Real Housewives of ISIS - BBC
Discussion
Causing a bit of controversy this one. It's somewhat close to the bone.

I suspect that it's another politically motivated comedy, designed to dissuade female Muslims getting involved with brainwashed Islamic fascists. Will it work though?
If I am wrong and it's purely a comedy, I personally don't find it very funny at all Probably conceived by the same ilk who produced Citizen Khan, which was also dire.

Being that its the BBC, im surprised they didn't insist that the sketch was called "Real housewives of so-called ISIS".
Good one !To recognize them as a 'state' is not what the UK does..hence "so called"...
Or simply call them DAESH..

The same people who say ISIS have nothing to do with Islam are now complaining to say this show is anti-Islam. That's like someone saying "I'm against the Ku Klux Klan and they are not real Christians, but don't you dare make fun of the KKK because that is racist and offensive to Christians".
You can't have it both ways.

I am surprised that hasn't been pulled.
"It paints the wider Muslim Community in a bad light, suggesting that they are all Suicide Bombers and creates community divisions at a time when we should be reaching out to each other"...
They've got a point."It paints the wider Muslim Community in a bad light, suggesting that they are all Suicide Bombers and creates community divisions at a time when we should be reaching out to each other"...
Not all Muslims are suicide bombers. Some of them just drive trucks into large crowds of people.
