Kenneth Connor shines in the role of Percy Valentine, the station porter whose misadventures often provide a source of laughter and amusement. Not content with just one role, Connor also delights audiences with his portrayal of Mr. Bradshaw, the hapless signalman, and even lends his voice to Clara, the station hen, showcasing his versatility as a performer.

Liz Fraser brings her own brand of sass and charisma to the character of Gloria Simpkins, the station tannoy announcer whose announcements often veer into the realm of absurdity, much to the amusement of listeners. With a supporting cast that includes the likes of Bill Pertwee from Dad's Army and Roger Delgado, known for his iconic portrayal of The Master in Doctor Who, each episode of Parsley Sidings promises a delightful blend of humor, wit, and nostalgia.
