    Dom Joly has a phone. And he's not afraid to use it.

From embassies to call centres, helplines to radio call-in shows, no one is safe.

Hit and miss, but well worth a listen.

Some episodes really made me laugh hard on the train. Others failed to find the mark. This series is bitesize and free, so well worth downloading.

Short and funny.

A great 15 minutes per episode. Like all comedy it's hit and miss but theres enough proper laughs and giggles per episode for my wife to want to know what I'm listening to, and now she is hooked too. Good work.

funny in parts

it's quite amusing and made me smile but the music/talking between calls ruins it for me

I saw some bad reviews so wasn't sure what to expect.. but I needn't have worried! if you like trigger happy TV you'll like this. some reviews bothered by the music, but again music was a big part of trigger happy TV, I think it definitely works.

Inspirational. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Passed many dull hours at work listening to this. Dom Joly's ability to entertain is an inspiration.

Treat your ears - this is brilliant!

I cannot recommend Earworm enough. I'm halfway through S1 - keep thinking about 'Gary' and snorting into my tea - and just can't get enough of the sublime mix of the subtle but brazen comedy and trance tunes playing out. An absolute earworm to treasure. Thank you.

Fun but...

I enjoyed this, but it became very repetitive & old hat as it went along. Not his his his best work but worth a listen, if not to all of them!
