The premise
Here’s the bit.
The Bhangra Muffins notice changes at school and turn a conversation about the student population into an elaborate fantasy of a world with a shared Asian identity. One boy praises the prospect of harmony, while the other worries about getting away with smoking and finding opponents for cricket. Their supposed utopia soon reflects familiar family expectations and stereotypes about work, business and authority.

Say it with us
Highly quotable.
What about the cricket team?
Same as now, then?
All shops will be permanently open.
A little extra
Notes from the archive.
BBC Comedy Greats calls the clip “Asia World”; the episode rundown identifies the same opening sketch as the Bhangramuffins’ discussion of interracial breeding.
The rabbit hole continues
One more couldn’t hurt.
More from Goodness Gracious Me.
