TV Pick - March 2016 The Independent - By Gerard Gilbert - March 10th, 2016

Thursday’s best TV - March 2016 The Guardian - By Ali Catterall - March 10th, 2016

Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle – 10pm, BBC2 “I assure you, within three minutes, on this television programme, on this stage, a Muslim will have been lampooned.” Well, sort of.
