- 'We Are Lady Parts' is the brilliant new TV comedy following an all-female Muslim punk band, complete with some incredible original songs on the soundtrack like 'Bashir With the Good Beard', 'Ain’t No One Gonna Honour Kill My Sister But Me' and 'Voldemort Under My Headscarf', as well as some surprising cover versions. We chat through the making of Season 1 with the show's creator Nida Manzoor as well as the cast - Anjana Vasan who plays guitarist Amina, Sarah Kameela Impey as the lead singer Saira, Juliette Motamed as the drummer Ayesha, Faith Omole as Bisma the bass player and Lucie Shorthouse as Momtaz, the group's manager. Find out how they bonded as a band, their favourite musical moments, the show's accidental My Chemical Romance reference and what they would love to see happen in Season 2.
'We Are Lady Parts' is available on All 4 and Channel 4 in the UK and is streaming on Peacock in the US from June 03.

and on W on Canadian TV last nite and every Mon!
Honestly one of the best shows iive seen in a long long time- whole cast are so talented and the show is so unique and authentic!! praying for a s2!
I'm probably the polar opposite to the show's target demographic, but I remember punk the first time around and I think the show really captures the spirit of the scene: the exuberance and energy, the mix of serious and silly. There's some big themes here too - stuff about growing up between two cultures, finding your place in the world and finding your voice. Love the show!
I love the culture cross over with the punk music. Anyone should be punk if your mexican, italian, puerto rican, african it doesn't matter, voice it out anyway you can and wherever you come from.
@@dyr234 Yep!
I love this and I am an orthodox Jew so know of a certainty that this show is AWESOME
This show is so fucking good. I've recommended it to every person I know
I absolutely loved, loved, loved the show! I keep my fingers crossed for a season 2 with hopefully a few more episodes!
I want the episodes of Season 2 to be twice as long. It's SUCH a good show. I've been waiting my whole life for a show like this!
As a Muslim I absolutely loved this so much well done.
As a fan of The Tuts this was even better to see. The Tuts are a British all-female punk band from diverse backgrounds, and seeing this show was almost like how I imagine their formation. Check out The Tuts!
I binged this show in an afternoon, I loved this show so much!! The characters were both larger-than-life and wonderfully real, and the show was poignant and hilariously funny. You can really tell how much everyone loved making the show and how much effort went in to everything. I really related to Amina and her growth arc. Looking forward to season 2!!!
I'm in the middle of watching this now and loving it!
Amazing writing in this show and it's so good to see I absolutely love it. It'll inspire millions of girls, especially girls of colour! So nicely handled, and acted amazingly.
This show is amazing! I've watched it all twice already. Definitely keen for a season two!
Just saw the whole series myself, and really enjoyed it, lol!
The show is such a delight.
Aminas parents are absolutely adorable. Anjanas physicality as Amina is hilarious.
The songs are all catchy as hell.
Anybody else want to read The Killing Period?
Your blood is your friend!!!! 😂 Agreed to your comments. Love love love!
This is one of the BEST TV programs to come along in a LONG time. It has broken so many Islamic stereotypes and beliefs non-muslims have, including mine. I always saw the Niqab as a way to unfairly blame women for men's lustful thoughts. Momtaz says it gives her more confidence and she feels closer to God. There is actually a real mystique to it as well. I LOVE Momtaz.....only now seeing Ms. Shorthouse without it is like seeing KISS without makeup for the first time in 1983. Ms. Manzoor is a GENIUS. I loved and cared for each character within five minutes of meeting them, and my favorite character is definitely Ayesha. I front three Tribute bands now and know what its like to look back at the drummer, both of us with big smiles on our faces. There HAS to be more seasons! It was beautiful watching Saira help Amina come out of her shell, recognizing her sheer talent when Amina couldn't see it herself.
I am a white Colombian woman and this show resonates so much with me. I'm a life long fan of Lady Parts. This show oozes with heart and authenticity. I'm paying a Peacock membership exclusively to watch this show.
Same! Here Peaccock…take my money 🤑 and give us more #Ladyparts!
Watched it in Denmark. Best new show from Britain since Brexit.
Juliette with Sioux eye makeup namechecks Siouxsie. I love this girl.
I love how Monzoor's interests and influences fill out these characters, her love of old Hollywood, action films, etc. It's great to see writer/directors with personality!
Voldemort under my headscarf, really like this tune, wicked base line too
Watch it! I'm from the DIY-Post punk era and it's worthy of the Riot Grrrl punk scene they are trying to capture, with a modern twist. I can't wait for the next season. This is one of the funniest, smartest shows I've seen in AGES!
I've been obsessed with this show from episode one. Highly recommend to anyone considering watching!!!!!!!
The show is so great!!!
This show is really one of the best things we've seen in years! Really incredible! If you've ever been in a band this will really hit home! The show transcends TV-can't get over how great this thing is! WOW!
This show was amazing! I find TV shows hard to finish, but this was captured my attention so hard. It was so good, every single character felt real and it was so grounded in reality while also being funny and emotional and about the coolest punk band!!
This show rocks man, stoked for season 2; its so awesome to see someone out there making something new and eye catching for us, its been a long time since a good series I think since eastbound and down.
The songs are awesome as well.
Ah I've been looking forward to this show, can't wait to watch it!
Best show I’ve seen in over 20 years. Utterly relatable, authentic, kickass, and hilarious. I literally listen to this album. We want more! Been waiting for season 2 forever! Please. We haven’t forgotten about you…
I love this show so much, listening to the soundtrack for hours! Thank you to the amazing actresses ❤️

