And it was such a juxtaposition to where I’m from obviously, because nobody bloody cares. Everybody has a foot in acting, performing or management. When I got to America, I was walking down the aisles and everybody I walked past was talking about: “I have this script.” And I went to the next aisle and the person was saying: “I’m going to get that deal over the line.” The place really is an industry. In the UK, you can be a performer and go about your normal business in a shop. What have you learned from your time in Hollywood? Photograph: Graeme Robertson/The Guardian It doesn’t matter what background you’re from. Myself and Gill Isles, the show exec who’s been with me on the journey so far, are now launching our own production company because we fundamentally want to make people able to tell their stories authentically. Unfortunately, I haven’t seen the next crop of Man Like Mobeens or “Gyal Like Syras” or whatever it is.įor me, part of the reason why we’re doing this again is to let people know that we’re still here and you can still make comedy like this. That working-class girl sat in a council estate in Middlesbrough. These are brilliantly established characters and the dynamics between them are just so clean and funny.īut I’m also a little bit sad because I stopped making the show in 2019, with the intent of the industry going out and finding the next crop of people who stumbled into this like me. We’re going to give them the magic like we always do. I feel excited that the audience who enjoyed it three years ago want it and they love it. What’s it like coming back to the UK for the fourth season of Man Like Mobeen? You’ve spent a few years working on projects in Hollywood. The police sirens and multiple arrests after the gig made it something I probably shouldn’t be involved in again – but definitely one I won’t forget. I wasn’t worried about what it is to be a standup, I just had a couple of funny stories to tell.Ĭan you remember a gig so bad, it’s now funny?Īt a gig in Newcastle, the local thugs were so offended by certain things we said onstage, it caused a massive fight. I didn’t have a manager, I didn’t have an agent, I just had my mates. If somebody said to me: “Hey man, being funny standing outside your local Lidl and going on stage with a microphone are different skillsets” it probably would have stressed me out. I need to be completely honest with you, I have a unique skill which is not thinking about things too much. How was the transition from comedy videos to standup? Lo and behold, six months later, everything had changed. I ignored it though because I didn’t think it would go anywhere because where we’re from, you don’t do this kind of stuff. The first one or two videos got local traction in West Midlands news. I think it got 30 likes, so nothing special. I remember thinking, if five people like it, then that’s maybe proof that we can be funny on a camera. Then one of my mates who I grew up with was like: “Yo man, you need to show the world this stuff.” So it got uploaded on Facebook and YouTube. So that’s how it started, in WhatsApp groups for our friendship circles. Our lives used to be crazy.” He said: “Man you’re so funny, what we going to do about this? What’s going to happen to our lives?” I thought, let’s just start making a couple of funny bits for each other. I’d just had my second little one and I remember a friend of mine saying: “My god, we’re so boring now. I’m going to put 37% of it down to boredom. Was there any intention of it becoming something bigger? “Oh, you’re back.” Louis looks as nonchalant as ever, when Harry is over here freaking the fuck out.Your route to the stage started with funny videos on Facebook. Harry’s face probably looks like a bright red tomato, and if not then the only other option would be that all his blood is going to his dick, because Louis looks like a fucking wet dream.

Not even like standard panties, they’re fucking black and sheer so Harry can see Louis’ full arse and there’s even lace trimming the edges. What he doesn’t expect is to see Louis in their bathroom wearing panties.
