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. He is commonly misconceived as Simon Pegg due to his similar appearance to the actor, and it is a frequently used joke among him and his friends.
Ashen is from Heartsease Estate, Norwich and attended Heartsease High School. He previously worked for PC World and Norwich Union.
Ashens is a youtube personality who has been making review videos on the site since approximately 2006. Ashens' videos originally focused on technology and gaming reviews but branched out into retro toys, imitation toys/games and unusual foodstuffs.
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.
