Ha Ha Hee Hee on TV
Syal to star in BBC version of her novel
Meera Syal is to star in a BBC1 adaptation of her novel Life Isn’t All Ha Ha Hee Hee.
Her partner, and Kumars co-star, Sanjeev Bhaskar will play her on-screen husband in the comedy-drama which is being filmed next month.
The series is expected to air in February or March next year.
The book, Syal’s second novel, revolves around three successful Asian women who have been friends since school – but whose relationships are tested when one has an affair with another’s husband.
Syal told actors’ newspaper The Stage: “It is an all-Asian drama which is great but, more than that, it is just a really good mainstream story about marriage and relationships which everyone can relate to.”Published: 28 Sep 2004