I ADORE this show and want to share with my friends in Canada. How can Canadians view it?
I watched it on stacked TV which I got a free one month trial of via prime. In Canada I mean.
I really want to see a Season two, but seeing how long it took Season one to finally get aired, the actors won't look the same.
Amazing women and music
The entire show is available here on yt if any of you are interested
The shorts???? How does one get access to the shorts
can you get it on dvd
This show looks amazing! I was just wondering, what are the religions of the main actors? I would just love to know
They're orthodox Jews.

Have you all heard what's happening!
A woman was killed for showing too much hair! She was beaten to death in custody! As of 9 26 2022, 6 women have died and many have been wounded .those arrested have not been accounted for. Please spread the awareness of what is happening 🙏
I didn't catch the my chemical romance reference in the show, which part was it?
when amina was playing the solo for the charity show after her student dropped out! mcr covered the song on their first album
@@voidkisser7245 which song is it on the first album
@@dyr234 th-cam.com/video/wum629s8SNg/w-d-xo.html it's called "romance"
Firsssttt 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
please make saira lesbian😪😩🥺
I'm hoping Taz will be gay too, she's so cool, I love her 😩
As a man from America, I liked the show. However, I felt the plot went a little too fast. the characters went from relationships to out of relationships and back into them, rigidly orthodox to principally liberal, explored homosexuality, etc. all within 6 episodes. Kinda not a lot of character development either.
That said, I like the show because all of the parts are played by women: rebel, rigid, free-spirited, confused, hardworking, lonely and alienated, obstructionist and opportunistic. Men barely play a role in the show. I think this is good because it shows that women can have all of these attributes without the contribution of men.
I don’t think she was exploring homosexuality I think she was just being homosexual (or bisexual) and - at least with her friends - it was no big deal and that was kind of the point. They didn’t make Ayesha being gay in to a huge deal, it was just what it was. I kinda thought that was cool
@@lucillebalinska5868 Thank you so much for saying this!! Speaking from personal experience..not everyone is straight, and we don’t have to have a “coming out story” or have our entire identity framed around our orientation to exist in media. Especially considering the context of the show, being that it mainly focused on the interactions between this group of friends, it‘s entirely realistic that they would’ve already known Ayesha liked women prior to what we see over the course of s1
Disgusting

Not just Islam and it's Satanic heresy, the blatantly racist Asian supremacist colonisers being featured in our indigenous White British homeland where only we must be represented.
