Nigel Planer is the Man With No Nameworm. Smaller than a tree, but bigger than a ball, the Man With No Nameworm lives a solitary and rather boring existence in a miniature chalet in Jinsy's abandoned model village.

Peter Serafinowicz

Peter Serafinowicz, who appears in the second episode of This Is Jinsy, plays Eric Dunt, a seedy and unscrupulous cupboard salesman, who discovers he can make a killing touting his second-rate wares after the people of Jinsy become convinced he is The Great He (the hugely worshipped but never seen governor of Jinsy island).
