister of Augustus. She is also from the republic of Uganda. In the first episode of the second series, she works as a minicab driver inspector, with unsuspecting trainees subjected to her inappropriate behavior. Later on in the series, she poses as a lollipop lady to help people recreate the Beatles'
Abbey Road album cover (with a small charge). •
Ray Fakadakis is a
Scouser who has just been released from
Pentonville prison; he gives career advice to school leavers. He may have been based on Scouse Steve from
Fonejacker. •
Patrick is a flamboyant contestant on Terry Tibbs' show
The Apprentibbs. He was
planted in one of the two teams competing for Terry Tibbs to hire them, and argued with the team's leader so much that he left the team before they could meet Terry Tibbs in person (this was actually done so that Kayvan Novak could appear as Terry Tibbs when the two teams pitched their finished ideas to him). Along with Aziz Azizzi, Patrick is one of only two
Facejacker characters played by Novak without the use of prosthetics.
Voices The Fonejacker voices characters that are heard, but not seen. He himself is seen performing the voices, usually hidden around the corner from the machine he is voicing. He voices Automated Machine, Mr. Providings, Janec, and other characters as part of the
audio tour. He also adopts a Northern Irish accent for the scenes in 'Moira's Drive-through'. •
Automated Machine is a Northern Irish automated voice that has appeared on several occasions. It is similar to the
Fonejacker character Irish Mike and has so far been heard in Moira's drive through, on a series of
Cambridge, and as an elevator voice. In the second series, it appeared with both a
Yorkshire accent and an
American accent. •
Mr. Providings, is an Indian man based on Sajnu from
Fonejacker who works at a fast food restaurant in
Moira, County Down,
Northern Ireland called American Fried Chicken. He is forced to take over from the Automated Machine after it has "technical difficulties," or "goes mad," as well as being a worker on a
lift. •
Yanek is a Polish man who works as a maintenance worker for lifts.
