Living With The Infidels, our 5-part comedy web series has now been released.

Developed with the full blessing of a senior member of the British Muslim Council, Living With The Infidels centres around a bumbling, Bradford-based terror cell. Initially set on a path to martyrdom, Yorkshire’s jihadi warriors discover the West isn’t as bad as it seems. Tempted by the likes of Man U, cable TV and ample Abi upstairs, what’s a man to do? Will they find Paradise in the arms of seventy-two virgins, or is Shangri-La closer to home, propped up at the bar in The Dog and Duck?
