Dr. Stuart Ashen (born 16 December 1976), commonly known by his online alias Ashens /ˈæʃənz/, is a British comedian, animator, actor and online reviewer of various (usually poor quality tech or food) products.

Ashen is from Heartsease Estate, Norwich and attended Heartsease High School. He previously worked for PC World and Norwich Union.

Ashen made his first television appearance on a 2008 episode of Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe, where he played a cameo role as Mr Noseybonk, a character from the 80's BBC children's show Jigsaw.

Ashen guest starred on The Armstrong and Miller Show for their "The Node" segment in October 2009.

In 2010, Ashen created the series Ashen's Tech Dump for BBC Online Comedy. In 2011 Ashens co-starred alongside Karen Hayley in another BBC Online Comedy series Back Space. In 2012 he starred as himself in The Proxy, a sci-fi webseries produced by ChannelFlip in partnership with Dell Alienware. The series took eight days to film, consists of 10 episodes and won a Marketing Week "Engage Award" in the "Gaming and Entertainment" section.

Ashen released the book Fifty-Thousand Shades of Grey on 23 September 2012; it parodies the erotic novel Fifty Shades of Grey. The title is literal, as the book simply consists of the phrase "Shades of Grey" repeated 50,000 times.

In 2013, Ashen, along with Emma Blackery, Dan Howell (danisnotonfire) and Phil Lester (AmazingPhil), starred as a contestant in a re-make of the 1980s TV show Knightmare during the YouTube Geek Week event.
