Series 2, Episode 4 - Shaparak Khorsandi

Stephen Mangan interviews self-styled "spit and sawdust stand-up" Shaparak Khorsandi, whose career also embraces success as a satirist, novelist and screen-writer. She reveals a secret act of vandalism in her primary school loos, a story of hand cuffs and impulsive behaviour and a tendency for taking comic retribution.
