Omid Djalili: the Good Times Tour Bound and Gagged Comedy Presents Omid Djalili: The Good Times Tour From March 2021 “There’s something quite lived in about Iranian British comedian Omid Djalili that gives him the ability to tell jokes about subjects that would generally be off limits”. ★★★★ The Daily Record “Funny… and extremely moving” Belfast Telegraph “A hilarious combination of music, jokes and political satire … Djalili made a night full of cheer and cheese with such immense energy it was hard not to have a smile on your face for the entire night”. The New Yorker Bound and Gagged Comedy are delighted to announce that, award-winning British-Iranian actor/comedian, OMID DJALILI will be taking to the road with a brand new UK tour. The Good Times Tour will begin in March 2021. And it could not come soon enough for Omid - after experimenting with a Zoom gig where he got muted by 639 people and a drive-in gig where he witnessed an audience member get out his car, attach a hose pipe to his exhaust and feed it through the window; multi award-winning comedian and actor Omid Djalili is now where he belongs, on a stage and bringing back the Good Times. Well-loved for his legendary stand-up shows, Omid’s performances are famed for their piercing wit - with routines that range from the provocative to the silly. Omid’s stand-up is always highly energetic, incredibly passionate and above all supremely entertaining. With a career in comedy spanning across three decades, Omid Djalili's renowned performances on stage and screen have won him fans and accolades all over the world, in The Good Times Tour Omid will wax lyrical about life, the universe, and the unfathomable world in which we find ourselves. A firm favourite at the Edinburgh Festival, Omid's stand-up awards include the Time Out Award for Best Stand Up and the EMMA Award. He's also been a nominee for a Perrier Award and the South Bank Award. Omid was also awarded a Best Actor award at the Turin Film Festival for his lead performance in The Infidel. His credits range from Hollywood to television, the West End Stage to his critically acclaimed performance as Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof. Omid’s drama, Letter For The King is currently showing on Netflix and he is filming a second series of His Dark Materials. He will be hosting the brand new ITV quiz show Winning Combination that starts in November.

Breaking the molds Representations of Muslim women in television have primarily taken Bibliography on the following forms: oppressed, liberated from oppression, and post-9/11 US patriots and victims. Before outlining these various representations, it is important to contextualize representations of Muslims on television in relation to the Arab-Muslim conflation and in relation to broader Orientalist tropes in US popular culture, particularly in film. Arab and Muslim identities have long been conflated in US government and media discourses, as well as in popular culture.

Five StarsBy Javedan FamilyVery much enjoyed it0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Wonderfully writtenBy B. ClementsA very nice romp through the early part of Omid's life before he started stand-up. Omid Djalili's childhood was unconventional, to say the least. He was raised in a beautiful, chaotic, cramped, colourful and legally dubious guesthouse where his parents fed and watered Iranian nationals flocking to the UK. Over twenty years almost 2000 'cousins' passed through the Djalili's doors and the young Omid played translator to each. Although these years taught him a lot about the rich tapestry of life, this parenting by committee led to a slightly chequered school career which saw Omid taking his A levels a record six times and eventually fake his own university entrance papers.

  • Taking Belief Seriously Seminar
    Governance Unit Taking Belief Seriously Summary of the BBC Governors' Seminar on Religion 13th May 2005 Taking Belief Seriously BBC Governors’ Seminar on Religion Background On Friday 13th May 2005 the Board of Governors held a seminar, Taking Belief Seriously. Chaired by the Rev Dr Colin Morris, former BBC Head of Religious Broadcasting and Controller of BBC Northern Ireland, the seminar explored how the BBC could better reflect the increasing impact of religion and belief on the modern world, with compelling and popular programmes. The focus of the seminar was not on broadcasting for religious audiences, but on how mainstream programmes, from news and factual to drama and entertainment, can directly or indirectly reflect the experience of belief. Its aim was not to critique current output or decide editorial policy, but to debate issues and through that debate help generate creative ideas for future programmes. The Governors’ decision to hold a seminar resulted from two pieces of work they commissioned on the BBC’s Religious output. The reports, both published in full, examined the impartiality of the BBC’s religious output and the performance of the BBC's religion strategy for television, approved by the Board in 2002. The seminar was arranged as an opportunity to discuss the issues raised by the two reports. The Chairman and Board of Governors were joined at the seminar by the Director- General, senior executive and editorial staff and the Central Religious Advisory Council (CRAC). A panel of outside experts was invited to lead discussion

  • Comedy As Freedom of Expression
    COMEDY AS FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION Paul Sturges Dept of Information Science Loughborough University Published in Journal of Documentation 66(2) 2010, 279-293. INTRODUCTION Information Science is a broad, inclusive disciplinary area. If rather than looking to define or delimit it, we look for its driving principle or ethical rationale a good choice would be Article 19 of the UN Universal Declaration on Human Rights. This is a powerful statement on intellectual freedom encompassing freedom of opinion, expression and access to information. Without the freedom to generate, organise, access and use information there would be very limited scope for information science. However, despite this, intellectual freedom issues have never been a substantial preoccupation of the information science literature: freedom has been taken as a given. An obvious reason for this is that in the past the bulk of information science literature has been generated in the USA, and northern Europe. In these parts of the world and historically related countries such as Canada, Australia and New Zealand, there has been such a long, and largely unquestioned tradition of free speech (Grayling, 2007) that the struggles to obtain and preserve intellectual freedom in other parts of the world can easily escape notice. In a globalised communications environment, intellectual freedom necessarily moves to the centre of professional attention and can then become explicitly, instead of implicitly, a central focus for academic study. The present article enters the area of intellectual freedom to examine freedom of expression (more traditionally, but rather unhelpfully, referred to as free speech): the aspect of intellectual freedom that concerns the generation of information and the voicing of opinion.
