Asian Network Comedy

2015-2018

Live in London 2014

Duration: 30 minutes

BBC Asian Network’s Tommy Sandhu hosts the cream of Asian stand-up comedy. Recorded at the BBC Radio Theatre earlier this year, with performances from Tez Ilyas, Aditi Mittal, Anil Desai and Romesh Ranganthan.

Giving his unique insight into today’s multicultural Britain, Lancashire-born Londoner Tez Ilyas deconstructs modern society and popular culture with cutting humour and an unapologetic wit.

One of India’s few female stand up comedians and regular at The Comedy Store in Mumbai, Aditi Mittal is ranked in the top 10 comedians of India and she’s also 477th in line for the prestigious Mittal Steel fortune!

International man of mimicry, impressionist Anil Desai is the man with a voice for every situation and is affectionately known as 'the Stand-Up Chameleon'.

Winner of best newcomer at the Edinburgh Comedy Awards 2013, as seen on Mock the Week and Live at the Apollo, Romesh Ranganathan tells cynical, irritable and hilarious anecdotes about the joys of life. Show less
