Peep Show stars Sophie Winkleman and Isy Suttie, known for their roles as Big Suze and Dobby, are calling on the UK Government to endorse child-safe phones. They are urging both Labour and Conservative parties to include a ban on smartphones for under-16s in their manifestos. Winkleman, who appeared on the show Never Mind the Ballots on June 6, emphasized the negative impact of smartphones on children's ability to read books and focus in school, describing it as 'brain damage' and an 'absolute tragedy'. She believes that a 'secret army' of school gate mums could influence the upcoming election if political parties address this issue. The campaign was highlighted in The Sun and featured @MrHarryCole.
