Mr. Khan reminds me of most of my boys fathers i grew up with and made my childhood Wayy more cooler 😂😁. I would be having the worst day and the uncles would know how to make me laugh. 💖😂😁

I love this show. I’m half Pakistani and it reminds me of my mother’s side of the family. Also, the actress who plays Naani is my Aunt

My mum and myself absolutely loved this show. We always loved the BBC comedys in NZ.

[nickcoles]

I can't believe this show was poorly rated, it's bloody hilarious 😂

"You are Muslim now Dave, you have to support Pakistan" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I wasn’t sure about this when it started. But it was a gem. Unfortunately programs like mind your language can never happen again.

[sandrafrancis]

One of the best shows. I can't understand why 'Friends' is still aired on TV but not this gem. I'm from India btw.

The original story line with the characters was written by a Pakistani lady ‘Pumpi Moore’. It was based upon her personal experiences within the Pakistani families she met when she arrived in the UK. It was a humorous take on British Pakistanis and their cultural conflicts with British society. The manuscript was presented to the BBC but they declined saying they didn’t have funds etc or it was not of current interest to them. A couple of years later this show appeared on national TV. I still have her original handwritten manuscripts with her directions lying forgotten in some box somewhere,

Good shows get cancelled, even though this is written by an actual Pakistan person. Do people even KNOW what Racism even means anymore?! I may know this show well, but It made me smile, and I'm sure it brought smiles to alot of us Brits and fellow Pakistan peeps too!

"Chup
Chup
Chup
Chup
I said Chup! IS THIS NOT BLODDY WORKING?" 😅

[boszlywekxzer]

"So you can do your duty like a good husband should"
"But its not my birthday for another 3 months"
BRUH!

[MoBizzie]

The game of cricket will never be the same again.

[primojonpresents]

This is a masterclass for contemporary sitcome. It has all the elements of a good sitcom, within an ethnic setting and tackling matters wuthout hessitation. Its brave and its funny.

[maelughran]

Brilliant acting by Adil Ray, in this under-rated comedy. One of the best written, funny sit coms ever produced.
The Khan family are superb too. Overall a show that ought to bring people together. If Sparkhill wasn't on the map before it certainly will be now.

[Dynamic..]

This show is hidden gem among comedy sitcoms

[zactoz]

“Gives us unlimited talk time, always a good signal and pray as we go” 😂🤣😂🤣😂

[xtheamazingax]

Man, I love this show. There were so many moments that made me burst out laughing for minutes straight!
