4 Extra Debut. Comedian Tez Ilyas presents a stand-up show about life as a British Muslim with his musings on ‘Integration’. From 2016.

Breakthrough comedian Tez Ilyas presents a show for everyone interested in – or interested in becoming – a British Muslim.

Producer: Sam Bryant

A BBC Studios production for BBC Radio 4, first broadcast in August 2016.
