C4's new comedy about a female Muslim punk band

Channel 4 has released the first trailer for its new comedy We Are Lady Parts.

Written and directed by Nida Manzoor, of Hounslow Diaries fame, the six-part series revives around all-female Muslim punk band.

The group comprises   Amina Hussain (Anjana Vasan), a geeky microbiology PhD student, who’s on the lookout for love;  fierce and enigmatic frontwoman Saira (Sarah Kameela Impey); and taxi-driving drummer Ayesha (Juliette Motamed) and cartoon-drawing bassist and backing vocalist Bisma  (Faith Omole).

We Are Lady Parts is set to air on Channel 4 later this summer, although no broadcast date has yet been confirmed, and on the streaming platform Peacock in the US.
