Nish Kumar: review

Nish Kumar is angry; but then he's got a lot to be angry about, from the socio-political dirty bombs of Brexit and Trump, to his comedy heroes letting him down, to a society that every day seems more visibly tipped towards the white man, no matter how incompetent or even murderous.

Nish Kumar, most recently seen on The Mash Report, introduces more excellent standups riffing on Anglo-Asian culture, including former hip-hop DJ Sunil Patel ("There's a lot of similarity between my life growing up in Bath and the lives of young black men in Compton") and Sukh Ojla ("I'm single by choice. It's not my choice").
